The word "slave," which is happily

Russian "slava,' means glorious, and
is the title of that race which subsumes
the Russian people. But when the Ger

L. r. Stockwell, for twenty-fi FIVE
years one of the most popular actors
and theatrical managers on the Pacific
Coast, is gradually losing his sight
while lying confined in an Oakland
hospital, suffering with a complica-
tion of painful Affections. The sight
of one eye is almost gone, while that
of the other is being lost as the re-
suit of a recent operation on the side
of the patients face.
In the days of his activity Stock
well started many talented actors on
the road to success. Among these were
Maude Adams. Blanche Bates and
Florence Roberts. The news of his
affections has stirred the sincere sym
pathies of many friends of the man
who has swayed the emotions of a
thousand audiences, but who now
seems doomed to be forever shut out
from the light of the world and to pass
his old age in pain. Stockwell has a
record for deeds of charity and kind
ness during the days of his prosperity
and now his friends are proposing to
give a benefit performance for him in
one of the Oakland theaters.
1t is believed that by furnishing
Stockwell with financial aid and thus
taking from his mind much worry
that now burdens it his general health
Will improve and such sight as he still
possesses may be preserved. Accord
ing to present plans the benefit per-
formance to be given him will be held
at Ye Liberty Theater. Oakland, on the
afternoon of Friday, November 2. The
use of the theater has been generously
donated by Manager Harry Bishop.

HEARST SAYS. mTvs FALsE.v
Claims Murphy's Accusations Are Mere
Campaign Triclkeries.

OGDENSBURG IN. W, Oct. 1S.-W.
r. Hearst was tonight shown the Asso-
ciated Press dispatch setting forth
Charles F. Murphy's statement that
certain representatives of the Inde-
pendence League had demanded the
withdrawal of the league candidates.
Mr.. Hearst said:
about as much weight should be
given to this statement by Mr.. Murphy
as would be given to a statement by
Woodruff. In many instances the
league has Endorsed Democratic cam
didates. On the other hand, in many
places the league has nominated inde-
pendent candidates for the Senate and
the Assembly, and in some places for
Congress. It has made independent
nominations where Democratic candi-
dates did not appear to be of a char
acter to carry out the principles to
which the league is pledged, and in
some other cases to give adequate rep
resentation to labor, the independence
of which one or the other of the
parties has not satisfactorily recog-
nized. Where these candidates are in
the field they are likely to be elected,
and consequently 1t is natural that the
managers of either one of the old par
ties should seek to oppose them by
every campaign trick or discreditable
method. For instance, Fitzgerald, the
ielteT-cdTrlsT, VINO lS iuiiAlh5 Aoi h~oA-
gress In Brooklyn on the Independence
League ticket, has been informed by
the administration that he must retire
or be discharged from position that
he has occupied for years, and In
which he has won many service stripes
for long and faithful work.
"I imagine Murphys vague charge
is campaign roorback. If he has any
reasons to sustain such charge it is
his duty, as of all American citizens,
to administer the most singing rebuke
possible to the guilty parties. But If
he has no such evidence, the statement
should react on its author.
II sincerely hope the Grand Jury
will investigate fully, SO that complete
justice may be done. I have complete
confidence in the integrity of the In
dependence League, and I consider this
attack as a campaign falsehood."

STRAUSS OPPOSES HEARST.
Noted Hebrew Leader Shows Sins of
Editor Candidate.

NEW YORK, Oct 18.-Oscar s.
Strauss, the most influential Hebrew
politician in New York, has written a
letter to the publishers of the Jewish
Daily News. in which he gives his rea-
sons why he is supporting Hughes and
the reasons why he is opposing Hearst.
The Jewish Daily News is supporting
Hughes and in retaliation Hearst has
started a Hebrew daily newspaper on
the East Side. In keeping with his policy
pursued in Buffalo and other cities.
where he threatened to start opposition
dailies in case the Democratic news
papers did not support his candidacy.
Strauss says: II am against Hearst
because one day he pillories Murphy
and the next day he receives from him
a nomination for office.
Because he pretends to be opposed
to corporations and yet, in order to
escape the responsibility of personal
acts and to avoid taxation he has placed
his newspapers under triple armor
of corporations, and finally transferred
them to New Jersey in order to escape
taxation, liability and responsibility.

cally for years, by every means that
malice could invent, endeavored to stir
