NO ACTION TAKEN.
Commission Hears Excuses from
Street Railway Company.

The Corporation Commission was en-
gagged yesterday in hearing the Norfolk
and Portsmouth Traction Company in
answer to an order OF tho commission
to show cause why they should not be
fined for not complying with an order
as to repairs to certain bridges on their
lines.
The case was fully heard and taken
under advisement.
Tho commission had Engineer e. T..
d. My ers. Jr., of this city. examine the
bridges between Norfolk and the Ex-
position Grounds last December. and
on the report Of Mr.. Myers, ordered
certain repairs. The failure of the COM
pany to comply, provoked the order.
Answers Of the company were read
BY counsel, and they set out that labor
troubles were responsible for the de-
lay.
General Manager Hathaway was the
only witness. and under the question
ing of Commissioners Willard and
Stuart, ne practically admitted that the
orders as to certain repairs had been
ignored.

Bryan and Roosevelt.

Mr.. Bryan Is great because In all
his life he has never feared or hesi-
tated to champion his convictions
against his party. and to put them
in balance against his personal in
terest.
He is the first Democrat OF the world
to-day.
But he is a composite Democrat in
his present creeds. With the bulk OF
his doctrine. born OF modern demo-
cracy, there are shining sentences OF
his belief that came from the Popu-
list party, and that great economic
proposition to which he bravely linked
his name In Madison Garden was
graft pure and simple from the dying
bosom Of that old farmer band which
breathed Its honest doctrines fresh
from tho soil into our material poll
tics, and passed unstained to the vindi-
cation Of time.
Mr.. Roosevelt has grown great only
because he, too, has risen above the
partisan Born and prospered In the
camps Of privilege, he came with a
brave heart and an open mind to
Washington He followed orthodox In
the wake OF his party and In the paths
of his predecessor. But one day Wm.
r. Hearst flung at his feet an array
of unanswerable statistics to prove
the baneful existence and infquity of
the trusts The challenge rang against
n brave lnnn's shield, and Theodore
Roosevelt was never the same man
again. He buckled on his sword and
went forth to war with the merger OF
those Northern railroads under Hill
and Hartman. He has mover sheathed
since then the blade he barred In our
Democratic battle against corporate
greed and profit.
There they are-those two great
men-the greatest men In all our
country-the two greatest men IN all
the world. BY the record they stand,
each for righteousness and Justice
everywhere. BY the record they are

one or tho other Of these men should
