said:

II need not tell you that I was de-
lighted with the nomination at St
Louis. I opposed the nomination Of
Parker because he did not stand for
what we had been fighting for in Ne

CHICAGO. Dec. 19.-F. r. Pettigrew
Of Sioux Falis. s. D. who for twelve
years represented his state in. the
United States senate. passed through
Chicago today from New York, on his
way home. Mr.. Pettigrew was a guest
at s O'Clock in the evening. During
his term Of service in the senate he
was a member Of the committee on in

any party can be organized to secure

said ex-senator Pettigrew.
Need Of a Radical Party.
1t shows that what is needed is a
radical party, representing the pro-

with predatory wealth, and insisting
that those who produce shall enjoy the
fruits Of their labor, and not have
these fruits taken away by legislation

There is one section of that mes
sage on which l would like to say a
few words, and that is his request for
control of the railroads. This is weak
for the reason that this power was
given to the interstate commerce COM
mission more than twenty years ago
by act of congress, and that power mas
been lost, according to the evidence
by act of congress, but by the decisions
of the courts. These courts are in
variably composed of judges who
have been in the service of the rail-
way corporations. and who, therefore,
as judges, continue to serve their
masters.
The railway rates in the country,
if given alike to ALL could be very ma
terially decreased if the government
owned the roads and the great combi-
nations that now plumber the people
would find serious competition from
individual enterprises if it were not
for the enormous discrimination given
by the railroads to the trusts. which
is equal in itself to big profit, and
goes against all individual COMPETE

WOUND UPON LOOMS HEAD.

London, July II. Reports to
both the Press Associations and the

suspicious on the part of local officials

clean, and it is thought that it was
inflicted before death. 1t is surmised
that Mr.. LOOMS body fell into the
water near the Eddystone Lighthouse.

Not Allowed Citizenship.

Japanese and Chinese women mar
rying American men do not become
American citizens. Such is the dictum
of Secretary Hay just made public
through correspondence between the
Secretary of State and United States
Minister Conger. at Picking, China.
According to Secretary Hays in
depreciation of the statues only white
women marrying United States citi-
zens acquire the citizenship Of their
husbands. This is of especial i'm
portance at this time, when SO many
American soldiers and other citizens
of the United States are marrying
native women in the Far East. All
children born of such unions, how
ever, acquire the citizenship of their
fathers at birth. Consequently chill
dren of Chinese blood, if born OF
American fathers, may enter the Uni
ted States.
Secretary Hay was called upon to
interpret the statute by cases in Han.
kow where American men married
Japanese and Chinese wives. In re-
plying to questions from Mr.. Conger.
Secretary Hay replied:
GAS we construe this act, it confers
the privilege of citizenship upon won,
en- married to citizens of the United
States if they are of the class OF per
sons for whose naturalization acts
of Congress provide. The previous
naturalization act existing at the time
only required that persons applying
far its benefits shall be free white
person."
