THE PRESIDENTS LETTER
On Gompers and Labor a Bad One for
Democrats to Tackle.

st. Adams, W. Va, Oct. 22.-Willian.
j. Bryan, in brief speech here today.
made reference to the letter of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, published today, in
which the President criticized the po-
sition of Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Gompers
on the labor question. The Demo-
cratic candidate was explaining the
things which he said the Republican
platform did not promise to do and
touching on the labor question he
said:
1.-THE Republican platform does not
promise a reconciliation of labor and
capital. In fact they now recognize
that their antagonistic position on
labor organizations has lost them the
labor vote, and they recognize that so
fully that they have entered upon the
denuncation of the man who stands
at the head Of the labor organizations
and are trying to show that he does
not represent the men who elected
him to Office and who have been en-
dorsing the position that he has taken
in this campaign"
New York, Oct. 22.-Speaking of the
letter Of President Roosevelt, demand
ing that Mr.. Bryan declare himself on
the labor questions of the day, Ma
tional Chairman Mack said today that
il there was any labor man in doubt
about voting for Bryan the reading Of
the Presidents letter would convince
him that he should cast his vote for
the Democratic ticket Mr.. Bryan will
answer the Presidents letter said Mr.
Mack.
The chairman said the report from
Washington that the Democrats had
three times as much money as the Re-
publicans. had no basis in fact. Mr..
Mack said:
Our committee has learned that the
Republicans are asking prominent
Democratic manufacturers for funds
but they have been refused"

remedy that ought to be enforced against

have it abolished merely because it has

Because Candidate Debs had arranged
two months ago for Il meeting in Evans
vile tonight and had rented the largest
hall in the city, the parade and meetings
of Judge Taft had competition. Judge
Tafts principal effort was made at the
Grand theatre, where he addressed
meeting for men only. Previous to this
he spoke to a large crowd from the steps
of the State National Bank and follow
ing the meeting at the Grand he ad-
dressed an audience which filed the
Peoples theatre.
While the parade was arranged more
as an escort, there were marching clubs
in line from Kentucky as well as Indiana
towns and a large contingent from Evans
vile.
The principal speech of the candidate
was confined to the subject of labor, in
which he reiterated the ideas he set forth
earlier in the day.

Mr.. Shaw said that most of the fires
now burning were in the vicinity of
