His Views on Russia,
The Meat Scandal.


AS to beef trust legislation General
Miles said rather guardedly: 81 went
on record as to what I. thought Of the
beef combine eight years ago. If the
proper measures had been taken at that
time, many lives would have been
saved, much injustice averted and a
powerful monopoly would have been
held in check. OF all the capitalistic
combines, this is the meanest and the
most injurious. Every farmer who
raises cattle, and every ranchman, is
held by the power Of this trust which
fixes the prices for the product Of our
grazing lands at the minimum, and then
afterwards compels the consumer to
Ipay, for the manufactured product,
prices that are out of all proportion.
AS meat is a necessity to every man,
woman and child, we are all made the
victims Of this capitalistic tyranny.n
| General Miles left for the east late
yesterday afternoon. He spent yester-
day in visiting the farm of M. W. Say
age, the home Of Dan Patch and Gre
sceus.z IT saw there he said, 'sthe
four greatest harness horses in the
the world, I suppose. I am a great
lover Of horses and have always taken
occasion. on my travels to study them
It is strong evidence Of the climatic
vitality of Minnesota that Dan Patch
should have developed his greatest
speed after being brought here"

BRYAN AND

Unquestionably the most unique
episode I'm American politics today
is the recrudescence OF William j.
Bryan. IL is more remarkable than
the sustained popularity OF Thomas
Jefferson, who three times received
votes in the electoral college as a rsn-
dldate for president and who was
twice elected. IL is more unique
than the experience OF Andrew Jack
son, who was also thrice candi-
date and twice elected; and Il over
shadows by far any political event
during the present generation. Ulysses
8. Grant was popular Idol, who en-
deared himself to grateful people
by his services as soldier and states
man; but even the magic of his name
failed to secure him a nomination
for a third term. James q. Blaine
was much beloved; but after he had
been nominated and defeated, he
sunk into oblivion. Grover Cleveland.
after serving his first term and Sc

private life only to be called forth

Mrs. Rockefeller and her sister
will divide their time during the fall

and New York, making their home,
however, at the family residence in

fore he left yesterday that he did
not expect to return TO Cleveland
