DOnaghey at Work on Message

Gov. elect George w. Donaghey
is now at home, preparing his forth
coming message to the legislature.
The document, it is said, will be one
of the most important and contain
more recommendations than any
message delivered to the legislature
in the past twenty years. A number
of features that will be handled by
Gov. Donaghey have been reviewed
in these columns.
One of the most important
subjects, in which the people of
Arkansas are greatly interested, in
which the governor has yet failed
to make known his views, is the
prohibitian question. His friends
say he will refer TO the matter in
his message by quoting the plank in
the Democratic state platform, ask
ing the legislature to submit the
question TO the voters of the state
in = special election, to be held in
1909. This would satisfy both
factions and place the governor in
line with the platform, which he
assisted in making.
1t is also stated today that Gov.
Donaghey will recommend the ap-
preparation of $50, 600 by the legis,
lature to carry on the fight between
the state and the railroad companies
operating in Arkansas, over the
passenger and freight rates,
Several members of the legislature
have expressed themselves as favor.

Taft Displays Temper

The Associated Press sends out
the following dispatch from Shell
byville, Ky.
That Judge Taft will not permit
antagonistic partisan interruption
while addressing an audience was
illustrated at Shelbyville. He spoke
in hall which was crowded and as
he proceeded there were persistent
cries of "Bryan." The Judge re-
ferred to the interruption pleasantly
at first, but as it continued, he de-
clared with some emphasis:
"It is just such instances as this
which show why it is that the Dem
ocratic party never gets control OF
the government. 1t has elements in it
which lack the slightest sense of
responsibility, decency or courtesy.

Predicts Great Panic

The Republicans are threatening
a panic in case Mr.. Bryan is elected,
and their published prediction
caused the Democratic standard
bearer to remark in one of his re-
cent speeches:
"There will certainly be a panic
in one family" he said, "and that
will be the Taft family, for Mr..
Taft's federal salary will be with
drawn for the first time in 20 years. "

BRYAN IN NEBRASKA
DarCS the Republicans to Carry
Banners OF Eight Years Ago

VIM. j. Bryan delivered seventy
speeches in his home state, Nebraska,
last week. In his speech at
Nebraska City, he spoke as follows;
"In coming to Nebraska City |
cannot but notice the difference be-
tween the reception accorded now
and that which received eight
years ago when came as a candi-
date. AT that time you had a
branch of the starch trust here and
your people were very much agitat-
ed. The attorney general was en-
deavoring to enforce the Nebraska
statute against the trusts. 1t was
even intlmated that violence might
be attempted if came here. l
came and warned you against the
iniquitles of the trust. | told you
that when you allowed the owner
ship of your starch factory to pass
out of the hands of your own
people and into the hands of foreign
capitalists, that you had no assur-
ance of retaining the industry.
The prediction has been fulfilled in
the short time that has elapsed. The
factory has closed down, the ma
chinery has been removed and the
buildings are in the hands of a
wrecking crew. When / was here
/ said that | would denounce the
trust even in the shadow of the
starch factory. Where are the Re
publicans who mockingly wrote to
me after the election and declared
that the shadow of the starch fac
tory reached across the state? How
far does its shadow reach now?
"The Democrats exhibited here
today some of the banners that the
Republicans carried in their parade.
Why don't the Republicans carry
them this year? Why have those
banners been cast aside by the Re-
publicans? will leave five dollars
with the chairman of this meeting
to be given as a donation to the
Republican campaign committee in
this city if the Republicans carry in
their parade the banners which they
boastingly carried eight years ago. "
Mr.. Bryan then handed the chair
man a five dollar bill, and con-
tinued
"Your starch works banners are
discarded now as the full dinner
pail has been discarded in the labor
centers of the East. The more ex-
perience the people have with the
trusts the more ready they are to
say with the Democrats that a
private monopoly is indefensible
and intolerable.i"
