THREE LEADING ISSUES
Bryan Doesn't Regard Tariff

NO ONE Is PARAMOUNT
Says That He Was Incorrectly Quoted

BRIEFLY EXPRESSES HIS VIEWS

1.-THE trust question, the tariff question
and the railroad question all involve the
same great principle, namely, whether the
government should be administered for the
benefit of the few or for the benefit of the
whole of the people"
Thus spoke Mr.. William Jennings Bryan
to a Star reporter today, answering ques-
ton as to the issues before the democratic
party.
Il was not accurately quoted N New
York. said Mr.. Bryan, when l was made
to say that there were other questions more
important than the tariff. l said then, as
have often said before, that these three
questions are important.
No Question Paramount.
Men differ as to which one of these
questions is of greatest Importance, and
do not think it necessary for the party to
designate either of the questions as para
mount | have no doubt the trust question,
the tariff question and the railroad ques-
ton will all occupy public attention, and
the democratic party will favor the exter-
mination of the trusts will advocate tariff
reform and insist upon strict regulation Of
thu railroads.
"A number of other issues will doubtless
be included but these three questions are
closely connected and are likely to be con-
sidero really as parts of the same great
issue"
What do you think of the attempt of
President Roosevelt to dictate the nominal
| ton of a candidate to be his successor?
MIR. Bryan was asked.
| The great democratic leader paused but
moment, and then came the answer:
| "A candidate who is willing to run a
reform candidate ought to have a record
| so clear as not to need a sponsor. An in
! dorser on note is not generally required
when the maker is good"
Mr. Bryan again expressed a hopeful
| view concerning the democratic outlook,
| ar divided and that democratic policies are
| becoming better understood.
s. ort Stay in Washington.
| Mr.. Bryan came to town this morning to
| meet Mrs. Bryan and Miss Grace Bryan
| who spent yesterday with Mr.. and Mrs
| Cotter 7. Bride, at their home, 131 p street
| southeast. Miss Bryan has been attending
| school at Hollns, Va, and is now on her
| way home with her father and mother.
| Mr. Bryan took breakfast at the Bride
| home this morning and then came down
! town to spend busy forenoon. The first
| thing he did was to have a long talk with
| Mr.. Willis J. Abbott, manager of the ma
| tional press bureau, and formerly manager
| of Mr.. Bryan's campaign bureau. After
! ward he had conference with ex-senator
! James X. Jones, former chairman of the
F, democratic national committee. 1t was be-
tween these two conferences that Star

ORCHARDS CAREER AS GAMBLER

The cross-examinatiOn of Harry orchard.
leading witness at Boise today against Will
liam d. Haywood has been carried down to
the dynamiting of the indicator mine at
Cripple Creek. Colorado, in September. 1903
and it's progress indicates that it will con-
sumo much more time than the direct, ex-
animation. After protest from Orchard
against the speed of Attorney Richardson's
questions, which he said cut off his an
swers and wrangle between counsel on
the subject, the cross-examination of the
witness as to his experiences in the Occur
d'Alene country was resumed.
The defense laid the foundation for a
showing that Orchard was not at Wardner
the day the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mill
was blown up. and then passed on to the
lif, of Orchard in Utah in 1899. 1900 and
1901. The witness Owed to a lot of gam
bling at which he repeatedly lost his earn
ings. The defense showed that until after
he went to Cripple Creek in the autumn of
1902 Orchard had never known Haywood,
Meyer, Pettibone or Simpkins The witness
the indicator mine.
The witness testified that he heard Meyer
ard Haywood deliver speeches at Cripple
CreeN after the strike of 1903 began pro-
testing against any violence by the union
men.
Attorney Richardson sought to show that
Orchard had suggested blowing up the
powder in the indicator. and while the
witness admitted that he told w. F. Davis
of the existence of the powder and that the
idea of setting it off had come to him. he
swOre that Davis first suggested the act
Orchard identified William Easterly, who
at the call of Mr.. Richardson came from
the back of the court room, as the man
who had aided him in the experiments that
led to making the bomb finally used in the
indicator.

Orchard said he had communicated his
thoughts about blowing up the mine to
Davis.
Orchard said there were about fifty non
union men working in the indicator mine.
lHe believed the touching off of the carload
of powder would have meant the death Of
all.

SOME STERLING FACTS.
Truth About Citizens the Evening
News Tried to viIIify.

In order to make political capital i'll
a last desperate effort to elect it's pet
candidate for mayor, the Evening
News referred to the Russian born cit
liens of Lincoln as assets of the sa-
loonkeepers." What are the facts?
The Russian born citizens of Lin
coin are home owners. No other class
OF Lincoln's population can show more
home owners in proportion to num-
bers. Merchants who have dealings
with these Russian born citizens are a
unit in declaring that they pay their
bills with remarkable promptness.
With families larger than the average
theys spend a lot of money for gro
ceries, and they spend comparatively
little with the saloons. Being ignorant
of American customs they often get
into the limelight, but that they are
striving to be worthy of American
citizenship is evidenced by their frr,,
gality, their industry and their desire
tc become home owners. Does the
News deem it a crime to have been
born under another flag than the stars
and stripes?

AN UNcALLED-FoR INSULT.
Evening News characterizes Russian
Citizens as PurchasabIe.

In its anxiety to elect Mr.. Hutton the
Evening News came to be willing to
go any length, even to insulting the
Russian citizens whose only fault is
that they are not so well educated as
the eminent gentlemen who edit the
News. The News says that the Russian
voters are assets of the saloonkeep-
ers''
This is an insult to men who love
liberty well enough to seek it 1000
miles away from their native land
and who are doing their best to make
homes for themselves and their fam
lies. The News gloats over the fact
that the Russian voters have been
practically disfranchised at city elec-
tions by scheme that put off the city
election until after the Russian voters
