TO WELCOME BRYAN
Movement to Send Committee to New
York-All Want to Go.

WASHINGTON, June 10.-The Dem
ocrats of the House have come under
the spell of the Bryan boom which
seems to be sweeping the country A
movement was started among them
to select a committee of Democratic
Congressman to go to New York and
Join with the other party leaders in
welcoming the Nebraska traveller upon
his return to this country.
The men engineering this project
are Champ Clark, of Missouri; Ollie
James, of Kentucky, and Billy" Sui
ger, of New York. These three are
devout worshippers of Bryan They
found that practically every Democrat
in the House is willing to serve upon
the Reception Committee. Even such
rock-ribbed, conservative gold-bugs as
George Washington Taylor, of Alaba-
ma, are now for Bryan, although they
we're against him in 1906 and again in
1900.
James X Jones, formerly chairman
of the Democratic National Campaign
committee, was asked if he thought
Bryan would get the votes of the men
who supported Palmer and Buckner
in 1896.
st think that nine-tenths,if not ten
tenths, of the Palmer and Buckner
vote will be for Bryan next time" he
replied.

President Jamos E Caldwell was

and asked regarding the above special
f ON Me DphIs.
1T Is moro expensive to conduct a
telephone BUSINESS under competition
than without it, SAID he, and we
founo it practical and reasonable to
collect additional rates in Memphis.
In other words under the circumstances
the Cum herland hiss not found it
necessary to cut rates, but has rather
found it necessary to advance them.
The public of Memphis has signified
Its willingness to have things that
way, ana they have hau to pay for it.
1t would seem that telephone competi-

claimed for IT. -

The campaign being made by the
Democratic party has ceased to give
their opponents serious concern, but
is coming rather to appeal to their
sense of humor and to challenge
their sympathy. Under assurance
that his presence in Kansas was all
that Was needed to ''set the prairies
afire," Col. Harris-who of course
was not familiar with conditions
here since he had moved away from
the state five or six years ago-left
his business in Chicago and came
west to start the confiagration. A
great Opening Meeting was planned,
to take place at FIT. Scott. Special
excursions were to be run from all
over the state. This meeting was to
be an Eye-Opener. And it was!-to
Col. Harris. The meeting was not
simply frost 1t was an Arctic
freeze. And the Democrats are still
waiting for that prairie fire to warm
their cold feet. And then they be-
gan hunting for an tissue" They
tried the "Katy" misrepresentation.
1t was dead failure. People wouldn't
enthuse over the proposition that
PtruStee is under no obligation to fU1-
| fill his trust, that railroad is not en-
titled to Gay in court or that the
| judges of the q. S. Supreme court are
a set of rascals. Then a woman who
advertises that she secured employ
ment by playing traitor to the con-
Germs who had employed her, jumped
onto the State Text Book Commits
sion. The Democratic, Kansas City,
Missouri, organ that is seeking to run
Kansas politics went off half cooked
/ and began to charge that the School
Book Commissions are s'plundering
the poor little boys and girls of the
state" Another gold brick. It was
discovered that one member of the
Commission is a Democratic candi-
date for state superintendent. And
besides, that this Commission has
not had a meeting and has not per-
formed an official act. The school
book tissue has become a joke. And
with worried look they are scratching
around for another tissue" But
don't laugh at them. Have you no
sympathy at all?-Marion Record.
