ONCE GREAT PARTY NOW DEGENERATED William Randolph Hearst Bitterly Scores the Democrats. TOOL OF CORPORATIONS.

STANDARD OIL FINDS IT CHEAPER TO TAKE STAND FOR DEMOCRACYFIGHT TO CONTINUE UNTIL ELECTION. New York, Oct 17. Before an audience that packed Sooper Union amphitheater to the last Inch of breathing epace, William Randolph Hearst hurled a Philippic tonight against the democrat party In the state. He uncovered the hypo critical conceit of Chanler and laid bare to the public gave plain truths of the campaign that brought about the nomination of Chanler as the democratic candidate in the state. It was Mr. Hearst's first volley in the campaign of destruction against the corrupt boss controlled machines of the 6tate that is to last untdl election day. Mr. Hearst said in part: My Friends: Conditions make a new party necessary, prevail in every state in the union. In studying the Standard Oil situation and other conditions most serious and threatening to our republic, I have found but one difference between the democrat and republican tools of criminal interests the single difference is the fact that the democrats are the cheaper. Senator Foraker, republican was paid by the Standard Oil over $44,000 for the services he rendered. Senator Bailey, democrat was gotten, boots and breeches by the Standard Oil for barely one tenth that amount Senator Foraker was loaned by" the Standard Oil fully $500,000. Senator Bailey was loaned less than one-fifth that amount. Senator Bailey would probably claim that his failure to repay the $8,000 he borrowed raised the scale of his remuneration. I say it merely lowered the measure of his morality. Every where I find the democratic ; party a tool of corrupt corporations to ' be as servile as . the republican tool and more squalid as willing as the republican tool and less expensive. So that Standard Oil support of the democratic party In this campaign, is largely a matter of economy in business. There has never been in the nation an election in which the degeneration and demoralization of the once great democrat party, has been as obvious and as absolute as in this election. There has never been an election in New York where so many dangerous and discreditable elements have united under the degraded banner of a once pure democracy, in one Jast rush for power and peace and spoil. Kern is Scored. The Indiana democracy may claim the notable distinction of having placed upon the National, ticket a man whose only notoriety is his association with Tom Taggart's gambling institutions. But the New York democracy boasts the proud privilege of having made the preservation of race track gambling the one dominant issue of its - disreputable campaign. United States Senator Fingy Conners after learnedly discussing the politi- , cal situation epigrammatically remarked: "The people don't want no principles: they want to be on the winning side." So on the advice of that eminent statesman all principles have been abandoned, all morality has been eliminated all intelligence has been discarded.

TAFT AIDS SOUTH CAROLINA TICKET

Put Much Courage Into Hearts Of Republican State Candidates. NO NEGRO QUESTION. QUE8TION ELIMINATED BY AN AMENDMENT TO STATE CONSTITUTIONCAROLINIANS SHOULD VOTE AS THEY THINK. Greensboro, N. C Oct. 4.7. William H. Taft today put much courase into the breasts of J. Elwood Cox, banker and manufacturer of High Point and nominee for governor on the republican ticket and C. F. Toms, of Hendersonville, nominee for Lieutenant Governor. "Your visit to North Carolina gives me the firm belief that not only will you carry the state, but that the state ticket will be elected," was what Mr. Cox told Judge Taft as hej and his running mate joined the Taftj special. j "We are sure of electing two and there is a possibility of electing one more republican congressmen," he added. In outlining the situation to Mr. Taft, Mr. Cox said that he was nominated unanimously and that he had made a campaign of the state, making business the strict issue. No Negro Question. "The negro question has been eliminated," he added, "by an amendment to the state constitution, which it is estimated, will limit the negro vote to 5,000 in the state. This was the action of the democrats, who declared they were not disfranchising the negro, but enfranchising the whites." This information caused Judge Taft to add an expression of satisfaction that he had taken his southern swing. He spoke briefly at Statesville and at Salisbury. This afternoon he addressed meetings at High Point and Greensboro in this state. He will speak at Danville, Va, and Richmond, Va., this evening. Vote as They Think. At Statesville Judge Taft said: Complaint is often made by the people of North Carolina that their men do not take their part in the affairs of the country. They do not. North Carolina has able men, but as long as you are going to vote the democratic ticket and the republican party is In power, I don't see how these gentlemen who do the voting can expect to share in the power. In other -words, let them vote as they think, and then we; shall wipe out sectional lines. It is a great pleasure for me to come here, because I think I am the first republican candidate for president that ever canfe into North Carolina in a campaign, and I am here for the pur pose of testifying to the South my interest in that section; my earnest desire to unite it with the North, and my hope that the republican party will be up in North Carolina, so that It may well have its full representation in the executive counsels of the nation." s WEALTH OF NEW Robert Noble Tells Schoolmasters of Wealth in the Southwest. IRRIGATION IS AN AID. WILL ADD GREATLY TO WEALTH OF THE COUNTRY SCHOOLMASTERS' BANQUET AND ELECT OFFICERS. At the annual meeting and banquet of the Wayne County Schoolmasters' club, held last evening at the Westcott hotel, the following officers were elected: President, T. A. Mott; vice president, C. W. Jordan; secretary and treasurer, W. S. Hiser. After an excellent course dinner had been served, President Robert Noble, of the New Mexico School of Mines, who is now at his old home in Centerville, on a year's leave of absence, gave a splendid address on existing conditions in the great southwest territory. He stated that the wealth of New Mexico had as yet been practically untouched. He said that the territory abounded in minerals of nearly every description and tlfat its agricultural future would astound even the farmers of the fertile middle west states. Mr. Noble stated that as soon as the TAFT SIGN ON RED CALF. Danville, 111., Oct. 17. One of the latest omens of a Republican victory at the polls next month, has been found in a calf which was born last week on the farm of Jas G. Schofstall, four miles east of this city. The animal is red and has the letters P. and T. on each shoulder. Schofstall says this means President Taft and that it is a sure thing the former Secretary of War will be the next President of the United States. Schofstall formerly was a Democrat, but says he will cast his vote for Taft and Sherman this year.

Senator Beveridge of Indiana, who spoke here today declared that the Rock Island Railroad had purposely delayed his train throughout Oklahoma, breaking his itinerary up and otherwise seriously interfering with his speech making, as a retaliation for the support he gave the rate bill in the United States Senate. Next Wednesday is Hospital Day. Get a tag. REPUBLICAN GUNS ARE TRAINED UPON THE OPPOSITION (Continued from Page One) address by saying he comes from a county where they do not have much use for a half way republican, the republican who says he is for Taft and Marshall. He asked: "Why don't you swallow the whole dish of rotten crow including Bill Bryan?" He said repub licanism and patriotism are spelled the same way. He requested that Gompers, when he comes to Rich mond, tell if the laboring man, who earns his living in a legitimate manner is not better off. He showed that in states where labor laws have been desired by the laboring men, and states which are republican, Massachusetts has sixteen, New York, six teen, Indiana fourteen, Illinois thirteen, Pennsylvania fifteen and Oregop ten, while in the democratic states Mississippi has none, Georgia, Alabama and Texas five each, and the rest of the democratic states the same ratio. Appeals for Temperance. Senator Mattingly said: "I read that somebody in this hall last night referred to Mr. Watson as a demago gue. That reminded me of history and when the democrats in Daviess county called Morton a democrat. Whenever they call a republican a demagogue I always buckle on my armor and work a little harder for him. There is not a state government in the union that has prospered as well that has prospered as well under thirteen years of republican control as Indiana. "Mr. Marshall poses as the boss apologizer and it now is up to him to apologize for the company he keeps. What is the big issue the democrats are running away from? The sole issue is shall the brewers rule? Shall the people have the right to settle the question of existence of saloons? It is not a prohibition measure but an enabling act. Marshall says he will repeal the ward privilege and the Nicholson law. When Indiana does that she will step backward fifty years In temperance legislation. Johnson Attacked. The pyrotechnic display of the meeting was touched off by Robert Brown, former clerk of the supreme court. He appeared to be fairly bubbling over with things to say and the words efferversced with absolute abandon. They were like the bubble of a creme de menthe and had all the bite and sting of the refreshing summer drink. Mr. Brown said in brief: "The republicans went into the cam paign without any apologies, certainly none to John Sharp Williams. The republican is not a party of apologies. Mr. Williams tries to tell us all about how to vote and direct us Indianians as to the rule of the people. He comes from a section of the country where the vote for electors is not half what it is in Indiana, but he talks to us about the rule of the people.

gogue than in Marshall's ni find there all the saloon and brewery owners and keepers of brothels in the red light, district They are all for Marshall and why? Johnson is a fine specimen of political humanity to stand before a Richmond audience and

say Watson is a demagogue. O, no. i Mr. Johnson is a statesman. He didn't know they wanted to have a post of fice in Richmond, O., no, far be it from Henry. . He is not a politician but a statesman. Watson did something while he was in congress. He may have made mistakes, but everybody has. I don't say that he did make any though. "Now Marshall started out to make a clean campaign. He was going to keep above the common level. He was going to be a statesman like Henry U. Johnson, but after he had delivered his keynote in this city, he had to revise it at Bethany. He found it too much like that garment which use to be in general use by women. I refer to the mother-hubbard. It covered everything and touched nothing. "There never was a candidate for the office of president better equipped to enter upon the duties of the office with the probable exception of George Washington, than William Howard Taft. Let us have faith and confidence and trust in the republican party in the country and state and elect Tafti and Watson." BID FAREWELL TO 0L0 CHURCH THIS MORNING (Continued From Page One.)

Again McNally asked the woman and she repeated she did not know. Thornton was carried into the house occupied by Ollie Milton and here the roundsman repeated his questions. When Mrs. Thornton continued to persist in her denials, the wounded man cried out she did know. The wife said then she knew the man, but did not know his name. Neighbors of the Thorntons appeared very reticent about talking of the matter last night. They would not discuss the domestic relations of the Thorntons, but the police were supplied with reliable information to the effect Mrs. Thornton has been a paramour of Kellar. The attitude of the neighbors and friends of the Thorntons leads the police to believe the woman probably is involved and an attempt is being made to shield her.

Or shall we have somebody else lead us and try a line of experiment? I do not come among you today to speak of what is going on in local politics, but will leave that for another. I wouldn't say a word against Mr. Marshall, the candidate of the opposition for governor as he has everything in voice and presence that is ne cessary, but I want to say the ballot you cast for governor is not to select some one fit for his social standing. I believe the man you vote for ought to have the necessary principles of government, executive ability and the power to enforce the causes he espouses. When the people of the great state of Indiana have put in their votes and they have been counted out it will be seen they want Mr. Watson for governor. It is because of the principles he believes in and advocates. "But let us to other fields. I need not talk long about the man who is to be our next president. Look on the legislative records and the laws placed upon our statutes in the last twelve years. They are what his party have made and they are what he i4jids for. Our opponents are noted for not staying at home to hunt their issues and each time they must seek something different. Bryan is one of them who always looks so far away that he can not see anything near at home. There is a "lot about trusts being talked of. We have a law that provides a punishment for any combination for the unlawful restraint of trade. Now the law provides (and the Democrats are not telling this) that if anybody in the country is Injured by a trust and shows such to be the fact in court, -'the judge shall multiply the amount named in the jury's verdict by three and then add to that a reasonable sum for attorney's fees. "The chief question to be decided upon in the matter of a president Is that of fitness. Nobody will say that with all his experience and understanding there is any fitter than Mr. Taft. Some think Bryan ought to be fit by this time because he has been trying to be president for so long and ought to have a chance. What has Bryan done? He has made great speeches and has been nominated for president by his party three times. ( At first he said our money was all wrong. You i people who now are in debt and owe full sized silver dollars make me president and I will fix it so you can pay your debts with fifty-cent dollars. But he didn't get there. Then he found some little brown people some 10,000 miles away and he said, put McKinley out and me in, and then I can go down there and turn those fellows loose. But again the American people said, 'no, and kept him out. On the night of that last election he said he had tried twice and lost and would not try again, but his memory was short and here we have the same fellow with a new 6tory. He says now he wants a Democratic congress and he will revise the tariff. He has a bank deposit story and some others. Are we going to try to guarantee every business man? If we start with the bankers, why not include the lawyers and all others who are entrusted with the money of others and say if any man proves bad and takes your money, we'll pay it back to you?" Mr. Harris took occasion to eulogize Abraham Lincoln, and said it was the oportunity given him by the Republican party that made him. He recalled the incident of the lost railroad pass that belonged to John W. Kern, the Democratic candidate for vice president, and his remarks elicited great laughter. He spoke of the history of Wayne county and the great Republican majorities it has returned, saying that In 18'4 it gave Lincoln the largest majority acocrded him by any county in the state. He called upon the audience to keep up the record for TT

Taft and Watson. The remarks of Thomas Davidson dealing with state issues were powerful in every detail. Mr. Davidson appeared thoroughly interested in his subject and walked about the long platform from side to side thrusting forth hiiy index finger as if driving home each point with telling effect. He dealt with the two questions that are most to the front in the state campaignlabor and couny local option, and succeeded greatly in advancing the Interests of James E. Watson. Watson was declared to be the friend of the laboring man and the first advocate of legislation that would be to their benefit. He was said to be standing xfpon a platform that called for a display of great moral courage as it included moral questions. Caught on the Fork. Ham Squires, counted (or tried to count) the crowd as it passed over the bridge to the speaking.

It i3 played by Wesson, Walter and Wesson, who have built up a substantial following throughout the legitimate and vaudeville field. The famous Parisian dancer. Carley Carlos will give an act bubbling over with the delightful French dance and song; the Rinaldoes known to have the best hoop rolling turn In vaudeville, will give their clever act, and moving pictures and the illustrated song complete a bill of unusual worth.

Savage, whose name Is identified with the most picturesque and widely advertised stage success of the age. "The Devil." will offer this piece here at the Gennett theater soon with Henry E. Dixey as the devil. Mr. Dixey will be supported by a notable cast, anJ the production will be an exact duplicate of that at the Garden theater. New York. "The Devil." for which Mr. Savage holds the exclusive rights of production on the Englishspeaking stage, was written by Frank Molnar, a journalist of Budapest, and a man who has been compared, with Shaw. Pinero. Sudermann and other famous dramatists. If anything, Molnar possesses a more supple Imagination than these other writers and his satire has been conceited by critics to be more pliant and brilliant than that of Shaw. The production of "The Devil" in this country and the wonderful success of the piece at the Garden theater in New York has proved the great versatility and untiring efforts of Henry W. Savage, who presented the comedy in the metropolis in les than thirty-six hours' notice, after having brought to New York, tbe members of the company who were scattered throughout the east. It wae a feat unparalled In tbe theatrical history of New York. "The Devil" deala with affairs of life which is entirely new and original, the leading figure, calling himself Dr. Miller, being no less a personage than his satanic majesty, whose history leads us to believe to be the root of all evil.
