In regard to the so-called trusts In a
letter to Mr.. Bryan. George Smart, the
editor OF that paper. said:
IN your recent address at Madison

IONS OF sale Later in your address YOU
SAID; II is far easier to prevent a mo-
ncpoly than to watch il and then punish
IL. and this prevention can he accom-
ptSned IN practical way by refusing a
Incense TO any corporation which controls

product-this proportion to be arbitrarily
liked at point which will give free op-

aid Estate Development" means
that the railway companies are COM
mon carriers and that they as such
are subject to state control and that
they have no right to discriminate
in matters Of transportation either
Of freight or passengers. That they
have no right to charge farmer or
business man three cents mile in
order that the railroad company
may carry public officials and others
who are, or who the company thinks
are, in a position to render the COM
pany favors, on passes. They have
no right to grant rebates or special
favors to one shipper not granted to
another. That for the same amount
of the same class of freight carried
over the same distance they must
not be permitted to charge one
party more than another. That as
they charge party demurage if he
fails to remove his freight in a spec
flied time it is equally just that they
pay demurage if they fail to furn-
ish cars ordered in reasonable
time That transportation compa-
MES are justly entitled to charge
such transportation rates as will
WELD them reasonable interest on
the value of their roads, cost OF
equipment, wear and tear on same,
sufficient to pay reasonable dam
ages for accidents where the courts
hold them liable, to pay good wages
to employees and fair profit on

-" Adrian Democrat: S. 3. Bedford
is making an active campaign FOR
the republican sena torial nomina-

he shouldn't win... Senator ehell
has held the office for seven or 'leVen
terms without performing any Con-
spicious service for his constituents.
His enemies oven go So far as to say
thai he has done nothing for the
district. This may be putting it a
little too strong, but the fact re-
mains that he has done no more
than scores of other men could have
done in the same position, and there
is not the slightest reason why he
should be continued in office until
he dies of old age. Under the cir
cumstances, why wouldn't it be a
good idea to give some other man
a chance to show what he can do9
And when it comes to ''some other
man" Bedford fills the bill as well
as any republican can fill it.

Two Surprises.

A Merry Christmas and Hap
py New Year was spent at the
home of Grandpa and Grandma
Barnes near Lake, Neb.
Christmas 10 guests we're invit-
ed to partake of grand dinner
prepared by Grandma, consisting
of chicken pie and numerous other
other dainties which everyone en-
joys on that day. The grand
children enjoyed themselves with
bountiful supply of candy and
nuts. After these were disposed
of, a program of Z recitations and
several songs were rendered by
the grand children.
Grandpa and Grandma seemed
to enjoy entertaining the guests,
so it was decided to have New
Year surprise dance at their home,
to which everybody was invited
and everyone came. Grandpa
and Grandma were as surprised as
little boy would have been to see
Santa Claus come down the Chin
ney with his pack.
This was their 69th Christmas
and New Year and the time spent
on both occasions will never be
forgotten by those present.

Either they (the great corpora

enable submission by the national
authorities or else they will ulti-
mately have to submit to govern
mental action of a far more drastic
type
Thus said President Roosevelt
in his Chautauqua address.
1t is a fair warning.
And timely.
Judged by their actions the men
whu control the great monopolies
of the country are proceeding on
the theory of the French Bourbons
After us the deluge.''
They are reckless in their out
lawry.
They not only oppose the pas
sage of laws legal and just, but
they grossly violate the laws we
have.
And they are laying up wrath
agaist the day of wrath.
Popular feeling is resentful and
impatient. They have made it so.
Therefore the president warns
them of the drastic legislation
