Geo. T. Williamson, of the firm of

Williamson was honored by being

talks Interestingly of the gathering

Williamson says he is more than ever
a Bryan man now, and that he con-

Mr.. Williamson had never heard
Bryan speak before, although he had

be easily heard over the big hall.

twelve thousand people were in the

this most remarkable.
Mr.. Williamson says that Bryan
arrived in the morning and that the

keep the throng back from him on
his way to the jefferson hotel. He
said that he saw old men throw up
their hats and run after Bryan like
school children. All day at the hotel
it was constant reception to a

The owners Of the building, Messrs,

it will be rebuilt, as soon as stronger

She opinionates to the court that
the only way she can make her life
secure is to break away from Whis-
man for good, and asks that the
marriage be annulled.
If Mrs. Whisman's allegations
prove true, it appears that Whisman
has stepped over the line of privi-
lege in married life. He should have
confined himself to kicking out
window light now and then or vent
ing his spleen on an unoffending door.
1t is not conducive to the general
welfare of welded couple to act up
in the manner in which his wife al
leges that he did. Gun plays and
Hastings Of bowie knives might "ve
been allowable in the earlier his ry
of the country, but with civiliza ion
the boundaries of married license are
necessarily narrowed.

The Rate BILL

After one of the most strenuous con-
tests the congress of the United States
has known, the administration measure
for the regulation of interstate trans
portation went to the president for
signature containing most of the pro-
visions for which he contended.
The enactment of the law is con-
cession 10 the demands of the national
platforms of both the great political
Darties. though it is in reality more of Il
democratic than a republican measure.
Much more so that it is not the make
shift which the Aldrich combine in the
senate would have had it. is due to the
able support and ill-requited loyalty
given the president throughout the
long struggle by democratic senators.
The new act strengthens the original
interstate commerce law and makes
more efficient the control of the inter
state commerce commission over inter-
state traffic The power OF the commits
sion is not so great as it would have
been if the court review provisions adj
yocated by democratic senators. under
the leadership of Senator Bailey, had
been incorporated, but the restrictions
upon summary court injunctions are
accepted by democrats like Senator
Tillman as making the measure fairly
effective.
That the measure is more democratic
than republican is readily seen by ref
erence to the national platforms adop-
ted by the two parties in 1904. The
republicans in their platform did little
more than point with pride to the
rather meager achievement of their
party in providing additional remedies
for the prevention of discrimination in
freight rates.
The democratic platform on which
the conservative Parker made his race
for the presidency contains the direct
demand for such enlargement of the
powers of the interstate commerce
commission as would protect the inter
state shipper and the interstate trav-
eler from unjust discrimination OF any
sort The presidents prosecutions OF
rebaters and unlawful combinations en-
gagged in interstate traffic have also
accorded much more nearly with the
demands of the democrats than with
those of the republican platform of

from him some time ago. He and
Senator Plat were violently antagon-

needs the others help. The result is
likely to be combination which will
dictate the next nomination for COVER
nor. Odell has been hard al work for

would not be surprised 10 see him land
