TELLER’S FIRST SPEECH. An Address to the Citizens of His Old Miinoin Home. Senator Henry M. Teller delivered his first speech at Morrison, Ill, yesterday. The crowd that assembled was variously estimated at from 2,000 to 3,000 persons. It was the old home of Senator Teller. His mother lives there, with four sisters and a brother. This is the reason why the Senator selected it as the place for making his first speech of the campaign. He leaves today for Chicago, where he will spend the day with the executive committee of the democratic party. He will then go to Grand Rapids, Mich., where he is announced to speak Wednesday. ———+ e+ —___ Transfers of Real Estate. Chalmers B. Wood to Mattie R. Slater, lot 8, 8a. 776; $10. James M.

AMATTER OF MORALS; - Whitelaw Reid Writes to the Ohio . Editors. HE DISCUSSES THE MONEY QUESTION Says There Can Be Only One Side to It. INTEGRITY. IS INVOLVED pase aaa CANTON, Ohio, September &—The fol- lowing letter of regret from Whitelaw Reid to Col. R. B. Brown, president of the Ohio Editorial Association, who are to call on Major McKinley today, has been received: “CAMP WILD AIR, UPPER ST. REGIS, “September 4. “R. B. Brown, esq., president Ohio Re- publican Editorial Association, Courier office, Zanesville, Ohio: “Dear Sir: The remembrance of my birthright among you touches me, and I am grateful to the Ohio republican editors for it, much more grateful, in fact, than for your friendly persistence in requiring a letter when you found I could not come to make a speech. My friend, Mr. Charles Emory §mith, will do the latter so accept- ably that you will nced neither from me. We have had the four years in clover which our friends the democracy promised us in 1892. The people are quite satisfied that they have had enough of it. On the old lines this campaign was already won. Voters were absolutely resolved to go back to the point where they turned off four years ago and get into the path again which from 1888 to 1892 had led them to the greatest and most widely diffused pros- perity this country ever enjoyed. Assert- ing the power of the common people, they put forward as their candidate the man whose very name meant to every one of them the policy of those four prosperous years, and the work was practically done. “Then burst out the Adullamites. Every unthinking or urscrupulous man, that was in distress, and every one that was in debt and every one that was discontented gath- ered themselves together, nct unto Da- vid, alas! but unio Altgeld. They captur- ed the national convention of a historic party and degraded it and humiliated the country by asking the American people to vote that they would not obey the Eighth Commandment. Only One Side to the Moral Law. “Now, when a question is submitted to a Pepular vote people must infer that there are two sides to it, and that they have a right to vote on whichever side their judg- ment or their interest inclines. But there are no two sides to the moral law. No men, no party, has a right to put the Eighth Commandment to a popular vote, to decide through an expression of popular desires at the polls whether this nation shall cheat its creditors by paying its debts at the rate of 53 cents on the dollar, and whether every private debtor shall be at liberty to cheat to the same extent the man who has trusted kim. To propose such a vote and such a decision is itself a crime, but having proposed it the plain people of the country will sustain the great commandment by a vote which will surprise those who would break it. “I hope you Ohio editors will deal with this matter in straightforward fashion and call a spade a spade. Many of our oppo- nents are as sincere as we are and mean to be as honest, but the thing they have done is the wickedest and most immoral public act since secession. To pay the na- tional debt in silver, to pay private debts in silver; to nullify and declare invalid any contract, however freely and honestly en- tered into, for paying gold; and to turn 53 cents worth of silver into a dollar at our mints as often as any silver mine owners at home, er any silver-burdened Chinaman or Hindoo from Asia chooses to bring it to us; the effect of all this is simple robbery. To ask intelligent and honest men to vote for it is to insult them as well as to de- clare that the American people have the right to overrule Mount Sinai at the polls, and reverse the moral law/if they want to. “Dishonesty never pays. There are-a dozen ways of proving it in this case. But first, do make the moral nature of the Proposals clear to the average voter and there should be no more doubt then of the verdict this honest and Christian nation will give than there is of tomorrow’s sun- rise. “Then, if you like, it may be well to go further and show, for instance, that a real nation, not a mere colony or isolated prov- ince, cannot get on with what our New York candidate for governor called_a cur- rercy that can’t stand salt water. We sell now more than fifteen times as much of our products to gold countries as we do to silver countries. Do we want to take the pay for this wheat, beef, pork, cotton, corn, ete., not as now in gold or its equiva- lent, in silver bullion, to te given free coirage at our mints? This becomes a question, not so much of paying silver, but of taking silver. “Is the great American republic to seek to hold toward all Europe such a financial relation as India now holds toward Eng- land, or a worse one? Surely a fresh water currency is only fit for a people cortent with a fresh water commerce., High Prices Work Both Ways. ‘You can make free silver men see, from the financial history of every nation’ that ever tried it, that while making more money does inflate prices, it works both ways. It raises prices for what they have to buy, as well as for what they have to sell. and is apt to raise the former first and highest. The grocer raises his fig- ures long before the day laborer can have his wages advanced, and the laborer never really catches up till the inevitable crash comes, and both tumble together. Cheap money never did cheapen the necessities of life, but it cheapens the men. Look at Mexico, and China, and India. “Silver men can be made to see, too, that making more money Goes not put it In their pockets. The bullion owner may get a hundred times more silver than now stamp- ed into dollars, but he will not be any more willing to give the wheat raiser a single one of them without getting a round hun- dred cents’ worth of wheat for it. An ig- norant vcter thinks that when more metal 1s stamped at the mint he can somehow get a dollar for less than what the open market calls a hvndred cents in value. The real authors of this movement have farther views. What they want is to find some way cf paying something with noth- ing. It is merely the old unlimited green- back fiat craze in a new form. It has been tried at one time or another by nearly every nation, and has always led to ruin. It met its first great defcat with us in an Ohio campaign, led- by an Ohio soldier, whom that campaign made President. This time it will be finally crushed under an- other Ohio soldier; who will become Pres!- dent by the largest popular majority of this generaticn. Vermont points the way.

Labor day was fittingly and memcrably celebrated down the river yesterday. Big crowds of knights, with their wives and children, spent the day at River View and Marshall Hall. The day was perfect, and the outing will long be remembered. At both resorts the committees on arrange- ments had provided interesting events, and during the day the crowds took advantage of the opportunity of exchanging visits at each place, through the courtesy of Capt. Blake and Capt. Randall, who permitted a | ferry boat to make hourly trips between “There has been an ill-considered appeal the resorts. At both places the dancing Pavilions were well patronizéd, and the young people made merry. Severai thousand people took the trip to Marshall Hall; in fact, it was: better pa- tronized than River View. It was because of the interest that attachedito the excur- sion, the receipts from which were to go toward erecting a monument to the late E. J. Rea, a prominent member ‘of the organ- ization. The aquatic sports at Marshall Hall opened with a hydrocycle rapé., The crews were selected from the Eccentri¢ Engineers and the Carpenters’ Union. 'P, L. O'brien and W. F. Moran. representg¢d the carpen- ters, and the engineers plund their faith on Messrs. Kendrick ‘and Caldwell. ‘The carpenters won after aji exciting race.” Mrs. Florence Casey was the only con- testant that showed up for the ladles’ race. She gave an exhibition race. The tub race furnishéd apy amdunt of amusement. There were three contestants, Messrs. Brown, Cooksey and Sizer, Brown won, with Cooksey second. M. J. O'Brien finished first in the half- mile bicycle race, with Lee Bailey second. Great interest was manifested in the 100- yard dash for men. There were five en- tries. H. Glotzbach of the Bricklayers’ Union won easily. Ollie Richards won the 100-yard dash for boys, and T. Fealey was second. John Hines won the wheelbarrow race for boys. The rooster dance attracted considerable attention, and was very amusing. The winners were Mrs. Florence Casey, Mrs. Smith and the Misses Pierson, Carmody, Maine, Bragunier, Fennell, Seaman, Miller and the Misses Lycns. The game of base ball was won by the Tinners’ nine. The score was 6 to 2 Little Miss Young save @ good exhibition of high kicking, reach- ing 6 feet 4 inches. The little lady is but 4 feet 2 inches tall.

THINKS HIM INCORRECTLY REPORPED Don’t Believe He Would Say Any- thing to Create Discord. WHY THE PARTY WAS FORMED The first speech of Tom Watson, deliver- ed yesterday at Dallas, Texas, was read this morning by all the politicians. The orly person to talk about it for pub- lication was Senator Marion Butler, who gave The Star reporter an interview. The democrats had something to say, but not for publication. The opinion frecly expressed was that the speech of the Georgian was not calcu- lated to help him or his party. His threats about beating Bryan if Sewall was not withdrawn are regarded as not the proper talk from a man who professes to be so dead in love with the cause of silver. In- siead of a statesmaniike argument on the issues of the day, the politicians assert that Watson’s speech was a tirade against the democratic nominee for Vice President. It is argued that if he desired the assist- ance of democrats in the south, he took the worst course to succeed. impress upon the country the justice of the Populist claim to the vice presidency, it is. argued that he should have appealed to reason and not to prejud:ce. Do They Approve It? These and many more things are said among silver men of all parties around the headquarters here. No hint is dropped from populist headquarters, but it is be- lieved that the speech has been anything else but pleasing to the managers. It 1s not thought that Chairman Butler would have approved Watson's course in the mat- ter if he had known of 1t in advance. The Pcpulist managers would uphold a moder- ate amount of talk against Sewall, but they would much prefer that Watson should talk on the issues of the day; talk in behalf. of his party and not so much in his own behalf. His performances re- cently, they say, have put him in the shape of a supplicant for the position of Vice President, om the same le as a baby crying for candy. His speeches and his interviews all deal with Tom Watson | and omit all except bare reference io the People’s party. From Watson's standpoint he is bigger than the party. If Watson keeps up his present tactics through Kansas it is believed that the populists there will repudiate him. West- ern populists say he talks as a southern populist and for himself, and hi§ utter- ances do not suit the west. They are for Bryan first and over everybody else. It is said on good authority that Watson's at- titude will lose him the friendship of con- Servative western populists. What Senator Butler Says. Senator Butler was asked this morning by a Star reporter for his opinion of the speech of the Georgian, and this is what he said: “The sentiments in Mr. Watson's speech, as to the justness of the populist conten- tion that the party is entitled to the vice | presidency, are representative of the fecl- ing among the southern populists on that subject. There 1s a strong feeling in the south that there should be a co-operative ticket. I mean by this that there should be a ticket composed of men who fully share each other's views on the great is- sues of the day, and who stand together in every way as representing the masses of the people. In Bryan and Watson there is @ co-operative ticket. It is a better silver ticket than Bryan and Sewall. I believe that half the democrats are satisfied that a mistake was made in nominating Sewall. His nomination was not expected after the platform had been adopted. I think it will be admitted on every side that the populist party is entitled to the vice presidency. am nt prepared, however, to believe that Mr. Watson is correctly reported in several things sent out to the newspapers, For instance, I do not believe that he is cerrectly reported in raying that if Sewall is rot withdrawn Bryan will be beaten, be- cause it is a principle of the people's party to put patriotism above part He certain- ly did not make a threat. McKinley and the gold standard must be defeated. Mr. Watson feels as earnestly about this as American voter can. 1 know that the party feels that ft is entitled to more considera- tion, and I believe it will get it. I don't believe that Mr. Watson will say anything which would create discord or jeopardize the chances of silver in this campaign. I am confident that the populist party can be depended on to defeat McKinley if it is in their power to do so. The people's party was formed not simply for the purpose of putting a new organization in the field, but asa means to advance and enact tain principles into law. Therefore the chief desire of all true populists is to see these principles eracted into law in the quickest and surest way.
