This is What a Correspondent Has To Say
About Them.

We are glad election is over. A man
will sit on the soft edge of an inch board
on fence and talk politics for three
hours, but just put him IN church pew
for forty minutes and he is so nervous
he twists and twitches until he finally
goes TO sleep. He will fill his mouth
with filthy tobacco until the juice runs
down his chin, but hair in the butter

Mr. Scidmore, of Three Rivers, has
introduced "A bill to pay bounty for kill
ing hawks. 1t is a question whether the
hawks do not render more service in the
destruction of mice and other hurtful
vermin than would pay for all their dep
rotations upon the poultry yards. That
is undoubtedly true of the owls. The
new game bill provided by the senate
committee includes what is known as the
Audubon bill of the national society for
the prevention of cruelty TO animals
which makes il misdemeanor TO kill a
song bird or any non-game bird, or TO
wear the plumage Of birds for personal
adornmeut A much needed protection
in another direction is proposed in bill

The storm center has been in the
senate the past week with high and low
areas shifting from one side of the cham
Der TO the other and back again, the con-
fiicting elements now on this side and
now on that, and net result that leaves
situations outwardly unchanged. The
disturbing force, of course, was the pri-
mary bill, which came out, and went
back again where it was, and the pre-
diction here made week ago is still ad-
hered TO, that the bill will finally be
passed by the senate not greatly altered
from that which the senate received
from the house. Senator Baird, as
chairman of the elections committee,
made good his promise, which was taken
perhaps as much as a threat as a prom
Use, to bring the bill out with provision
for all state officers or none. He reported
the bill Wednesday with endorsement of
a majority of the committee, amended

committee offered minority report sup
ported by two members against the
majority three, but il was held 10 be
not in order under the rules of the SEN
ate, and after an earnest struggle the
report was accepted by the senate by a
vote of twenty-five TO six, and was made
the special order for Wednesday, May 10.

The next day, however. saw the sit
uation changed. Effective influences
had been at work, and motion of Sen
ator Brown TO take the bill from the
special order precipitated the conflict
anew. After debate even more vigor
ous than that of the preceding day, the
motion prevailed by vote of sixteen to
fourteen, and the same gentleman
moved TO re-referit 10 the elections com
mittee with instructions TO report il
back on Tuesday with recommendation
that it be made special order for
Wednesday. This motion was carried,
and so the bill stood just where it did a
week before. There is this difference in
the situation, that the committee now
has definite instruction as to time of
report, and indication of the sentiment
Of the senate as 10 the sort of report that
would be approved.

held in honor of the memory of An
drew jackson. There We're addresses
in which William j. Bryan received
the largest share of applause, but Ma
tional Chairman Thomas Taggart was
also accorded an ovation. A letter
of regret was read from Melville e.
ingalls,. president of the Big -Four
Railway, who suggested an income
tax as a proper solution of problems
of taxation.
Mr. Taggart said in part:
1.-The national committee had not
only the cooperation of the executive
committee, but the earnest and loyal
support of every Steat and county
chairman and precinct committeeman
throughout the United States. While
our committee solicited no money for
corrupt purposes, it had ample means
for the legitimate purpose of the cam
paign.
But with 'all this--an apparently
compact organization. a candidate
whose personal character was ire
oachable--ample means for all legit-
innate purposes, all the literature that
could be used and with the country
abaze with unsurpassed oratory we
encountered a political reverse, almost
unparalleled. a disaster caused by
hundreds of thousands of Democrats
failing to vote and by many others
voting the opposition ticket
The Cause of Defeat.
Mr.. Taggart reviewed briefly the last
four presidential campaigns.
OF the 1904 campaign he said
"The results prove that very large
proportion of the Democratic voters
were not satisfied with the work of
the National Convention, and on cleo
ton day they made their protest.
Still T don't believe that any other
candidate on any platform could have
been elected. There was no objection
to Mr.. Parker's personality, but those
who won the battle of 1896 felt that
they had been called upon to retreat
rather than to advance and declining
TO retreat. rcVoltad.
Bryan Talks of Roosevelt.
Mr.. Bryan said among other things:
president Roosevelt is just now en-
tering upon a contest for the reguIa
ton of railroad rates ana the Demu-
Gratis ought heartily to support him in
the position he is taking. If with
Democratic assistance he succeeds IN
securing more strict regulation of the
railroads engaged in Interstate COM
merce, tbs public will receive the
benefit and the Democratic party VIII
share liz the credit. If, even with
Democratic assistance, he fails, the
Democratic party will profit by the
educational work which he is doing
and the railroad question will be made
still more acute. While ! am anxious
that the virtue of government super
vision and regulation shall be fully
tried. find myself nclining to the
belief that public ownership is the
only permanent cure. [ believe than
the Federal ownership of trunk lines
and the State ownership of the net
work of local railroa Is will furnish Il
solution of the prODI.m."
