No interest has more fully participated
In the general prosperity of the last two
years than the railroads. In nearly every
case earnings for the greater part OF the
time having been limited only by their
facilities for doing business. Confidence Of
railway officials in the continuance OF this
prosperity is shown by the issuance of large
orders for new equipment of all kinds with
which to handle expeditiously the increase
OF traffic The Big Four has now build
ing or in process of delivery twelve modern
passenger coaches. four baggage and pos
tai cars. four dining cars. 1900 box cars

comotives. and will soon place an order
for twelve heavy freight engines Then
Pennsylvania lines have asked for bids for
5000 freight cars and will build 40 loco
motives within the next few months The
Missouri Pacific has placed orders for 900
freight cars and fifty new locomotives,
the locomotives TO be delivered within the
months of February. March. April and
May. They are all 10 be ten-wheelers, and
only six of the fifty will be passenger en-
gines. The Lake Shore has contract for
five hundred coal cars and will purchase
one thousand box cars. The Baltimore &
Ohio, the Pcre Marquette and the St. Louis
& San Francisco are receiving bids for
large increase in freight equipment. and
there is no doubt that the orders that will
b. issued within sixty days for new rolling
stock will amount TO many millions of dol
lars and will be sufficient To keep car shops
running for a long time to come. insuring
employment to thousands of mechanics and
laborers- In October contracts were
awarded for 12,0O2 cars of all kinds, for the
same period IA locomotives were ordered.
and II is stated that the orders of this
month will largely exceed those of October.
Meantime much is being done in improv-
ing roadbeds. The Pennsylvania lines have
placed orders for 120, 600 tons of new steel
rails, the Southern Railroad for 10000 tons,
the Louisville & Nashville for the same
quantity, the Chicago. Burlington x

of the Democratic national committee.
spent the day in Little Rock and left to-
night for Washington. ID. c. Before leav-
Ing he said. in an interview:
''The election result was a great surprise
to all Democrats All so confident of
success that the sweeping Republican vie
tory came as severe shock Even on the
evening of the day before election reassur-
ing teleSrams came from leaders that New
York was safe for Bryan and from leaders
in other pivotal States that Democracy
was sure 10 win Ii was these forecasts
which buoyed us UP to the last moment
and made the actual result more startling.
But Mr.. Bryan Is great man, one OF
the greatest in America to-day and his in
fiuencc will be felt for many years to come
In politics. lie IS giant in intellect and
simply indefatigable In the prosecution of
campaign. Whether he will be a candi-
date Tor the presidency i'm the near future
remains TO be seen. but Ii IL not probable
sumo that he would decline the nomination
even should il be offered to him.
Reorganization? Oh. thatt all nonsense
There's nothing i'm it and il will blow over
lin thirty days. Ii is pTecipitated by those
who deserted the party and gave aid and
comfort to the enemy and does not repre-
sent the strength or the spirit OF the
genuine Democracy. What they would do
is to adopt all the policies of the Repub.
llcan party and be Democrats only i'm name
But granting that there is cause or
strength for so-called reorganization, who
has the power within the party to do 1t
now? Not the disgruntled dsorganizers
who have raised the issue. If there is to
he a reorganization of national committee
or platform IL cannot be done for four
years, or until the next national conven-
ticn.
LAS 10 the issues, that must depend
largely upon the national and information
developments of the next four years Ii
may be laid down primarily, however, that
the Democratic party VIII never vary from
its established fundamentals, a strict con-
struction of the Constitution and unswerv-
ing adherence TO its principles. and an
economically administered government for
the benefit of the government. The sill
yer question may solve itself Should the
amount of gold produced be ample to main
tain a sufficient volume of metallic money
and insure the stability OF prices, the sill
YER question will be subordinated but
should the supply fall short of the de-
mands of trade the silver question will be
made prominent.
''The question of Imperialism may also
find a solution outside the ballot box /
believe the Supreme Court will decide
against the Porto Rico law and should this
be done there Will be revolution on the
part of the Republicans themselves against
the retention OF the Philippines. But Just
what the issues of 1904 will be no one can
pedict with any degree of certainty"
