Bryan-BrIef Interview WIN
Former Candidate.


ROANOKE, Va. July 2-Nm. }
Bryan was here a short time tbs AFTER
noon on his way TO Pocahcn-as' Fe-'
where ne spoke tonight. lie made Il
short speech here. Mr.. Bryan sail the
questions that several years ago A11l-
mated the Chicago platform he had stood
for because he believed in them. he
had not changed his mind when the
Kansas City platform was enlarged TO
suit certain conditions. The Demo-
cratic party, he said. was all right when
it came TO additions but not in subtrac-
ton. No backward step would De taken
but whether 1t did or not 1t would De
the same with him. He had said the
question was not whether they should
win but whether they should do what
was right. He would do the right and
abide the consequences. The Demo-
cracy's duty was to advocate prinei-
pies. The results would be beyond the
party. II the blood was bad and a boil
came they would keep coming until
something wa taken to cleanse the
blood.
Mr.. Bryan said in conclusion:
II am fighting on. not so much TO win,
for | would rather die fighting for right
than win fighting for something else.

|MY a DAYS BEFORE WHEElINGS GRAND FREE CARNIVAL and MARD| GRAS, JULY 8-3

| Council should not pass over this matter
lightly, that his company had tried TO
give the people good service, and to-
day IT was e~ndeavoring to better 1t.
! He spoke OF Mr.. Kimball, who was
formerly Connected with the Wheel
ing Traction Company, and who got
out of it in quick order, and stated
hat Mr.. Wilson, Of P~ittsburg,
who was rated at about $4,000,
and that Mr.. Kimball, he did not think,
could borrow fifteen cents in this city.
Mr.. Dickinson stated that he thought
he could borrow that amount Mr.. Hoi-
loway said the secret OF this
whole business is that Mr..
Kimball left here and became
connected with the Rapid Transit
Co. of Syracuse, from which he was
fired out, and nov wants to get back
at some of the Syracuse people.
Mr.. Dickinson, of Wheeling, stated
that Mr.. Kimhball had built a road
at Syracuse and owned all of the COM
mon stock. and when he left them he
made them settle, and that in a bank in
Wheeling there was a contract for a
right of way over the Terminal
bridge and that was the way they would
enter Wheeling, and would only charge
a five cent fare. Mr.. Holloway asked
If Mr.. Kimball did not draw on him
(Dickinson) and that he did not pay
the draft. Mr.. Dickinson stated he did
not pay the draft. Mr.. Wilson said that
they asked for a franchise before the
Wheeling. Traction Company ever
thought OF it, and that they were rep
resented by James B.. Mckee and Al
fred Paul, who were satellites for the
Wheeling Transit Company ever
was denied by Mr.. Holloway. Then he
gave City Solicitor Cooke a hit and
said Mr.. Holloway knew Mr.. Kimball
had money to build the road. Mr.. Hoilo-
way said he did not think he had. Will
son said he did not believe 1t, and Hoi-
loway said you are another.
". B. Franris stated that some of the
consents was not property owners.
Mr.. Duncan made a strong speech,
asking Council to lay this ordinance
on the table. Mr.. Wilson. Francis, Dick
inson and Mr.. Lipphardt also made re-
marks. J. c. Gray spoke against the
ordinance, and gave the Ohio Rapid
Transit Co. a tearing up, and there
came pretty near being a rough house
owing to Mr.. Robbins, taking exceptions
to Mr.. Gray's remarks. Solicitor Cooke
lCdu ii hulIDt u 'o
Mr.. kimball amounting to over $4,000.
Mr.. Wilson spoke again for the ordln-
! anee. Attorney 7. w. Shreve spoke
against the ordinance, and for the in
terests of the new township roads to
be built. and spoke for the interests
of better soads, asking Council to defer,
action until the commissioners had
settled the road question. AT this point
all of the railway men wanted to talk
and Council called them to order, and
voted on a motion by Mr.. Robbins 20
pass the ordinance, to its second read
ing. which was carried by a vote of
7 to 3,being a great victory for the Ohio
Rapid transit company. At this time
| Council was pretty tired, and tie bal
ance of business was of minor import
anee, and they adjourned, all being
tired.

THE AMERICAN GIRL.

My study of the American girl has been twofold; first in Paris, and after wards at her home At first I considered her simply refreshing change from the stereotyped English girl, good to look at and good to talk with. It was apparent, even then, that American girls would become famous in Paris for their unusual gifts of conversation and their general good looks l. soon was able to drive down any of the great avenues at home and pick them out as I saw them pass. They had more distinction in their looks and manner than the girls of any other country; a freedom in their walk, and conscious pride in their expression. They never have had difficulty in mak- ing places for themselves i'll the life of Paris. But though I knew some thing of them abroad, it was not until my present tour of this country that I began to know them as they are. They have many qualities for which I look in vain among the belles of France, and they can rival by countrywomen now in beauty and dress. First of all, 1 think they have more general cul- ture, and are better educated. l have been astounded, in going about the country, to observe the numbers of large and fiourishing colleges for wo- men which everywhere exist. One can hardly believe that there are so many women seeking higher education" as you call it here And the young wo- men I have met showed the results of this education. They were able to dis cuss innumerable subjects intelligent ly. I could hardly mention any branch of art of which they were ignorant, and usually they could talk we'll on the drama, poetry, and art.-Sarah Bern hardt, in June Success"
