HE ISFOR EXPANSION
Democratic Governor Of Louisiana
Proclaims New Creed for Party.
STANDS FOR GREATEST NAVY AFLOAT
Says Time Is Past to Limit BOunda-
& ,ries-FOr the Retention of Phil
ippines-DirectIy Opposed to
Bryan and Parker.

New Orleans, Nov 21.-The speech
Of Gov. Newton G. Blanchard at the
banquet of the National Wholesale
Druggists convention will create SEN
sation in national politics, as 1t marks
q distinct breaking away from the rec
ognized creeds of the southern de-
mocracy on many Of the paramount
questions that divide 1t from the re-
publican party. Gov. Blanchard's
carefully prepared utterances on the
questions of an increase in the navy,
the retention Of the Philippines and
the valuable results to the United
States from the Spanish-American
war, are directly opposed to the be-
liefs held and propagated by Bryan
and Parker, John Sharpe Williams,
Tillman, Hill and every leader Of the
democratic party of either wing. Here
are some of Gov Blanchard's strong
declarations:
'"Time was when the fathers Of our
country believed, as did the immortal
Washington, that 1t should be forever
confined to the limits of our continent,
but that time is past. Who is there
now that knows how far to the west
the boundaries of these, our United
States, extend? Who has found the
limits of our country? But we have
not stopped there.
"At one great bound, the spirit Of
our country overlapped 1000 miles Of
ocean and claimed the Sandwich Is
lands. With another leap It reached
the archipelago Of the Philippines, and
bestrides those islands now, like
Colossus. Where is our boundary to
be drawn between the archipelago Of
the Philippines and the mainland of
Asia?
IT stand for the building for our.
selves of the greatest feet that rides
the waves, so that when our country
demands peace the world may know
she has the power to enforce It. Not
to the present, but to the future, do we
address this demand"

"ODD FELLOW IN CROWDp"
How n Mob Bent ON Lynching Me-

Lexington, KY, Nov. 21.-William
Moore, a laboring man, was killed Sun
day by three negroes, who attacked
the white man in saloon. Moore

vided for. He was standing in a sa-
loon talking to two other white men
when the three negroes, Jim Garfield,
John Taylor and Ed Taylor, came in
and with the words, I'VE will clean out
all you white dogs" began firing.
Moore fell without word. Two 9TH
ers escaped by hiding behind post
which was penetrated by two bullets.
Ed Taylor and Garfield were caught
and lodged in jail. John Taylor is a
paroled convict. Sentenced to ten
years for murder, he has served five
years. Quite a crowd is threatening

WAR IN THE EAST NOT Being RUSHED

Chefoo cable office. The Russians,
with the exception Of one man, left
the destroyer. This last man lighted
fuses and blew up the vessel. There
were three dull explosions, which
were scarcely discernible 100 yards
from the place where they occurred.
Almost simultaneously the Rastoropny
sunk and settled on the bottom. A
single spar marks her grave. 1t Is
impossible to SECURE an explanation Of
the action Of the Russians, but 1t is
believed that they were determined
not to allow repetition of the
Ryesitelni incident, when the Japanese
towed the disarmed vessel out by
force.
Message Reaches the Gear.
st. Petersburg, Nov. 17-Advices
from Lieut.. Gen. Stoessel and Rear
Admiral Wren, brought by the Rus
sian torpedo boat destroyer Rastor-
opny to Chefoo from Port Arthur,
have reached the emperor, but have
not yet been made public. The great
Importance of the information is ap-
parent from the fact that the torpedo
boat destroyer was deliberately sacri-
feed in order to get the communica-
tions from the beleagured garrison.
The Associated press learned from
a high general who knows the con-
tents of Gen. Stoessel's message that
all the talk about Gen. Stoessel asking
for instructions to surrender is abso-
lutely false. He said he was not at
liberty to disclose the nature Of Gen.
Stoessels report, but he remarked:
"Only when the last biscuit is eaten
and the last cartridge fired will the
garrison surrender the fortress. This
/ can state positively"
1t is intimated that the report goes
at considerable length into details Of
the recent fierce land fighting, but says
that the interior line of defenses re-
mains intact. Gen. Stoessel believes
he will be able to Withstand the jap
enese assaults for some time to come.
The blockade has been run by a ship
with a cargo of war munitions, food
and hospital supplies. Some war
ships in the harbor have been dam
aged by shell fire, but not seriously.
Many guns have been removed from
the ships and mounted on shore, where
large drafts from the crews are taxi
ing turns in aiding the garrison In
