Senator Davis received an enthusi-

did the venerable Ex-Governor and
Senator Wm.Pinckney Whyte, David B.
Hill, Senator German and Senator
Daniel, all of whom made speeches,
and all of whom, with the exception of
Senator German, will accompany Sem
ator Davis on his tour.
Senator German presided, introduce
ing each of the speakers. In brief
speech accepting the craftsmanship, he
replied to the structures of Secretary
Root concerning the advanced age of
Senator Davis and expressed conf
dence in the election of the Democratic
ticket. He introduced Senator Davis
as the young man."
A Party of Constructionists.
Mr.. Davis said the Democratic party
has been called by its political OPP
ponents party of strict construction

paid them and no policy is more need

recognizes fully the restrictions and
limitations of constructive authority

Assaulted Congress.
Mr.. Davis assailed the last Congress-
for failing to pass the river and har-
Dor bill, and for hurriedly adiourning

parlments by Democrats. After pay
ing nigh tribute to the personality

Hill Tackled Roosevelt.
David B. Hill followed Senator Dav-
is. He began his remarks by severely
-crltlclsing President Roosevelt for ar
pointing his private secretary to the
Department of Commerce for the PAL
pablo purpose of acquiring much val
liable information which might be util-
lied in obvious ways in the campaign
to the political advantage of the par
ty in power" and then making him
chairman of the National Committee to
especially represent the candidate HIM
self.
From that date to the present"
said Mr.. Hill, Chairman Cortelyou
has been diligently employed collecting
campaign funds from the very corpor-
ations whose business operations and
secret affairs he had recently been in
vestigating. The motive for this ex-
traordinary action is scarcely disguis-
ed. The purpose is evident. 1t par

Speaking on sectional and race agi-
tation, he declared that this is still
white mans government, and must
necessarily largely remain So" and
that there is no defense for force bills
or federal election laws.
senator Daniels Protest.
Senator Daniel of Virginia was the
next speaker. He protested strong
ly against the attitude of the Repub-
lican party toward the Philippines and
advocated the independence of the is
lands. He charged that the Smoot in
uuiry in the United States Senate was
postponed until after the election in
order that Utah might be delivered to
the Republicans and criticised the RE-
publican party for its inconsistent rec
ord on the currency. Like the other
speakers, he condemned President
Roosevelt for his action in the recogni-
ton Of Panama, and denounced the
present tariff as depressing.
Ex-Gov. william Pinckney Whyte
made the closing speech OF the meet
ing and was the recipient Of great
ovation. Like Mr.. Davis, Gov. Whyte
is over eighty years of age, but still
vigorous physically and mentally, and
a friend Of Mr.. Davis since his youth.
He paid a high tribute to the char
acter of the vice presidential candi-
date and predicted the election OF the
Democratic ticket.
Mr.. Davis and Mr.. Hill also adj
dressed the overlooking meeting. The
special train conveying Senator Davis
and party will leave here at $40 a.
m. tomorrow en- route through Mary
land and West Virginia towns. The
campaign tour will end at Bluefleld,

FAIRBANKS AND THE TRUSTS.
Republican Party Has Acted Fear
IessIy and ImpartialIy, He Says.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 10.--In a speech at
Omaha tonight Senator Fairbanks dis
cussed the trust question, the substance
of his remarks being as follows:
Trusts may be strong, but the gov
eminent is stronger. There is no COM
bination which is not amenable to the
public law.
THE evolution in our business af-
fairs has been rapid and radical, and
it has been attended with some abuses
which have called for the interposition
of the law.
THE Republican party has sought
in a wise and effective way to re-
strain the abuses which have grown
out of the development. 1t has not
made war on enterprise engaged in
wholesome industry or commerce. 1t
has done practically all that has been
accomplished under national authority
in a way not only to restrain or pre-
vent abuses of corporate power, but
it has effectively enforced the laws
which were enacted by it fearlessly
and without partiality."

Washington, Oct. 1O.-Secretary Hay
and Sir chentung LANG Cheng have
at last begun to lay the foundation
for a new Chinese exclusion treaty and
1t is expected that the convention will

tention to continue I'm full force in the
treaty the principle of the exclusion of
Chinese coolies and the Chinese gov
eminent itself is perfectly willing that
this should be done. But the treaty
will contain provisions regarded as
much needed and sought for by the
Chinese government for many years,
looking 20 a more considerable, liberal
and kindly treatment Of the higher
class of Chinese seeking to enter our
ports.
