Hector Adams Holmes was born at North
Hero, VT, in 1926. His mother was the
first white woman born in North Hero
He was especially noted for his i'm
provements and inventions for agricul-
tural implements. He engaged In farm
ing in Lawrenceville, N. Y, and while
there made his first improvements.
In 1866 he moved to Lansing, Mimi,
chine to gather grain from a harvester
into a bundle and tie it with string,
cut off the string and throw the bundle
to the ground. For some time he worked
as pattern maker in order to perfect his
invention, which he did at Owatonna,
Mimi. in 1876. The following year he
began their manufacture and the first
fifty were sold at $50 a piece. In 1877 the
success of the machine was so great that
J: Russell Parsons, of the Walter a: ", WOOD

DEMOCRATIC HARMONY HOT AIR
Bryan ~ n DisintegratOr.
Minneapolis Journal

nAAAANabNAE SOuAhdAs
. Bryan's recent pronunciamentos mark
distinctly his ideas Of democratic har-
mony." In his autocratlc way he has read
out Of the democratic party old stagers of
that party who voted the democratic ticket
before he was out Of short clothes, and the
younger element, who have discovered that
the cross OF gold" speech was made by a
populist enthusiast and that Bryan never
was a democrat after the manner laid down
In the canons Of Jefferson. Jackson, Tilden
and Cleveland. Way back in october. 1893,
the democrats Of Nebraska held their state
convention at Lincoln and adopted a plat
form by a large majority in which they en-
dorsed President Cleveland, and especially
favored his recommendation to congress for
the repeal Of the silver purchase clause Of
the Sherman act and called for its prompt
repeal. Thereupon young Mr.. Bryan famed
up from his seat, and. waving his arms
frantically, declared that, II the party en-
dorsed such action, 81 want to promise
that l will get out and serve my country
and my God under some other name, II I
go alone" Subsequently Bryan accepted
the nomination Of the national populist
party. at st. Louis. in 1895, to the presi-
dency, and also that Of the populist-con-
quered democratic party, and in 1900 he
did the same thing. He had nothing to do
with the democratic party until II was
%populized. AS he swore in 1898, he went
out under some other name" and hat
name was ~"populist." That element IA
vors him yet, so far as II can.
As a disintegrator Of the democratic party
Bryan has been q stunning success. He
is striving to continue that work through
the Commoner, in which he seeks to utter
something sensational every week and to
refute the statement OF the old leaders
that he is politically dead and cannot be
revived, whatever he may say on the stump
and in the Commoner.
The number Of democrats who are squirm-
ing over the consciousness Of the extent to
which they have been fooled by him is in
creasing, but. after being knocked of the
coachman's seat of the democratic vehicle,
Bryan cllngs to the boot, yelling directions
to the half dozen distracted individuals who
are trying 10 gather in the lines and keep
the animals under control. II is a sight
to convulse gods and men.

STORIES rHAr oorrLior.

In the arguments in the railroad tax
case before the Nebraska supreme court
the railway attorneys undertook to COM
bat the assertion that the railroads Of
this state had immensely increased In
value and should therefore be assessed
for taxation at figures greater instead Of
less than ten years ago. From their
piteous pleas one would gather the i'm
preston that the greater part Of the
mileage was not paying operating ex-
penses and that they were unable now
to bear even the burden of taxation they
formerly carried without complaint.
A story which conflicts with this dis
NAL picture comes from an authority
equally, IL not better, versed in railway
finances than the railway attorneys. 1t
is an interview just given out by John
w. Gates, who has been prominent in
financing various railway mergers, in
which he says:
People have but q remote idea Of the
magnificent condition Of most Of the rail-
roads Of the west. unless they have
traversed them within the past three or
four years. The railroads have been
earning so much money that their great
est trouble has been to hide a large por-
tion Of their net earnings, and this they
have done by charging them to operating
expenses. Today there is scarcely a
prominent railroad in the United States
that has not millions OF dollars in its
treasury. which it 10 continually using to
better the condition OF Its roadbed, to put
in new steel bridges in place Of wooden
structures, to cut out curves and cut down
grades, to erect new docks and generally
to enhance the value of lite property with
out materially decreasing the rate Of
dividend.
The railroad interests of this country
are to go through a continual process of
consolidation. Small lines will be
absorbed by larger ones. Tit tendency Of
freight rates in the United States will
within the next ten years be lower and
yet the profits Of the railroads will, in
my judgment, be even greater with the
lower rates, owing to the improvements
In rolling stock and motive power, road
bed, the cutting out OF curves and cutting
down Of grades and increasing train loads.
The amount Of money paid out by rail-
road companies in rebates since the pas
sage Of the interstate commerce law in
1886 would, in my Judgment, almost pay
the national debt. What has made the
railroads poor has been the carrying of
people for nothing and cutting nominal
tariffs actually In two in many instances.
The railroad situation IN tho United
States today. however. is better than ever
in it's history.
If what Mr.. Gates has said is true, as
it undoubtedly is, the lament of the rail-
way attorneys and tax commissioners
that u railroads are overtaxed must be
pure fiction. 1t might not be inappro-
pirate for the defenders Of railway tax
Sinking to get in touch with Mr.. Gates
and try to reconcile their stories.

MISUNDERSTANDING SENATOR prErs1o5

Many eastern papers are indulging In
comment on a highly sensational story,
wired out Of Lincoln last week, purport-
ing to be an account of the meeting of
the republican state committee, and rep
~resenting that the committee turned
down" Senator Dietrich. These papers
make out that the senator was an "un-
hidden guest" at the meeting, to which
he made a personal appeal for endorse
ment, only to meet a sharp rebuf. To
some of these accounts is coupled the
assertion that the senator is at outs
with State Chairman Lindsay and other
equally discordant ~fabrications designed
to discredit him with those Ignorant of
the truth.
The Bee does not hesitate to brand
these stories as made out of the whole
cloth. One of Its editors is a member
Of the republican state committee and
was present throughout its recent meet
ing. Nothing whatever occurred at
that meeting in the nature Of a break
between Senator Dietrich and the COM
ullIlcc VI It's CudlTmdn. IN the contrary,
the senator was present along with
Congressman Burkett and other nomi-
nees for congress and for state offices,
at the invitation Of the committee
through It's chairman. The senator was
called upon to address the committee
and was cordially received, although his
very brief remarks were simply to the
effect that as the members had gathered
from all parts of the state for business,
he would not interrupt their delibera.
tons, but would hold himself at all
times and in every possible way at the
service Of the committee for the promo.
ton Of the campaign work. His remarks
set the keynote for the other guests az
they were called upon, who sl spoke
substantially In the same tenor.
1t is only fair to Senator Dietrich
that the baseless and malicious reports
be corrected.

Pan-American Grafters.


What the creditors of the Pan-American
exposition need is an organization for pro-
lection against the peculiarly insolent and
rapacious mob of "grafters" who made that
il-starred venture a financial loss and
scandal. The amount of valid claims
for material furnished, construction work
done and services rendered-is about $780,
900. Toward liquidating this Indebtedness
congress has voted $500 900. and it is this
reserve we'll spring of national bounty
which now enlists the earnest attention
Of greedy promoters and lobbyists. They
want a commission Of 10 per cent from
each creditor as payment for securing tho
appropriation, and the chances are that
they will get It. unless the Treasury de-
partment shall refuse absolutely to recog-
nize any agreements Of addition, division
and silence between creditors and jobbers
in federal legislation.
