FINE DOGS IN THE FIELD
THE GEORGIA FIELD TRIAL
ASSOCIATION is ON.

WAYNESBURG,, Ga, Jan. 9.-Hunt-
ers and dog lovers from all parts of
the country are among the many hum
dreds Of interested spectators who are
assembled here to attend the fourth
annual meeting of the Georgia Field
Trial association. Eleven settlers and
six pointers have been entered for the
trial and among them are some of the
finest and best trained dogs in the
United States. There are probably no
finer bird dogs in the world than some
of those entered for today's trial. Much
pains and patience has been spent in
training the dogs during the past year
and fine sport may be expected. The
conditions are almost ideal. The reser-
walton, on which the trials are held
includes about 10000 acres, is located
near this town and has the important
advantage that there is always suffi-
| cient amount of game to be found
there. During the last four years the
fame of the Waynesboro grounds has
spread all through the country and
even across the ocean and among the
SPECTATORS attending the trial are sew
| eral English sportSmen. Capt. r. l..
Stone, of Atlanta. is the president of
| the Field Trial association. Mr.. 7. 7.
| Ashford of birmingham, England, a
distinguished field trial manager, will
act as judge at today's trials.

JACK JOHNSON MUST WAIT.
O'Brien Declines to Meet the Black
Heavyweight.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. SACK
O'Brien will not consent to box Jack
Johnson. the black fighter, whose man
ager, Kick Abrams, placed $4,000 with
the sporting editor of The Bulletin on
Tuesday, to bind the match.
O'Brien's Pacific coast representative
Jack Cribbins, sent a statement today
which will be read with interest. He
saws O'Brien is not a negro hater and
will fight Johnson, but not until he
has done something to make him a
card. Cribbins does not believe that
the public is anxious for such match
for he writes:
Mr.. O'Brien's future matchmaking
is left to my discretion, and 1 can as
sure you 1 will not consider Mr.
Abrams methods of advertising his
dark one while 1 have offers for con-
tests with men like Marvin Hart, Tom

Not the First Time.

1t is further declared here that the
Northern Pacific Railroad has turned
the same trick heretofore About three
years ago a contract was awarded to a
Seattle exporter having no connec-
ZION with the railroad which called for
the supplying of 1000 tons of oats at
/ price that could not be met either
in Portland or by actual buyers in the
Washington grain fields. In this in
stance. as in the recent one, the rail-
road company purchased the oats in
Chicago and shipped them to Seattle
and ultimately received the contract
price from the government.
1t is charged that in the earlier in
stance the unneard-of cut in price
caused a serious slump in the oats
market in this state. in addition to de-
priving the state farmers Of what they
consider their legitimate commercial
field.

SENATORS CHANGE PLACES
ANkENY TO WITHDRAW FROM
COMMERCE COMMITTEE IN
FAVOR OF PILES.

Senator Ankeny has withdrawn from
the senate committee on commerce,
with the understanding that his col
league, Senator Piles, is to fill the
vacancy. According to this arrange
ment Senator Piles will resign his
membership in the committee On ter
ritories, and Senator Ankeny will take
his place, says a report from the ma
tional capital.
Places in the commerce committee
are eagerly sought, even by men who

NORTHERN PACIFIC RAILWAY
TOOK CONTRACT ON Fifteen
TONS OF OATS.
Bid Submitted Said to Have Been So
Low That 1t Aroused Much
Suspicion.

The Northern Pacific Railway COM
pany is in the exporting business itself,
according to a reliable authority that
comes from Olympia, and it was the
bid of the Northern Pacific that took
the last contract awarded by the quar-
termaster's department in Seattle for
1900 tons of oats for shipment to the
PHILIPPINES.
The bid on which the contract was
awarded was so low that it aroused the
suspicious of the Portland chamber OF
commerce and inasmuch as on the face
of things the contract went to a Sc
attic bidder, the chamber started an
investigation and called upon the rail-
road company for an explanation.
1t is declared by the authority men
toned that the Portland chamber OF
commerce, which intimates that the
railroad company is giving Seattle ex-
porters a discriminatory rate in viola
ton of the interstate commerce laws,
has obtained a wholly wrong idea OF
how the thing was accomplished.
In Its Own Favor.
It is true that the railroad company
must haul the oats from the central
states to Seattle at a rate of about
half it's published tariff, but the rate
n vi i11a ic il, itC favor The
bid was awarded to a Seattle man, but
he was in fact, it is claimed mere, no
more than dummy acting for a rail-
road company.
The best rate the exporters of the
city of Portland who bid on the con-
tract could obtain was So per ton from
Missouri river points. These exporters
can go into the markets of the central
states and purchase oats just as cheap
ly, they claim, as can the Seattle ex-
porters. When they learned the figures
of the successful bid the Portland ex-
porters figured out naturally that the
Seattle man must nave an inside rate
in order to supply the 1900 tons at such
prices.
1t was reported in Portland that the
railroad company was able to give a
So rate, lawfully, on government ship
ments, inasmuch as it was a govern
ment land grant road. On the other
hand it was pointed out that this was
not a government contract, but by
private parties who delivered
the shipment to the govern
ment in Seattle. The transport
tation committee of the Portland COM
mercial body started inquiries and re-
ceived the reply from the coast offices
that nothing was known of a SIS rate
having been given to any Seattle man
on oat shipments. 1t was further
stated that the inquiry had been for
warded to head offices in ST. Paul for
reply.

AN AWAKENED DEMOCRATIC
PARTY

The Democrats Of Wisconsin have
reason to be proud Of the ticket and
platform which they have this year
presented for the endorsement Of the
people.
The platform was first adopted In
the good old way, by representatives
OF the party duly assembled In state
convention, and it was afterwards ac-
cepted by the Democratic candidates,
convened ut Madison under the pri-
mary election law. This platform, rs
has been we'll said by the Democratic
candidate for governor, Is proof Of
an awakened democracy, favorable to
determined stand for democratic
principles. IL rightly reallirms the
doctrine that tariff duties should be
levied for purposes OF revenue only;
declares for an income tax; for the
enactment Of laws giving labor and
capital their just rights; and for laws
providing punishment for the corrupt
use OF money In elections and In the
conduct OF the affairs of government,
state and national. But the platform
makes the regulation OF public SER
vice corporations the paramount Issue
In the state campaign. Two planks
are here given:
We favor the passage OF II law by the next
legislature comforting upon and dolegntnp
To munlclpnlltlos the power to Tx the price al

municipalities shall furnish holrservlco and

that the people must rule aud the

in consenting TO stand rs n candidate
for the nomination for governor, Johr
A. Aylward said

form that followed. Mr. Aylward is
man of strong personality and hon
esty of purpose; graduate OF the
states highest institution Of learning;
lawyer, and ripe and good one,
who has for eight years held the
important Office OF city attorney Of
Madison; and the record shows that
during these years he conducted some
ninety eight cases on the part Of the
city. and never lost a city case. In
politics, Mr.. Aylward has always
been an aggressive Democrat. He
believes that the triumph of demo-
cratic doctrines will best subserve the
interests of the state and nation, and
is well prepared and anxious to give
his opponents battle royal for
principle, and with hope Of success.
Under his leadership, we believe that
the Democrats throughout the state
are united in purpose as never hlfore,
and that in the present campaign their
ticket and platform will draw strength
from many sources. No surrenders,
nor compromises, have been made to
gain support from either faction of
tho Republican party, but the platform
and the candidates placed thereon
appeal most strongly for the support
OF all who favor government by and
for the people, aud who hold with
Mr.. Aylward, that public Office should
be regarded as II public trust and the
people the beneficiaries OF that trust.
The Democrat believes that the can
didacy Of Mr., Aylward is most OPP
perfume. only n few weeks ago, SEN
ator Robert M. LaFollette and his |
candidate for governor, Irvine l..
Lenroot, went up and down through |
the state declaring that the contest
over the Republican nomination for
governor was contest for principles,
not men; that the triumph Of Davidson
for governor and of Conner for lieu
tenant governor would mean u com
plete surrender OF the principles for
which the reform element in the Re-
publican party had long been CON
tending; that Davidson and Conner
would be as clay in the hands of the
forces Of monopoly. The contest was
fought to finish. Davidson and
Conner were, under the pet primary
election law Of the reformers, made
lhe Republican nominees by over
ma jorities; and the despised
,talwarts were again in the saddle.
And now comes the report-which one
san scarcely believe-that LaFollette
will stump the state for the Republi-
can ticket. out of their own mouths
are the Republican leaders condemn
ed and II we mistake not. the people
will no longer follow nor be led by
them, but will ask themselves the
question whether the welfare of the
state demands continued loyalty to
the Republican party. 1t is truly for
tunate that in this campaign the Dem
oCrats have u ticket to which indepen-
dent voters can with confidence give
their support.
