DEMOCRATIC RALLIES
HELD IN NEW YORK.
Speakers Criticised the Statement
Made by Roosevelt.

speakers Criticised the Statement
Made by Roosevelt.
New York, Nov. 6-Final Democratic
rallies were held tonight in half a
dozen places in the borough of Man
haitian, and all of the meetings were
well attended and the audiences were
liberal with applause.
At Minors Bowery theater the
| speakers included Congressman w.
Bourke Cochran and William Sulzer.
At meeting at the Star Theater for
mer Senator Charles A. Towne and
State Senator Thomas F. Grady spoke.
Most of the speakers made attacks
upon President Roosevelt and Gov.
Odell and criticised the Presidents
statement in reply to Judge Parker's
charges.
At the Bowery Theater Mr. Cochran,
in his reference to the President, said
I feel that Mr.. Roosevelt would be
able to say before the close of the cam
paign that he had not allowed a cent
to be accepted from dishonorable
sources, but 1 am disappointed. Per-
sons are startled by the depravity of
it. 1t makes Judge Parker's election
sure. AS much as l want Parker's
of it is the price of discredit of my
citizenship"
Quiet times prevailed at the head
quarters of both state committees to-
day. Gov Odell would make no fur
Their predictions than have already
been made that New York would cast
its vote for Roosevelt for President
and Higgins for Governor.
William Halpin, chairman Of the
Executive Committee of the Republic
can County Committee, gave out a
forecast in which he estimated 154, 900
votes in New York county for Roose-
welt and 1886, 900 for Parker, with about
4000 votes going to the other candi-
dates. Continuing, he says: 81 do not
estimate that the difference between
the vote of Roosevelt and Higgins in
New York county will exceed IL 900.
So that Higgins should receive las, 900
as against POI 900 for Herrick, a plural
ity of $4,000 for Herrick in New York
county.
"If one did not have to keep in
mind the considerable Democratic ma
jorities cast in New York county in
years gone by 1t would be possible to
estimate that the ma jority against
Roosevelt in the county would be less
than $4,000 and against Higgins less
than $4,000. But in any event I can
not see how these figures will be ex-
ceeded."
Democratic Chairman Cord Meyer
was not at headquarters to-day, but
State Senator Patrick H. McCarren,
chairman of the Executive Committee,
reiterated his declaration that Parker
would be elected and Herriek would
carry the state.

JAPANESE MAKING
THEIR FRONT STRONG.
This May Mean That They VIII
Make Flank Attacks.

<AtAAGh@s
Mukden, Nov. 6.--Quiet continues
here. The Japanese are still working
hard. entrenching their front, which
begins to look like a continuous fort.
1t is believed they are preparing Sc
riously to advance, making their front
strong, possibly in order that II may
be held by a comparatively small force
while the heavier force engages In
f1anking movements.
The Japanese have learned by Bit
ter experience not to expect much from
a frontal attack.
There is considerable evidence to in
dictate that the Japanese will make
every effort TO force the Russians out
of Mukden, not only for the moral eff
feet on Europe, but upon the Chinese
as WELL Mukden Is extremely impor-
tant to them as winter quarters.
The japanese continue to receive re-
Inducements. and II is believed by Rus
sian military men that their advance
ing depends only upon Accomplishing
sufficient men.

Carnegie's Hero Fund.

Commenting on Andrew Carnegie's S
five-million dollar hero fund, the Phila-
delphia Inquirer says:
"A man does not offer his life for any
monetary reward, but, prompted by the
best feelings of human nature, he is
proue to rush to the aid of others what
ever the cost. Within a few days we
have seen how a wounded sailor on the
Missouri dragged himself to the danger
spot and saved the ship with its precious
human freight. No material induce
ment stimulates such action. 1t springs
from the best instincts of human ma
ture.
For the very reason that heroism is
unselfish, unprecedented in its results
and SO often disastrous TO the origina-
tor, Mr.. Carnegie has established fund
that has for its purpose the reward OF
bravery and the care Of those dependent
on the fallen brave. This is a PROPOSE
tion which strikes at the fundamentals
of human nature, one which we think
is basic and in its workings ought to be
more helpful than many library build
ings supported at the cost OF the public
This is a stimulus to the soul and not
scheme for getting information. We
hope to see enormous ethical and prac-
tical results from the new institution,
which is supposed TO round out one
hundred millions which Mr.. Carnegie
has given in the last few years to public
institutions of one sort or another.

Kansas Fish Story.

While out rusticating upon the banks
of Chetopa creek, the other day, the
writer of this made on important dis
covery-two Of them in fact. One is
that fish will suck crude petroleum
down in preference to any other kind of
food. The other is that the oily waste
which spoils SO many fish in this vicini-
ty is not acquired by absorption from
contact with the refinery drain south of
town. 1t has been supposed that the
acid from the refinery was responsible
for the bad taste of the flesh of the fish,
because oil always floats on the water,
and would not effect the fish if they
would let il alone. But the taste does
not come from the acid. The fish come
to the top of the water and along the
banks and eat the oil. Up on Chetopa
creek, where lot of oil ran into the
creek from break in the line from
Chanute and Thay er, fish may be seen
lined up along the shore, where a little
oil has collected. hundreds of them and
all sizes and kinds, sucking the OIL down
as if their lives depended upon it. So
most of the streams are more or less
covered with oil in this vicinity it is
hard to find fish that have not become
contaminated. The water under the
oil seems just as pure as it ever was,
because oil and water do not mix, but
the fish have formed the oil habit be-
yond reform. m.-Neodesha, Kan, Sun.
