SIX KILLED in

his son and two daughters, Carl Tim

en- part in public affairs extensively.
| The bodies were taken to Column
| bia City and will be taken to Fort
! Wayne tonight. The accident hap
pened one-half a mile west of Col
umbia city. The auto was stopped at
the crossing by freight train and
drove on the tracks behind the ca
boose, and the driver failed to see
the east-bound Manhattan limited
passenger train which was passing at
high speed.

secure the adjustment Of rewards Of
service. And they believe that this
can be done by making it more re-.
sponsive to the will of the people,
and if you will read the platform
through you will find that there are
several specific reforms that are ask
ed for. One for instance, is the
election of senators by direct vote
of the people. Why is that desired?
In order that the senate may be the
servant Of the people; in order that
it's representatives may speak for the
people, and reflect the sentiment of
the people.
1t desires a reduction of expendi-
lures. Why? Because the people
who pay taxes are over burdened and
appropriations are larger than they
ought to be. 1t desires the reforma-
ton of our system OF taxation
Why? Because we believe that the
present system lays too large por.
ton of the burden upon the strug
Cling masses and throws too small {
portion of the burden upon those
with large fortunes and large in
comes An income tax as suggested
is not going to bring absolute per
lection, but a thing that will LEAF
to nearer approach to justice il

government. And so may take vi
different planks and show you how
they are all tending to one end, on
purpose, and that is to make thi
government just the whole people.

Bryan Tells Normal Stu
dents a Lot Of Dreams
of His

Fairview, Lincoln, Neb., July 49,
Declaring that society has not given
to the producer his equitable re-.
ward and that administration Of gov
eminent should be changed to rem
edy this condition, VIM. j. Bryan to-
day from the lawn of his house, de-
livered one of his most important
5utterances in the last several years.
The occasion was the visit of several
hundred teachers and students of the
Fremont, Neb., normal school. Mr..
Bryan spoke in part as follows:
4 You are preparing yourselves for
teachers and what i want to say to
you today is in your line of work.
If you will examine the platform
adopted at Denver you will find that
it closes with an appeal to those who
desire to see this government a
government Of the people, by the peo-
pie and for the people, and SO adj
ministered that it will, as far as hui
man wisdom, can secure to each in
dividual a reward from society pro-
. portional to the contribution that
that person makes to the welfare of
society. To my mind this is the ideal
toward which a government should
strive. One of our complaints
against personal conditions is that
the rewards Of society are not equit-
ably distributed. Take for instance
your occupation or profession. 1t is
one Of the most important we have,
/ It could not be more important work
and yet what is your remuneration?
q + am sure / will not abuse any Of
you when I tell you think the
teachers of this country are not over.

Now, compare your compensa
ton and your work with the com
pension and work of those who have
secured privilege and favoritism
Compare your work and your reward
with those for instance, who have
secured control Of some great indus
try and who, by means Of that con
troll are able to reach their hands
into the pockets of eighty million,
Of people and by fixing arbitraril.
prices Of that which they sell ant
which people must have, are able t,
gather rewards larger than the!

.The Democratic party is not ex
pecting to bring the milleniem

ton. Those who represent that part,
\ understand that governments are ad
II ministrated by human hands and tina
all things that mans hand touche

not expect our nation will be fire
from fault when 1t is entrusted t
. the hands of those who call them
selves Democrats. But it is the pur
pose of those who are Democrats t
