Speeches Of Insurgents
To Be Used By Democrats

WASHINGTON, Aug 1S.-Speeches
delivered by Insurgent Republicans
in congress furnish large part OF
the matter in the 516-page Democratic
textbook issued by the National
Democratic Congressional. The vol
ume begins with an enumeration OF
the campaign issue and Is concluded
by CONGRESSMAN Hills (Rep) denun-
citation OF the Aldrich-Vreeland cur
rency law. Hill Is the only regular
Republican quoted.
Thirty-seven pages are devoted to
speeches of insurgents. the most
prominent being Senator Delivers
attack on the tariff; the adverse re-
marks of Senators Cummins and La
Toilette on the railroad bill; Congress
man Fish's defense Of insurgency and
speeches by Haugen in opposition to
the tariff law and the railroad bill.
Tariff and the high cost of living
are brought forward as the main issue
and 176 pages are devoted to these
subjects. Champ Clark has the place
of honor with tariff speech in which,
among other things, he said that the
tariff was intended as life preserver
for the Republicans in the campaign"
Republican extravaganza" as an
issue, Ia given forty-three pages, and
the "Cannonist issue" Is dealt with
by half a dozen members OF congress-,
and several disclose the shortcomings
from the Democratic standpoint of
President Taft's administration. The
Republicans are attacked for not max.
ing the law requiring publicity of cam
paign funds more effective. for favor
ing ship subsidy, for failing to pass
desirable labor legislation and are &C.
cused OF showing lack of activity
against the trusts.

HUNTING SEASON,

Good Prospects for the Hunters :
Moose Have Increased.

Bangor, Me-, Sept 30-The deer
hunting season in Maine will open at
midnight tonight and continue until
Dec. Is. Many bird hunters who have
been in the State for the past two
weeks, and others who have come
within the last few days expressly for
the deer shooting, will be ready for
the first shoot, but there will be no
great rush of outside sportsmen until
about Oct. Is, as the weather is yet
warm and the leaves are still thick
upon the trees, while the woods are
noisy under foot, making still hunt
ing difficult. The moose season will
begin on Oct. Is and that also will
attract hunters in greater numbers
than can be expected now.
Reports from wardenS and guides

GERMANS REFUSE.
a
Berlin / Police President
wlI,Noi Tiks : Action
Against Officers Attacking tho
American Correspondents.
Says Newspaper Men Violated the
Regulations During nlots.

Berlin Sept. 3O.-Ambassador Hill.
acting upon Instructions from tho
state department at Washington. called
at the foreign office and requested an
inquiry into the affair and proper ON
cial redress for the wanton assault
made by the police upon Frederick
Wyle, the correspondent Of the New
York Tires. during the coal strikers
rioting last Sunday night. t
Later Herr Won Jagow, in answering
the complaint and appeal for redress
from the English and American jour
nalists, declined to take action against
the officers who made the attack. He
says the correspondents acted cour-
| ageously but violated the police regu-
lations in entering a riotous crowd.
He added he convinced himself from
personal observation that all the po-
licemen acted with praiseworthy en-
| ergy and cool headedness during the
| riots. He expressed lively regret.
however. for the trouble with the
newspaper men.
in company with the correspondents
| of the Reuter- Telegram Co.. the New
York World and the New York Sun.
Mr.. Wyle was watching the police and
rioters from motor car when the
newspaper party was set upon by the
police and painfully injured. Seeming
ly without provocation the police
charged with sabrcs and the news
gatherers were saved from further in
jury only by flight to the nearest first
aid station.
r. Seymour. the British charge daft
flares. has received sympathetically
a protest from the three other newspa-
per men. who are British subjects. He
now awaits instructions from London.
Mr.. Seymour and DR.. Hill conferred
on the matter this afternoon. 1t is as
sumed that the foreign Office will act
promptly. Herr Won Jagow. president
of the Berlin police. appears to take q
cynical view of the affair. Neverthe-
less, it is plain that the correspon-
dents were attacked ruthlessly. While
one of the four called out that they
were representatives of the press. an
ether held up in plain view Of their
assailants a police pass, showing that
their presence on the scene was author
lied.
The only explanation that Won ia
gov has offered is that the police act
ed upon the order Of sorne unknown
hystander.
