Is Qratory a Drawback?

The great orators have not been the
most fortunate aspirants for the presi-
dency, says the Boston Globe. Webster
Clay. Douglas and Blaine were idolized
by their followers, not only for their
abilities and personal traits, but also
for their persuasive powets of sceech.
Horace Greeley, candidate of the DEm-
ocrats and Liberal Republicans in 1872,
was not a notable orator, but was none
the less an effective talker. He made
1; speaking tour in the latter paSt of
tile campaign, and. although his position
was an anomalous one, he acquitted
himself with credit. even if he was over
whelmingly defeated. Tilden, who in
his free soil days made speeches, OBJ
tanned his maj. cry by his pen, not by
his tongue. Grant, who was called the
silent man because he could not make
a speech when he first became a can
didate, learned to speak very we'll in
public, his speech for Garfield in 1880
being a good example of his develop
lnent in that direction.

Friends of Abilene Man at
Transmississippi Congress
Are Urging His Endorsement
for Secretary of Interior.
THE PARCELS POST.
Resolution Favoring 1t Turned
Down in Committee.
Contest Likely to Be Carried to
Floor of Congress.

San Francisco, Cal, Oct. 9-Instal-
lation of officers occupied the open-
ing hours of the fourth day of the
Transmississippi congress today fol-
lowing the presentation of a report
by the committee on resolutions. This
committee had been busily engaged
ever since it's appointment on the first
day of the session sitting the great
mass of proposed resolutions that
have been presented. Several sharp
battles have occurred, particularly
that over the parcels post resolution,
which was adversely reported by the
subcommittee to which it was refer
red. A fight for the adoption of the
resolution despite the committees veto
is expected when 1t is brought up
before the congress.
Another resolution which will be
presented and in which great interest
is taken, is one urging the next presi-
dent of the United States to appoint
western man as secretary of the inter
ior. The Kansas delegation is strain
ing every nerve to have the congress
endorse J. B. Case of Abilene, Kan,
former president of the congress for
the post and there appears to be a
considerable movement among the
other delegations in the same direc-
ton. This resolution will come be-
fore the congress tomorrow when the
last of the big batch of resolutions will
be acted upon. 1t is expected that the
contests of the present session will
come at that time.

COPIED THE ROLLS
Pension Lists i'm Topeka Off ce
Copied.
Claimed Names Are to Be Used
for Campaign Purposes.
METCALF In DARK.
Doesn't Know Why Names Were
Secured.
Always Before Requests Had
Been Refused.

The Democratic state central COM
mittee has made a discovery and it $
causing considerable excitement. 1t is
that the Republican national commit .
tee is having the pension rolls copied
1t is supposed for campaign purposes.
This work has been completed and
today $4,000 names were forwarded to
the Republican state central commit
tee in Missouri for the use of the COM
mittee in that state. In the past tho
pension rolls have been held sacred AMI
the government has protected the old
veterans from the mail order houses
and other institutions which have
sought to prey on them.
Only once have the rolls been copied
and that was for the exclusive use 11
the National Tribune, a newspaper
published in the interest of the old
soldiers Time after time attempts
have been made to get copies of the
pension rolls but these attempts have
been blocked by orders from the COM
missioner of pensions in Washington.
When Grover Cleveland was president
and George w. Click was pension agent
at Topeka an attempt was made to Sc
cure a copy of the list.
The request was met with prompt
and stern refusal by Pension Agent
Click and the matter was carried 10
Washington and finally to Grover
Cleveland VINO lIn1QoOldtcly ptdSCO his
stamp of disapproval on the move. Sew
eral attempts have been made since
that time to secure copies OF the rolls
but always without success. 1t is salo
that the order which made 1t possible
for a copy of the rolls to be made,
came directly from Vespucian Warner
commissioner of pensions in Washing
ton. The list contains 10000 names.
though many of these are of WIDOWS OF
soldiers and sailors. The force of clerks
and copyists which has been at work
for the past week in transcribing the
nension rolls has scattered to the four
winds with the stamp of approval on
their work.
Metcalf Doesn't Know.
When asked concerning the charge
that the pension rolls were copied for
the use of the Republican national
committee Wilder S. Metcalf, pension
commissioner, said: Il do not know
why the rolls were copied but I have
understood that the names were want
ed by a man in Washington but L was
not informed for what purpose.
"The work was all done by outside
parties with one exception. One OF our
stenographers worked on the list put
that was after hours and had nothing
to do with the work of this once. l
was informed by the authorizes IN
Washington that permission to copy the
rolls had been given providing that the
work would in no way interfere with
this office.
HAs it did not granted the permls-
sion requested and the work was DONE
though 1 do not know the purpose IN
convinp the rolls or what use is to be
made of the names secured. l think
that only a partial list of the roiis
was copied There have been similar
requests in the past which have been
refused on the ground that the copy
ing process would interfere with the
work of this office

ON EDGE FOR GAME.
Aggies Expect to Win From Il. L.
Tomorrow.

Manhattan, Kan. Oct. 9.-The foot
ball game between the Agricultural
college and Kansas university at Law
renee tomorrow is the talk of the
town today and a large crowd from the
city and college will attend tomorrow
to root for the local collegians and
help win the game. The sentiment
here is that K. S. A. C. will win from
Kansas and it will be a sorely disap-
pointed lot of students if the game is
not won.
The Aggies this year are stronger
than last and Kanass is practically at
a standstill. In the Aggie team there
whole back field is composed of vet
erans and they are faster and harder
than ever. With Hunter at quarter
back, Christian at left half, Croyle at
right half and Randall at fullback, a
combination is formed that will have
little competition. The Aggies line
is heavier and fiercer than in former
wears. Heinrichs is back at center,
Gingeny will have his old position at
left tackle and Ostlund will again
make the al1-Kansas guard.
The lineup for tomorrow will be:
Heinrichs, center; wallace. left guard;
Gingeny. left tackle; McCollum, left
end: Ostlund, right guard; Root. right
tackle; Cowler, right end: Hunter,
quarterback; Christian, left half;
CoyIe, right half, and Randall full
hack. Whipple, johnson, Seve, Spear.
Sims and Bates will act as substitutes

Lawrence, Kan, Oct. 9.-Friends

gathering in Lawrence for the thirty
seventh yearly meeting, which began
in this city today at the old Quaker
meeting place in East Lawrence. The
conference includes all of Kansas,
Missouri. Oklahoma, southwestern
Arkansas and part of Nebraska and
will bring to Lawrence for the re-
mainder of the week between 700 and
1000 visitors
This year the Friends have been
very fortunate in having some of the
most prominent leaders of their
denomination here for their conven-
ton. Among these will be Nathan
and Esther Frame, two of the best
known Friends evangelists: Lutte
woodward of Fountain, Ind; Clark
son Henshaw, an evangelist, and Mrs
Hanna Bailey of Winthrop, n. 7. E.
Stanley, ex-president of Friends uni
versity at Wichita, is here and will
be clerk of the meeting.
