ernment. Public ownership Of the
railroads involves revolution. 1t

~ AAAASAASs Il uOAiS ONASA VI SllC
railroads involves revolution. 1t
means not Democracy, but centraliza-
ton and an office-holding oligarchy.
In mis- speech at New Haven Mr.
Bryan explained that the argument
which brought me to my decision for
government ownership Of railroads
was that corporation interests We're
the most corrupt influence in Ameri-
can politics today" Let us concede
sary to concede that the national gov
ernment has not sufficient power
through regulation to remedy the evil.
How can Mr.. Bryan imagine that the
bad influences of the railroads would
be prevented by turning them over to
the government? Does Mr.. Bryan
think that it would be easier to defeat
the Republican Party at the present
time if President Roosevelt had charge
of the appointment and control of a
million railroad employees? Or. sup
pose on the other hand that MIR. Bry-
an was president and had the power
to appoint "a secretary or manager of
the rail1 Dads of the country, does he
really think that he would find among
those who are clamoring for govern
ment ownership a man or commits
sion who could operate the railroads
of this country cheaper and better
than the men who are now directing
them? Does he think if he We're presi-
dent that he could keep tho railroads
out of politics and politics out of the
railroads? Would not the railroads be
more in politics than they are now?
Mr.. Bryan ought not to insist upon
opening up this issue which is IL rem
edy for no evil and upon which he
never could be elected and never ought
to be nominated. We do not believe
that the Democratic Party of the ma
tion will ever subscribe 10 the doc
trine of federal ownership of railways.
If it ever does then we shall know that
it has departed from the philosophy
taught by jefferson and Jackson and
that it is no longer the rarity of the
Constitution, but supporter of social
ism and paternalism.

Ex-Mayor William H. Eustis is a
formidable candidate for the Repub-
lican nomination in the fifth district
for congress, to succeed Loren Fletch-
er. Mr.. Eustis made an excellent may
or and there is no doubt that he would
ably and creditably represent this, the
greatest congressional district in the
United States, in the house of repre-
sentatives. He is broad-minded pub
lic-spirited citizen and while chief ex-
ecutive Of this city made many friends
among readers of this paper. For many
years he has been one of our most
progressive and respected business
men. AS a public official he endeav-
ored to treat all classes fairly and was
we'll liked by the labor element of our
population. The street car strike in
1898 was settled through his influence
in less than twelve hours, the COM
pany conceding to the claims of the
men. In 1895 he settled the bricklay-
ers' strike on the university building.
The men We're working for thirty-five
cents an hour, and they demanded
forty. the contractor having taken the
job at a figure which would not en-
able him to pay over thirty-five cents,
and the regents being unable to in
crease the contract price, the men in
sisting on forty cents an hour. Mr..
Eustis came TO the rescue and paid the
difference between thirty five and
forty cents to the men.

PROGRESS I'M IRELAND.

PROGRESS IN IRELAND.
Timothy NJ. Healy, Member of Par
lament for Louth: is now in this
country. He reports that the land
purchase law in Ireland Is working
we'll, thus affording little comfort to
those who have been criricising the
Irish Parliamentary Party. Mr.. Healy
is not a strict follower of Mr.. Red
mond. He is not considered menu
ber of the Nationalist organization.
He is as often found in opposition
to Redmond as in support. His testi-
mOny is therefore. entitled to all the
greater weight when he says that the
land purchase act is working we'll.
He also expresses strong hope that the
present British ministry will grant a
large measure of relief to Ireland. We
are told that modified scheme Of
Home Rule is contemplated. that there
will be an Irish body to look after local
affairs while Ireland will still: continue
to be represented in the imperial Par
Lament. This is not all that the Irish
people desire, but it must be remem-
ministry is laboring under great diff
culties. 1t has great majority, but
that majority is made up of hetero-
geneous group of parties that have lit
tie or nothing in common. The Irish
Nationalists are considered supporters
of the government, but they are sup
porters only as long as the government
travels in the direction of irish reform.
The Labor members are classed as
Liberals, but they are chiefly interest
ed in securing for Labor some of it's
demands. The Liberal Unionists are
now classed as Liberals although
on the Irish Home Rule question they
would Immediately become Tories.
There is no doubt but thar Campbell
Bannerman and some of his ministers
are sincere friends of Home Rule and
would grant the full measure of Home
Rule proposed by Gladstone were it in
man would be unable to maintain his
party intact upon such q measure 1t
seems therefore. the wiser course for
the Irish Nationalists to insist upon
as large Il measure of Irish reform as
can reasonably be expected to secure
the support of sufficient number OF
Liberals to insure it's success rather
than to insist upon measure which
they must know would meet With de
the present ministry and another APP
peal to the country. The Home Rule
question defeated the Liberals in the
time of Gladstone and it has taken
twenty years for them to get back into
power. Naturally the Liberals hesi-
tate to invite the same experience. 1t
it not wise for the Irish to insist upon
certain defeat for the best friends they
have. 1t is better to take what they
compelled to submit to another re-
gime of Ba!four. Perhaps il those Irish
on this side of the water who insist
upon the whole thing or nothing. We're
compelled to live in Ireland under
present day conditions, that they would
be more willing to accept what they
could get. We think that the Irish
Nationalist Party under the leadership
of Mr.. Redmond has shown rare tact
and has exhibited /; submission to dis
cipline that is admirable. Even MIR.
Healy, who has been a recalcitrate, ad-
mits that the present policy of the
Irish Nationalist. is working well for

FLEET FArllLY REUNION.
Two Per sons Attend Whose Conn
bined Age is IA Years.

The Fleet family held a reunion
at Riverview Park, Wednesday
afternoon and evening. About
twenty representative of the
family were there. The reunion
was in honor of David Fleet of
Montgomery City, Montgomery
county, Miss ouri, who is visiting g
relatives here, en- route to his old
home from New York. An inter-
esting fact brought out was that
he and Mrs. Eliza Fleet were born
in 1919, making their toto' ge- ia
years. To see them anc talk with
them one would not believe it..
They are just as yonng in spirit
as they ever were. The years
have left no marks on their genial
good nature, if they did whiten
their hair and cnfeeble their steps.
No one enjoyed the afternoon
more than these two aged persons,
who were born in the same year
that Queen Victoria was born.
Mr.. Fleet lived here in the fifties,
moving to Missouri just before the
war of the rebellion, where he has
en- joyed much prosperity.
There were four generations rep
resented at the reunion, from Mrs.
Eliza Fleet and "Uncle" Dave
Fleet to little Miss Margaret Bar
ker, daughter of VIM. Barker, who
is the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Grafton
Barker and Mrs. Eliza Fleet is Mrs.
Bakers mother. 1t was indeed a
pleasant and profitable party and
was planned by Mrs. A. Belts, al
so a daughter of Mrs. Fleet.-Tif-

The farmers interested in that
road running east from the county
line bridge whooped things up
last week, and completed one
fourth mile of gravel road, rum
ming from the Gazette road con-
ner just east of the bridge along
the county line east. They ex-
hausted all their subscription
money on this work, and will wait
until more money can be raised
before resuming operations. AS
an example of the cheapness with
which gravel roads can be made
in this community, it is noted that
this quarter mile piece OF road
cost about $50 in money and some
volunteer work. OF course, this
is, practically, right at the creek,
where the graveling would cost
less than at a farther distance;
but, even at one mile haul, the cost
is very reasonable-considerably
more so than person would
imagine. Woek up and talk up
gravel roads.-Chips.
Public spirit and little money
will go long way towards good
roads when properly applied.
