Ky.. says Henry Watterson was the prin cipal speaker at a Democratic rally in the Masonic Theatre Thursday night. As this was Mr. Watterson’- flrst political speech since 1892, and will probably be his only platform utterance during the present cam , paign, much interest was manifested. He spoke in part as follows: “I truly rejoice that I have lived to look upon a reunited Democracy. I was born in a Democratic camp during what proved a bad year for Democrats, and attained my majority Just in time to see the party go over the precipice of sectionalism to what seemed its ruin. - “The politicians tell us there are many issues, but I see only one.

In his last rejoinder to Mr. Bryan. In the debate growing out of th«* case of Governor Haskell, President Roosevelt responded to Mr. Bryan s challenge to "name a single official connected with a .law-defying corpo ration ’ who had declared or will declare that he is supporting Mr Bryan, by quoting from a St. Louis paper an interview with Judge Henry Priest,'-eL, St. Louis, who, according to the President, represented th** \\ aters-Pierce OH Company, the Western subsldary to the Standard Oil Company, in which he stated that ne would support Bryan." Judge Priest has taken notice of the matter In an intervlew'ln The St. Louis Republic, and his state ment illuminates a little more Mr. Roosevelt's recklessness of his own exposure when he ialys about amonz his enemies. Judge Priest says that he is not nor has he ever been an official of the Waters 1 Pfjy<*e company, nor or any othet 6iL company. Iu 1904, he states, his flrnr'was retain ed by H. C.
