HAVING found that he had guessed
wrong OF Arkansas sentiment, both
as to himself and the theory of ex-
pansion, Governor Dan w. Jones re-
tired from the contest for U. S. Sena-
tor on the 23rd. This will give SEN
ator Berry another walk-over. Jones
had a regular Jeff Davis walk-over
for Governor-but it seems our people
don't mean anything serious by elect
ing a man governor anyway.

slow to fall into line. For two weeks
these two peripatetic preachers labored

break finally came, two more weeks were
required to garner the sheaves. The re-

WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-The winter

inaugurated, marks the beginning of

States Consul General Mason at Berlin

doned at the demand of the extreme
protectionists or Agrarian party. This
latter controversy, says the consul gen.

German progress and prosperity and has
divided the empire into two opposing
camps which have entered into the bill

ton. That Gersclan industries and COM
merce have powerful favers through the
treaties, Mr.. Mason continues, no one
ventures to doubt but the Agrarians
declare that the benefits of the recipe
cral policy hay2 .hered wholly to the
manufacturing classes, leaving the agri-
cultural classes to struggle against i'm
ports of products from countries favored
The Agrarians hold that on account of
the increase in German manufactures ag-
ricultural products are meeting with in
creasing competition. The other party
claims that it would not be wise to
change Germany's fiscal policy and by
abolishing the present treaties encourage
reprisals in which the empire would be
at fatal disadvantage. number of

works hitherto mad enjoyed practical

of cheap and rapid production in the

of the resistance to any policy which
may, by increasing the cost of food

Government Control Out of Place
in Matters Requiring the

CHICAGO, Dec. 8.-President James J.
Hill, of the Great Northern railway, was
the guest of the Bankers club at the
monthly dinner tonight He was expect
cd to speak upon the subsidy bill now
pending in congress, but his remarks
were eXtemporaneoUs and briefer than
mad been expected upon this subject
The club, previous to the address of Mr.
Hill, passed a resolution requesting the
president to reappoint Lyman J. Gage
secretary of the treasury
Mr.. Hill spoke at considerable length.
discussing matters of interstate and in
terna ttonal commerce, and in the first
part of his remarks he merely alluded
to the subsidy bill by saying that he had
made some inquiry concerning the build
ing Of boats in this country and up5n the
Clyde, and found that he could have them
constructed in this country a much
lower figure than in Scotland This. he
declared, did not look much as Though a
subsidy was needed for shipping #
such measure were passed it would in
his opinion, assist most those who need
least assistance and he mentioned the
ocean greyhounds,' - as those most likely
to be benefited He then branched out
into a talk on the elatter of controlling
the railways by legislation, and declared
the matter was one none but experts IN
de1stood. The railroads could not be more
properly handled in this way than a
broken rib could be set by statute
In the close of his speech he came again
to the subsidy bill, sand said concerns
ing it:
HILL ON SUBSIDIES
sit is an excellent thing if it is not
abused. I believe that if we could pay
tonnage on the actual commodities of
certain kind based on the distance car
ried, there would be some justice in a
subsidy. analysed the first bill that
was drawn carefully and found that out
of $9,OOO,OOO about $7,500.00O went to what
is known as the American line owned
by gold friends OF mine and nice gem
tlemen They are always very kind
to me when / am crossing. 1t the same
time why should We as a nation pay
nine millions a year for thirty years and
have ven-eighths of it 20 to ten or
twelve ships? | am glad to say that
when attention was called TO this ths
bill was amended, and il is now III much
better shape. The nine millions is To
be distributed pro rata among all the
ships that sail under the American flag,
and they have Set apart 30 per cent
of the appropriation for the Pacific
ocean. No doubt some OF my friends
thought they Were serving me, and in
one sense perhaps they were, Out
would much rather see them take the
duty off plates that are to go into the
ships when they are built. When con
gress appropriates $1S0.0GOOOO for a class
of ships that will reduce the cost OF
carrying our commerce we will have Il
right to feel that they have done well,
but we do not think that they should
give the bulk of it to twenty or twenty
one ships that are only compelled to run
twenty-one knots once 10 the sati-lac-
ton OF the government official detailed
