W. ]. BRYAN's COMMENT.
President and Congress Right on
Some and Wrong on Others.

JACKSON. Mich. April 16.-Wiliam J.
Bryan. after reading the news from
Washington relative to the probable ac
ton by Congress on a number of meas
ures which the President has particularly
urged. said:
II think the President and Congress
are right on some of these questions and
wrong on others. For instance, l think
that Congress was wrong In not relieving
the laboring men from the operation of
government by injunction and the anti
trust law. | think the President was
wrong in tying the labor proposition to
the proposition in regard to the trusts.
His plan relating to the trusts was. /
think in favor of the trusts rather than
against them. The two propositions
ought to be considered separately and
ca CHI upon it's own merits.
~ think Congress is wrong in opposing
the measure to prevent the watering of
stock and that the President is right in
endeavoring to prevent child labor in the
District of Columbia l am glad that
Congress and the President agreed about
the improvement of the inland waterways
and the quantity of compensation to en-
ployes injured in public service. This
does not cover the whole ground. but 1t Is
what l mean when l say Congress and
the President are right in some things
and wrong in others

Another Caucus This Morning.
Special Dispatch to The star.
HAGERSTOWN, Nd. April 16.-Fol-
lowing caucus last night that lasted al
most until midnight another caucus was
held this morning, with the hope of ar
ranging a slate that would be SatiSfac-
tory to the convention. The leaders gem
orally were for harmony. and were ready
to concede points in order that harmony
might prevail.
It was agreed that William Z. Roulette
of Hagerstown should be the enc dele
gate to the national convention. but there
was a spirited contest in regard to the
other Senator Matthias of Frederick
had been prominently mentioned as the
other delegate up until the arrival Of the
Allegany and Garrett county delegations
yesterday evening. Both of these dele
cations announced that they each wanted
to send a delegate to the national con-
vention.
The chief argument USED against Sena-
tor Matthias was that he was not an out
and out Taft man, and that in the nation
al convention he would in all probability
support Representative Mudd for nation
al committeeman. Senator Matthias as
sured the leaders that Frederick county
was for Taft and that he was for Taft.
1t is reported the sixth district will be
for Gen. Felix Agnus of Baltimore for
national committeeman.
With Mr.. Roulette and Senator Matthias
as the national delegates it is regarded
as settled that Senator Brown, Garrett
county, will be the elector for this DIS
tIct. Garrett would have preferred hav-
ing a national delegate but it is believed
will be satisfied with the eiector The
two alternate delegates will in all proba-
bility be chosen from Montgomery and
