Watson Want, to Rally the Peo j,lr Around Jeffersonian Princi plH* ns He Eiponndi Them. Think. He Polled 500,000 Notes. NeW York. Nov. 13.—Thomas E. Watson to-day gave out the following statement: It should be borne in mind that at the time the Springfield convention tendered me the presidential nomina tion. the People’s party had had no real existence as a factor in national politics for eight years. In the presi dential election of 1900 it gave to its nominee only 5.000 votes. To that ex tent the fusion of 1896 swallowed up a movement which in 1894 counted nearly two million of votes and about 1,500 active newspapers, and therefore, we had to build from the ground up in !904. We had almost nothing to start with in the way of party organization, campaign funds and newspapers sup port; we had only three months in which to work. "These things being first considered, some fair idea of what was accomplish ed can be had only when the official returns are known. Up to this time, no official statement has been made of the vote, and I can only guess what it was from information conveyed to me hy friend* in various parts of the country. These sources, of course, are not very reliable. Basing an estimate upon them, however, my opinion is than I received something like 500,000 votes, scattered through many states, North, South, East and West to indicate that the sentiment which gives its moral support 'to the People's party is national and not sectional. Want Jeffersonian Democracy. "I have found everywhere that the current was strong ‘and deep in favor of Jeffersonian Democracy. I believe to-day that if all those who believe in that theory of government could be united in harmonious political action we could sweep the country. Mr. Roosevelt's overwhelming majority was not so much due to the fact that our people believe in class legislation ‘and the reign of special privileges. It was not by any means an indorsement of corporation tyranny, the greed of the trusts or the methods of combined cap ital. "Mr. Roosevelt's majority over Mr. Parker was due mainly to two things, one was the immense personal popu larity of Mr. Roosevelt himself, and the other was the immense unpopularity of Mr. Cleveland’s second administra tion. Unfortunately for Mr. Parker, he became so completely identified with the marauders who plundered the government during Mr. Cleveland’s second administration ttfat he had to bear all the odium which they had in curred. Hatred of Cleveland. “The people have never had a chance to show just what they thought of that second administration. Mr. Bry an s two campaigns did not give them the opportunity; it w‘as only when the old Cleveland combination secured the defeat of Bryan and Hearst and dic tated the nomination of Mr. Parker •hat the masses got the opportunity to tent upon a national candidate the intense hatred which they had been nursing for years against such men as Olney and Belmont and Carlisle and Cleveland himself. They knew that I could not be elected, and they were 60 eager to make the best of the op portunity to safeguard the country against a repetition of that saturnalia of class legislation which marked Cleveland's second administration that ey rus hed to Roosevelt and gave him a majority which does not under or inarv circumstances belong to the Re- J I ‘'-an party - In other words, the Personality of Mr. Roosevelt and the of Parker's environment \'im' !?f 0 the Re Pnhlican column ordinal ° f men who undar *oun7therf UmBtanCeB W ° U ‘ d not bc " to OrgnatUe the People. bra / ° W " plans for the future em- Peori/, C ° mPlete or ® anlzat *°n of the liemor aiong the llnea of Jeffersonian form th * re - e * tab Bhment of re gaivi Paper " and a ystematic propa der t L°r | JefrerBonlan P rinci P lea in or of gnu n lm th6re Bha “ be a party < aa pa r " a ° PP ?

Japanese Prince Is on His Way to Washington, Chicago, Nov. 13.—Prince Fushimi, member of the Japanese royal house hold, and special representative of the Mikado, accompanied by three of his countrymen and retinue of servants, arrived in Chicago to-day on his way to Washington to call on President Roosevelt and to visit the capital and government offices. On arrival in Chi cago the party was taken in charge by t*e Japanese consul, who looked after the entertainment, of the visitors un til to-night at 6 o’clock, when they left for the East. "There is no question of national im portance nor any phase of eastern con ditions that I care to discuss,’’ said the Prince through his interpreter. “While Japan is not at peace, we hope for a cessation of hostilities before long. My visit has no particular significance, ex cept in so far as it may serve to strengthen the friendship that exists between Japan and the United States; but this visit has no connection with the war with Russia.” WANT NO POLITICS. It Is Said the Federation of Labor Will Tarn Socialists Down. San Francisco, Nov. 13.—The Ameri can Federation of Labor will begin a two weeks’ session in this city to-mor row.

Mahon of Detroit, president of the Amalgamated Street Railway Em ployes, said that the labor outlook was decidedly hopeful and that this would be one of the busiest sessions in the history of the Federation. Regarding the. action of the executive council in revoking the charter of the Chicago Federation of Labor, Mr. Mahon ex pressed himself as at a loss to account for the council’s • action. He' spoke in very decided . terms against the in troduction of politics into the federa tion. He said the Socialists delegates to the convention had tried at nearly every yearly meeting to have the federation committed to Socialism and that they would be again turned down, as would the delegates of other political parties that attempted the same object. Regarding the formation of an In ternational organization of labor unions, Mr. Mahon said that the only steps in that direction were taken by the Longshoremen of the International Transportation lines. He added it was a hard enough Job to get the labor unions of the United States Into line. JACKSONS CAPTURED. Went Virginia Desperadoes Were Hidden In n Coal Mine. Charleston, W.

It Is proposed to provide for the war expenses by increasing the taxation by $45,000,000, by retrenching from the advance expenses and the suspension of public works by the amount of $35,000,000 and to raise the balance, $35,000,000, by loans.

She continued on across the room and, raising her left hand, took down the telephone receiver to call for help, at which time she received the second shot, which penetrated the body Just under the left arm.

It was Just before 6 o'clock and a terrific gale was blowing. The schooner was coming through Vineyard sound and was proceeding *under her foresail, the gale being too fierce to permit more, canvas being carried. The schooner tacked and tried to work into the cove for anchorage, but the wind bora her off and as she swung away she struck a ledge of rock not more than 100 yardß from the light house.
