BUSINESS IMPROVES.
WITH The RAILROADS And
OUTLOOK is BRIGHT.
Better Than for Several Years Back
Says Crop outlook in West Is Good
Railroads Must Spend Money to
Keep Roadbed In Good Shape to
Handle Business Offered Them.

Returns from the railroads gen.
orally show that those roads not de-
pendent upon coal, steel and lumber
industries have been doing well re-
GENTLY" said Commissioner Lane of
the Interstate commerce commission
recently "Of course, they have not
done SO well as last year. Generally
they have decided not to make any
reduction either in wages or in rates
of freight affecting the next three
months, which is an indication that
they believe that business will keep up.
There are some curious things
about prevailing conditions" contin-
ued Mr.. Lane. For instance, the Lee
high Valley the other day gave us a
report on net earnings for the first
five months of this calendar year, to-
gether with similar reports covering
the preceding five years, and the show
ing this year was larger than that of
any other year during the period in
Dictated.
"The prospect for large crops in the
west is extremely good. Railroad men
do not expect normal conditions to be
resumed Immediately, but look for
steady improvements.
Must Maintain Roadbeds.
"The railroads must spend money in
maintaining their roadbeds and equip
ment of their lines in order to meet the
demands of commerce, because they
are most seriously embarrassed when
they are not able to handle business
offered them. This was shown by the
floating of the Pennsylvania bond is
sue.
THE railway rate act is admitted
by candid railroad men themselves tC
have been of estimable value. The
enforcement of the law against rebat
ing and our tenacious purpose to stoI
discrimination have held them up to &
conformity with the law that is with
out precedent"

DEMONSTRATING
NATIONAL COMMITTEE NET
CONVENTION WORK STARTED
Harmonious Meeting at DenVer-T. A.
Bell of California Elected Temporary
Chairman Without opposition-Sat-
isfactory to Bryan and Sullivan
Wcodson of Kentucky Is Secretary.

Theodore A. Bell of California was
chosen as temporary chairman of the
democratic national convention by the
committee on arrangements. No selec-
ton was made for the permanent chair
manship, this matter going over until
the meeting of the full national COM
mittee is held. The men most proml-
nently mentioned in this connection at
present are Representative Henry u.
Clayton of Alabama and Judson T.
Harmon of Ohio. Governor Joseph w.
Folk of Missouri and Senator Joseph
w. Bailey of Texas are also strongly
favored. Other appointments made by
the committee on convention arrange
ments, and which unquestionably will
be made permanent were as follows:
General secretary, Urey Woodson of
Kentucky.
Assistant general secretary, Edwin
Stone of Washington, d. G.
Sergeant at arms, John l. Martin,
Missouri.
Chief assistant sergeant at arms, j.
s. Fem of Indiana.
Chief doorkeeper, Eugene w. Sulli-
van, Illinois.
Parliamentarian, N. D. Crutchfeld,
Kentucky,
Chaplain for the opening day, Ri.
Rev. James j. Keane, archbishop of
Wyoming.
Official stenographer, M. M. Blum
berg of Washington, d. c.
Those present at the committee
meeting Saturday were Chairman
Thomas Taggart, Secretary Urey
Woodson, Roger c. Sullivan, Illinois;
R. M. Johnson of Texas, James Dahl
nan of Nebraska, Norman e. Mack of
New York, and Governor John e. Os-
borne of Wyoming. Two members,
John T. McGraw of West Virginia and
Clark Howell of Georgia, were absent,
he proxy of the former being held by
Mr.. Sullivan of Illinois, while Urey
Woodson represented Mr.. Howell of
Georgia.
The temporary chairman was select
ed unanimously within a few minutes
after the committee met and without
duOIuSI uctulS DSlhS ouSSColVh' " ANA'
Johnson of Texas offered the motion
selecting Mr. Bell as temporary chair
man and it was promptly adopted.
Little talk has so far been heard
concerning the platform, but it is gen
orally believed among the recognized
leaders now here that the fight over
the injunction plank" in the repub
lican resolutions committee may find
parallel when the democratic plat
form builders are fairly at work. 1t is
generally understood that in the event
of the Bryan people securing control
of the resolutions committee the
declaration of principles will follow
closely the planks of the Lincoln
platform"
The vice presidential situation, from
the present outlook, offers the greatest
encouragement to that class of dele
gates which is looking always for ex-
element at a political convention.
