create new issues TO be determined by
the people in their sovereign capacity

always been ready to submit to the
test Of full and free discussion every
question, believing that out of the con-
nict of ideas the truth will emerge. If
the principles of the Democratic party
are the best to guide the national gov

LIKE AN OLD HEN ON A DOOR KNOB
Hearst Describes the Attorney Gener-
ais Brooding on His Evidence
Against the Coal Trust.
CBy the Associated Press \


Washington, April 22.-'The Attorney.
General has been brooding over that ev:-
dence like an old hen on q dock knob for
eighteen months. He has not acted in any
way and won't let anybody take it away
from him." Representative William Ran.
dolph Hearst made this statement before
the House COMMITTEES on the Judiciary
today In arguing for favorable report
on this resolution calling on the 1tt0S-
ney-General for the evidence against the
anthracite coal carrying railroads which
includes the report of the United States
District Attorney for the Southern district
of New York, which Mr.. Hearst says was
that a case had been made out.
Mr.. Hearst demanded that action should
be taken either by tn, Attorney General
or that the House should appoint a com
mittee of seven of its members to compile
anew the evidence in possession of the
AttorneyGeneral with securing action
against these roads under the Sherman
Antitrust act. The committee referred
the Hearst resolution to a subcommittee
for further consideration.
Mr. Hearst claimed that when it be-
cana known to the six coai-carrying roaGs
that the independent--coal mine opera
tors contemplated building road of
their own to tidewater the roads bought
the property of Simpson and Watkins,
owning clevan colierlcs the largest of the
independent operators. They also bought
the Temple Iron company capitalized for
S240, 000 and re-capitaliZed it at $4,000 Geo
guaranteeing 16 per csnt annual interest
on this capitalization. The price of coal
in New York was then raised fifty cents
a ton, netting an increased annual earn,
ing of $40 ,000, 600. This, according to Mr..
Hearst constituted n violation of tte
Sherman Antitrust act.

EFFORT TO WRECK
Two CoIored Brakemen
Injured aid Four Cars
Demolished.
Especial to News and Observer.)


Ashevlle, N. c., April 22.-News was
received here today of villanous and sue
cessful attempt to wreck freight train
on the Asheville and Spartanburg branch
of the Southern Railway yesterday alter
noon about one mile west of Campbell
AT curve in the track cross-tle had
been securely fastened across the rails
and the engineer, running at a good rate
of speed, was on the obstruction before
he saw the tie. He instantly reversed his
engine and applied the emergency brakes.
The train trembled for second and then
struck. The obstruction held and the
work OF the train wreckers was success
full. Four of the freight cars were demol-
ished and a number OF others damaged,
though it is not known to what extent.
News of the wreck was sent to Superln-
tendent Ramseur of the Asheville divis-
ion and wrecking crew and train were
sent to the scene. The track and ground
was torn up for quite distance and the
track was effectually blocked for six
hours. No Is from Spartanburg, due
here about o'clock last night was over
four hours late on account of the wreck.
So. far as known there is no clue to the
perpetrators of the crime, although the
Southern officials have set diligently to
work to ferret out the case and if possible
bring the criminals TO justice. The pre-
sumption is that those bent on wrecking
the train had a grudge against the South
ern or some one of its employees or else
placed the obstruction on the track TO
catch the passenger train and miscalculat-
ed the time.
