MR.. BRYAN.

Mr.. w. j. Bryan has paid Portland
another visit and was the object of
much attention. He is on lecturing
tour, receiving, it is said as high as
$500 a night, and so can well afford
to look pleasant and talk optimistic
ally. 1t is nothing to his discredit
that he makes a great deal of money
in this way; almost anybody would
do the same if they could; but it is
an indication that he is just about
like the rest of mankind, and likes to
see the dollars rolling his way. He is
a pleasing and entertaining speaker,
a good citizen, man with large
store of knowledge, much of it gained
by observant travel; but there is slight
if any evidence that he is or ever could
be a great statesman, or that he would
be entirely fit or safe man to elect
president of the United States.
The people like to meet Mr.. Bryan,
like to have him drop around occa-
sionally, even like to roll up their
shining plunks to hear him talk,
though he says nothing new or Of any
especial Importance; but when it
comes to electing him president they
balk, and vote for his opponent. Mr..
Bryan was beaten pretty badly for
president in 1896, and being nomi-
mated again in 1900 was beaten a
good deal worse In 1904 he dropped
out. and Parker was beaten even worse
than Bryan had been four years be-
fore. That turned the tide toward him
again, and it is considered certain
that he will again and for the third
time be the nominee in 1908. He will
very likely run somewhat stronger
than he did on previous occasions; he
is older, wiser, and more trustworthy;
the people like him rather better and
are not quite so much afraid of him
that is as a president; but they are
not likely to elect him in 1908, unless
events now unforeseen should take
place. Mr.. Bryan is a thoroughgoing
democrat in politics, and the democra-
tic party is still largely in the minor
ity in this country and is likely to re-
main so for a considerable number of
years to come.
But Mr.. Bryan need not worry. If
he can stand two crushing defeats so
easily, he won't much mind another
one, and for years yet he will have the
ability to keep the white plunks roll
ing his way by the thousands, which,
ID while it isn't everything on earth,
does a good deal to make a man con-
tented, good natured and optimistic
o yes, we all like Mr.. Bryan, but when
it comes to voting for him for Presi,
dent-well, that's different.

LONG CONTEST ENDED

Washington. Dec. II An impor
tant decision OF the interstate COM
merce commission was handed down
Yesterday by Commissioners Prouty
in the case of the Cattle Raisers' as
sociation OF Texas and the Chicago
Live Stock Exchange VS.. the Chica-
go, Burlington and Quincy railroad
company and several other import
ant western and southwestern lines.
The subject of complaint was the
so-called terminal charge of 81 per
car imposed by the defendants for
the delivery of carloads of livestock
at the Union stockyards at Chicago.
This matter in one form or another
has been before the commission for
the last ten years and has been the
subject of much discussion and re-
port In the decision rendered on
the facts disclosed by the records of
the case, it is held that the "termin-
al charge of 81 per car eXacted by
the defendants for the delivery of
livestock at the Union stock yards in
Chicago with respect to shipments
from points without the state of Hi
nois is unjust end unreasonable and
unLuly discriminatory, and that such
charge should not exceed 81 per
car
1t is further held that decree of
a court dismissing a bill brought to
enforce an order of the commission
made previous to ne amendment OF
June 80 is not a bar to the right of
the commission to examine with res
pect to a date subsequent to June
% the same rate involved in that
proceeding"
The defendants are ordered 10 put
in force before Feb. |, 1908, a ter
minal charge not eXceeing 81 pei
car.
