APPEAL TO FIRST VOTERS. J has been in power during these years Under the caption, "Is This Your .of marvelous growth, and we can at First Vote?" the Indianapolis Sen- least bring proof that we have not

thud of yesterday explained to first voters why they should not vote for Theodore Iioosevelt for president. The Sentinel, which is the State orpin of the Democratic party said: "If this is your fust vote for presidential electors you' owe it to yourself and to your future carefully and seriously to consider with what party vVou make your first affiliation. It has heen claimed by the Republicans that President Roosevelt will command the support of a large majority of those voting men who will this

year exercise their first suffrage in a 'presidential election. We do not believe this is true, but at the same time we know the tendencies of youth and the things which appeal most strongly to the ardor and the energy of those who have just reached manhood. As a private citizen, as a man in unofficial walks of life, Mr. Iioosevelt possesses many of those

qualities which appeal to the sympa thies and imagination of young man

hood. He has courage, dash, pictur-

fsmiesnoss. enenrv and ambition.

These are admirable traits in the

xio individual, but as a first voter

von should ask yourself if they are

sate qualities in the radical extent to which they are developed in Mr. Roosevelt's character in a president of lite United States to whose daily nets are attached" consequences of tremendous importance to millions of people. Look over the record of President Roosevelt and see for yourself how his impetuosity, ambition, his self-will, his disregard of constitutional limitations and of the safest and soundest traditions of, the republic ha-ve disturbed the whole country and have shocked and alarmed the soundest statesmen in his own party.' Then ask yourself if you can afford to let y"r sympathies .with impulsiveness, with physical courage and with dashing and picturesque .way of doing things lead you into supporting fr president of the United States a man who has demonstrated an inability to take a broad, se: rene and judicial view of great national problems. He is apparently unable to curb his military ambitions and to recognize the force and authority of those traditions of administration established and observed by the fathers of the republic. And evidently he can not discern those constitutional distinctions which should be- clear and apparent to the eye of the statesman. Also the first voter should ask himself if he desires to give support to an administration of extravagance, of aggression and of militarism." 'Think if you can, dear reader, of anything more absurd than the advice the aged Sentinel gives to the first voter. In the first place the personality of the president is eulogized. And in the next place his ability as a president is ridiculed. Think of the present administration as one of "extravagance, of aggression and of militarism." The foreign policy of President Roosevelt, like that of President McKinley, has been marked with .honesty and fair dealing. Thev have made more treaties than r -n$y other two pi-esidents, and., the s&ne. conclusion certainly is that we stind today in independent, though aijbicnble-relations to all the rest of - ! ...-. .... t the 'World without an "ally l and without an enemy. j3ecretary of State4 John Hay in a recent speech, said :" " " " 'Victory affords no parallel to the vast and increasing prosperity which this country has enjoyed under Republican rule. I hasten to say we do aot claim to have invented seedtime and harvest, and industry and thrift.

We are a great people and success is

prevented it and this is no slight honor for a party to claim. I will not at this moment speak of the important acquisitions of territory Ave have made, which render us in many ways the predominant power in the Pacific. But out of the territory we already possessed, fourteen new States have entered the LTnion. The census of 1S50 gave us 23,000,000 population the last one, 7G,000,000. The number of our farms the total of our cultivated acreage has in

creased fourfold. Our corn crop is five times what it was; our wheat crop, six times. The capital invested five hundred millions to ten billions; five hundred millioms to ten billions; where it employed less than a million artisans, it now employes more than five millions; and while the number of workingmen has increased

five times, their wages have increased tenfold. The value of manufactured property is thirteen times what it was when the Republicans of Mich

igan met under the oaks. The real and - personal wealth of the country has grown in this amazing half cenfrom seven thousand millions to ninety-four thousand millions. Our railroads have grown from a mileage of 16,000 to one of 200,000. Our imports and exports have gone up by leaps and bounds to the same monstrous proportions. And finally, let us hasten to say, as the other side will say it for us, instead of the

$47,000,000 which supplied our modest needs in 1850 we now collect and

. pend some $700,000,000 annually. I

can- only add what Speaker Reed replied to a Democratic statesman who complained of a i billion-dollar congress: "Well! this is a billion-dollar country.

"Of course our opponents, avIio

have got far enough from the men and the events of the great war period to admit they were not without merit, will say for they must say

something "that Ave have fallen aAvay

from that high level. Now, I am

Grieved to confess that I am old

enough to haA'e seen something of the beginning, as well as of the present,

of Republican administrations, and I

venture to say that no eight years of

government in our history have been

purer from blame or have conferred

greater benefits upon the country than the eight years of McKinley'and RooseA-elt AA-hich claim your approval

today. I need not hesitate to refer to it, although I have been associat

ed with both administrations: so lit

tle of their merit is mine that I may

speak of them Avithout false modesty.

Our national finances have never in our history been so wisely and suc

cessfully administered; our credit

never stood on a basis so broad and

so strong. Our two-per cents, command a premium in all. markets no other country , on earth can say as much. We paid abroad the other day

fifty millions' of .gold 'in a single ex

penditure made necessary by our enormous increase in every element of national growth is collected with'5

the utmost ease and expended with

perfect honesty. Our protective sys

tem, loyally and intelligently carried out and improved in the last seven

years, not only fills our treasury Avith

the means of national expenditure, but has carried our industries and

our commerce to the height of pros- ' t i . -

tions between, labor and capital, always, a subject of deep concern -in Democratic governments, we have improved both in the letter and the spirit. How could it be. otherwise when labor knOAVs that McKinlej and RooseA-elt have watched over its interests as a brother might, and capital knoAvs that its rights will be sacredly guarded so long as it is true to its duties? As to our place in the AA-orld, it has simply followed and naturally complemented the steady improvement in our domestic condition. A country groAving so fast must have elbow room must have its

share of the sunshine. In the last

seven years, without aggression, Avith

out undue self-assertion, Ave have

taken the place that belonged to us.

Adhering with religious care to the precepts of Washingtaon and the traditions of a century, and avoiding

all entangling alliances, professing friendship to all nations and partiality to none, McKinlej' and Roosevelt have gone steadily forward protecting and extending American interests

everywhere and gaining, by deserving it, the good Avill of all the world. Their advice has been constantly sought and sparingly given. We do not covet the territory nor the control of any other people. We hold ourselves absolutely apart from any combinations or groups of poAvers. We favor no national interests but our oAvn. In controversies among

our neighbors Ave take no part, not even tendering good offices unless at the request of both parties concerned.

When our advice is given, it is always on the side of peace and conciliation. We haAe made, it is true, great acquisitions, but neAer of set purpose nor from greed of land. In the case of Hawaii, the will of the people of those islands coincided Avith the important interests Ave haA'e to guard in the Pacific. In the Samoan treaty

we freed ourselves from a useless and dangerous entanglement, and in place of an undesirable condomonium Ave gained possession of the best harbor in the South Seas, retaining, at the same time, all our commercial rights in the archipelago. The diplo

macy of McKinley and Roosevelt has been directed principally to our present and future interests in the Pacific, on whose wide Chores so fauclfo't the world's Avork is to be done. They haAe constantly kept in view the vast importance of that opening fieJdof our activities. The "long negotiations'

ing to present to the people in di

cppos1tio"!t to Republican policies and hence there is dullness in the campaign. In other Avoids the Democrats put up no tight whatever,' then how can there possibly be any lively interest in the campaign? Eight years "ago and four years ago Bryan with his calamity tactics stirred up some excitement but there is not even Bryanisifl to whack, at iioav. As the Chicago Chronicle says: "It is the business of the outs to force the fighting ami supply the excitement. The ins are Avell enough satisfied Avith the situation. The outs do not attack with any spirit and they avoid exposing themselves to fire as much as possible. -Therefore there is no fighting or excitement. This explains the stupidity of the campaign."

STRANGERS

Were Not On to the Actions of the Horse. . Much amusement Avas caused in Tenth street A-esterdaA In' two Strangers trying to catch the horse Avhich daily goes alone tAvo and from work and usually uses Tenth street. The horse is Avell known to residents of Richmond as each morning he goes north on Tenth .street, makes the round trip at noon and comes home again at night. He is always fully hariiessed and no one eA-er accompanies him. Yesterday two strangers saw the Jiorse and thinking that it had broken loose from somewhere

they endea ored to catch it. Mr. Horse Avas like a number of human beings Ayho persist in stealing his kind, he Avould not be caught. The strangers tried hard for about fifteen minutes to catch the horse and then gave it up in disgust'. After alluding his Avould-be captors for some

time the horse Avent up the street and

then calmly turned around as if to srive them the merry ha! ha! The

actions and habits of the horse Avere then explained to the two strangers

and thev readih admitted that the

joke Avas on them.

for the 'open door in China ;''flie steadfast fight Ave made for the integrity of that ancient Empire; -..President McKinley 's attitude throughout

the Boxer troubles, so severely criticised at' the time and so splendidly approved by the result; the position President RooseAelt has since held and uoav holds in regard to the neutrality of China in the present AA'ar haA'e all been dictated by one consistent policy, of taking care that pur interests receiAe no detriment in the Pacific; that while Ave Avish no harm to any one else, AA-e shall see that no damage is done to our people, no door is shut in our face."

NURSING MOTHERS " A richer milk than milk " is good food for nursing mothers. Scott's Emulsion is the rich cream of cod liver oil, and contains ten times as much cream as milk does. . The nursing mother must eat with the purpose of producing good, nourishing milk for her baby. A little Scott s Em'ulsion is often a very wise addition to her daily diet. If through nervousness or weakness her milk is a failure. iScott's Emulsion will help make it a success. The baby gets the benefit, too, when the mother takes Scott's Emulsion. The same remedy brings new strength and nourishment to both. VV11 send vow a sample free upon request. SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Peil Street, New Yrk.

BRYAN STORY

Belated by a Traveling Man ,in a Local Restaurant.

A trayeHigisalesman at lunch in a Richmond restaurant yesterday told of (an incident that happened' in his personal experience during the campaign of 1R96.. ' "I Avas-ia member and officer of aDemocratic campaign club at my home in Illinois," he said, "and Ave A'ery much desired to secure the services of our popidar candidate for president, W. J. Bryan, to speak for the cause in our town. We solicited him and his secretary replied in due time that the term for a night speech by Mr. Bryan Avould be $500.

We thought this a little exhorbitant,

but hustled around and succeeded in raisings$40Q,-and "could by no means

of perseverance increase .the amount,

so we telegraphed Mr. Bryan to this effect. . Back came the answer that he must have the full $500 or the engagement would-be declared off. .. "It Avas declared off," said the traA-elittg'rnah in concluding the story "and I with many others of the club concluded it would be best to vote the Republican ticket and ' we did. We thought a, man as small and mean as this as candidate for president ought neA'er to be elected.. Bryanism and Democracy in general may be said ta be very much below par in our town ever since the affair happened."

REGULAR MEETING . ' , Of Elks Held Last Night at the . - . ;. '? .' - - Lodge HalL The local - lodge of Elks held its regular meeting at the lodge hall last night. It Avas decided .to start' the winter dancing and card season one Aveek from next Thursday. -These

social evenings wilj be tinder the sam

arrangements as they - Avere last year. Next Thursday night ' two candidates Avill be initiated into the lodire.
