National Issues

this state
National Issues
We hereby express our allegiance
to the great principles Of government
advocated BY the national democratic
party, upon which we believe the fu-
ture welfare Of this republic must
depend.
We reaffirm our allegiance to that
greatest living exponent Of democratic
principles, William Jennings Bryan,
and endorse him for our presidential
nominee in 1908.
We emphatically demand the reason
able and proper control Of transpor-
tation and transmission companies and
the supervision and control Of all en-
terprises engaged in interstate COM
merce.
We favor the improvement Of the
waterways Of the Missouri valley and
the establishment ow water transpor-
tation wherever practical throughout
the Union.
We believe that the patriotic ele-
ments Of the republican party are no
longer able to control or influence
that great political organism. We be
Iieve that the machinery Of the party
has fallen under the insidious influ-
ence Of the great plutocratic power
and organized monopolies Of this ma
ton.
We denounce and condemn the ma
tional republican party for the lavish
use Of moneys belonging to the peo-
pie Of Oklahoma in the reclamation
service in other states, and pledge
our members in our national congress
to Use their best efforts to require the
lclamation service to use the money be
longing to Oklahoma in Oklahoma.
We belive that the vast contribu-
tiohs Of money by these special inter
ests have given such interests such
power over the republican party tha'
a remedy for national conditions un
der which the people suffer is impos
sible through that party.
We appeal therefore to every goo'
city who places patriotism above
commerciaiism, happiness and the vel
/ fare Of the great body Of our produc
ing class above the enrichment Of tn
/ few; and who believe in local self-goy
eminent, to join Us in a holy crusad
: for the restoration Of the people t
5 their rights.
e We enjoin upon the advocates o
democracy that they treat with ser
+ eial respect those Of cur fellow cit

l. erican people their rights to the pu

AS TO MONEY LENDERS
DRAFT OF A BILL TO REGULATE
THE BUSINESS.
Prepared by Corporation Counsel and
Approved by Commissioner West
Tax of 1000.

Commissioner Vests plan to place shy
locks usurers and other money lenders in
the District under stringent regulations, is
rapidly taking form. The draft Of bill
to govern such business has been made by
the corporation counsel and approved by
Mr.. West. The approval of his colleagues
is assured. The draft will then be sent to
Congress. $500
The proposed measure provides that it
shall be illegal to engage in the business of
lending money on security Of any kind,
direct or collateral, tangible or intangible,
without procuring license, and all per-
sons, firms. joint stock companies, volun-
tary associations and corporations engaged
in the business shall pay an annual tax of
$f.WO year. 1t is expected that those
two provisions alone would wipe out of ex-
istence some of the smaller and question
able money-lending concerns, so that the
local authorities would only have to deal
with the bigger ones However. the pro-
visions are numerous and cover every ques-
tion connected with the business, and Com
missioner West stated today they will be
easily made to toe the mark.
Too Free a Hand.
Mr.. West explained today that for a long
time the Commissioners have realized that
money lenders have too free a hand" and
that they have unquestionably been in
dulging in,extortion and charging usurious
interest for small loans. resulting in much
misery and unfairness
"A bill was introduced in Congress last
year. he said, Ito prohibit usury in the
District, and the Commissioners heartily
approved it, but it was killed before vote
was taken. We hope 1t will be brought up
again this year
Section of Commissioner Vests pro-
posed law is looked upon by him as par
ticularly important. 1t provides that every
person. firm, corporation. ETC., conducting
such business shall keep a register ap-
proved by the Commissioners showing in
English the amount of money loaned, the
date when loaned and when due, the person
to whom loaned, the property thing
named as security for the loans, where the
same is located and in whose possession,
the amount of interest. all fees. commits
sions and renewals charged and under what
name. 1t is also provided that the register
shall be open for inspection by the Com
missioners, their officers and agents, every
days except Sundays and legal holidays
between the hours of o'clock am. and 5
o'clock pm.

haps larger than any of the present first
class houses here, and its stage will be so
spacious that the most elaborate and pre-
tentious scenic productions, ,including grand
opera. can be handled. on 1t with ease. If
present plans are carried out the house

Suit in Which Senator Elkins is De-
fendant Goes Over Until Monday.


The testimony in the case Of Robert Bur-
ton and George A. Dubreuil against Senator
Elkins Of West Virginia was practically
closed yesterday with the examination of
the defendant. Attorney Worthington stated
that he expected to have another witness,
and the jury was released until this morn
ing.
After the jury had been excused counsel
conferred with Justice Wright. and it was
decided that If counsel for Senator Elkins
could secure the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company's record Of the time the train
which conveyed Senator Elkins and his wife
to New York December Is. 1901, was de-
tanned at the union station in Baltimore,
the record should go in evidence.
At the opening Of court this morning
Justice Wright advised the jurors of this
agreement and respited them until Monday,
when prayers will be argued. The argu-
ment on the law points will probably be
concluded by noon Monday. and as counsel
will probably be held to the court rule Of
the case is expected to go to the jury by
Tuesday noon.
The testimony of Senator Elkins was in
terrupted, for few minutes yesterday to
allow his wife to testify. Mrs. Elkins told
the jury she had accompanied the senator
on the trip to New York, December 10,
1901. She was positive there was no meet
ing at the union station in Baltimore, as
detailed by Burton and Dubreuil on the wit
ness stand. Mrs. Ellkins was not cross
examined and was excused.
