HEW YORK POLITICS
Gha'rman of State Republican
Committee Says he will Advise
President to Denounce Action
of Independence League in
Printing Campaign Document,
Publication Referred to Prints
Speeches o* Hearst and Roose
\ velt in Parallel Columns on
J Proper Use o+ Wealth, Chair
. man Thinks this Wrong.
Vk xow York, Oct. 30—Timothy L.
i chairman of the State Re-
V publican committee says he will ad
•A visa President Roosevelt to repudiate
> th" campaign document issued by the
Independence League in support of W.
!\ K Hearst's candidacy for governor.
Woodruff objects to the publication
V in paralel columns of extracts from
the speeches of the President and
Hearst as to the proper use of wealth.
Woodruff said concerning the publi-
/ cation:
"It is certainly hoped that President
Roosevelt, who has to a degree all
along maintained the position that he
could not interfere in iocal politics,
will take up this matter and denounce
the author of the illusion. It was ex
pected all along that some such an
effort as this would be made by Hearst
to influence the voters."
The publication referred to by Wood
ruff. quotes the President's speech at
Oyster Bay, September 8, 1900, when
he is reported as saying that a multi
millionaire is not a harm, but a good
to the community if he appreciates
that he is only trustee for that wealth
and uses it for causes oi goodness.
From ihe speech by the President at
Washington, on July Cth, last, he is
quoted as saying that very wealthy
men may sometimes play a useful part
in life, but rarely are useful, as the
lives which are expended in different
fields from those of money-getting.
To heap riches on riches, the Presi
dent is quoied as saying, is merely an
evil.
Against this ffearst is quoted in a
parallel column as saying there should
be. as far as possible, an equal distrib
ution ol' wealth; that he believed in
organizations that tend to distribute
wealth: that its distribution is as im
portant as its creation and that "one
iav-defying millionaire in jail will do
more than any other single thing to
regulate trust inequality."

the charge of Judge Robert S. Frazer.
Attorney J. Scott. Ferguson, who
made addresses for Hooe, said the
case was the most remarkable ever
tried in Allegheney county.
All he asked from the court and
jury -was what the President of the
United States gives every man, be he
white or black, "a square deal."
He referred to the fact that Hooe's
deposition had not been used in the
divorce case and after reciting the
defendant's allegations of his treat
ment by the detectives, appealed to
ihe jurors to keep in mind the ter
xors of the "third degree," telling
them they might some day be vic
tims of an army of private detec
tives.

have, Miss., dispatch says:
As a result of the production of
"The Clansman" in this city last week
threats were circulated by the whites
that a Klu Klux Klan was being or
ganized to drive the negroes from the
community.
The blacks have formed themselves
into a band of white-caps and already
I started a series of depredations on the
whites.
News reached here from Bear Creek
in Lincoln county that "Bud" Godbold,
a young white farmer, was fired upon
by a negro white-cap, while riding
through a lonely stretch of woods.
His horse was killed, but Godbold
escaped. According to Godbo'd's story,
a white man riding 100 yards behind
him was simultaneously attacked by
the blacks.
The officers have gone to the scene
of the ambush.
The story circulated that the white
people would form a Klu Klux Klan

IKE PANAMA TRIP IS
WITHOUT PRECEDENT
Washington, Oct. 30.—When Presi
dent Roosevelt goes aboard ship next
week and starts for Panama he will be
doing something that none of his twen
ty-five predecessors in the executive
chair ever attempted, and that is to
journey beyond the boundary limit 3
of the United States during hi 3 term of
office. Mr. Roosevelt on more than
one occasion since he assumed office
has shown that he is not the man to
search for a precedent when he ba
lieves that it is necessary to act. But
never before has he so completely
upset tradition as in the case of hi 3
trip to the isthmus.
It has often been stated that the
President must not leave the United
States even for a day. But this re
striction is not imposed by statute. It
is only an old unwritten law which has
been respected by all successors of
George Washington.
President McKlnley emphasized his
respect for this rule on his memorable
tour to the South and West. It was
unofficially announced that he would
meet President Diaz of Mexico, some
where near the boundary of that sister
republic. A controversy as to whether
Mr. McKinley might properly cross
the Mexican line, even for a few hours,
arose.
From El Paso there extends into
Mexico the international bridge span
ning the Rio Grande. Whether the
President would dare to cross this
structure or not was the question that
members of his party asked one an
other. He did not. He went to the
bridge and caught a view of the Sierre
Madre. Halfway across the bridge was
a line. Stepping over this was put
ting fool on Mexican territory. Presi
dent Harrison had ventured as far as
this line ten years before. But Presi
dent McKinley did not so much as
put his foot upon the bridge.
President Arthur was accused of
violating this unwritten law in Octo
ber, 1883, upon a pleasure trip to
Alexandria Bay, Thousand Islands. His
political enemies accused him then of
venturing across the Canadian line
on a fishing excursion. The boundary
between Canada and New York ex
tends to the middle of the St. Law
rence river.
President Cleveland was similarly
accused. On one of his trips to North
Carolina he sailed by the ocean route
past Cape Hateras. His enemies con
tended that he ventured outside the
three-mile limit. According to inter
national law a country's possessions
extend for three miles outside its coast
line. Plying the seas farther than this
is leaving home territory, which,' of
course, President Roosevelt will be
obliged to do in his coming trip to the
south.
NEGRO SHOT OFFICER.
Town Marshall Shot by Negro When
He Was Attempting to Arrest
Dayton, Ohio, Oct. 30. —George Ba
sore, town marshal of Franklin, 15
miles south of this city, was shot and
instantly killed this morning while
attempting to arrest George White, a
negro suspected of being implicated
in robberies there during the past two
weeks.
White was captured after an excit
ing chase through the town, and is
now in jail.
The people are enraged and mob vio
lence is feared.
TROUBLES WITH THE INDIANS.
Great Aprrehension' Over Appearance
of Bar.d cf Crow Indians.
Butte, Montana, Oct. 30. —A despatch
to the Miner from Sheridan, Wyoming,
says that considerable apprehension
has arisen there over the appearance
of a band cf 100 Crow Indians who are
reported to have left in the direction
cf the camps of the renegade, Utes.
What the mission of the Crows is,
can only be conjectured. When the
Crows heard of the approach of the
Gth cavalry they immediately pulled
stakes in the direction of the Utep
as though convinced that the soldieis
meant business.

INDIANS GROW BOLDER.
Say They Will Die Before They Will
Go Back to the Reservation to
Starve.
Sheridan, "Wyoming, Oct. 30. —"We
are going to visit Chief White Cow
Bull of Cheyennes at any cost and
will not be taken back to Utah to
starve. We would rather die first."
is the substance of the answer of Chief
Kannap to the soldiers.
The Indians are getting bolder and
pay no attention to the soldiers. A
fight almost started last night when
an Indian encountered a sentinel of the
Tenth cavalry.
The Indian refused to turn out of his
path and rudely bumped against the
soldier. - Only the intervention of some
cavalrymen prevented a serious en
counter, as other Indians came up.
Later reports from the front locates
the main Ute band in the vicinity of
Moorehead going rapidly toward the
Cheyenne reservation.

Indianapolis, Oct. SO— In order to
counteract as far as possible the in
fluence of Mr. Bryan's recent speech
making in Indiana Vice-President Fair
banks will make a swing around the
circle during the last three days of
this week and will make as many
speeches as can be crowded into that
time. Mr. Fairbanks will be accom
panied by many of the principal Re
publican speakers of the state, among
them Senators Hemenway and Bever
idge, Governor Hanly and several of
the Indiana Congressman. The tour
is planned for a whirlwind finish, to
the state campaign.
Congregational Conference.

churches began a two days' session in
Cincinnati today for the discussion of
missions and the other activities of
the denomination. About 100 dele

Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia.
AND PR
™ fuse if
Salisbury, Oct. SO. —The strike situa
tion of the Southern Railway machin
ists has reached the finale, it is believ
|ed, in this city, for the men who arriv
ed to take the place of the. men on
strike are tiring of being housed, fed,
I etc., in the same building in which they
work, and are leaving their work, num
bers' of them coming to Salisbury on
the street cars yesterday afternoon,
and altogether it is said sixty or more
strikebreakers have given up their
jobs. The machinists say, and the out
look at this writing bears them out,
that the strike will be declared off at
an early date, and in their favor. Two
men who stayed in the shop when the
strike oci'rred were unable to get a
ls~ha.ve at any of the Salisbury' Varl'or
shops Saturday night. This shows the
sentiment in this city. It is conceded
(and this is an unbiased opinion), that
the striking machinists have the long
end of the pole and no matter how
short or how long the contest, they
will come out victorious. A sympa
thetic strike of the 800 or more union
employes at Spencer, is still in the air,
and while all is secret, no "bones" is
made of the fact that all Salisbury
fears a general walk-out of the union
employees at Spencer, the total of
which number something like 1,200 or
1,500. That the Southern officials de
sire to reinstate their old men is not
disputed—in fact telegrams and con
ferences between men in high standing
here and those who have the com
pany's side in charge bear this asser
tion out. Salisbury is looking for a
settlement of the strike at an early
date —possibly this week.
Engineer Jno. P. Wingate, who had
a leg broken in a wreck at Greensboro
six months ago, took out No. 36 yester
day morning, the first run he has made
since his misfortune.
On November 11th Rev. Dr. M. M.
Kinard will formally be installed as
pastor of St. John's Lutheran church,
in this city.
SITUATION IN THE EIGHTH.
Far From Satisfactory to Either Side
—Hopes for Big Democratic Major-
L ity in Rowan.
Salisbury. Oct. zz. —The political
situation in this county and district is
I far from satisfactory to either side.
To sum up the situation in Rowan
county would be this: The Re
publicans expect to lose the county
| but they have hopes of making gains
i —and most especially on the Congres
sional and sheriff tickets. That the
Democrats hope for the usual majority
but fear the Republican claim is no
dispute. As to the Eighth Congres
sional district from a neutral stand
point at this writing it is anybody's
victory. Money generally talks and
| so far not a single bet has been re
corded; this shows how close the dis
i trict is. The county candidates will
be elected, from Democratic constable
; up to the highest officer; but the dis
trict —at this writing it's anybody's vic
i tory. But the Democrats have a cam
j paign outmapped for the next two
i weeks which will eclipse anything In
i the way of politics ever attempted in
1 Rowan, and this county is expected to
i roll up the majority that will overcome
the Republican vote in all the other
counties in the district and give Hack
| ett a majority.
Oregon Club Women.
Portland, Ore., Oct. 30. —Mrs. Sarah
Piatt Decker of Denver, president of
the General Federation of Women's
Clubs, is in Portland to attend the an
nual convention of the Oregon State
federation, which begr.n its sessions
today. Mrs. Decker is to address the
convention tomorrow right on the sub
ject of "The Educational and Philan
thropic Work of the General Federa
tion." Another prominent speaker be
fore the convention will be Professor
Sweetser of the University of Oregon,
who will give a talk on pure foods.
The convention is largely attended and
promises to be one of the most suc
cessful ever held by the club women
on the Pacific coast.
NARROW ESCAPE FROM INJURY.
While out Driving Two Men Meet
Serious Difficulty—Speech by Ex-
Governor Aycock.
Winston, Oct. 30. —Ex-Governor O.
B. Aycock delivered a splendid ad
dress at the courthouse last night to
a large crowd. The ex-governor
discussed national and State issues
in his usual convincing manner and
his remarks aroused much enthusi
asm. Tonight the county candidates
will be at the courthouse. The last
speech of the campaign in Winston-
Salem will be delivered in the court
house next Monday evening, at
which time Governor Glenn Is
scheduled to make an address. The
addresses of Governor Glenn in this
county are awaited with much inter
est by the-leaders of both parties.
The result of the election depends
very much on the kind of speeches
the governor delivers in Winston-Sa
lem next Monday evening, therefore
unsual interest attaches to the
speech.
In the mayor's court yesterday af
ternoon three negroes were convicted
of running "blind tigers" and heavily
fined. Though Winston is what is
generally termed a wet town, never
theless the officers are continually un
earthing blind tigers in the negro
settlements, especially cn Sundays.
Prohibition in this town with the
large negro population that is here
would necessitate a large addition to
the present police force.
Rev. J. C. Kilgo, president of
Trinity College, was here yesterday
returning to Durham from Elkin. Dr.
Kilgo delivered the sermon at the
dedication of the new Methodist
church at Elkin last Sunday morn
ing. The building which cost $12,000
was filled to overflowing to hear Dr.
Kilgo.
While out driving yesterday after
noon Messrs. A. A. Myers and W. P.
Hill had a very narrow escape from
serious injury. Mr. Myers* horse
has been on the race track and has
lots of speed and in addition to that
the animal is very hard to hold after
once getting started. While on Fifth
street yesterday afternoon an auto
mobile containing Mr. Chal Teague
ran past Mr. Myers' horse which was
going at a very lively gait and it is
said the driver gave the mare a free
ieign to let the dhaffeur see that the
auto was not the only fast thing in
town. While some twenty yards
fthead ofthe horse. Mr. Teague's hat
flew off and he started to turn his
machine arcund to recover his head
gear. He ran his machine directly i
across the road and the horse, bug
gy and Messrs. Myers and Hill went
over the machine. Messrs .
Hill and Teague all went to the
ground although none of them were'
seriously hurt. The seats were torn;
from the auto though there was not
a scratch on the mare, which stopped
a few yards from the wrecked ma
chine. The buggy was not damaged
a particle. It was necessary for a j
wagon to haul the auto to the shops.

Chicago, 111., Oct. 30. —The wedding
bells will ring only for those happy
young persons who succeed in pass
ing the State inspection test if the
ideas of the American Stock Brood
ers' Association are carried out.
The association has turned for the
4
moment from the consideration of
cattle, sheep -and hogs to the culture
of humans, and it will be the ulti
mate business of the committee of
Eugenics, just appointed to keep an
eye for ill-mated pairs.
A marriage censorship may result
if tne inspection idea proves prac
ticable. The immediate object of
the committee as explained yester
day by Prof. Charles R. Henderson,
of the University of Chicago, is to
rpread information in regard to the
ill-effects of the marriage of defect
ive persons, including "imbeciles,
idiots and feeble-minded."
Insane persons, confirmed drunk
ards and moral degenerates are to
be restrained in- colonies and kejft
from marrying.

LAYS CHARGE TO SPSTE.
Fairbanks Denies Wrongdoing in Ex

Warren, Mass., Oct. 30. —Wilson H.
Fairbanks, the member of the Lewis
and Clark Exposition and Jamestown
Exposition commission from this state
against whom charges were made by
James M. Perkins, secretary cf the
Lewis and Clark Exposition committee
said today Mr. Perkins' statements
were due to personal spite.
Perkins charged that Fairbanks, who
was chairman of the Massachusetts
committee at the Lewis and Clark Ex
position, at Portland, Oregon, declined
to give him access to the records, and,
instead, had induced the stenographer
to sign the vouchers. The matter was
called to the attention of Governor
Guild, so that affidavit says, and later
to, the attention of Attorney General
Malone. District Attorney Moran de
manded that the matter be turned
over to the Boston police and his of
fice for further action.

Arraigned.
New York City, Oct. JO. —The tlireo
young men who were arrested Satur
day night for preaching anarchy at a
meeting of the Progressive Lyceum, at
106 Forsyth street, were held for jury
bonds of SI,OOO each by Magistrate
Steinert in the Tombs Police Court to
day. The prisoners are Abraham Edel
son, 20 years old, of 37 Stanton street;
Max Moscow, 26 years old, of 1745
Bathgate avenue, the Bronx; and M'ax
Rubestein, 25 - years old, 235 Moroe
street.
The affidavit charged the three with
"openly, -wilfully,, and .deliberately
justifying the assassination of William
McKinley, who was at the time of his
assassination President of the United
States."
After the case was disposed of and
