The Grand Canyon.

'By all odds the most beautiful
scene on the North American Con
tinent is the Grand Canyon of the
Colorado, in Arizona" said Tobias
}. Lindley, Il physician of Phoenix,
Ariz., at the Ebbitt House last
night. DR.. Lindley has been
abroad and is ON his way home.
$50 fascinating has this scene
been to me-" he continued, ''that
during the past few years | have
often spent several days, and even

mann line of the Santa Fe and
change to little line that runs TO

days there, carrying provisions

upon the canyon. There is Il little
ridge with Il path leading np to it,
along which travellers go when
they first gaze upon this sight.
Oftentimes excu rsion parties go
there. and it is interesting to note
how the picture affects each one of
the party as he reaches the top of
that ridge. With most of them
there is prolonged exclamation
of 'Ah-h-h.' and then, wlsn they
all get there and drink in the scene

found there, but perhaps what i'm
presses one most is the realization
that it was formed in the morning
of time, long before man ever APP
peared on the earth; that it was
once part of the vast ocean, and
that it later became the bed of
mighty stream. High above the
bottom are immense pot holes,
where the wafer washed ages ago.
And the vision is so far-reachiDg,
extending, perhaps, a hundred
miles, though it does not seem that
far, that "a man can not but realize

statement that the Republicans
have stolen his ideas on the trust
question goes back to 1888, be-
fore Bryan began making any

Of that year. I'VE declare our
opposition to all combinations of
capital, organized in trusts or
otherwise, to control arbitrarily
the condition of trade among our
citizens; and we recommend TO
Congress and the state legislatures,

such legislation as will prevent
