ANTI-sALO0N MEN ARE ACTIVE
Prohibition Societies of Washington
storm National Capitol at
Hearina.

WASHINGTON, Feb. H-Temperance ad-
vocates 1,Ooo strong marched through the
national capitol today In support OF the
bill introduced by Representative Weber
of Ohio to rid the District of Columbia OF
the liquor traflc. Men. women and chill
dren. representing a score OF total absti-
nence orders, and the leading churches Of
the district formed the procession, which
moved through the capitol for more than
two hours. while Representative Weber
and other prohibition advocates were speak
ing before the house committee on the Dis
trct of Columbia in an effort to secure
a favorable report on the bill. Only fifty
OF the temperance advocates were able to
get into the small committee room, but the
army of prohibitionists moved constantly
past the open doors Of the room and lent
their support TO the arguments against the
sale of liquor Repeatedly the crusaders
moved about the rotunda under the great
dome Of the capitol and again and again
the leaders Of the movement remarked:
We're moving just around the walls of
Jericho, and the barriers of the demon rum
will fall"
Surrender" was the watchword of the
reformers and many OF them pointed to the
great oil painting in the rotunda represent
ing the surrender of CORVALLIS and Bur
goyne and announcing confidently that right
and Justice always triumphs, declared that
perseverance Will inevitably bring triumph
to the temperance army.
Representative Weber was in charge Of
the prohibition speakers before the house
committee, and Robert Crane led the argu-
ment against the Weber bill In his
opening speech Mr.. webber stated that
liquor is responsible for the condition of
80 per cent Of the persons In the jails,

viewing the income from liquor licenses.
explained that 1t falls more than $500, 900
short every year of maintaining the instl-
tutions which, he said, liquor makes neces-

In support of his declaration that pro-
hibltion has been a failure wherever II
was tried, Robert Crane quoted from

GOT HIS susPENDERs BACK.
Col. J. w. ozment Was Touched For a
Pair Of Fine Suspenders.

Col. J. w. Ozment, manager of the
local telephone exchange, fire insur-
ance writer, and town builder. was in
a predicament yesterday-some one
had elOped with his suspenders. The
pants arresters were not the ordinary
cheap article, but the pretty silk ar
ticle with large gold buckles on them.
Mr. Cement had sent his pants to a
local pressing club, one of the best in
the city. reliable and good for all loss
es. to have them pressed. and the sus.
penders were left attached. II so
happens, IL seems, that an employe
took a fancy to the suspenders and
detached them. and appropriated
them. He also quit his job. and last
night was at the station to take an
outgoing train, when Deputy Sheriff
Tom Gambrell appeared on the
scene and laid a restraining hand on
him. He was searched for the miss
ing suspenders. suspicion having been
aroused against him. and smuggling
nicely in his little grip we're the lost
suspenders. The man was promptly
taken to the county bastile and locked
up, and the suspenders were deliver
ed to Mr.. Ozment this morning.

at every step, and the president was
finally forced to compromise with the
railroad republicans in the senate in
order to secure their support. Even
that amendment, secured after ire
mendous effort, falls short of what it
should be. 1t aims to stop rebates and
passes-and the railroads profit pc
cuniarily by both the stoppage of re-
bates and the prohibition of passes
but eXtortionate rates still exist, and
state legislation for the reduction of
rates has resulted in an agitation on
the part of the railroads for legisla-
ton which will deprive the state of
authority and centralize all regulation
in congress. The democratic party
must meet the issue presented; it
must resist the Entertainments upon
the authority of the states. 1t must
insist upon the exercise of federal
power for the regulation of interstate
commerce, and 1t must insist upon the
exercise of state authority for the eN-
ercise of all power vested i'm the state.
This question has grown in impor-
lance during the past year and its
prominence will be increased If any
attempt is made to impair state au-
thority. The republican party is as
incompetent to regulate the railroads
as it to exterminate the trusts and to
reform the tariff.
The democratic party has I'm three
national campaigns demanded effect
i've railroad regulation, while the re-
publican national platforms have been
silent upon the subject The presi-
dent has partially adopted the demo
cratic view on the subject, but so far
the republican leaders have resOlutely
opposed IT, The president is helping
to educate the people up TO the need
Of railroad regulation but his party,
under its present leadership, is power
less to accomplish this or any other
important reform. If the democratic
party will clearly and unequivocally
demand. first. the ascertaining of the
value of all the railroads. second, the
preventing of overcapitaliZatiOn; and
third. the reduction of rates to
point where they will yield only q
reasonable return upon the real value
of roads-if the party will do this, II
will commend itself not only TO demo
Gratis but to those republicans who
have been led to study the railroad
question. The railroad situation pre-
sents vital issue. and the issue
should be so stated that every one
can understand the party's position.
While democrats may differ as to the
relative importance of the trust ques-
ton, the tariff question and the rail
road question, all must agree that the
party must take the side Of the com
mon people on all three questions.
Let the line be drawn between

GOVERNMENT OWNER
SHIP OF RAILROADS
WILL NOT BE AN ISSUE IN THE
COMING PRESIDENTIAL CAM
PAIeN, SAYS BRYAN'S
COMMNER.
Outlines Plan Of Action
The Trust Question, the Tariff Cues
ton and the Railroad Question
Will Share Public Attention.
Government Ownership
Not the Issue.

As the campaign approaches 1t be-
comes more and more evident that
of the enonomic questions, three
the trust question, the tariff question
and the railroad question, will share
public attention, and these three real
~ present the same issue between
the general public and the privileged
classes. Shall the government be ad-
ministered in the interest OF the whole
people or in the interest of a few?
This is the issue presented by the
trust question, the tariff question and
the railroad question.
The government ownership is not
an immediate issue. A large majority
of the people still hope for effective
regulation, and while they so hope,
they will not consider ownership.
While many democrats believe-and
Mr.. Bryan is one of the number-that
public ownership offers the ultimate
solution of the problem. still, those
who believe that the public will final
~ in self-defense be driven to owner
ship, recognize that regulation must
be tried until the masses will be ready
to try a more radical remedy.
Regulation cannot be sufficiently
tried within the next year, and there
is no desire anywhere to make gov
eminent ownership an issue in 1908.
Mr. Bryan fully agrees with those
who believe that il would be unwise
to turn attention from regulation, on
which the people are ready to act, to
government ownership, upon which
the people are not ready TO act. To
inject the government ownership
question into the next campaign
would simply give representatives OF
the railroads a chance TO dodge the
issue of regulation and deceive the
public.
So far, the railroads have been sue
cessful in preventing effective federal
regulation, and state regulation has.
as a rule, been restrained by the
United States courts. II is about
twenty years since the interstate com
merce commission was created. II re.
quired about ten years for the courts
to find out that the powers conferred
were insufficient, and then il took
ten years to secure an amendment.
