THE REPUBLICAN PARTY'S
OWN ANSWER

In his address to the republican ma
tioal convention, Temporary Chairman
Burrows referred to the republican vic
tory in 1904. and then asked: I'm view
of this Endorsement, it becomes pertinent
and 0pportune to inquire, what has the
republican party done in the last four
years of government control to forfeit
public confidence or create distrust in
its capacity for future administration
For this question the Rochester IN. "
Union and Advertiser finds II striking
answer. This is the answer which the
Union ond Advertiser takes out of the
mouth of Senator Burrows own party:
I'm the broad effect of its policy it has
precipitated panic, blighted industry
and trade with prolonged depression,
closed factories, reduced work and
wages, halted enterprise and crippled
American production. Every consider
alton of public safety and individual
interest demands that the government
shall be rescued from the hands of those
who have shown themselves incapable
of conducting it without disaster. -

Remarkable Feat Of q Busuue

Bernardo Tristant, Il Basque about lS
years of age, stopping ut the Overland
T.Jtel, had rather Il remarkable expert
encc yesterday afternoon. For the last
week or SO, he has suffered from II
nervous disorder that affects his brain.
He gradually grew worse and yesterday
afternoon he was taken to the Boiling
hospital for treatment. When he
reached the hospital, he was put to bed,
but did not remain there long. He
watched his opportunity and when the
nurse was ont of the room he jumped
through the window and ran toward
the Indian camp on the hill. All he
had on was an undershirt and Il pair of
socks. The undershirt he threw away
as he ran.
The nurse saw him us he was going
through the window and gave chase,
but Bernardo was too fleet for her.
She then gave the alarm and Sheriff
Clark, Constable Oudcrkirk and about
thirty other men started in search of
the runaway. They secured the hills
until shutdown without finding any
trace of him.
Between - and 10 O'Clock last night
Bernardo appeared at his room in the
Overland hotel and demanded his
clothes. When he got over his excite.
mcnt he told the men at the hotel that
after leaving the hospital he made his
way to the river and went intothc water
and remained there until it became dark.
IIc then left the water and made his WAY
to the front Of the Overland hotel and
to his room withou: being seen. All he
had on was II pair of socks.
II hardly seems possible that q naked
man could make his way from the Boil
ing hospital to the river and then to the
Overland hotel without someone seeing
him. but such is the case. How he did

morning. but when the reporter called
about II o'clock hc WAS in bed. He told
his friends ut the hotel that 'tlicy put
some medicine into his chest" at the
hospital and he became frightened and
left. lie also said that no one at the
hospital talked Basco and as he could
not understand English. this added to
his fright. He thought they were try.
ing to kill him.
