BRYAN SPEAKS IN BUFFALO
SAYS THAT HE SEEMS TO BE
RUNNING AGAINST TWO.
Declares President Has Forgotten
Democratic Loyalty to Reform
Legislation in Congress.

BUFFALO. n. Y, September 22.-Wil-
liam j. Bryan reached this city at $50
o'clock last night, after the hardest day
of his campaign. From the moment he
began speaking in this state at Brock
port, early in the day. until he had fin
ished his remarks here the democratic
candidate assailed at every turn Presi-
dent Roosevelt, Mr. Taft and the repub-
lican leaders. He spoke of the conflict
which he said existed between the Presi-
dent and the republican managers of Con-
gress. replied specifically to certain queries
propounded to him in an open letter in
the Chicago Tribune, attacked the Presi-
dent for what he said was his failure to
enforce the antitrust laws, and from
which he said the President could not
escape; denounced Senators Platt and
Depew as having betrayed the people,
charged the republicans with turning the
financial system over to Wall street, and
finally poured a volley of denunciation
into the Standard Oil Company.
Unusually Aggressive.
Whether or not following closely on
the heels of his conferences Sunday with
Judge Parker and former Senator David
B. Hill. the vigor of his speech was due
to the conclusions reached is not known
but it was admitted that at no time dur
ing the present campaign has Mr. Bryan
been so aggressive. He made a dozen
speeches to large and enthusiastic crowds
at Brockport, Holley, Albion, Medina,
Mddleport, Lockport. Mia CARA Falls.
Sanborn. Suspension Bridge and several
smaller places.
Cheering crowds at the station here and
to his hotel. Then he went to Humboldt
Park in an automobile to speak to a vast
throng. From the park he went to Con-
vention Hall, which was packed, while
outside was still a great assemblage, ne
cessitating brief overflow talk.
Running Against Two Men.
1.-The President has seen fit to give the
republican candidate another indorse-
ment," said Mr.. Bryan. 1T seems that
am running against two republicans in
stead of one; but our platform is so
plain and the purpose of our party is so
we'll expressed in that platform that 1 am
prepared to meet the argument of one or
both of them
Reaching the climax of his attack, Mr.
Bryan said that. although the President,
10 whom he referred as 1.-The" President
who picked the" candidate for 1.-The" re-
publican party, had called attention to
certain things that had been accom-
plished in the way of reform, the demo-
Gratis in the House and Senate had been
more loyal to reforms than republicans,
and, he said, 1.-The President is ungrateful
to the democrats when he intimates that
a democratic victory would prove calam-
ity to the country"
Leaves for Michigan.
Mr.. Bryan proceeded to his car in the
Michigan Central station, from which
place he left at IL 80 o'clock for Detroit
The Michigan visit provides for only two
speeches, one at Ann Arbor in the after
noon and the other at Detroit in the
evening.

RECOMMENDATIAN FOR HARBOR AP-
PROPRIATION NADIA Washington
dispatch of the 14th inst. states that
Secretary of War Taft has submitted
to Congress the report of the gov.
eminent engineers who made an ex-
animation of our harbor last Janu-
airy, fand recommend the appro-
priation of $4,000 for it's improve
ment by dredging a west-channel to
the depth of twelve feet, provided
that the abutting property-owners
put in bulkheads for retaining the
fill from excavation at their own ex-
pense. This condition will have to
be provided for, of course, before the
appropriation, if made, becomes
available. AS this matter was un-
derstOod at the arrangement of pre-
liminaries by the Board of Trade and
the visiting Congressman, it is
'hought there will be no delay from
that cause.

President ROOSEVELT, in a special
message to Congress, Tuesday, urged
that body to provide for building
four battleships of largest and most
approved type, at once. He stated
that arbitration cannot be relied upon
as an effective remedy for interna.
tional differences, though it should
be utilized to the fullest extent.
Disclaiming any intention on the
part of this government to engage in
q war of conquest, the President
made it plain that our country could
i'll afford to relapse into place where
insult from other powers would have
to be borne in silence.

An Adequate Rem sdy.

Some OF the States have constitu-
tiOnal provisions by which the Leg
islature, while in session. NAV sub.
init proposed laws to the State SUI
preme Court, for the purpose OF de-
tcrminlng in advance their cOnSttu-
tiOna!jtY. Had the Washington con
>titutlon contained such provision
the cOnstitutiOnality of the rate
making powers of the Railway Com
mission might have been settled in
1908, thus saving the State Treasury
hundreds of thousands of dollars and
our people would not have been
obliged to wait four long years to
find out where they stand on such an
important matter. 1t seems some
what queer to the average individual
that it takes over one hundred thou
sand dollars from the pockets of the
taxpayers to enact laws, then turn
about and appropriate more than
one-half as much to the Courts to tell
us they are not good. Why not have
the validity of legislation determined
in advance to save such great ex-
pense and prevent our affairs from
being kept in state of uncertainty?
The practice seems to be gaining
momentum with our Legislature to
desist from passing laws to pro-
mote the welfare of our citizens and
protect their rights, while this body
seems to be alert in formulating
schemes to raise more revenue, create
more offices, and cast more burdens
upon the public. Need we wonder
that many good men are losing faith
in representative government? In
the last analysis, tree is judged by
its fruits.
