THE NEW NATIONAL ISSUE.
fora Williams in the Chicago Dali.

i
| fora Williams in the Chicago Daily
| Review.1
A great many issues are injected
into national politics from time tc
time, with little reason. But few OF
the so-called national issues are really
national.
Forty and fifty years ago some rea
national issues were at the front In
politics. Nobody will dispute this
statement. The tariff question has
been a national issue, more or less
acute, for many years. Some phases
of foreign policy have been at issue in
national way.
Real national issues are not made;
they may be recognized when they ex-
list, but no man nor party makes an
issue.
Within the past few weeks recogni-
ton has been given to- the existence
of real national issue involving the
policy of the general government to-
ward the rate making power of the
railroads. The clearest and most COM
prehensive statement of this issue has
been that of Governor Cummins of
Iowa. before the senate committee of
inquiry, published elsewhere in full in
this issue of the Daily Review. There
has been a good deal of lodging
around the question and much by
play, but here is statement which
will repay careful reading whether thu
reader has preconceived notions as to
the matter or is open to conviction
and is seeking light.
The issue is one involving not few
rates or a few incidentals of trade and
commerce, but change which, in view
of those who advocate progress, Is SIM
pie recognition of the fact that condi-
lions are not what they were. Com
petition in rate making having been
eliminated, the sole question now Is
where the arbitrary power to make
rates shall be lodged.
This is an issue about which railway
managers differ, which divides the
statesmen, which has support and OPP
position in all parties. Men may hon
estly differ as to what is best to- be
done. Some men are forever looking
back and bemoaning the good old days:
others are peering into the future with
hopefulness. One may not be accused
of demagogism because he entertains
radical views.
But the time is ripe for honest and
frank discussion of all phases Of this
truly national issue. It has been fore.
ed upon the people by the rapid stride
Of events and it should be met with
courage and honesty.

Amusing Experiences.

The platform entertainer, the man
who travels this broad pand over
carrying joy and happiness TO the
thousands who hear him, meets with
; many amusing experiences.
Last night just before Governor
Taylor began his lecture a small dog
belonging to some camper took po-
sition on the stage where he could
view the audience with the utmost
complacency Rev. ]. c. Smith at
tempted to eject the canine, but he
refused to be elected and sought
safety under a bench. While the
speaker was making his Introductory
remarks the dog came from his hid
ing place and trotted near the big
governor in a most friendly and famil
lar manner. The crowd laughed and
the governor waxed furious. With
one mighty kick from his No. 10 he
dealt his dogship blow in the short
ribs. The dog gave one howl of pain
and shot through the door like
skyrocket. OF course the crowd
yelled
Governor Taylor was discussing
the incident this morning with a
number of frieds This called to the
governors mind many amusing ex-
periences he had met with on the
road. In recounting some of them
he said:

an unusually large dog came into the
hall and sat down in the aisle just
in front of the stage. He seemed to
enjoy the situation as much as any
one, and every time | would reach a

would howl. This was kept up until
my lecture was concluded.

ATTRACTS BIG CROWD
Geveraor Tsylor's Lecture Hesrd BY .
RecoSd Breaking Audience.

Governor Bob Taylor, the genial,
joTial Bob Taylor. the man whose
brilliant wit and effervescent humor
| is guaranteed cure for the blues,
| lectured at the Chautauqua last night
and was heard by record break
ling audience. IL has been estimated
that the crowd which heard the big
governor from Tennessee last night
was larger than the attendance at
Watterson' lecture three years ago.
All the available space in the audi
torium was utilized TO accommodate
the people. 1t was crowded almost
| to suffocation, and hundreds of fans
beat a rhythm 10 the rhapsodioai
| flights of the speaker. The people
| were rammed and jammed in the
pews, the aisles we're filled with
chairs and hundreds stood In the
doors and sat In windows through
out the entire lecture without show
| ing any signs of weariness. Several
long seats were brought from the old
pavilion TO the stage OF the auui-
| torium and these we're filled with
men. women and children.
| As governor Taylor made his way
TO the stage the orchestra struck up
| Dixie and the applause that greeted
the speaker and this popular air al
most raised the roof After making
his usual announcements President
Mcconnell presented the speaker to
the audience and again the applause
was deafening Building Castles in
the Air was the subject of Governor
! Tayior's lecture, and for more than
one hour he carried his audience with
him through flights of fancy. The
1 governor voice il not as strong as
II used to be, but he was heard dis
tinctly by nearly all in the vast audi
lence. Hc Eas few superiois rs plat

day morning as he was coming away
from the bridge. He had a sack of
chickens, which had been beheaded,
but were warm yet. He said that he
secured the chickens in Rock Island.
but would not tell where officer San
ford brought him over TO Rock Island
this morning. 1t was learned afterward
that chickens belonging TO MIS-. John
Albrecht, near Twelfth street and
Third avenue. were missing and it is
believed that these were the ones.
