LIVINGSTON ON TRUSTS
Georgia Representative Addresses
Virginia Democrats.
Pictures Results If Combinations of
Capital Are Permitted to Go On
Man-Predicts the Success of Bryan
If Democrats Do Their Duty.

conservative, thoughtful and exhaus-
tive address upon campaign issues was de-
livered by Representative l.. F. Living
ston of Georgia at the meeting of the
Virginia Democratic Association held last
night in Harper's Hall, C Street, between
Fourth and Sixth Streets northwest. The
audience was large and accorded the
speaker a full Iced of appreciation and
applause.
Mr.. Livingston discussed the trust prob
lem and referred to Senator Beveridge's
speech. made in Chicago Thursday night,
in which it was stated that the Democrat
&c party would do nothing in opposition
to the trusts. Nj. Livingston put the
question. why the trusts were not contrib
uting to the Democratic campaign fund
rather than TO the Republicans, who pro-
posed to regulate and limit them accord
ing to Mr.. Beveridge's statement.
The silver and negro questions, the
status of the Constitution, and the various
questions of political import, were care
fully analysed by the speaker. In con-
clusion Mr.. Livingston said in part:
Equal rights to all and special privi-
leges to none is all that poor men ask,
and all that rich men should ask. Why
should the common people have to do with
political questions? When / listen to

SENATOR MoRaAN's VIEWS.
He Discusses Governor RoosevcIt's
Western Campaign Tour.

Western Campaign Tour.
Senator Morgan came to Washington
yesterday from his summer home at Warm
Springs. Va. Discussing the campaign, he
said:
Il believe everything is pretty well set
tied in Alabama, with the exception of
one or two districts, where the Democrats
and Populists are having a little trouble
with each other. AS TO the probable out
come of the Presidential election, Bryans
strength is underestimated by the Re-
publican Committee. They are trying to
combat it in the West in the wrong way.
Il have thought from the time that
Western trip was planned for Governor
Roosevelt that the Republicans had made
a mistake. There are more men in the
West who have made up their minds how
20 vote. in proportion TO the population.
than IL the East. Western men are still
of the character OF pioneers and are mon
of strong convictions and they decide
firmly how they stand on public questions.
| mean that q greater majority of them
do than in the East. There is more wob-
bling of the great majority in the East
than in the West Now, Colonel Roose-
welt is an Eastern man. Whether he has
Western ideas or not, he is not a West
ern man. and the people of the West are
not going to be influenced bY any stump
ing through admiration OF Colonel Roose-
velt's Western sympathies. The Victor.
Col, affair will not meet with the appro-
val of the Western people. Such things
do not enlist approval In any community.
Alabama is just as firmly settled for
Bryan as any State could be. and If Col
onel Roosevelt will come down there. l
venture to say II would be made big
Joke OF. 1t wouldn't be taken seriously.
OF course he has no notion of coming down
there. If he did he would be heard with
respect. don't believe that the mining
troubles in Pennsylvania and other sec
tions will cut much figure in the election.
As for the charge that the Democratic
Committee was influential in bringing out
the order for the general strike. l don't
believe it. Either party would fight shy
of getting mixed up in such matter. 1t
will be over and cut no figure in Noyem-
Der, l believe, from the outlook

"Big Thunder" Starts on His VOynge
From OIdtown, Me.

OLDToWN. Me. Sept 2s.-The much
talked-of voyage by canoe from Indian
Island, Oldtown. to Washington, d. c.,
was begun yesterday, when Frank Loring,
commonly known as big Thunder" and
Peter Nocola launched their birch craft
and started out upon their long trip.
Aside from tent and a few cooking uten-
sils, care was taken not TO ship too much
of a cargo aud thus endanger the canoe
when it strikes the rough waters of Pc
nobscot Bay and the Atlantic.
There are many carries" between Old
town and Bangor so that the first twelve
miles of this peculiar voyage involved
more real hard work than its participants
expect to encounter hereafter. If Big
Thunder and his companion ever get be
yond Rockland Breakwater. they rave got
invitations by the score to stop and rest
at the various lighthouses and watering
places along the coast
The objective point is Washington D.
C. Hundreds of Penobscot citizens Will
follow the course of these two hardy
braves with exceptional interest. The trip
is calculated to occupy about a month.

One of Evarts' Cleverest.

Probably the mot of Mr. Evarts' most
widely flown concerns the apochryphai

The story goes that a party Of tourists
visiting the haunts OF Washington. in
Virginia, came to the spot where the
anecdote was related by some local anti
quarry. to illustrate the prodigious strength
Of the man whom Providence made child
less that he might become the father
Of his country.
Aside from the unlikelihood that the
thrifty George would throw silver dollar
over the river when a pebble would have
done as well. the distance was so great
that the skeptlcs were incredulous. and
another legend seemed on the edge OF be-
