»*->M ■. ' i. iu. v ' .T»t Why Senator Hanna And Would-Be v Senator Clark Will Not Have Joint Debate. l. * V ! • • — J Oolnmbas, 0„ Sept '29—The .jrqply of Chairman Diqk, of Republican State committee, to 'Chairman Sftlen, of the Democratic sUtp committee, deohnipg the challenge of John E Clarke, Democratic nominee for United States senator M- A. Hanna,: was given x>nt tonight. Chairman Diok says in part: “ I regret that candor compels me to say that I find some rather serious obj motions .to the conditions of your proposal. There ought to bj some quality as mutuality iu a joint discussion. I fear you bare o verlookedjthat phase of the oase. Let me particularize. Mr. Hanna's party has but one set of principles, while Mr. Clark’s party has a vast assortment of principles, sounding the entire gamut from dootriue to Dogma— Democratic, Populistic, agrarian Socialistic. “There is a tariff. How does Mr. Clarke s‘and on that issne? His party stands all over it. In New England it is for free raw material and for proieoted finished products; in Texas it is for protected raw material and forties fluish-

ed product s. ‘•Does Mr. Clarke favor a tariff for revenue only or a tariff for revenue with incidental protection? Is he a G irman tariff Democrat or a Johnson tariff Demoorat? If he favors any kind of a tariff let him debate with Mr. Johnson, who is an absolute free trader and would repeal every tariff and internal revenue law and sell all the oustom houses. “Mr Clarke has all these strings to his bow and more, toe. What ohance does Mr. Hanna, who has only one string to his bow, have in disputation with such a man? Mr. Hanna stands pat. When Mr. Clarke joins a party that stands pat on anything Mr. Hanna will talk with him.

"Then there is the ooinage question. How does Mr. Clarke stand on that? The absolution Mr. Bryan gave him would argue that he is not a stand patter. Indeed Mr. Bryan says he is not. Then if Mr. Clarke is really on the Kansas City platform and is bound to have a debate with somebody let him huDt up the Palmer and Buokner platform and debate with mat. If, on the other hand, he is still a gold bug, he has no quarrel with Mr. Hanna on that score—ex Senator Charles A. Towne is the man he is looking for, or the Hon. John J Lents might do in a pinch. If Mr. Clarke were elected to tbe Senate would he vote on There is. by all aooounts one good farm r ui Marion tp , whose corn tbe frost will ca'ch if it comes most any time before New Years. It fcs Wm. M. Hoover. He has a big field at his plaoe a few miles southwest, with 'an im'n n nae growth of stalks and which i« just getting well eared out, with ears way up above the heads es mst people, . William sent down to Wabaib county or that region after he seed aud supposed he was get* ing a white oorn with big ears, .hat would mature early. It is a sombioatiou that does not go together very often; Mtid it dida’t in th !,f "hits* ati, ngfet, and the ears are -big, in on • 1 * tHkllt * irwt’b

strqaatyg, )>itf Jheiq*rf*j mftority feature is wanting. Ih'e 'ourreqqy,,’ questifth wfth The Hold Demoorhts -or with Free Silver Democrats. “ •"■' “. , ‘The Republican State platform deolares tkat every one of the‘war amendments is binding in honor upon every American citizen ’ Why did Mr. Clarke says in hie Akron speech that platform winds up with a declaration that amounts to a nullification of~lhe fifteenth amendment ? •‘Does Mr Clarke stand on the ‘war amendcem? Dees he believe in them, or will he favor their repea ? Dies he favor the white supremacy plank lately sdoptqd the Maryland Democratic State convention with ft its poorly oonoealed threat do-entirely suppress the colored vote? Is he in harmony with Senator TilimHn, has boasted that whenever oolored voter- attempt to exeroisai -the

eleotive franchise in Smth Cariiliaa fie will meet the , wiib a ahot.gau? If elected t) the senate will Mr.'-Clarke j /in' hie ooileague from Tennessep, ,My. Carmack, and vote for his resolution to repeal the fifteenth amendment? Is Mr. Clarke willing to explain his position on these vital questions? •‘Where does Mr. C’arke stand on the Phillippine question? Does he 6tand with Mr. Bryan when he was lobbying at the capitol at Washington for the ratification of the treaty that oeded the island to ue? Or when later in the campaign of 1900 he advocated an ‘American protectorate? Or when still later he declared for their., ‘absolute independence?’ Does Mr. Clarke stand for any one or all thr ao f these proposi tion? i “Does Mr. Clarke aide with the Eastern Democrats, the ‘reorganizsrs?’ Democracy today wears so meny colors, appears under sp many different shapes tad forms assumes so many disguises that I feel it would be unfair to Senator Hanna to ask him to meet Mr. Clarke in a joint discussion until he is advised more fnlly as to Mr. Clarke’s position on the subjects above allnded to, until he learns what particular brand of ’Democracy Mr. Clark claims is his; nntil he knows whether he is expected to debate with Mr. Clarke, the corporation lawyer, or Mr. Clarke, the oandidate for United States senator.”
