LTS o This ta by & Paper net ken from | VOLUME LXXX.—N 115 SAN FRANCISCO, WEDNESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 23, 1896. PRICE FIVE CE VOTERS G0 10 CANTON Producers Journey to Greet the Champion of Protection. FARMERS ARE SICK OF FREE TRADE. They Do Not Believe That the Unlimited Coinage of Silver Will Cure All Iils. ONE THOUSAND NEW YORKERS ALSO IN LINE. Men of All Classes Cheer Major McKinley as H: Expounds the Truths of Republicanism. CANTON, O=ro, Sept. 22.—Three dele- gations called on Major McKinley to-day and he addressed them all. Despite a drizzling rain that continued throughout the morning and a strong northwest wind that blew cold during the afternoon, the enthusiasm displayed was unabated. The Holmes County farmers were the first to arrive. Major McKinley spoke to them in part as follows: Six years ago free trade was to be the cure {for all our ills, free trade was to be the panacea for all our troubles. Well, we have now for four years enjoyed partiai free trade in the United States, especially in wool, and what effect has it had upom the woo'-growers of Holmes County and other wool-growing coun- ties? You know better than I can tell you. Now, it is free silver—iree silver is going to cure all our ills. Why, my fellow-citizens, it doesn’t make any difference how free silver is to be coined in the United States you will not get one dollar of it unless you give something for it. [A voice “That’s right,” sand applause.] 1f we had mints iu every State of the Union and in every county and in every city, ana the silver of the world was brought to these mints, silver would not be any easier to get for you than it is now. And, besides, in this country we do not propose to have a dishonest dollar. [Great applause.] We propose to have the best of everything that’s going. We’ve got the best country and the best men and we propose to continue to have the best money. [Great ap- piause. This is another thing, my fellow-citizens. This year the peovple mean to put at rest the question of their honesty, which was never doubted either at home or abroad until put in controversy by the allfed parties in this politi- cal contest. I say allied parties—the ome a Democratic party assuming an old name, the other a little older and falsely claiming to be the peop’e’s party. It is to the credit of the country that the time-honored leaders of one of the pearties have indignantly repudiated those who have assumed to question the pub- lic honor in the mame of Democracy. [Ap- plause.] The people in November will repudiate the other part of the combination for assuming the role of dishonor in tneir sacred name. [Ap- viause.] The people have no patience with those who would violate the plighted faith of the Nation and stamp its obligation with dis- honor. They will not tolerate repudiation of publicorder or private dealing. They will.not countenance the clipping of the coins of the country, and they will never consent to clip- ping the currency in any form it may be pro- posed. [Applause.] The contest should be settled this year that no party can hereafter slarm the business worid and shake public confidence by the proposition to scale our debts, either public or private. About 2 o'clock a delegation to the num- ber of 1000, from Cattaragus and Chautau- qua counties, New York, arrived by a special train of fifteen coaches. They were met by the Canton mounted troop and a reception committee and escorted to the McKinley residence. Among the towns represented were Jamestown, Randolph, Carroll, Frewsburg, Lakewood, Watts Flats and Panama. : Major McKinley, bowing his acknowi- edgments, then addressed the crowd as follows: My fellow citizens, it is especially gratifying to me to welcome to my city and home citizens of the great Empire State of New York. Itisa proud thing to be a citizen of the first and greatest State in the Union, but it is prouder s:ill to be & citizen of the mighty American Nation. [Great cheering.] Your call at any time would bave been most welcome, but your coming so far on such an inclementday to testify your devotion to Republican principles 1s, indeed, & most impressive and significant act. It is difficult to realize—and I sometimes think that the country does not realize—that as immense as the grext resources of the coun- try are, still New York is the first State in both the value of her farms and farm products. [Applanse.] Your farmers, therefore, are quite as mnch interested in the proper settiement o1 the free silver, tariff and reciprocity issues in this campaign, which in importance dominate all others, as the farmers of any other section of the country. The attempt to inflame the passion of the West and South against the East is therefore but & mischievous and unpatriotic effort to arouse prejudice and hatred against men of their calling, affected by the same causes and feeling the same business depression as those which disturb and harass the whole country. [Applause.] Ihave no sympathy, my feliow- citizens, with a cause based upon hate and passion. Itis beneath the aims and purposes of patriotic freemen, and I am glad to note that it receives no encouragement from the sturdy citizens of New York. [Applause and cries of “New York is all rignt.”] How strikingl”/the names of the illustrious Hamilton and the Empire State of New York are inseparably connecled. We cannot think of the great events of‘our history without at once associating them together; and we can- not recall any example of like nature so con- spicuous unless it be the inseparable associa- tion of Washington and Jefferson with Vir- ginia ana Lincoln with Illinois. [Applause.] No msn of his time left & more lasting impres- sion on public legislation than the eminent leader in New York, Alexander Hamiiton, who more than any one else secured herratification of the Constitution, end than whom we are more largely indebted than to any other citizen for our protective tariff system, which he always steadily supported, and for our ex- cellent monetary system. [Aprlause.] We have heard a great deal in this campaign about the doctrines of our fathers. Hamilton favored both gold aud silver as money, though he preferred gold alone himself, and the Gov- ernment of the United States entered upon the use of both. Hamilton announced the great fundamental principle when he said: “There can hardly be a better rule for any country for & legal tene der than the market ratio,” In other word every coin should contain enough metal that when melted it would be worth just as much s when it is stamped as money, the bullion or market value always to be the same as its legal or money value. [Applause and cries of *‘He was right.”] This was the doctrine of Hamil- ton and Jefferson. This has been the unde- viating policy of the Government under every administration and has been the seitled policy of all the great parties of the country from the beginning ot the Government. By the act of July, 1890, commonly known &s the Sherman law, we insisted upon putting into law the doctrine of Hamilton—the parity of the two metals must always be sacredly maintained. [Applause.] The representatives wrote into thai law—for both branches of Congress and the President were in the hands of the Repub- liean party—a solemn pledge, which is as bind- ing an agreement between the Government and the people as was ever adopted. Here is the language: “Itis the established policy of the United States to maintain the two metals (gold and silver) ata parity with each other upon the present legal ratio, or at such ratio as may be established by law.” This was the act of the Fifty-first Congress, passed by the Republican party for the pur- pose of maintaining the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, but never to give silver the greatest possible use as money, and for that purpose providing for the utilization of substantially the full product of the American mines, (Applause.) This is not the only dec- larution of recent years in support of the Ham- iiton ides of their parity. The Fifty-third Congress, elected in 1892, nnd Democratic in both branches, with President Cleveland as chief executive elected by the Democratic party, also recognized the doctrine of the arity. ¥ President Cleveland was so convinced that the coinage of silver was becoming a peril to the country that he called Congress together in 1893, and Congress, at his earnest solicita- tion, proceeded to repeal the purchasing clause of the so-called Sherman law, and in do- ing this wrote into our public statutes this ex- pression: “‘And it is hereby deciared to be the policy of the United States to continue the use of both gold and silver as the standard money, aud to coin botn gold and silver into money of equal intrinsic and unchangeable value, this equality to be secured tnrough in- ternational agreementor by such safeguards of legislation as will insure the maintenance of the parity in value of the coins of the two metals and the equal power of either dollar at all times in the market and in the payment of debts.’”’ This was the act of the Fifty-third Congress under President Cleveland, an act by a Democratic Congress and a Democratic Pres- ident, approved by a Democratic admistration and indorsed everywhere by the Democratic press, and, as I believe, by the masses of the Democratie party. It is true we, 85 Republicans, can take satis- faction in the fact that it would not have passed the Senate except at the earncst sup- port of the Republicans, and none more promi- nently than Senator Bherman himself. But the Democratic party was solely responsible for legisiation then, and ction bound the members of the party strongly to the support of honest money, as the Fifty-first Congress had committed the Republicaus of the coun- try to the same doctrine. With what bad faith, therefore, with what disregard for the right, for justice and honor, can any citizen now say that the Governmentshall enter upon any settlement of our debts on & scheme of coinage the confessed result of which would be to destroy the parity between dollars, drive gold from circulation and reduce the value of siiver and paper doliars in circulating nearly one helf? Hamilton and Jefferson, Jackson and Lincoln, Grant and Cleveland never taught a doctrine so periious as that. [Great applause.] 3 The people of the United States will never adopt so discreditable and dangerous & course, nor will they fail to brana it with their con- demnation whenever an opportunity is given them through the ballot. [Cheers.] The idle talk about the “dollars of the fathers and the prin- c’ples and men of 1776” will do no harm, but 1t will never convince the houest citizen that Hamilton or Jefferson or any other of our re- vered fathers or patriots ever viewed with toleration any scheme of dishonest finance, or contempiated for an irstant the idea that the Unitea States wou!d cheat its people in its momey or repudiate any of its obligations, made eitber by expressed terms or implication. [Great cheer- ing.] Free silver means free trade. [Cries of “0f course, it does!"] Suppose you could pay the duty with a 52-cent dollar, would youn not reduce the protection you now have almost one half? My fellow-citizers, do not be deluded. No matter how much money we have or may have in this country, there is but one way to get it ana that is to give something for it. [Applause ana cries of “That’s right.””] What we want just now is somebody who wants what we have to give him. [Cheers.] Labor cannot wait. The capital of the workingman is in his strong right arm. [Tremendous cheering.] If he does not use it, just that much of his capital is gone and gone forever. [Remewed cheering.] -The papitalist can wait on his divi- dend, but the workingman cannot wait on his dinner. [Greatlaughter and applause.] And there is nothing so well calculated to injure lzbor in the United States as & depreciated currency. [Cries of “That’s right, mejor, hit them hard.”] Iwant to read what Webster #aid March 15, 1837, in your great State: “He who tampers with the currency robs labor of its bread. He panders, indeed, 10 greedy capi- tal, which is keen-sighted and may shift for itself, but he beggars labor, which is honest, unsuspecting and too busy with the present to calculate for tne future.” The prosperity of the working'classes lives, moves and has its being in an established credit and a steady medium of payment. All sudden changes destroy it. Honest industry never comes in for any part of the spoils in that scramble which takes place when the currency of & country is disordered. Did wild schemes and projects ever benefit the industrious? Dia violent fluctustions ever do good to him that depends on his daily labor for his daily bread? [Great applause and cries of “No, no.”] Cer- tainly, never. All these things may gratify greediness for sudden gain or the rashness of strong speculation, but they can bring noth- ing but injury and distress to the homes of patient industry and honest labor. [Great applause.] Three cheers were again given for Major McKinley when he had concluded, and the nominee went through the ordeal of ‘shaking hands with the entire com- pany. At4o’clock the last delegation of the day arrived. It filled ten coaches and was composed of 600 members of the Mc- Kinley clubs of Elkhart County, lnd. Major McKinley said: Icannot forget as Istand in the presence of an Indians audience tbat it was your State that produced that splendid soldier and states- man and illustrious President, Benjamin Har- rison [tremendous applause], whose adminis- tration for four yearsof the Government of the United States has hardiy a parallel in the his- tory of our country. Honest, strong, wise, pat iotic, American—an administration that stood by the great doctrines of the Republican party and that never turned its pack upon the glorious old stars and stripes and the men who sustained them during the four years of civil war. [Applause.] Weo would be glad to be back in those four years under the administra- tion of President Harrison, years of highest and greatest prosperity to the American peo- ple, when every shop was oven, when every factory was running, when every busy, thriy- ing city of this land was sctive in its enter- prises and in its industries. It has not been 50 in the last four years, [Cr1es of “No, you bet it hasn’t.”] You remem- ber that in 1892 the campaign was -filled with glittering promises; everyihing good was to come to this countryif we would only turn the Republican party out of power and put the Democratic party in. Free trade was to re- lieve us of every ill or evil that had ever set- tled upon this country; protection was & robbery, was unconstitutional, was a fraud and ought to be repealed, and that if that party Wwas only given power in this country they would repeal that law, and then we would enter upon an era of prosperity the like of which we had never known before. And the people put that party in power, and the splen- did prosperity we have had since you know all about. [Loud laughter and applause.] We are not asking too much, my fellow-citizens, when we ask for'an American policy that shall Pprotect the American people in their occupa- tions and their employment, are we? [Loud cries of “No.”} The people of this country never wanted a chance to vote 8o badly in their lives as now. [Applause.] And under our form of govern- ment it willonly be about six weeks from to-dey until from one ena of the country to the other we will have that chance—and how will you improve it, my fellow-citizens? [Cries of “Elect McKinley.”] Isay that it is not very much to ask that we restore the American sys- tem to tkis country—it is nobody else’s but ours—and if we do mot make it what we want it, it 1s not our fault, and I think the true policy of the peopleof this country is to pro- tect the men who owe allegiance to that flag first, the stars and stripes, and who will fight, aye die for it, if need be, to preserve it. [Great cheering.] And so 1 think the protective prin- ciple is settled in the way I have pointed out; and in the way of putting it into public law you will have & chance to settle that next No- vember. [A voice—*We will give you a chance to settle it,” and laughter and applause.] L8 R LIKE THE MILK SICKNESS. Senator Thurston Unable to Find Any Silver Sentiment Among Farmers. CHICAGO, Iun, Sept. 22. — Senator Thurston spent part of to-day at Republi- can Nationel headquarters, leaving in the evening for Grand Rapids to continue his stumping tour. In regard to the talk of silver sentiment among the farmers, the Senator said that wherever he went it was like the milk sickness—in the next coun- ty—and he had not been able to find it. Senator Shoup returned to Idaho to-night to continue his work for the Republican National ticket, and 1ncidentally to be on hand when the second Btate convention of the silver Republicans is held next Sat- urday. The Senator said: “I learned by a telezram from Idaho that a new convention has been called by Dubois. I think the bolters will substi- tute the fusion nominees for their own on the State ticket, and if they do that I claim the supporters of McKinley and the St. Louis platform have tne better right to call themselves Republicans.” W. 8. Haggard of Lafayette, Ind., the Republican nominee for Lieutenant-Gov- ernor of Indiana, dropped in from a stump- ing tour. In the ninety-two counties of Indiana, Mr. Haggard said, there were only twenty-five which would give a Democratic plurality, and in each of them there would be Republican gains. Colonel Harrison G. Otis, editor of the Los Angeles Times, revorts an improve- ment in the California situation, and adds: “The political outlook is propitious, and there are unmistakable auguries of victory in California, notwithsiznding the fact that the silver sentiment was very strong a few weeks ago,” After speaking in Burlington, Tows, Oc- tober 5, Senator Foraker will go to the Pacific Coast, where be will deliver nu- merous addresses, and en route he may stop in Nebraska, Wyoming and Idaho to speak, ——— Diamond Match Stock Sola. CHICAGO, Iin, Sept. 22.—The post- poned auction sale of 700 shares of Dia- mond Match stock held by Henry Clews & Co. of New York took place at the Real Estate Board bere to-day. There were two bidders for the stock, it being finally knocked down to Frank N. Gage at $130 a share. The board of directors of the Dia- mond Match Company held a meeting this morning and the resignations of the Moore brothers were offered and accepted. SR Officer K{lled by a Tramp. OMAHA, NEsr.Sept. 22.—N. A. Craig, City Marshal of Table Rock, Nebr., was killed this morning by one of two tramps whom he sought to arrest as suspected postoffice burglars. AWED BY THE GUNS Strikers Restrained From Further Violence at Leadville. GREAT CAUTION OF THE MILITIA, No Chances Taken During the Approach to the Scene of Trouble. LAWLESSNESS TO BE PROMPTLY SUFPRESSED. Citiz>ns Sworn In to Assist the Troops in Driving Out Ail Tough Characters. LEADVILLE; CoLo., Sept. 22.—In spite of the continued manulacture of rumors, the camp remains remarkably quiet. The militia are here and in camp in the base- bail park near the Denver and Rio Grande depot, while details continue to guard the threatened points of attack. No disturbances occurred during the day. Tne absence of the president and secretary of the miners’ union is still noted and commented on, and the former boastings of the strikers as to what they wouid do when the militia should come to Leadville are no longer heard. The senti- ment of the camyp has found voice in favor of law and order, and the reputable citizensare now no longer alraid to express their opinions. There is consequently a feeling of safety in the city. The delay of the special train bearing the First Regiment from Denver, with guns, cavalry horses and supplies, last night, was due to extreme caution exer- cised by the officers and the railway com- pany. It appears that at every station where the train stopp'd wild ramors were repeated, and the approach to Leadville was made with the greatest precaution. A flat car in frontof the forward engine contained a detail of artillerymen and three gatling guns, oly were trained abeaa snd on each ng the. engine wasa caboose loaded with ‘sharp- shooters. Between Malta and Leadville, a distance of six miles, occurs a hilly country covered with spruce trees, offering excellent refuge tor riflemen, who could pick with com- parative safety the heads in the moving train below. General Brooks had received word that trouble was Lo be looked for at this point. The train was brought to a standstill and three companies of infan- try under command of Major Verdeckberg marched through the cut deploying skirm- ishers across the horseshoe and approach- ing rapidly the city. At 8 o’clock the three companies, in lines of four, marched through the streets to the Rio Grande depot, where they waited until the appearance of specials. The men to the total number of 650 slept in the carsall night. A detail of guards was thrown ont and a picket line encircled the track for several hundred yards. The presence of 900 well-drilled militia- men with gatling guns and a troop of cavalry has had a most salutory effect both upon the miners and the timid citizens. ' An incident occurred this morning which quickly indicated the character of the State militia. As Colonel Hogle, Who was attacked with pleurisy last night on the train, was being escorted to the Vendome Hotel early this morning by Trumpeter Charles Lendhon of .the First Regiment a striker insolently sought to pick a fight, calling Lendhon a name and sneering at him. The trumpeter waited until the colonel was in the hotel and then chased the striker with his musket down the street. The City Council held a special session this afternoon and, inspired by the changed situation, took a decisive stand to suppress lawlessness hereafter. A large number of prominent citizens will be sworn in und they will be officially in- structed to hunt out all tramps and 1dle men of no value to the community and drive them from town. In this course the militia will be asked to assist. The City Council bas located several saloons and boarding-houses where arms and ammunition have been cached, and it has been decided to makea clean sweep of both the lawless element and their arsenals. The Emmett mine will be immediately started up, and the Bison and Little Johnny will soon follow. This will test the situation and fully settle whether the union will continue to destroy property and endanger lives with dynamite. oty g pis Gy MARTIAL LAW DEMANDED, Citizens of Leadville Have No Faith in the Civil Officers. LEADVILLE, Coro., Sept. 22.—At a meeting of the Citizens’ Committee to- night it was decided to make a request through the militia here to Governor Mec- Intyre to declare martial law. Adjatant- General Mb)ses conversed with the Gov- ernor over the telephione relative to this demand. The citizens of Leadville have lost contidence in. the Sheriff and his deputies, in the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen, and even in the civil courts. They declare that no punishment is dealt out to offenders, as numerous recent events show, and they believe the only way to suppress the desperate characters oi the Miners’ Union is through martial law and military courts. CRAZED BY LONG WATCHING. John Daniels, a Wealthy Oklahoman, Kills Himself in the Presence of His Afflicted Wife. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sepw 22.—John Daniels, the richest man in Guthrie, O. T., committed suicide to-night by shooting bimself in the presence of his wife. Dan- 1els went to Guthrie from Lincoln, Neor., four years ago. He was worth several hundred thousand dollars. His affairs were in excellent condition and his do- mestic life was happy. During the past summer his wife has been very ill with typhoid fever. Two weeks ago his son was stricken with the same disease and for severai days Mr. Daniels has been threatened with the fever. 1t is supposed that mental derangement from long ‘watching and approaching illness is re- sponstble for the suicide. Both Mrs. Dan- iels and the son are now very low. FROST NIPS THE CORN. Considerable Injury to Crops in Middle b and Western States CHICAGO, ILL., Sept. 22.—The Govern- ment crop report to-day says: As many crops have been secured the heavy frosts over the Northern States during the latter part of the week caused little damage. In Iowa, however, the effects of the heavy frosi, following pro- tracted rain and moist weather, proved unfavorable to the late corn, which sus- tained some injury in Ohio, Kentucky and Michigan, while ripened corn in Icwa has been unfavorably affected. Except in the Southern States, where drought continues, the general condition of the soil for plowing and seeding of winter grain is excellent, and this work, which in some States has been delayed, has been pushed rapidly and is now well advanced. In Michigan, Indiana and Illinois early aovlvl? grain is coming up and is looking wel DYALTY THEIR BATTLE-CRY Opening of the Regular Republican Convention Yesterday. THOMAS D. RIORDAN ELECTED CHAIRMAN. All Delegates Present and a Tempo- rary Organization Effected Amid ~ Much Enthusiasm. CROWDS OF PEOPLE UNABLE TO GET INTO THE HALL. Harmony and a Willingness to Work for the Best/Interests of the Party Char- acterize the Session. The regular County Republican Conven- tion took the preliminary steps yesterday toward regular organization, and ad- journed, after appointing temporary offi- cers and standing committees, until 8| o’clock this evening. All the delegates were presentin the Auditorium when the meeting was opened. There were no proxies or stuffers allowed, thus taking it out of the power of one man or any set of men to control votes of absentees. The galleries were filled with stalwart Republicans, and about 200 were obiiged to stand out of doors, there being no room for them even in the aisles. Chairman Manwaring called the meet- ing to order, and after announcing that he would entertain nominations for tem- porary -cheirman —~recognized - Jobn M. Chretien. La i Mr. Chretien said: Gentlemen of the comvention: I propose to place in nomination a gentleman who has lived ‘not only 1 tnis City for the entire time of his life but wes rearea in the district which he represents in this City. He is a Native Son, a lawyer who stands high in the legal oroies- sion, a gentleman of acknowledgea executive ability, who has the good will of tne commu- nity, and who will honor us if we will put him in the chair to preside over this convention. I the-efore beg leave to name the Hon. Thomas D. Riordan. A delegate, whose name was not given by the chairman, said that Mr. Riordan was that brilliant combinatiou of political truth known as & good Republican. CHAIRMAN MANWARING HON. THOMAS D. RIORDAN Opening the Regular Republican Municipal Convention at the Auditorium. On motion of Maurice L. Asher the nom- inations were declared closed. J. A. Stephens moved that the nomina- tion be made unanimous, and it was so ordered. Mr. Riordan was greeted with a round | of applause as he took his position on the platform. He said: Gentlemen and members of the convention: Itis wholly unnecessary for me to state how sincerelv [ thauk you for the honor which yon have conferred upon me to-day. I desire to say that those who nave. known me intimately have known me during my entire life as a bovy and 1sa manand they know how deeply und sincerely I appreciate this honor and the courtesy you have extended to' me. Ido not cousider the time appropriate for any discussion of the many issues which con- front us during this campaign, both National and local. We have met here on important business, not only of the convention, but of the Republican rl!ty. whieh we represent, But I desire simply to say of my efforts to th members of this convention that re. officer can successiully confrol the artions 4 body like this or can carry out the dictates of parliamentary rales and. procedure &nd preserve harmony in its ranks unless the ‘members of the convention work in sympathy and harmonious!y with him and extend to him taeir cordial support. Ibeg of you, members of this Bepublican convention, the Republican Convention of the City and County of San Francisco— Here the speaker was interrupted by an outburst of cheering which lasted for several minutes. When it had subsided Mr. Riordan proceeded : I beg of you to extend to me during the deliberations of this convention your cordial supj ort, and in return I shall consider every member of this convention, no matter what his political, social or business standing m:y , 8s & Republican, and all entitled to equal rights and equal privileges on the floor of this convention. 1shall, as long as I am able to preside here, extend alike to every member of the conven- tion an equal degree of courtesy. I trust that that spirit of harmony will prevail and that we may extend to each other the bond of political good fellowship, that we may present to our constituents a ticket which will be not only & credit to us but an honor to the City.
