Bryan'S Nep Issue

The political world today knows only
one issue, one topic, one concern The
tariff is a backnumber. the Congress
sional campaign is forgotten, the in
cursion OF organized labor into roll
tics is insignificant. the Maine election
has lost all interest, the Cannon boom
is charged with wet powder, and the
Fairbanks movement has got so warm
il melted down. Public ownership OF
railroads Is the only thing worth think
ing about.
Mr.. Bryan has not pleased the PEG
pie who are looked upon as the leader
ship of his own party. He has not pleas
ed the South. and he has sadly displeas-
ed the statesmen Of that section.
Leaders Displeased.

h His family consists of a wife and
grown daughter.
Judge Benson's daughter is Mrs. H.
Ward Page Of Topeka. Mr.. Page is one
OF the well known young Republicans Of
this city. He said this morning:
am of course much pleased with
the appointment. and believe that
Judge Benson viii be a great senator.
1t also seems to me that his popularity
with nearly everyone who knows him
VIII give him very good chance to be
elected when the legislature meets this
winter
Sketch of Judge Benson.
Judge Benson. or Major Benson. as
the people of Ottawa delight to call
him. IS the kind of attorney to whom
women and children and men who were
lacking in business or legal training
delighted to go. He is a whole-souled,
pure-hearted man, who takes pride in
his honor. He gives advice freely. the
kind of advice that is usually charged
Tor, and it is said that he has handled
more estates than any one man in
franklin county Widows and their
children would go to him and ask him
to take charge of the estates, for they
knew that he was without guile. Wo-
men IN trouble would go to him for adj
vice and it has often been told by men
VINO knew him we'll that Judge Benson
has saved many a family through his
counsel. When he was on the bench
people were eager to have him try their
cases, for they knew that he would
fairly adjudicate the cases and there has
never been a complaint over his decis-
ions. Sometimes, maybe, he would
stretch the law a little to decide which
one was in the right, but no one ever
questioned the justice of his decisions.
Judge Benson is man of small sta
ture. He is not a man that one would
pick out in a crowd as of senatorial cali
Der A man who knows him well, in
talking of the future senator, said
If Benson were to walk through here
with a crowd of q thousand men you
would not pick him out. When he goes
down to Washington some of those big
fellows are going to take him for a
doorkeeper or a clerk or something,
but the first words he utters will disa-
buse them of the idea"
Judge Benson will take to Washing
ton strong support of the policy of
railroad rate regulation.
I am in hearty sympathy with the
general principles of the bill now pend
ing, said Judge Benson. With some
of the recent amendments I am not en-
tirely familiar, but the presidents de-
late rates and eliminate extOrtion and
faVoritism in commerce has had my
warmest approval from the first / am
in favor of the admission of Oklahoma
and Indian Territory to joint statehood
and hope to see this accomplished with
out delay. The Foraker amendment
providing for vote in Arizona and
New Mexico upon the proposition of
statehood for those territories seems to
me entirely reasonable.
L am, of course. not as well informed
as shall hope to be upon pending legis-
lation. I realize that my work as a SEN
ator is likely to be crude for time''
Judge Benson probably will start for
Washington not later than Tuesday af-
ternoon.
