Hoosevelt was probably much pleas ed by the demonstration with which he was greeted at LJncotn. Nob., the home of Mr. Bryan.

Borne days ago Mr. Bryan especially re quested his townspeople to treat the Re publican vice presidential candidate with marked consideration.

Hut what <jo©*the president of th© Philippine Lumber and Development Company care about that mn hang ap hip romfanjr make* money? It would aeein to be hardly proper for the chairman of the Military Committee of the loArr house of Congress to be at the head of a development company in the Philippines while occupying a position which enable* him to e*ert a powerful In fluence In deciding the policy which shall be pursued in regard to those Islands. If he had no such Interests he might, and probably would, take the position that the wisest thing for thl* country to do i* to withdraw from the island* and assist the Filipino* In setting up a government of their own. But being at the head of a company that i* gobbling up the land* and timber of the !lands. Ip Ii at all like ly that h** would wdfvlse that course? A great fault to be found with the Re publican party I* Its willingness to permit the government to be administered In the Interests of the leaders of that party. The tariff is framed so as to benefit them, though the claim la made that It Is for the benefit of American workmen No one who has given the tariff careful consider ation. doubts that the trusts are the chief beneficiaries of the protective tariff. It was said by the chairman of the Huger Trust not very long ago that the present tariff was the mother of trust*. And there la no doubt that the trust magnates favor a large army for the rea son chiefly that M will be used In their In terests. If they should have serious trouble with their workmen. The statement made by Mr. Bryan rela tive to the uses to which the Republican larty propose* to put the army oiyrht to startle the whole country. It 1* certain ly time to call a halt In the Increase of the army when U appear# that the pur pose of the party In power la to use the army to advance the welfare of promoting syndicate* and trust magnates. TUB KI.M TIOH. The vote In the state election yesterday would have b*en larger had there been any corwest Involved to stir up and main tain Interest. There was rain in the South ern rrt of the state, too. and that kept many voters at home who otherwise might have east their Uiilots It was expected that a light vote would be pol.ed. because, a* a matter of fact, the recent primary settled the political affairs of the state for <he next two years. In n few of the counties there were contest*, but In most of them the election waa a walk-over for the Ivmnrratlr nominees* Ttie figures of yesterday's ©lection, therefore, cannot be taken as Indicating what the voters of thorgla will do in the matter of the presidential election; for beyond a doubt they will go to the polls next month and roll up an "old lime" majority for Bryan and fltevenann. t STIItW. A straw, showing the feeling of the Re publican leaders relative to the outcome of the presidential election, la the an nouncement that ei-Prraldenl Harrison has finally consented to make a speech or two. or at least lo write a letter, be tween now and the day of election, advo cating the re-election of Mr. McKinley. The fact that Gen Harrison ha* said no word In favor of the presldsntlal can didate of hie party has been widely com mented on among Republican*. He Is a man of great Influence In his parly, par ticularly In Indiana, the state In which lie la* hi* resilience It Is the under standing that he doe* not approve the Philippine poller of hi* parly. H* ha* Mid nothing (or or against that policy for publication, and It t probable that If he make* a speech or write* a letter he will not discus* the Philippine question But should he avoid that question It will be understood that he la against hts party's I'hlllygvlns policy, and he would do the Republican ticket almost ns much dam age as If he continued to remain silent. No doubt great pre ure ha* been brought to bear on Oen Harrison to say something In favor of Mr. McKinley. They hope, with hi* assistance, to gel the elec toral vote of Indiana, ami to strengthen their line* In other doubtful state*. If the Republican leaders felt certsln of winning the election they would never have approached (Jen. Harrison, and begged for help. It Is -1.1 that they have tried to get *x-B|teaker Heed to *ay some thing for the ticket, but have not suc ceeded. If Mr Reed should *i>eak hi* mind about Mr. McKinley and hi* for eign policy, he would create a sensation it Is better f r the Republican party that he declines to take any part In the cam paign. No doubt, however, the silence of two such conspicuous Republicans as lien. Harrison and ex-Bp< k*r Reed h.* had a very dampening effect on the party gen erally The apathy of whl-h Chairman Hanna has complained so much ha* not yet disappeared. "Oen." Jacob ft.

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY; OCTOBER 4, 1900. TUB Mltßftl *OT BATHMTIKO. The strike of the miners in the anthra cite coat region of Pennsylvania I* not settled yet by any mean* It sunied. a* soon as the mine operator* of fered an Increase of per cent In the ompenso’ tow of the miner*, tnat the strike waa at ar. end. It si* really more than the strikers had asked, more than they t*d expe< ted. Tfcej hoped to get a small advance In wagee an l some con es slon- For Instance they wanted a rep resentative at the scale*, they claiming that they wre cheated by the weighers of the -*oal companies. They also asked that I hers be a reduction in the price of powder furnished by the s'.orr* of the fomiwntes. It seems that most. If not ah, of the companies have consented to tha reduction In the price .f powder What the strikers demand now*'ls that the mine owners and operators shall re.tognlse ih labor union of the miners—the union known as the United Mine Workers of America. It is said that the mine operators will never recognise the union. In that case a long struggle may be looked for If the miners ars united, and they seem to be acting In the utmost harmn>. they will be able to hold out until the whole sec tion of country using anthracite coal will tie crying out for fuel If the mine operator* grant ail of the demands of the strikers except the one relating to the union It is doubtful If the sympathy of the public will be with the striker*. As hng as It was the under standing that the miners were being un derpaid for their labor, and were being imposed upon in the matter of the prlc© of powder and the weighing of the coal, the sympathy of the public wss with them, but the public will hardly lie aide to understand the effort to compel the op erators of the mines to recognii© the min ers’ union The statement Is being published that Presklent Mitchell of the United Mine Workers is a very ambitious man and Is peeking to unite in one organisation ail of the mtner* of the entire country, those working In bituminous, as well at those working in anthracite mines If he could accomplish that he would have most girnniic labor organisation In the world. With such an organisation he could practically control the coal mining business In this country. It la evident, therefore, that he will not succeed in ac complishing hi* purpose without a long tight. It look* ns If the mine operator* made a mistake in offering such a liberal compromise so promptly after the strike was inaugurated Apparently the min ers were led to believe that they had but to hold out to have all of their d©a>ands granted % PI ZXLDG STATE. More guessing Is being done as to the outcome of the campaign In Indiana than In any other state. There are. of course, other doubtful states, but they are not as pussling It Is claimed that there are a* many as Su.WO Indiana voters who have not yet made up their minds as to the tick** they will vote. Assuming that that statement Is correct, it Is easy to under stand why the state Is pussling to the pol iticians. It Is pretty well understood thaS about half of the Gold Democrats are back In the Democratic party, and It is claimed by the Republicans that the Rllver Repub licans and Greenbacks* who voted for Mr. Bryan In ISSS are hack in the Republi can party. It 1s a pretty swfe assertion, however, that the politician* do not know nearly as much about the voters as they pretend The polls of the state they make ar© of the most superficial character, mere speculations The workers are try ing to enrn their money. Homebody Is go ing to be very much surprised In the In diana vote on election day. WUI those who are surprised be Republicans or Dem ocrats? That Is a question that cannot be answered at this time. The New York Herald. In It* Monday's Issue, print* a table |n which It give* Mr McKinley 25S electoral vote* and Mr. Bryan lti. It classes twenty-one as doubt ful In IK* Mr. McKinley got 271 and Mr Bryan 17*. The Herald's doubtful states are Idaho. Indiana and Montana. There are other doubtful states.
