PASSED THROUGH BLUEFIELD
LAST NIGHT.

Hon. w. j. Bryan passed through
this city and was met at the train
by a large crowd of our citizens.
He is looking well and In the best
Of spirits. He made short talk
here but there was SO much confusion
and shifting about OF the train that
no accurate report could be obtained.
He speaks at RadfoTd tomorrow
where a large number OF our citizens
will go TO hear him. While making
his short talk at the depot here the
trains were making considerable
noise shifting. which interrupted the
speaker, and with broad smile he
turned to- the crowd and said: This
shows that the railroads are against
us"
His wife and daughter accompany
him.
Mr.. Bryan made two speeches,
both Of which were short. His
theme was the railroad question. and
his remarks tended TO show extreme
conservatism with regard to the
question at issue. He said in part
that the republican party had stolen
our platform. now that Is rather
harsh statement, ID modify that:
I'll say that they have appropriated
our platform. do not know much
about the politics OF this state. but
the question at issue in the country
at large Is the corporation control
which is becoming universal have
no objection to corporation crea-
ted for the people and by the peo-
pie. but ! do object to the corpor-
ations which are created for the
people and then seek 70 control
them through their lobbyists"
Mr.. Bryan when asked TO make a
statement on the railroad question
for the Daily Leader said:
Il do not like to make any state
ment on the railroad question. /
would much rather that you should
take some extracts from some of my

speeches on the question. think
that ultimately the railroads will
come under public control. I have
not yet been able to master the state
question as regards the railroads,
and until that time We cannot place
them under control. have devoted
some time to the question but have
not arrived at a satisfactory con-
clusion."
Mr.. Bryan's appearance was not
one to intimidate. but rather one
which would tend to give confidence.
He did not travel In splendor. but
rather the same as the ordinary man
or woman would travel He first
spoke to the people upon the rear
platform of the train and after shak-
ing hands with a number who were
there ne said TO Mr. Langdon. of
POcahontas: Let Us go up through
the train and see some OF the people
who have not had chance to see
us at this end" A large number of
ladies were at the train and Mr..
Bryan appeared only too glad to meet
them. Repeated cries for a speech
forced Mr.. Bryan to ask the people.
How many speeches do you expect
me TO make in a day?" His remark
created laugh and round Of ap-
piause was rendered. Then Mr.
Bryan spoke with rather a husky
voice, but nevertheless. II lacks none
OF It's old time splendor.
