SENATOR ELK|N@
SOUNDS KEYNOTE
He Makes Speech Before the
Republican State Conven-
tion at Wheeling Today
PARKER WITHOUT A RECORD
Declares West Virginia Can Not Be
eesuiIed Into Giving Up Protection
Even to Secure Vice Presidency for
Favorite son--Labor Committee Wis.
its Roosevelt.

Wheeling, w. Va, July 12.-Unitel
States Senator Elkins sounded the key
note of the campaign in his speech be-
fore the republican convention today.
He said in part:
The republican party OF West Vir-s
ginia is a party Of progress. It stands
ready to move forward and build up,
not pull down; to formulate wise poli-
cies for the people and thereby add
to the glory and honor Of the state.
It has courage to meet fairly and
solve the new and difficult problems
constantly arising in the onward
march Of civilization and good govern
ment, and it never shrinKs nor turns
aside from the great issues
'.The republican party stands for the
principle Of protection. but individuals
differ widely as to schedules in all
great tariff bills. For instance. the
Dingley bill now in force, perhaps the
most perfect piece Of machinery ever
invented for providing revenue and at
the same time protecting American
labor and American industries as
whole, commanded the support OF ev-
cry republican member Of congress-
but it is likely by schedules and SECS
tions there is not a republican member
of either house that would vote for
each separately.
sThe democratic party in its desire
to capture the state, has nominated
for vice president one Of our most dis
tinguished citigens and foremost denl>
.ocrats in the state, but In thiA as n
most everything else, the democraxs
made a mistake. Senator Davis. ~
whom l am so nearly related, ansl fur
whom I cherish feelings Of highest re-
gard, admiration and affection, is st
man of affairs and an experienced
statesman, having served his stsse
creditably In twelve years. With these
qualifications and this fitness. he
should have been nominated for first
place, instead Of a man without a rec
ord and without business or political
experience. West Virginia can not be
used to beguile into giving up protec-
ton and sound money to make Judge
Parker president, even if by so doing
they make Senator Davis vice presi-
dent"

Romance of the Western Millionaire
Comes to lisht-Was Married in
1901.
New York. July 12.--Much surprise
| was caused by the announcement, made
for the first time today. that Senator
William A. Clark married, three years
ago. Miss Anna Il. La Chapelie. his
| ward. This elimination Of a romance
that began nine years ago Is told In the
publication of the following notice:
Clark-La Chapelle--On May 25. 1901
at Marseilles;, France. w. A. Clark to
Anna E La Chappelle, both of Butte,
Mont.
Tardy of announcement it is true, for
several years have elapsed since IN
Marseilles, France. the ceremony was
performed that made the handsome
child Of the western mining fields the
bride of the many times millionaire and
United States Senator. and with the
announcement OF the marriage come
the tidings that it has been, blessed by
the birth of girl, now quite 2 years
old.
Senator Tells Daughter.
Senator Clark informed his daugh-
81.
Rutherford Morris, of his marriage
shortly after his arrival from Europe
in the steamship Teutonic on June 80
| He was then or his way to ST. Louis
to take part in the convention proceed
| ings.
The daughters We're much surprised
when their father made known the
| secret that he has kept so well for
three years. Their surprise was par
ticularly keen because they had never
objected to their father remarrying.
Ii was while in one of the mining
towns where his interests lie that SEN
ator Clark about nine years ago was
present when the miners and their
wives and families were enjoying a
Fourth OF July celebration. There We're
all manner of costumes. gaIdy and
grotesque, worn by the young men and
women, but that which particularly
caught the eye OF Senator Clark rep
resented the Goddess of Liberty. II
was gracefully worn by young mo-
man probably thirty-five years his
Junior Senator Clark made Inquiries,
and learned that the impersonator OF
the goddess was Anna r. La Chapeile.
Taken as Ward.
Senator Clark pursued his inquiries,
He learned that La Chapeue, the father
of the girl, was a French Canadian
physician, who with a wife and their
family had tnrned to the United States
and it's western fields for livelihood.
La Chapelle died suddenly in Chicago
and soon after this event Senator
Clark decided TO extend financial as
sistance to the family, not for Anna
La Chapelle alone, but but for her Wid-
owed mother and the children. he was
introduced 10 Mrs. La Chapelle, and
thus met her children. He recognized
that Anna was girl endowed with un-
usual intelligence.
senator Clark made the girl his ward
soon after this and provided her with
the opportunities for such tuition as ne
considered she should have. 1t was an
education that began in semlnarles
in this country and was finished IN
schools abroad, where the climax came
with the opportunities for extensive
travel.
Mrs. Clark is at present in Paris

There was no disorder In the de-
parture of the first squad of strikers.
While taking measures to be ready,
remembering the riots during the last
great tie up at the yards, the police
professed not to expect trouble for ten
days. indications being, it was
said, that new men will not be put to
work in the packing houses for that
length OF time.
A rise in the price OF meat II was
said, would be the first effect of the
= houses. Stagnation marked the cattle
market, as the packers had warned
the commission firms that there would
be no buying today.
Representatives OF the packers said
the firms had done everything that
could be done to avert the strike by
]. offering to arbitrate before a disinter-
ested body the questions over which
the difference with the labor unions
arose.
No<definite arrangements have been
made by any packers for hiring nom
union men. Five carloads OF cots, how
ever, are being distributed among the
dered last week. when the strike SEEM
ed imminent. Notwithstanding these
preparations, the packers were caught
In measure unprepared. The Sec
recy observed by the union men pre-
vented the packers from stopping ship
merits OF cattle. AS result the yards
were well filled and train loads are arr
irving hourly. The stockyards com-
mission houses at once began wiring
all shipping points advising cattlemen
to hold their stock until further notice.
The packers say there is fresh meat
enough in Chicago TO last about ten
days. There are a few small packing
houses in Chicago not affected by the
strike. but they can supply only in
sufficiently part of the demand.
The banks of the strikers were soon
swelled to a total of two thousand by
employees from Armour's plant. who
walked out soon after their work for
the day was cleared UP.
A hundred girls employed in the label
department of Nelson, Morris & Co.,
struck with the men.
