After all the real question Is that of deeeucy In the life oT the home nd honpsty In public life. It makes little difference In the iong run whether a democratic or a republican Is president, but it makes every difference to have all our public officials honest and dean.

The candidate is the candidate of ins party, but the President, if he is worth his salt, is the president ot I the whole people. You cannot, have good public life unless you have good private life. The country will be all right if the average man is decent and clean In his home life, but if it goes below that average you cant make the country right. I have a great respect fur a good man, and the only one I have greater respect for is a good woman, and if there is anyone here who does not agree with me I dont think mm of him. TUB CHILDREN CROP.

"We young men have a great heritage in this free country of ours and pt ns see that, we transmit it unpaired to our children. Let their valor and heroism in war aud in peace be an incentive to greater efforts. He dosed with a tribute to the veterans of the civil war and said: "The only people I Teel as glad to see as the veterans are the fathers and mothers with babies in their arms. Arkansas has cause to feel proud of its natural resources and its great crop is the crop of babies and those of Arkansas seem to be all right in quanitity and quality. I like to see the children for I have a few ntyself.

See that the children are educated for citizenship in intellect and when they grow up they may have the three cardinal virtues of American citizenship courage, honesty and common sense. At the conclusion of the address Hon. H. L. Remmel introduced the President to Virginia Andrews, mother of Rev.

W. K. Andrews, who was a dassamte of the Presidents mother.

26. There was considerable excitement yesterday at all railroad stations which are in possessions of troops. Not a train departed. The railroad battalions were called out and an attempt will be made to man a train to Moscow and the frontier tomorrow. Collisions are feared.

Great crowds assembled at the Moscow station and gendarmes interfered twice to restore order, but there was no bloodshed. The leaders of the strikers on the Moscow and Warsaw lines, after consultation have planned a big meeting for October 27. There are railway employes in the empirfe and their average wage is $140 per annum. The minister of railroads has or-j derpd that an allowance of a dollar tier day for food lie made in the case I of first-class passengers who are de-! tained en route and that fifty cents be allowed to second-class, and 25 cents to third-dasg passengers. Enormous Extension.

This afternoon reports show an onor- mous extension of the strike. All or i the Poland Ijnos are tied up and a strike has begun on the great southwestern system, covering the territory 1 westward from Kief toward Odessa. The (Jerntan Red Cross which has ar-, rived here from the front is unable to leave St. Petersburg. Trains in the Baltic provinces are not running and the situation is re-1 ported very bad at Riga and Libati.

The railroad stations here are, guarded by police and troops, the soldiers in barracks are kept under arms, and squads of cossacks are in evidence in the streets which are filled 1 with idle men. Food Becomes Scarce. In addition to the strike workmen on the Obukhof, Putiloff, Nevski, Alexan-drovski and Kolpino work3, all the employes of the factories on the Schlusselburg Uhawssee walked out today in sympathy with the railroad strikers.

LITTLE ROCK, Oct. Uti. President Roosevelt was greeted at the City park by more than So.uhtt people, and his speech was delayed some minutes by the ovation given the Chief Executive. President George W. Rogers, of the board of trade, was master of ceremonies and introduced Gen.

Jeff Davis, who spoke at some length upon geueral lines. He was followed by Judge Jacob Trleber. who then Introduced the President. The President was In his usual happy frame of mind, and the hearty greeting accorded hint by the assembled thousands provoked the well-known smile, and it was several minutes before he was allowed to proceed with his speech. ROOSEVELT SPEAKS.

When President Roosevelt was introduced the vast throng of people broke Into a prolonged cheer and it was several minutes before he could proceed. Then he spoke substantially as follows: "Governor, and Mv fellow Ampii-cans: I cannot sufficiently express my gratitude and appreciation for the magnificent greeting you have given me today and in greeting all of you I ish to say espec ial words of greeting to those who wore the gray, and those who wore the blue in the civil war, and I respectively wish to emphasize this on behalf of my tomrades of the uaional guard, forming the guard of honor here today, with whom I myself went to war in 189S. There could lie no better augury tliau that the escort of an American President should be those who once wete enemies walking shoulder to shoulder. RU AND GRAY. "What a joy it is to think of the scr- vice of the men who wore the blue and 1ne men who wore the gray, a glorious record for the North aud South.

Of that regiment the fathers of more of them wore tbp gray than wore the blue, but the only rivalry was to see who could do the most for their common country. 1 have gpoken all over the country, but 1 would not make a remark here that 1 would not make anywhere else. I am fortunate in being President of a coun-fpy-where-to praise one state you do not have to run down any other. 1 am for all of them.

Oct. 26. The state board of health has discharged all state officers at infected points, thus officially declaring the yellow fever infection at an end.

After tonight, there will be no reports from Infected points. Local quarantines are dropping daily and the quarantine regime of P.5 will pass into history before the end of the week. The campaign cost the state bet ecu 15,000 and $20,000. which is much lighter than usual. A good portion of the expense was borne this year by the Hospital Service.

BANKERS TO MEET HERE. A meeting of the executive committee of the Mississippi State Baukers Association will be called to assemble in Jackson next month for the purpose of discussing the changes proposed in the banking laws of the state by the Annotated Code Commission, and which are contained in the dummy-code recently Issued for presentation to the legislature. The commission proposes to place the state banking institutions under the supervision of the state insurance commissioner, and suggests quite a number of very radical changes in the hanking laws, providing for regular annual inspection of ail state banks, and oftener when deemed necessary by the commissioner. This matter was before the legislature once before and was knocked into a cocked hat. so to speak, by the committee of bankers who came to Jackson for the purpose of discussing the matter with the legislators.

The proposed law gives the insurance and hanking commissioner absolute jurisdiction over all financial institutions. even to the extent that they must obtain their powers as a corporate body from the commissioner, instead of new hanks having their charters approved by the governor, as at present. No hank will he allowed to organize with a capital slock of less than and cannot have a corporate existence for more than fifty years. All by-laws must he submitted to the commissioner for approval after certificate of authority to transact business is issued. New banks being launched must have their capital stock fully paid up.

The legal reserve must at all tiniPs equal at. least fifteen per cent of immediate liabilities. At least four reports per year must he made the commissioner, showing financial condition. and special reports may be called for whenever the commissioner deems it necessary. In case of insolvency the bank places its affairs in the hands of a special deputy bank commissioner, who shall act for not longer than sixty days, or until a receiver is appointed.

The commissioner is required to make annual reports to the governor. Any bank capitalized at or more may amend its charter and exercise the rights and powers of a trust company. FREIGHT PROBLEM. At its second meeting in November the Mississippi railroad commission will take up for consideration and action the several important freight problems that have been pending on the docket for the past six months, action on which has been deferred on account of the quarantine restrictions which prevented many traffic officials from coming to Jackson. FREAK EXHIBITS.

The thousands of exhibits now being offered for the Mississippi industrial exposition to be held in Jackson from November 22 to December 2 serves as an illustration of the queer ideas manv people hold concerning suitable exhibits for an exposition of tills character. Manager McKay received a letter yesterday offering for exhibition a wonderful pig with two tails born somewhere down in the piuey woods section of the state. Another fellow has a six-fingered negro baby which he thinks would immensely please the crowds, and still another claims to possesses a mustang pony with cloven hoofs and diabolic disposition which he believes to lie somewhat akin to his satanic majesty. Many letters of this sort are being received hy Manager McKay, almost forcing him to the conclusion that at least a portion of the people of Mississippi believe he is getting up a dime museum. The exposition management wants exhibits, and promises to furnish space for all that are offered, but they must he repreesntative of the industrial and ag-ieultural resources of the state, otherwise they will not he available.

Two field agents an? now touring the state collecting exhibits, and shipments to Jackson w-ijl soon he commenced. The arrangement of displays will be started about three weeks in advance of the opening. BETTER SALARIES. At the approaching session of the legislature a memorial will be presented by the school teachers of the stale asking that, the salary of the state superintendent of eduentifm be increased to per year. The present salary is only per annum, with an allowance of $5ihj each yeai for traveling expenses, the latter being paid nn itemized statements tur-nished to the auditor.

Several superintendents of city schools in this state receive nearly $2,000 per xear, while the salary is not uncommon among professors in the higher institutions of learning.

For Your Winter Suit $15 $15 date Yale will play West Point), at West Point; Harvard will tackle Brown: Pennsylvania and the Carlisle Indians will battle-for On paper it Jooks as if Yale, Harvard and Pennsylvania should be the winners, but the games that the opponents of the big colleges have been playing puts a peculiar aspect on the case. West Point was surprisingly defeated by the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, and only last Saturday outplayed Harvard at every point, though the crimson men, by a sheer piece of luck, secured a touchdown and goal.

If the Army men play against Yale as they did against Harvard, the blues will have a hard game. Brown played Pennsylvania to a standstill. The Indians as is well known are a bard set at all times. The West Point-Yale game will give the football experts a line on Harvard's chances with Yale. If the blue trims the Army men by a big score the consensus of opinion will be that the wearers of the crimson will be in had with Yale.

Brown played Pennsyl-' vania to a standstill Saturday and only lost by a score of 8 to 6. Harvard desires a line on Pennsylvania and the contest between Brown and Harvard will give the Cambridge men the opportunity desired. Coach Heisman of Tech has Invented a novel scheme in practice. It is a greased football. He argues that if a man can learn to hold an oval covered with grease, little trouble should be found in bugging or holding the pigskin unadorned hy such a covering.

Tech has fumbled too much to suit Heisman and he is doing his best to put a stop to the costly blunders. Vanderbilt will likely get an opportunity to give Texas a severe drubbing in exchange for the defeat administered to the Commodore brigade the day the Texas and Vanderbilt elevens met. The Texans were the victors by a score of 22 to 0. The cowboys evidently have given up hope of repeating the performance against Vanderbilt. The Rangers statu that, they hope to hold Vanderbilt to a score under 20.

Princeton's cripples: Brown, a tackle; O'Brien, end; Waller, guard. The men are still crippled, but it is be- lieved will be able to play again In a week or ten days. Brown has a broken collar-hone. By wearing a leather plate oxer his shoulder It is believed that he can safely enter the game. Lack of weight is the weakness shown in the center of the Yale line.

From the start of the season they have not been satisfied that Flanders was the right man for center rush. He is too tall for his pounds. But his speed and activity have been in his favor. Gilles was tried fur a time at center after Flanders retired. Heckenberger was put in Erwin's place at left guard.

The former weighed aliout twenty pounds more than Erwin. Cates and Shavlin are the most likely pair of ends. 1 is a thirty-third degree fan and would walk several miles to witness a halt game.

C. Oct. 26. Clem-son had an easy time with Alabama in the annual football game yesterday. The Alabama men could not stop the rushes of the Clemson hacks, and the visitors made several costly fumbles.

The score was Clemson, 26: Ala bama. 0. Clemson played every form of football. Rushes were made and followed hy great work around Alabama's nils. The local eleven piled up five touchdowns and a goal, while Alabama could do nothing in the way of scoring.

The victory of Clemson has caused great rejoicing here.
