When Hon. w. J Bryan ad

When Hon. w. J Bryan ad-
dressed the citizens of WinSlow
at the Opera House, on his re-
turn from his western tour, and
after w. H. Burbage, National
Committeeman, had introduced
him in a few we'll chosen SEN
tences, Mr.. Bryan opened his
address with these remarks: "I
had no intention of stopping at
any place in Arizona, other than
Phoenix and Prescott, but out of
regard to Mr.. Burbage, your Ma
tional Committeeman, I was
prevailed upon by him to stop
and say a few words to the citi-
zens of his home. - Our citizens
should remember this instance
of forethought and good will on
the part of Mr.. Burbage and no
doubt they will. He never over
looks an opportunity to further
the interests of northern Ari-
zona and Navajo county espe-
cially. He has been heard by
the writer to regret that Flag
staff and Williams could not
have had the same opportunity
as WinslOw to hear Mr.. BRYAN,
but owing to Winslow being a
terminal point and eating sta
ton, a lay over for our distin-
guished guest was more conve-
nient here, and the other towns
mentioned were not sighted
in this respect, through any dis
courtesy.
THE MAIL recommends Mr..
Burbage to the delegates to the
National Democratic Convention
as National Committeeman for
the ensuing term. He has filled
the position in the past, both
with honor and credit to the
democratic party in Arizona.
He has at all times been ready
and willing to drop his private
business, and give his time and
means for the good of the party.
For nearly twenty years he has
lived in northern Arizona, and
during that entire time he has
been an active and earnest work
er for the cause of democracy,
without any hope of reward save
the success of the principles ad-
vocated by the party. He is not
an aspirant for any position
within the gift of the national
executive. There is no appoin-
tive position accredited to Ari-
zona that he seeks or would ac-
cept, therefore THE MAIL thinks
that, in considera tion of his past
earnest, unselfish and disinter-
ested labors for the cause of de-
mocracy, it is the least the par
ty can do to honor him with the
only position we honestly be-
lieve he would accept, namely
National Democratic Commit
teeman for Arizona.

Editor Advertiser: The first year of

agreeable surprise to all well-wishers.
Most of the seaman's time is spent

and he has responded in a noble man

seamen show in short religious serv-

heartfelt gratitude of the seamen.

Watertight Compartments.

A great feature in modern ship
building with it's leviathans, is the i'm
portant matter of having numerous
water-tight compartments in one YES
sci together with the means to be
adopted for their speedy and efficient
closure in case of sudden accidents,
causing much thought and discussion
amongst marine engineers and archi-
tects. The Norddeutscher Lloyd have
purchased the rights of new patent
in this respect, which has proved such
a success that it is intended to fit all
the Norddeutscher Lloyd liners with
the apparatus hereafter described.
Each bulkhead door below the NAM
deck is connected with a large hydrau-
Tic closing apparatus, having a pres

TRUST POLICY AGREED ON.


Washington, Jan. 23.-0ne subject
upon which Mr.. Bryan conferred at
length with democratic senators and
representatives during his recent
visit was the antitrust policy. The
proposition to license trusts and to
bring them under federal supervision
was advocated strenuously by the can
didate and discussed favorably by the
democrats invited to the conferences.
The plan contemplates a law which
shall require corporation having
factories or establishments in two OF
more states to take out a government
license as n condition for doing bust
ness. A system of inspection by spe-
cial examiners, somewhat after the
forms pursued with national banks,
is TO be devised. In this way trusts
are to be regulated and the evils elm
mated by congressional Legislation.
Southern senators who participated
in the conferences claim that they OBJ
tanned Mr.. Bryan's acquiescence in
the following definite form of Phi.
ippine policy:
First-The insurrection to be put
down.
Second-A government to be estab-
lished by the United States.
Third-Loeal sovereignty to be ac'
knowledged when the stability of the
government is fully assured, the
United States to have naval base
and commercial privileges and to eS.
ercise protectorate functions as re-
CARDS other nations.
Fourth-The Philippine govern.
ment, when recognized, to issue bonds
with which TO reimburse the United
States for the s2O,OO0,OOO paid to Spain
and for other expenses incurred.
