Bede Makes Speech Favorlns DIvid

Washington, April 11.-For seven
hours the postoffice appropriation bill
was discussed in the house Tuesday.
Without regard to the merits of the
bill, Mr.. Bede of Minnesota arranged
text for speech brilliant in its
humor by having read a resolution
creating four states out of Texas.
Mr.. Bede said he had voted ever
since he came to congress for the fast
mail subsidy because he believed the
people of the south ought to read
northern newspapers at the earliest
possible moment, and he would con
tinue to vote for the appropriation SC
that the southern people might have
the benefit of the doubt. Speaking
of his resolution, he said:

The suggestion of Judge Parker
that the next Democratic candi-
date for president be southern
man, may not be accomplished at
the next election, but there is no
good reason why it should not be.
The South has many favorite sons
who would admirably fill that great
Office and with departing preju-
dices and united country, which
is now evident, the bars will be
thrown down and no imaginary
barrier will shut out the candi-
didates from every section. The
only questions that will be asked
by united Democracy will be: Is
he honest, and has he the ability
and experience to servo all the
people.
