James why his party had not repealed
the law when the "machinocrats"
covered up their graft by trickery
that was under the form of law.
DR.. Bruner announced himself as
favoring local option with the county
as the unit and not only favoring ths
2 cent. rate for passengers on the
railroad, but also for lower freight
rate. When Mr.. James pointed to how
Beckham had closed the saloons in
Louisville on Sunday. DR.. Bruner
made the fitting reply: at took Gov
ernor Beckbam six years out of seveh
to find out there was a Sunday clos
ing law"
In answer to sending out the Mill
tia to Louisville not one member of
the companies was seen on the stree,
until three hours after the polls clos
ed and not one person could be found
that would swear he had seen a sol.
der during the voting hours,
At the outset of the speech DR..
Bruner said they would speak of
state issues only.
Ollie Jollies the Crowd
Congressman James made his us
ual funny speech. and many laughs
were brought out, but when it came
to facts and meeting issues Ollie art
fully lodged everyone and led his
audience off with his humor. Ollie
would start in the state on some issue
and with a few remarks be off on
something foreign, and drop the sub
ject by leading his hearers off.
Both speakers paid each other
splendid compliments and Congress
man James said DR.. Bruner was the
best speaker in the Republican party
DR.. Bruner believed. as the press, in
dicates that the mantle of John Sharp
Williams will fall to Ollie James.
| Expressions of pleasure were plen-
tiful after the speaking. and many
Iold Democrats rushed forward to
shake hands with Dr.. Bruner He is
an earnest speaker and his audience
is compelled to listen. During the
1.-TWO hours a majority OF the audience
had to stand, but not one faltered
and the audience remained intact a,
the close.s
Something of interest was why the
machine had to send Ollie James,
recognized one of the most powerful
speakers of the Democratic party in
the state, to meet DR.. Bruner. and
not his opponent vreeland. 1t is
clear his power as a speaker is rec
ognized and he will be well guarded
by the politicians.
Capt. Edwin Farley, Republican
candidate for state treasurer. was
present, and although not taking the
stump made many friends in his own
cordial way.

The dowager empress is falling
rapidly. She has suffered strokes of
apoplexy and her vitality clearly is
lessening. The failing Of the EN-
press health has been accompanied
during the last days Of her reign by
the unusual occurrence OF a kaleido-
scopic recast of the departments OF
state, as well as a resolution to pre-
pare China for a constitution and the
first participation in the government
of an electorate.
Furthermore. the dowager empress
.contemplates wide reaching and fund
amental changes in the metropolitan
government. She plans to change

IN CHINA
IMPERIAL FAMILY TAKES STEPS
FOR SELF-PROTECTION.
Council of State Called at Summer
Palace TO Consider Conditions
of Empire.

Picking, Sept. 3.-The imperial
family of China is taking far reaching
steps to retain its hold on the empire
and save the throne from disloyal
advisers. The ruling dynasty is OF
Manchu origin, and fearing that the
Chinese race proper is bent on un-
seating the Manchus II is proposed
to amalgamate the two races.
Council of State Called.
A council of state, attended by
high officials from remote parts OF
the empire. began at the summer
palace today to consider the condi-
ton of the empire and the sugges-
tions of the memorialists for race
amalgamation. The four main points
ARE:
/. The disbandmentsQf the Man
chu banner troops, the abolition of
their pensions, and the submersion
of their offices into the regular army
2. The daughters of Cinnamon of
the upper classes will be eligible to
marry into the imperial family, and
this promises future Chinese-Man-
chu emperor.
3. Chinese families no longer will
be permitted to bind up their feet
and this will remove the difference
in the appearance between Chinese
and Manehu women.
4. Manchu will be required to take
surnames like Cinnamon. The gov
eminent hopes that within ten years
the two races will be indistinguish'
able.

MIR. Davis VS.. Mr.. Bryan.

Ex-senator Henry G. Davis In his
very interesting and instructive re-
marks at the McLure House last night
said some things that ought to be
conveyed quietly to Mr.. Bryan. Il
the extent and directness Of Mr..
Davis remarks indicate the depths
Of his feeling, he regards the sugges-
ton Of the government ownership Of
railroads as one of the most danger
Gus propositions now before the coun-
try. Mr.. Davis referred at length to
the danger of creating a great politi-
cal machine, through government
control Of so vast an army of employ
ers, to the probabilities of inefficient
management, and to the loss in public
revenues.
Mr.. Bryan has probably heard all
these arguments before, but he has
not probably heard them from the lips
Of man whom a national Demo.
cratic convention named for the high
Office of Vice President. Mr.. Bryan
Is in an unfortunate. position. His
ideas and tendencies are all radical.
He believes that the government
should do a great many things for the
common good that it doesn't now do,
or hasn't done. In the matter Of gov
eminent regulation of railroad opera
ton, he has nothing better to offer
than the efficient laws that have al
ready been put on the statute books
Being a politician, of course Mr..
Bryan could not endorse these.
There is nothing left for him but
10 go further; to out-Herod Herod,
50 to speak, and then he dashes to
government ownership. The common
sense of the country, not being en-
trely swayed by conceptions Of poll
teal necessity, will not follow him.
Mr.. Davis is one of the conspicuous
opponents of the Bryan dtctum.-

Prosperity Continues.

Prosperity continues to hold sway
in West Virginia. The latest sub
stantiation is found in the report Of
State Banking Commissioner Mat
thews, Just issued, which shows an
increase Of more than one million
dollars in deposits Of the 40 State
banks in West Virginia over the re-
port of last November. These banks
have resources of nearly seventy mil
lions of dolars-a tidy little sum. The
report should be read and carefully

with the heinous offense of using a

had aimed at a sparrow and hit a

wroth. The Judge explains how dan
