ing Trips.
WANT CASH WITH THE ORDERS

A general protest is being made
against the prevailing custom of re-
serving sleeping car berths. 1t has
been a time-honored practice with
railroads to allow patrons to reserve
berths days and sometimes weeks in
advance of the day of the departure
merely by name. The berths are
held for the reservoirs until a few
hours before the departure of the
train, when they are cancelled and if
possible resold.
As no deposit is required at the
time the reservation is made it is said
that travellers are very careless about
releasing the berths when the journey
is not to be made. This often leads
to embarrassing situations. Officers
of the Pullman company have COM
planned to the railroads regarding the
manner in which the sleeping car ar
rangements have been made.
Pullman Company Complains.
The Pullman people say that the
custom of reserving space by name
and not by cash has grown recently
to a considerable extent and submit
statements showing reservations made
on particular line for a certain pc.
riod, and the number of them not
called for or released in time to allow
reselling of the space. On one OF
the roads named during a period of 1C
days the unused space that had been

SENATOR A. r. TALBOT,
Bryan's Law Partner

AS law partners. they never fell out
or became cross with each other in a
business or social way. Each always
insisted upon the other taking the
best end of everything. Talbot is
blond, Bryan dark; Talbot is a
Methodist, Bryan a Presbyterian;
Talbot sanguine, Bryan cautious;
Talbot always worked up the firms
side of case, while Bryan looked up
the authorities on the other side and
mapped out the case that could be
made against their client; Talbot was
q repu blican then, but is now for
Bryan; and Bryan a democrat. and
when they both showed signs of bald
ness, Talbot's hair began to fall out in
front and Bryan's in back.
Upon one occasion Talbot was chair
man of the republican city committee
of Lincoln and Bryan was chairman
of the democratic city committee.
Both headquarters were In the same
office. Often it is asked:
Who does Bryan regard as his
best friend?" 1t would seem that
honor belongs TO either Law Partner
Talbot or Richard L. Metcalfe, editor
of the Omaha World-Herald. Charles
A. TowDe. of Minnesota, probably
comes next in his affections. George
Fred Williams. of Massachusetts,;
Tomlinson. of Georgia; Stone of Mis-
souri,, and Tarvin, of Kentucky, are
loved by Bryan.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1900-08-23

No doubt William Jennings Bryan
feels more deeply indebted to Senator
A. r. Talbot, his law partner, than to
any other man in the United States.
Senator Talbot can claim large credit
for Bryan's coming out. OF course.
Bryan is a self-made man, but Talbot
figures prominently in his history. 1t
was Talbot who invited and urged the
candidate to locate in Lincoln.
BRYAN, located. sought the opportuni-
ty and marched steadily to the from
ranks.
Bryan was on his way west visit
ing, and he stopped off at Lincoln for
Ia few days. Talbot had just gradu-
ated from college. like Bryan, and
was trying to establish a law practice.
He persuaded Bryan to stick in the
town and join him in the fight for
success. Had not Talbot persisted.
Byran would never, perhaps, have
lived in Lincoln, nor won a seat in
congress. Not being in congress, he
could not have made the great speech
that gave him renown. Without re-
nown. he would not have been invited
to lecture or make that other famous
speech in the Chicago convention that
won for him the presidential nomina-
ton four years ago.
So Senator Talbot figures from first
to last as q foundation stone in the
ifework of William Jennings Bryan.

he gives performance unequaled by
any in the country. This year many
new features were added. and every
body seemed more than pleased. One

the target shooting of Maj. Lille

reserved amounted to over sixty
berths.
Railroad officers say the justice of
the Pullman complaint is apparent.
If the space is engaged only by name
and not called for it operates to the
detriment of their patrons who have
been turned away for lack of space, and
this in turn reflects upon the manage
ment of the railways. The practice
causes agents to refuse patrons who
desire to pay cash down and in many
instances forces the operation of extra
cars.

Just what may be done in the mat
ter without offending patrons is what
is bothering the railroad officers. All
are of the opinion that berths reserved
but not paid for should be either
taken or released in time to allow q
reselling. Officers of several of the
big roads operating out of Chicago
are preparing instructions to their
agents requesting them to curtail, as
far as possible, the reserving of berths
too far in advance or releasing them
on too short notice.
