"In all the annals of history, since the world began, covering a period of well nigh six tttousand years, there is Tint t n Vio -fruinrl o frym nf cnvorTimont comparable to ours or a people that have ever fostered and prospered their government as have the American peo ple of this republic. "Indeed7 it would eeem that God ir His Inscrutable providence had withheld this great western hemisphere from the knowledge and occupancy of the inter coursing peoples of the earth through all the lapsing centuries and cycles, un til such time as there should come men who were capable of forming a sys tem of government builded on the prin clples of equal justice to all and special privileges to none, and then, and not till then, did He reveal America for this purpose. And here was established by the fathers that system of govern ment which we enjoy today the grand est in all the world. "We love it for what it is. and will cherish and defend it for its priceless privileges to us and for what it prom ises to posterity: therefore be It "Resolved by the citizens of Golds boro in mass meeting assembled to do honor to the memory of our murdered president.

John Most was arraigned in police court today charged with having violated section 575 of the penal code in publishing an article tending to disturb the public peace. He told the magistrate that he would conduct his own defense. The article in The Freiheit which consti tuted alleged offense and which was headed "Murder Against Murder," was according to Most, a reprint from a book published fifty-five years ago and previously re-produced by him in The Freiheit fifteen years ago. He argued that as the number of The Freiheit in which the article last appeared was not distributed until Friday, Septem ber 6th it could not have inspired the assassination of President McKinley. At the afternoon session Most pre sented a recipt from a news company to show that the paper containing the article had been delivered at 11 a. m. on Friday. On the request of the dis trict attorney, the magistrate said he would hold Most for trial, although he did not think that the article had been printed because of the Buffalo crime. He fixed bail at $500.

When arraigned before Judge Edward K. Emory in the county court, the pils cner stubbornly refused to answer ques t ons repeatedly asked of him by District Attorney Penny as to whether he had counsel or wanted counsel. The district attorney then suggested that, insmuch as the defendant refuood to answer, counsel should be assigned. Judge Emory assigned Hc:i. Lorain L. Lewis and Hon . Robeic C. Titus, for mer supreme court Justices of this city, whose names had been suggested by the- Erie county bar association. Czolgosz probably will be arraigned again tomorrow morning to plead to the indictment. District Attorney Penny presertl the evidence in the murder case to th grand jury. Aside from the surgeons and physi cians in the case, no witnesses were sworn other than those who were in lhe Temple of Music and witnessed the shooting. The complete list of witnesses in the order in which they appeared to testify is as follows: Dr. Herman Mynter. Dr. H. R. Gaylord. Dr H. G Matzinger, Dr. M. D. Mann.

Charles J. Close, Exposition Guards Weaterf-lder and James and Detectives Ceury and Solomon of this city. At 4:15 o'clock this afternoon exactly ten days after the shooting, me grand jury voted unanimously to indict Czol gosz for murder in the first Utgre. At 4:41 o'clock the secret in dictment was presented to Judge Emory in the county court. Then ensued a wait or an hour, but the rumor that the murderer wio to bi arrainged spread and in short time the court room was crowded. Great secrecy was maintain d .'is to the place of confinement of tbe prts oner, but it is believed that he was lo cated up in the temporary jail at the Erie county penitentiary where pris oners have been kept while the jai'i has been undergoing repairs. After the in dictment was reported, the prisoner was driven from the penitefi'.Jyr.v. a mile from the city hall, to the jaii across the street from the hall. Czol gosz was then taken under strong guard from the jail through th1 tunnel under Delaware avenue to the base ment of the city hall and up tne flairs to the court room on the second Hoor. The prisoner was shackled tc a de tective and another detective held his other arm, Assistant Superintendent Cusack marching in front and a number of patrolmen behind. When the prison er was taken before the berch. the crowd in the court room surged about him on all sides. They were cunpcllod to resume their seats. Czolgosz is of medium height, of fair ly good build and has light curly hair, but a ten days' growth of beard on his face gave him an unkempt appearance. Apparently he feigned insanity, Jiot stupidity, and his glance roamed at out. but his eyes were always downcast. Not once did he look the county prosecutor or the judge In the face.

The district attorney respectfully aug - gested that counsel be assigned to de- fend the prisoner and ascertain what he had better do as to his plea to the Indictment before the arraignment. Judge Emory then asked the prisoner before the bar if he had counsel, but . there was no answer, despite the fact f that the police omcers told him the Judge was rpeaklng and that he must answer. The court then said: "Czolgosz. you having appeared for arraignment in the court, without counsel, the law makes it the duty of the court to assign counsel. The bar association fof our county has considered the matter and suggested the names of certain gentle men of high character for such assign ment. The court has seriously con sidered the question and after much consideration has concluded to follow the suggestions made by the associa tion. The court, therefore, assigns the Hon. Lorain L. Lewis and Hon. Rob ert C. Titus as you counsel." Judge Emory directed the officers to notify the attorneys and remove the prisoner. Czolgosz was handcuffed to the de tectives who started out of the court room with him. The crowd surged af ter them, but found the exit barred by policemen. Outside the court room door, the prisoner was surrounded by the police men and hurried down stairs into the basement. whence he was taken through the tunnel to the jail across Delaware avenue. Whether he was left there for the night or taken elsewhere, the police refused to say. District Attorney Penny said that Justices Lewis and Titus would be no tified and given an opportunity to talk with the prisoner and that he hoped to arraign Czolgosz tomorrow. REBUILD THE KIDNEY? Any kidney or bladder trouble is a serious one and should have early and right attention. The kidneys are slow to yield to disease and when they do, overwork is the usual cause. An af fected kidney is an exhausted one, im pure blood has weakened it; the rem edy needed is one that will restore strength and rebuild the kidney itself. This Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic will do. It has been doing it for forty-five years and no other remedy has ever been held in puch universal favor. Th'y kidneys filter impurities out of the blood. "When the blood is bad the kidneys get clogged with these poisons. Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic cures by neu tralizing the impurities, by hastening their expulsion, by building up the tis sues of the kidneys, and by giving these troubles it is also repairing all the delicate machinery of the body. This is the best of all tonici. It does everything that any ordinary tonic can do and very many important things that other remedies cannot do. Xor can it do anything but good; it Is ab solutely harmless, and can be given to support the strength and to hasten the cure of any invalid, young or old. Or dinary iron sometimes harms, but the iron in Harter's Tonic is In such form that it does no harm. It enriches the blood, strengthens the stomach, and aids digestion.

ROOSEVELT OUTLINES HIS POLICY Extension of Reciprocity Abolition of Certain Tariff Duties -An Isthmian Canal -American Merchant Marine Buffalo, September 16. President Roosevelt has outlined in some detail the policy he will follow during his in cumbency of office. It will be remem bered that when he took the oath of office he stated with much deflniteness: "It shall be my aim to continue ab solutely unbroken the policy of Presi dent McKinley for the peace (and he emphasized the word) prosperity and honor of the country." Yesterday the President gathered to gether some personal friends in Buffalo and those members of the cabinet who were here and gave to them such ideas as he had already formulated for the conduct of public affairs and his own policy. In no sense are they divergent from what has been understood as Mr. McKinley's policy. This policy, as out lined to his friends at yesterday's con ference, will be for: A more liberal and extensive reci procity in the purchase and sale of commodities so that the over-produc tion of this country can be satisfactor ily disposed of by fair and equitable arrangements with foreign countries. This ablotion entirely of commercial war with other countries and the adoption of reciprocity treaties. The abolition of such tariff on for eign goods as are no longer needed for revenue, if such abolition can be had without harm to our industries and la bor. Direct commercial lines should be es tablished between the eastern coast of the United States and the ports In South America and the Pacific coast ports of Mexico, Central America and South America. The encouraging of the merchant ma rine and the building of ships which shall carry the American flag and be owned and controlled by Americans and American capital. The building and completion as soon as possible of the Isthmian canal so as to give direct water communication with the coast of Central America, South America and Mexico. The construction of a cable owned by the government connecting our main land with our foreign possessions, no tably the Philippines. The use of conciliatory methods of arbitration in all disputes with foreign nations so as to avoid armed strife. The protection of the savings of the people In banks and; in other forms of investments by the preservation of the commercial prosperity of the country and the placing in positions of trust men of only the highest integrity.

Effort to connect the Chicago anarchist with a plot to assassinate President McKin ley will be abandoned and the prisoners probably will be reased tomorrrow. This decision was reached by the local authorities to?ay. Chief O'Xeil received a letter from Chief of Tollce Bull, of Buffalo, early in the day announcing that, while th police there were still workir.c to es tablish the connection of the assas sination with the anarchists in Chicago and Cleveland, they had secure i no tangible evidence. Chief O'Neill is concerned for the safety of the anarchists, who probably will be released tomorrow on habeas corpus -proceedings. He regards It as likely they will want, for th- present to be allowed to stay In the county jail.
