government and whose heart embraced
the human race"
Senators Pettigrew and Carmack
failed to respond to the toasts set for
them. The latter's speech on Jefferson
and Lincoln, was read by Congressman
ShafrOth of Colorado. Other speakers
and their t0asts were:
Cur Duty" Representative David
A De Almond of Missouri; jackson"
oUhn T. Altgeld OF Illinois, and Lin
coin" Ex-senator Charles a. Towne of
Minnesota.
National Scope for League.
This afternoon a conference was held
to consider the proposition to enlarge
the scope of the Jefferson, Jackson and
Lincoln lsAgue, which has up to this
time been purely local organization.
About 900 Democrats, the greater pOr-
ton Of whom were from Ohio, were in
attendance. There were representa-
tives also from Pennsylvania, West
Virginia and Indiana, Illinois, Michi-
gan, Minnesota and Mississippi. Con-
gresham Lentz acted as chairman Of
the conference. He said it had been
suggested that the league he reorgan-
lied along state or national lines and
invited the views of those present.
Willis J. Abbott suggested that A com
mittee of five be appointed on cOnSti-
tuition to amend the present instru-
ment, so that it would apply to a state
and national organization, and 4 mo-
ton to that effect was adopted. 1t was
agreed that the next meeting should
ne in Buffalo. during the Pan-Amerfcan
exposition. and it was decided to ap-
point a committee representing each
state IN the organization to have charge
OF the Buffalo meeting.

Columbus, O., Feb. 12.-Lincoln dag
was celebrated here tonight by the
JEFFERSON, jackson and Lincoln league,
with a dollar dinner at the Columbus
Auditorium. There We're fully 1900
persons seated at the tables which oc-
cupied the floor of the immense hall,
and 1000 more were seated in the gal
leuies, thrown open to spectators. Many
women were among those at the ia

beverages stronger than coffee
The feature Of the evening was the
demonstration in honor Of ". J. Bryan.
The Nebresk was received with loud
applause when ne entered the hall, but
the crowd fairly went wild when Mr..
Bryan was introduced to speak. Men
climbed upon chairs and cheered again
and again and il was some minutes
before the noise subsidized.

introduced Mr.. BRYAN.

Bryan to you, 1 introduced him as the

Need for Jeffsrsonian Principles.
Following is an abstract of Mr.. Bry-
ans speech:
Never has this nation been more in
need than it is today Of an earnest and
thorough revival of Jeffersonian prin-
ciples. While other statesmen, ap-
pearing at different crises and meeting
the responsibilities of their respective
times, have made partial application
of democratic principles, Jefferson is
the only one who formulated a demo-
cratic code applicable to all times, all
situations and all people.
AT this time when the money
changers are in absolute control of the
government and are shaping the ma
tons financial policy in their own in
terests, without regard for the welfare
Of the people at large, we need to re-
call Jeffers0n's scathing arrangement
Of those who demand the surrender into
their hands Of the sovereign functions
Of government.
Banks Must Not Govern.
He pointed out that the safety of the
people lay in a. policy that would drive
the banks out OF the governing bust
AT this time. when corporate mo-
nOpOly is fast extinguishing industrial
independence, we need a revival of the
JeffersOnian spirit. which demands a
government administered according to
the doctrine of equal rights TO all and
special privileges to none.
AT this time. when commercialism
is soaring the conscience of the ma
ton when the worship of Mammon is
leading the people to ignore inalien-
able rights; when the ideals bought
with blood and sacrifice are to be bar
tered away for the specious and delu-
sive promises OF empire-at this time,
1 repeat, we need to have our faith in
man as man, and our love for man as
brother. rekindled by the memory of
this mighty patriot, philosopher and
democrat, whose brain comprehended
the height and depth and breadth of

Senator Hanna received a tremend-
Gus ovation as he arose to respond to
the toast. THE Business Man in Poll
tics" He said, in part:
Politics is business, and very severe
business at that. The influence of the
business man in politics is more far
reaching than one would at first
ina sine. The great mass of working
men who are the employees of capital,
and therefore the partners Of capital,

Whitelaw Reid spoke to the toast.

speaking of Cuba:
There is no eagerness to annex the
island. Rather, there is a dread of
such a connection, lest it lead to state
hood and so prove the entering wedge

republic which would inevitably work
its ruin. But the duty of protection
remains.

SUBSIDY GRAB LAID ASIDE.
Senate Devotes It's Attention t.
Agricultural Bill.

Senate Devotes It's Attention t.
Agricultural Bill.
Washington. Feb. 12-During the en-
tire session of the senate today the
agricultural appropriation bin was
under consideration. the subsidy bin
being laid over. After six hours al
consideration the bill was little more
than half completed. The debate upon
the measure dealt almost entirely with
administrative details of the depart
ment of agriculture, many commenda-
lions of the work of the department
being made by senators on both sides
of the chamber.
+ At the beginning of today's session
bill was passed appointing a commits
sion. consisting of the president of the
Society of. the Army of the Tennessee
the chairman of the joint committee or
library and the secretary OF war. to
select a site in the city of Washington
and have designs prepared for a MEM
Orial or statue of General L. S. Grant
the cost Of which shall not exceed
S250, 900.
The agricultural appropriation biU
carries 81 ,503, 500, the increase proposed
by the senate committee being S15S,S20.
The reading of the bill in full was
demanded by AIr. Sullivan (Miss.) Mr..
Proctor having objected previously sto
the consideration OF a bill Mr.. Sullivan
had called up.
Horse Meat Discussed.
Some discussion was precipitated
over the section of the bin relating to
meat inspection bureau. Mr.. Jones
(Ark.) cOntended that in the interest
of this country and its meat industries
all the meat products exported ought
to be carefully inspected and branded,
in order that the countries to which the
products were senT might be assured
of their genuineness Mr.. PettigreW
called attention to the paragraph re-
lating to live horses and the pro-
ducts and carcasses and products
thereof" and inquired if the United
States was packing and shipping
abroad horse meat. Mr.. Money, a mem
ben of the committee of agriculture,
replied that horse meat was being
shipped abroad to the Scandinavian
countries Epicures of those countries.
he said, regarded horse meat as a
delicacy, quite as much of a delicacy
as smoked reindeer meat, which it
closely resembles in appearance and
taste. Mr. Pettigrew insisted upon
knowing whether the horse meat was
exported under a brand showing that
it was horse meat and not smoked
reindeer, for instance.
Mr. Proctor replied that the secretary
of agriculture had explained to the
committee that 1T was shipped as horse
meat and that those who received IL
understood perfectly what they were
getting.
Power to Seize Impure Food
The last two hours of the session
were devoted to an amendment of the
committee comforting upon the secre-
tary of agriculture authority to in
spect and analyze foods, drugs or
LIQUORS imported from other countries
they are so adulterated as to be dele
terious to health; and if found to be
so, authorizing the secretary OF the
treasury to seize the goods at the re-
quest of the secretary of agriculture
and refuse to deliver them to The con-
signee.
