The appearance of Hon. J T.
VII S, of >tarke, in the Hewitt
murder trial here this week recalls
the remarkable record of a remark

1t Was the first appearance OF the
quiet, unassuming Bradford county

time he sat calmly in his seat, at,

beautiful and pathetic euIogy of

but on the day of which speak il
fell to the lot of Colonel Wills to
place himself at one bound in the
foremost rank of the orators of the
state
The topic which upon this occa-
sion aroused the Bradford county
mans ire or enlisted his sympathy,
has long since been forgotten. In
fact, when recently asked to recall
the details of that day, Colonel
Wills said the matter had entirely
evaporated from his mind.
At all events, it was during the
morning session when something
suddenly brought Mr.. Wills to his
feet. The house was half asleep

idle and inattentive wisdom of the
state. In five minutes the speaker
had risen above his usual CONVEX
satiOnal tone; in FIVE minutes more
his subject had borne him away
upon torrent of eIoquence, rapid,
bri liant and soul inspiring. And
when at he end of half an hour
the climax was reached, Colonel
Wills voice rang out like clarion

SANTA FEES STEADY ADVANCE,
Director Backs Up Statement Of S Per Cent
Dividend,

In discussing the February state
ment OF the Santa Fe road, published a
day or 50 ago, a director OF the COM
pany remarked:
THE statement is naturally very
gratifying to US. 1t reflects the excel
lent business conditions existing
throughout the west. We have every
reason to believe that these conditions
will last. We do not look for any ex-
traordinary crops this year, but all
present indications lead to the belief
that there will be an average crop.
The Santa Fe is now earning at the
rate Of 3 per cent on the preferred
stock n 2 per cent on the common.
Last year we charged of 1000, 900 to
profit n loss, which was intended to
cover n possible depreciation in the
property. The year previous we
charged OFF $500, 600. This year we will
charge OFF at least 1900, 900 and Their
probably Will show earnings of s per
cent on the preferred and / per cent
on the m We have increased
the dividend rate on our preferred
stock every six months from the time
we started dividends, and 1 believe
that this summer we will increase the
rate to a 4 per cent basis. This should
satisfy stockholders. IL earnings con-
unue TO show up "a at present there
IL no reason why dividends should
not be again increased at the end of
the year to a 8 per cen basis"

POSITION or THE PARTIES.

In an address a few days ago Sec
retry OF the Navy Long asked what
the democratic party has done in the
last four years to entitle 1t TO the gov
eminent and declared that IL had done
nothing. on the other hand, the re-
publican party has faithfully carried
out the principles OF the platform upon
which 1t was restoreu to power. The
tarin, said Mr.. Long, has been wisely
adjusted, revenue has been ample. in
dustlal Interests were never 50 pros
porous, and labor was never 50 we'll re-
warded. The question OF the currency
and the money standard has been set
tied and settled right, and the whole
country breathes with a sense OF relief
and Of content.
1t Is true the democratic party is not
In power, but IT stands to-day precise
~ where IL did four years ago in re-
gard TO all the issues Of that time. 1t
stu adheres to every doctrine and
principle of the platform which the
people then repudiated. Its leader and
assured candidate for the presidency
this year is as Jealous in his advocacy
of the free coinage OF silver as ne has
ever been; he is still engaged in array
ing class against class and In endeay-
oring to foster the spirit of sectional
ism he continues to appeal to popular
passion and prejudice. The democra-
tic party still stands for an economic
policy that would halt American indus.
