To each subscriber we will send the Republican National Campaign Text Book and all documentissued by the Committee. Help ns achieve a great victory. James S. Sherman, Chairman. P. O. Box 2063, New York. STEEL PASSENGER CARS. The day of the wooden passenger car is going by, if its end is not already at hand. The most convincing demonstration of the superiority of the all-steel car was given in a recent accident on an Eastern road, when a steel coach was the only one in the train to escape injury. The Pennsylvania railroad now announces its determination to make all of its future passenger equipment of steel, and it will be followed by every important railway corporation in this country. Just now the Pennsylvania is providing absolutely fire-proof, non-collapsible steel cars for the New York tunnel. These cars weigh 103,530 pounds, against 84,900 for the standard wooden coach, but it is said that the added weight greatly reduces the vibration and adds to the comfort of the passanger. The new all-steel car has a frame like a cantilever bridge, safety against telescoping being secured by enormous steel girders. No gas is used, all illumination and heat being by electricity, the wires being insulated in heavy metal conduits. The flooring throughout the car and platform consists of an imitation of stone spread over the steel plates of the car while in a plastic state. The framing above the windows is composed of steel plates. The doors are steel plates filled with cork to deaden sound. In short, every possible effort seems to have been made to construct a coach which shall be non-wreckable and non-burnable. American railway equipment and service are the wonder of the world. The foreigner visiting this country for the first time is amazed at the speed, luxuriousness and securiety of our train service, which Is offered at fares much lower than those obtaining in Europe for service of smaller grade The introduction of the all-steel car will be a promise of much greater security and comfort. .No other nation on earth would seriously consider so vast an outlay, but this country is in a class by itself. Just a week ago today the dispatches were telling how Senator Dick of Ohio was a dead man, having been repudiated by his home county. Since that time, six short days, there has been made history showing how erroneous was this view. Senator Dick triumphed in the Ohio convention with the odds against him. All of which goes to show that in politics the element of success very often crops out of conditions of uncertainty. It is officially announced that Thom

as Taggart, Esq., Is not to be disturbed as National chairman of the Democratic committee. Mr.. Bryan says Taggart's case is not parallel with that of Sullivan's and the fact that Taggart Is- accused of having connection with a hotel property that permitted gambling, cuts no figure with W. J. Everybody ought to be satisfied.

Some enthusiastic Republican of Evansville, has offered to wager $2, 000 to $1,000 that Indiana will give a Republican plurality of 60,000. He may be a trifle too enthusiastic but he has figured the general proposition correctly. Mr. Bryan is still ttalking. BRONZE STATUE OF MARTYR UNVEILED Fitting Ceremonies Held at Columbus Yesterday in Memory of McKinley. ENORMOUS CROWD THERE MRS.. LONGWORTH, DAUGHTER OF THE PRESIDENT, PULLED THE STRING WHICH RELEASED THE VEIL. IPubllshers Press Columbus, 0., Sept. 14. With fitting ceremony a bronze statue of William McKinley, the martyred president, was unveiled here by Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, daughter of President Roosevelt. Judge William R. Day of Canton, O., and Senator John W. Daniel of Virginia delivered the addresses of the day. Governor Harris presided at the exercises and Rev. Washington Gladden offered the invocation. An enormous crowd was jammed in Capitol square during the exercises. Senator Daniel represented the South and emphasized the last ambition of the president to see a. reunited country. Judge Day was the principal orator of the occasion. He paid a lofty tribute to McKinley's character. He said In part: It la fitting that with such memorials as this we perpetuate the names and fame of our Illustrious dead. While they serve to recall their character and achievements, they are also object lessons to the living:. How many a youth, as he looks upon the manly face so vivUly portrayed by the sculptor and reads In the groups -which surround this statue the lesson of a noble life, will be stimulated to higher endeavor and more resolute purpose to achieve an honorable sqcSTATUE OF McKINT.EY. cess. William McKinley, boy and man. was a type of the best possibilities of American life. Born neither to riches nor poverty, he was fortunate in his birth and the heritage of his parentage. Descended rrom that hardy, vigorous race which has given so many noble men to our country, he was early taught to revere God and respect the rights of his fellow men. His pious mother, many of whose noble trait found expression in the character of her Bon. hoped he might follow the ministry of the church which was hers, and early in life became his. Although he was destined for a different career, he never forgot or -deraried from the lessons of simple faith and -upright living which this noble woman taught him. hoping that some day h might teach them to other Every day of his life, whether in the quiet of home, on the eve of battle or when rre?sod with burdens seldom borne by man in the gi-eat affairs of state, he quietly and unostentatiously sought help and guidance from on high. Unfaltering ; as was his devotion to his own faith, he had the broadest toleration for the views of others, and freely conceded to all the liberty of conscience which he claimed for himself. He lives in the love of his countrymen. ; His memory grows brighter with the years; the nobleness cf his life, the sublime heroism of his death, shall never perish from the thoughts of men. He lives in the thousands of homes wher comfort and -domestic peace reflect the wisdom of his statesmanship. He lives in the beneficence of his example at every hearth, where j?"cre(Klins generations shall recount the strength and beauty of his character and tell again the story of his life.

Lafayette Home for Indiana Civil War Veterans So Badly Crowded That no More Can be Cared for at the Present. Lafayette, Ind., Sept, 14. (Spl.) Before adjournment today the board of trustees of fhe Indiana State Soldiers home acted on the largest number of applicants for admission to the home in the history of the institution. One hundred and twenty-seven names were voted on, and of these sixty-seven were approved, thirty-five rejected and twenty-five continued for further investigation. The home is now very much overcrowded and if the applications continue to increase in number from month to month, as they have in the last few months, the legislature will be asked to provide additional buildings to accomodate the veterans and their wives who desire to take advantage of the fine home provided for them . Commandant Richard M. Smock said, today, that there is room for no more. He said that hereafter Indiana veterans would be given preference over those who served in the regiments of other states. This order was made necessary by the crowding of the home. The new widows home has relieved the congestion to some extent, but again the buildings are filled to their utmost capacity.

CLOSED FOR TWO YEARS SCHOLARS REFER TO HEAVY ROLE PLAYED BY THE COLLEGES IN THE COMBAT FOR LIBERTY. Publishers' Press! St Petv.. , . . A lav has been published increasing the penalty for refusing to perform military service to six years at hard labor and tho loss of civil rlgtts. The fall recruiting season ha3 begun, and reports already have been received of several attempted attacks upon local military bureaus for the purpose of destroying recruiting lists. An attempt made by the rural police to arrest seven peasants of the village of Lukonitsa, who had been organizing disorders among the peasantry, has resulted in a collisionbetween tha mob and the soldiers. "'Hie latter fired a volley, killing eight persons and wounding 60. At a great "skhodka," or meeting, attended by thousands of students, it was resolved to reopen the universities and begin actual academic work, thus putting an end to the paralysis in the educational system of Russia, which, has obtained for the last two years. The meeting was marked by the same fervent oratory that characterized the previous student assemblies held Feb. 21 and Sept. 26, 1905. The resolution, which was adopted by 1,241 votes to 373, is as follows: "In view of tb.3 fact that an attitude of passive protest is incompatible with a high position in revolutionary activity, and the great role that the universities hitherto have played in the combat for liberty, the students of St. Petersburg find it necessary to mobolize the youth of the land in the capital and other urban centers, and therefore decide that the universities shall be reopened " It has gone out of fashion to boast of never reading ads.
