Of railways and express companies.
In fact there was a distinct trend of
socialism throughout the speechmak-
ing.
1t will be observed, therefore, that
there is still decided and perhaps
irreconciliable difference of opinion
between the radicals and the con.
servatives of the democrstic party.
Last year the conservatives had their
way. Hence it is quite likely that
in 1908 the Bryan-Johnson Dunno
wing of the party will be once more
in the saddle and will present to the
people a platform demanding public
ownership of railways, telegraphs,
telephones and all other utilities.
In that event party lines are likely
to shift Some radical republicans
are likely to join the democrats and
the conservative democrats are very
likely to become republicans. But
Of the distinct cleavage in the demo-
cratic party there can be no question
and it is likely to grow greater in.
stead OF smaller as time progresses.

It is barely possible that the cat
tie owners have decided to exercise
a little discretion in order that they
may get a fair profit on their pro-
duct But if the rise In price is now
due to them, it will be one Of the
rare occasions when the cattleman
has come into his own, for in nine
times out Of ten the increased price
of meat goes into the pockets of the
trust and not to the cattleman where
it properly belongs.-Ex.

Divided Democracy.

wide divergence Of opinion which OK =

Taking the addresses of Judge
Parker and of William J. Bryan, 8
difference upon what constitutes tho
real issue is speedily developed.
The New York jurist declares that
the party has been swept away in
past years by the false gods of green
hackery and free silver and that it
should set itself against popular de-
mands, no matter how great the
clamor, and endorse true democratic
principles.
On the other hand Mr.. Bryrn and
his followers in Chicago came out
strongly in behalf of the latest fad,
municipal ownership and declare that
it should be placed in the national
platform of the party. Other speak

While 1t should be the policy OF
the service to co operate with and
assist all legitimate private irrigs
tion development, it would not allow
Q false sense of fairness to deprive
any community of the opportunity
to effect its development along the
broadest possible lines, and it would
be anything but fair to such com
munity to decide that an attempt to
irrigate its lands had created q mort.
gage upon them, and that they must
be left to be exploited for private
profit, regardless of the wishes Of
those most vitality interested. It is
the rule that wherever the reclsma-
tion service has started its investigs.
tions, it has found some part of its
project overlapping lands which are
being exploited by private enter
prise. In such cases if there is
reasonable probability that the en-
terprise will be carried out, its lands
should not be included, unless their
exclusion would cripple the project,
and in this case some equitable ar
rangement should be made with the
interests involved.-Irrigstion.

Public and Private Enterprise.

Public and Private Enterprise.
The relation between public and
private enterprise has been the sub
ject of some controversy since the
passage of the reclamation act. It
was assumed by many that the re-
clamstion engineers would confine
their operations to developments
which offered DO attractions to pri-
vate enterprise, such as the con
struction Of storage reservoirs on
over-sppropriated streams, or the
building Of canals to divert the water
from unused streams into rivers
where scarcity existed. In other
words, that the reclamation service
should be confined to operations
which would tend to the general
amelioration Of conditions existing
in the arid regions, without coming
into commercial relations with the
laid or people benefited by its action.
While this would be vastly more
satisfactory to those charged with
the execution of the reclamation act,
it would not carry out the provis
ions of the law thnt the amounts ex-
pended should be repaid by the
lands benefited. This provision of
the reclamation act makes it the first
duty Of its executives to select for its
operations feasible projects, in which
the owners Of the land can afford to
repay to the reclamation fund the
actual amounts expended in their re-
clamation.
The fact that the funds used under
the reclamation act are relieved from
interest charges makes many pro.
jects feasible which could not be
proftably carried out by private en-
terprise, but this is more than offset
by the perennial hopefulness of the
private promoter. Every possibility
of irrigation development in the arid
region has been exploited at some
time by somebody, and il it should
be held that the reclamation service
should not interfere with private On
terprise, it must either cease its op-
erations or confine them to projects
so utterly chimerical that there
would be no human possibility of
the return Of tho money expended.

Premature Rejoicing,

Those three democratic statesmen,
Colonel Bryan, Judge Dunno and
Mayor johnson, clearly believe that
they are on the high road to success
since the recent Chicago election.
On that occosion there was q de-
cided vote in favor of municipal
ownership of railways and thus these
eminent advocates of reform" be.
lieve they have made marked pro.
gress.
OF course, there are few things
to be considered before the people
begin to owR the Chicago railways.
One Of these is matter of $4,000,
600 or so which must be raised with
which to buy the roads. When the
people have done this they will Ger.
tainly expect to ride free. But, alas,
the municipal program contemplates
that they will still pay their nickels
and at the same time pay taxes on
the millions put into the investment.
Therefore, it is perhaps just as
we'll that the municipal advocates re-
joice aud felicitste each other now.
For they may not have an opportun.
ity after their system is in working
operation.-Coloiado Springs Tele

DR.. r. d. Wilson returned from
Denver Saturday morning. He re
covered rapidly from the effects of
an operation for appendicitis which
took place five weeks ago, and while
he is not 80 strong as before, he is
regaining his strength and has par

kept busy at his office the first day
after his return, receiving the con-
gratulations of his many friends
upon his recovery and safe return.
Tho First National Bank of Holly
was chartered last week, with q cap

succeeds the old Bank of Holly, and
the officers of the new institution
are w. q. Gould, president; B. B.

try, cashier; j. b Harden, assistant
cashier. The Bank of Holly, under
the direct management of Messrs.
McMurtIy and Harden has been do
ing a very successful business since
June 1899, and the fact that these
gentlemen are retained in the new
organization assures its success. as
they have the utmost confidence of
the people with whom they transact
business every day.
The town trustees have purchased
two thousand fine young cottonwood

the part OF the trustees is taken sd

one of the best things that could be
done for our town. As the herd law
is now strictly enforced within the
town limits there will be but little
danger Of depredations by stock and
if the trees are properly set out, ir-
rigated and given ordinary attention
they will grow and soon become an
ornament to the town.

and their sheep at far better prices than during MT. Cleveland's last ad- ministration, when the duty was plac- ed so low on both sheep and wool that this industry was ruined"
 The Secretary gave some figures bearing on the wool schedule and con- rtinued:
 All the Republican party claims is
 that 1t constructs its tariff law on principle What would you think of a
 wool manufacturer who would claim
 to be free trader as applied to wool and a protectionist as applied to wool en manufactures? I made an informal
 talk the other day before the board of trade of Jacksonville. Fla. Of course made no reference to tariff of any other political subject. Following me, an ex-governor of the State was called upon and before he closed he expressed the opinion that great and wonderful properity would come to this country if we could once get rid of the in iquitous tariff" as he called it. When he sat down I arose and said that
 while I did not wish to discuss politi- cal questions at a non-partisan meet | ing, nevertheless If the board af trade | of Jacksonville would ask 1t and Che people of California would join in the request, I would dc my best to get 'iniquitous tariff removed from the citrus fruits. Democrats as we'll as Republicans cheered to the echo. They then called upon a man said to be the | leading lawyer of the State, a Demo- crat, who declared that practically all
 men present were protectionists. To this there was no voice of dissent
 He said that they were protectionists and Southern bred men, but that they
 all voted the Democratic ticket. He then told his assistants that if they demanded protection in their citrus fruits they must grant protection to other industries.
 All that the Republican party claims for the Dingley tariff law is that il
 is built on the right principles and I protects all interests and all com munities. Rates will be amended ir due time, but the present will never
 be amended under a Republican ad- ministration.

SPEECH OF MR. SHAW
ADDRESS REPUBLICAN, AUDIENCE
 AT RICHMOND, VA.
Secretary of the Treasury Discusses Tnrfff Question and the Posi-. =
 ton Taken by His Party.

Richmond, Va, Oct 2-Leslie M. Shaw, secretary of the treasury, to- night addressed a large Republican gathering at the Academy of Music. ],
 Judge L. L. Lewis, Republican noms 1nee for governor, presided at the meting. Mir Shaw was preceded by sCongressman Yost, who made strong appeal for purity of elections and for the choice as goveror of Judge Lewis.
 Secretary Shaw said in part:
 You must bear in mind that there was never a tariff law enacted that was perfect, or that any one claimed was perfect. No two congresses would even enact the same bill. Every tariff law is an aggregation of compromises. All the Republican party ever claims for any tariff law is that the principle is perfect. The rate will be too high here and too low there. but protection will be found in it's every feature. The opposition party never claim mat their tariff measures are perfect. They on- ly claim that the principle of free trade, on which they profess to con struct their tariff laws. is the correct principle. They claim to eliminate every element of protection from all their tariff laws. as England elimi- mated protection from her tariff laws. England provides tariff for the sole purpose of revenue and the Democratic party professes to do the same. They have openly and repeatedly denounced protection as robbery-they strike at the principle.
 sWhile the Republican party never claimed for any tariff law that 1t was perfect and never promises to enact a perfect tariff law, 1t does claim that all Its tariff laws are builded upon the principle of protection. It has never sacrificed one industry for the sake of building anotner, and never will. Neither will 1t project zone To- cality in the interest of another. It will be natural and not provincial. It will protect the South as well as the North; the East as well as the West, and the West as well as the East"
 Secretary Shaw declares that the Re- publican tariff laws are so construct ed as to protect every man and every industry. Further on he said:
 ''The wool schedule of the Dingiey law may not be perfect. It may be too high or it may be too low, or the diff ferentials may have been incorrectly worked out. It is constructed on the protection principle. however. and un- der 1t Virginia farmers sell their wool

A GREAT REVIVAL.
Over Two Hundred Join Various
 Churches i'm Decaturs.

Churches in Decuturs.
 Decatur, Oct. 2.-(Special.)- )-As a re- suit of three weeks revival meeting. held by Rev. John B. Culpepper and son, the evange1ists of Mississippi. over 200 people joined the various churches, of the Decaturs yesterday and last night Over 150 joined the Central Methodist Church. South, in New De- catur alone. MT. Culpepper was as- sisted in the meeting by the various pastors of the Decaturs throughout the meeting. This was one of the greatest religious awakenings ever known Tn the Twin Cities.
 Now that the Culpepper meeting has closed a revival meeting has been started at the First Methodist Church. The pastor is being assisted In this meeting by the blind evangelist, Rev. MT. Ramsey, late of the Tennessee Methodist Conference. This meeting will, perhaps, continue for the next three weeks. For sometime past the Decaturs have had the reputation of being reliyiously cold, but now they are awakening to the cause of relig- ion.
 During the Culpepper meeting in New Decatur, one man got religion and carried to the Louisville and Nash vile Railroad shops in New Decatur, where he worked. a large sack full of tools which, he said, he had stolen from the shopmen. He returned the tools to their owners.
