BRYAN TICKETS SUITS
THE MISSOURI P0PULISTS.
State Committee Urges Rank and File
TO Give Democracy Their Hearty
support.

Support.
Carthage. Mo, Oct. :}.-An address
has been issued by the people = party
state central committee TO the popu-
list voters OF Missouri. in which the
followers of that faith are urged 10
cooperate in the election OF the dem
ocratic ticket in November as the
quickest means Of securing those re-
forms for which the peoples party
stands The address Is IN part:
The populists OF Missouri are
broad minded and intelligent enough
to recognize that all reform move
ments progress slowly and We do not
expect TO see our principles become
the law OF the land in "A single day or
in single campaign, Yet We congrat-
ulate ourselves on the rapid advance
OF a part OF our principles which are
now the slogan OF IL party which III
1896 cast over 5000, 900 votes and
which party again in 1900 reatfirmed |
part OF those principles and is now |
proclaiming them from the rostrum |
and through thousands OF newSpa- i
pers. We point TO these things not
with jealousy, but with patriotic
pride, and gladly join hands with our
brethren for the perpetuity OF free
government.
While We hold other issues also OF
vital Importance, we cheerfully Oc- /
cupy the position OF helpers and pa
tiently await the day when all our
demands Will become the watchword
OF the people and move on to COM
plete victory. With a harmonious
C J-Operation in national affairs it is ,
but logical that the same harmony
should prevail in state affairs.
Therefore, recognizing the import I
ance OF the success OF the struggle
being waged against trusts, imperi- =
allsm and kindred evils by our allies '
the democrats, we earnestly urge
every populist to cast his vote for =
the democratic nominees for election I
and the various state offices.
This action should not be taken +
As a surrender Of our party or@aniza- }
ton, but only as a temporary coop Il
,ration for Immediate results, and TO {
his end we urge every county TO "
perfect at once the party organiza- -,
lon and keep it intact for present NJ
md future usefulness. \
with the reasoning. broad-minded q
)opulist, the thought is always: NJ
COUNTRY above party, and he will al }
ways be found allied in spirit with "
hose who hold similar views. In A
he present campaign his DUTY is 1
'lain. Mark Hanna's money. the II
GERS and gibes of political opponents F
II indictments, nor even the pros /
'ects OF ultimately loosing his DO A
tlcal identity have not the power of b
werving him from his duty. ="

 A TALK WITH MR HAY
He Presented No Credentials and Called ln- forrnaIIy-Was Given an Hours Au-
 dience at Busy Time

Washington, January 23.-Montague White. consul general of the South Afri- can republic in London. called ct tfhe state department today arld had conference with Secretary Hay. TGere was an utter absence of formality about MT. Whites visit.
 No appointment had been made so far as could be learned, and the preeensat ton of h4s card was the first notice that the secretary had from et1y,tling but newepa- per sources that MT. White was in Wash 1IsgSon. Nevertheless, the vss,tor was ad- nitted at once. and spent nearly an hour in close conversation Ets1 Secretary Hay.
 At the beginning 11r. White put himself on safe footing by informing tfle secre- tsry t1e he had no credentials and no of ficial character whatever. He frankly ad- nttted, however, that he was tn the United States for the purpose Of aiding his coun- trymen to enlist tie sympathy of the American peorte.
 The secretary was much Interested in Mir. Wnates statement, as was shown by the fact that he accorded h.sn an hours au- dience in efae busiest moments of the day without Interruption. The subject of the conversation was the state of affairs in the Transvaal, and no etatement of what passed beyond that was o5tainable.

TEXAS LEGISLATURE
 IN SPECIAL SESSION
Has Convened to Consider the Proposed Bill Regarding Taxes-IndicatIons Point
 to Defeat of the Measure.

Austin, Tex, Januar 2S.-The Texas iegls- 1ature was convened in special session to- day for the consideration of a proposition submitted by the state tax commission created at the Last session of the legislature to revise the entire taxaeion system of the state.
 The governors message explanatory of the proposed bill was submitted soon after the two houses met today, and after It's reading the legislature adjourned uniil to- morrow, when tine active consideration of the proposed taxation law will begin. This measure Is far reaching. being termed a drag net that will greatly increase incorpor- alton and personal property taxes and is, fin many instances, so drastic that it has oc- casioned much opposition. In fact, a poll of the legislature shows that many Of the members are opposed to the bill, and there promises to be a very lively. and certainly a lengthy, fight over its constderation.
 The corporations suffer severely in the levy of taxes under this proposed law, and the taxation of mortgages and notes as con templated in the bill will occasion a fight from a large portion of the wealthy people of the state, as well as %he banking inter- ests.
 The outlook at present is not favorable for the passage of the bill.

Bad Year for ScalparS

From the Indianapolis Journal.

Then general passenger agents of Indiana polls lines are not currying favor with scalp CTS to the extent they did in former years. This Is due to the fact thar. the Central Traffic Passenger association so often test ed the market that even the weak lines are cautious In allowing scalpers to handle their tickets. The interchangeable mileage books, despite the fact that they get hold of but few of them. are doing them bnt little good, and they have to depend largely on the sale of local tickets. and they have hariled on Sundays a considerable n,1mher of Sunday excursion tickets One local scalper says he would readily accept a good position and close his office were one offer cd him. so much is the business hampered by the efforts of the strong lines to crush out scalping offices.
