Mr.. Bryal'S Speech.

Hon. w. j. Bryan arrived in
New York last Thursday, and was
greeted at Madison Square Garden
by at least 10000 people. from
every State in the Union, who went
there to extend a greeting to the
Great CommOner on his return
frem a tour of the world.
In n lengthy speech. Mr.. Bryan
stated his position on political ques-
tons. One of the most prominent
parts Of his speech was devoted to
the announcement that he had be-
come convinced that the Govern
ment should own and control the
railroads (the National Government
TO control the big trunk lines, and
the different States to control the
lines lying within their borders. J
Congressman Livingston, of
Georgia, and Senator Bailey, of
Texas, have now come out in an
interview in the Washington Post,
IN which they express unalterable
opposition to the Governmental
ownership or control of railroads.
They intimate that Mr.. Bryan
has killed his chances of receiving
the Democratic nomination in 1905.
Mr.. Livingston is probably con-
nected with some of the large cor
porations 1--WE do not know about
that.
AS for Senator Bailey, if anyone
will read THE Treason of the
Senate, now being published in a
magazine, they can readily see
where he stands. His convention
with STANDARD Oil' has given
MIN that imaginary brand upon his
forehead which Senator Tillman,
Of South Carolina, calls IS. O.. ="
which may mean either standard
or or Sold Out
The New Yoak World seems to
iaink that Mr.. Bryan has stolen
one OF the ideas of Mr.. w. r.
Hearst, in taking up the govern
mcnt ownership of railroads.
The Baltimore Sun, another cor
poration newspaper, opposes the
idea of government ownership OF
railroads.
Mr.. Bryan also advocates an
income tax, and believes the people
will demand it, as well as direct
election of United States Senators.
Yes, indeed, the corporations and
their employees will oppose any
thing which looked toward their
control, and will support Repub-
lican every time, for they know
where the milk comes from.
Virginia is as badly trust-ridden
at present as any Of the States.
AS a proof of that. remember our
railrad and insurance rates. Even

GUILTY OF CONTEMPT.
Supreme Court Decision In Case Of
Senator Patterson.

Denver.-The Supreme Court of
Colorado Monday morning handed
down two opinions In the Senator Pat
terson contempt case. The majority
opinion. which found Senator Patter-
son guilty, was written by Justice Ju.
Illus c. Gunter and was approved by
Justices Gabbert. Campbell, Gunter,
Bailey, Maxwell and Goddard. The
minority opinion. which foupd that the
respondent was not guilty Of contempt,
was by Justice Robert w. Steele.
The written opinion OF the Colorado
court, having been made public, the
News. Senator Patterson's paper, an.
nounces that the attorneys for Senator
Patterson will ask the Supreme Court
OF the United States to take jurisdic-
tion In the case. The appeal to the
highest court In the land will be made
within the next few days.
The majority opinion Of the court
covers 1GS typewriter pages. The
main points made In the document
may be stated as follows:
First-That an afiidavit Is not essen.
tial to the Jurisdiction of the court in
cases OF constructive contempt.
Second-That the ofYense Of con-
structive contempt was committed by
the respondent hy publishing the arti.
cles set out In the information and that
q direct contempt was committed by
filing the answer.
Third-That It Ia immaterIal whether
the articles or the averments of the an.
swer were true or false.
Justice Steele's dissenting opinion,
which is Of great length. Is summarized
by himself as follows:
THE court made q mistake In insti.
tuting the proceeding: q mistake In
holding that an afiidavit Is not essen
tial to Its Jurisdiction: q mistake In
holding that the acts OF the respondent
constituted contempt. But Infinitely
greater than these was the mistake
It made In holding the truth to be I'm.
material. For. aside from the fact that
It denied to the respondent important
constitutional rights. in the very M.
ture OF things those who before be.
lieved the charges TO be true are now
confirmed In their belief. and those
who did not believe them now have
their confidence In the court shaken
solely because Of the action OF the
court In refusing the respondent q
hearing and denying him the right to
offer proof In support Of the charges,
and in holding that It is entirely I'm.
material whether the matter published
IL true or false. As l am of the
opinion that II Ii not q crime In this
state to write. speak or publish the
truth Of or concerning the ofYlcial con
duct OF public ofIlcers. l must dissent
from the judgment"
