SAY GRAND CANYON
 Is GREATEST SIGHT
Party of Globe Trotters Discover New Beauties in Arizona Chasm.

-
 After a Journey completely encir- cling the globe and including a visit to every civilized nation on earth, and after seeing every world wonder known, John A. Mcdowell. muiti-mil- lionaire of Philadelphia, and members of his party who have been travelling for over two years, have reached the conclusion that the Grand Canyon of the Colorado in Arizona is by far the most stupendous of all the worlds natural wonders.
 This conclusion was reached after MT. McDowell and members of his party returned from a visit to the Grand Canyon, where they remained for fortnight and made investiga- tiohs and discoveries of new beauties that have hitherto been hidden to tourists. and which have never been depicted by Moran or any other paint CT.
 McDowelrs party includes, in addi. tion to himself. Miss NJ A. Mcdowell, Miss Marion l.. Haines and Dr. Wal ther Hhate.
 Rhate. who has accompanied the par v oi lhtlI lWO years lOuE OI Ine world, said that in all of their travels nothing to compare with the can yOn had been encountered. =
 We were fortunate enough to get some glimpses of the Grand Canyon and make some investigations on this trip that few people have experienced" said Dr. Rhate. "The beaten path to the canyon is well known, but so many new beauties are unfolded to one who blazes a trail for himself in this great region that the real beau ties and magnificence of the immense area are practically unknown to tn, ordinary sightseer. l would advise every American to see the Grand Can yOn before searching out any of the wonders of the Old World There is nothing in Nature in any other coun- try, that can possibly compare with it." a- Al

TEN PER CENT RAISE
 ON FREIGHT RATES
What 1t Will Mean if 1t Actually
 Comes to Pass.

The Republican has received from the New York Central railroad com pany a modest little publication of twenty pages, entitled 'The Freight Rate Primer" There has been a deal of talk recently of the proposed ad- vance of 10 per cent in freight rates by the railroads generally. as move preferable to that of discharging em- ployes or cutting down wages. to place railroad properties on legitimate pro fit taking basis again. since the reac- tion of the hard times nearly year ago. Much has been written in criti- cism and protest, but the Tact remains that the railroad business must be run in busineSs-like way or disaster fol- lows, and this little primer is design ed to show up the truth of the situa- lion; to show that it is better to charge those who can afford it a trifle more for freight than it is to cut down the wages of those whose pay checks are small enough anyway. The facts con- tained are quite interesting, being set forth plainly and being quite surpris- ing to readers. They clearly demon llldl lllt lV pti Ctnl ldiSt OuSiib to make but small difference In the cost of living. but in the aggregate an increased revenue to the raill pads that would spell prosperity beth for the companies and their employees.
 The first page contains an excerpt from a speech by President Roosevelt announcing his belief that notwith- standing the water that has been ln- jectcd into the stock of the railroads in some places. the real value of the railroad properties of the country equals the stock and bond values, or in other words that the properties have grown to meet the values which are now real. Another page shows that the average cost of transportation in this country is 40 per cent less than in any other country, while the wages paid to the million and half employees is 50 per cent greater. Then comes a series of illustrations more specific in character, showing what an increase of 10 per cent in freight rates actually means.
 For instance there is a picture of eleven men garbed as representing ev- cry line from the hod-carrier 70 the banker and the society swell The freight cost on all the suits. hats, shoes and other apparel, from New England to the Mississippi valley, where the

BRYAN ISSUES STATEMENT.
No Harsh Words From the De
 feated Leader.
Has Faith that Democratic Principles Will Eventually
 Control

Vim. J. Bryan yesterday issued the following statement at Lincoln Neb.:
 "The election has gone against us by decisive majority. The returns are not all in and it is im- possible at the present time to an- alyze them or to say what causes contributed most to the Republican victory. We made cur fight upon a platform which embodied what we believe to be good for the American people, but it is for the people themselves to decide what laws they desire and what methods of government they prefer.
 'I have faith that the publicity which we ask .d for will yet com mend itself to the American peo- pie; that the election of senators by the people will be secured; that the iniquities of the trusts will arouse an, opposition that will re- suit in the elimination of the prim- ciple of private monopoly.
 "I am confident that the people will see the necessity for the labor legislation and tariff reduction which our platform demanded. l am confident, too, that the educa- tional work done in this campaign will result in securing greater pro- tection to bank depositars. The above are the most prominent re- forms for which we labored and I believe that these reform are yet to come, together with more effective regulation of railroads and inde- pendence for the Filipinos.
 Comments the Committee.
 II desire to commend the work of our national committee. I am entirely satisfied with MT. Mack as the chairman and with the mem bers of the committee. 1 do not see what they could have done more than they did and as for my self, I put forth every effort in my power to secure victory for our cause. The nomination came from the hands of the voters. have obeyed their command and have led as best I could. Words will not express my gratitude for the devotion which has been shown by millions of Democrats during the past I2 years.
 Neither am l able to adequate ly express my appreciation for the kind words which have been spo- ken since the election. If I could regard the defeat as purely a per sonal one I would consider it a blessing rather than a misfortune, for am relieved from the burdens and responsibilities of an office which is attractive only in propor- tion as it gives an opportunity to render larger public service. But I shall serve as willingly in pri- vate capacity as in a public one. God does not require great things of us. He only requires that we improve the opportunities present. ed and I shall be glad to improve the opportunities for service pre- sented by private life.
