MESSAGE PLEASES BRYAN.
Says Democrats Uttered the Same
Warnings a Decade Ago.

WILMINGTON, Del, February 1.-The
special message which President Roose-
welt sent to Congress yesterday was read
with paticular interest by William Jen-
nings Bryan upon his arrival here last
night.
Seated in the office of Street and Sewer
Commissioner John G.. Gray, whose guest
he is while here, Mr.. Bryan read the
message aloud. Frequently he stopped to
compare passages therein with time
honored democratic doctrines. The phrase
predatory wealth was considered by
him as an acceptation by President
Roosevelt of the words often used by
Mr.. Bryan in previous campaigns.
Mr. Bryan expressed himself being
much pleased with the message. He was
Of the opinion that the effect would be
beneficial to the democrats in the ma
tional campaign this year as following
out in many respects the principles OF
the party.
When he finished reading the MESA &c
he dictated the following statement:
1T is a grave message and needed at
this time. All friends of reform have
reason to rejoice that the President has
used his high position to call attention to
the wrongs that need to be remeded. He
has discovered the running sore In our
national life. He has pointed out the cor
rupting influences that flow from preda-

riches to the few, who by controlling
great industries of the nation have levied
tribute upon the whole country.
His warnings are entirely III harmony
with the warnings which democrats have
been uttering for more than Il decade.

scented by the President.

Tariff Revision.

established policy. Our opponents would
not undertake to present to the voters
of the country the issue of free trade.
A protective tariff is essential to the
interests of our wage earners. in that it
makes possible the payment of wages on
the scale to which we are accustomed
in this country and thus maintains our
American standards of living. Hence the
difference in the cost of production here
and abroad is the fundamental considera-
ton.
But / do not believe in making this
policy a cover for eXorbitant rates OF

And in order to effect whatever read
justment may be necessary to make the
tariff schedules consistent with the prln-
ciples underlying the protective policy L

tanned without delay and that Congress
may dispose of the matter in the fairest

NEW YORK, February Gov. Charles
+. Hughes. in a speech he made last night
at the Republican Club, enunciated for
tbe first time some Of the views he holds
on national issues and laid down the
platform upon which his friends Will urge
his nomination for the presidency.
A crowd that filled the parlor of the
cllb and overlooked into the hall and up
the stairs heard the governors speech
which he read from a platform that had
been erected between the two windows
opposite the entrance to the room. Many
times the applause was SO generous that
the governor had to stop. Explanations

wera heard frequently.
Having in mind the utterances from
Washington yesterday, 1T was apparent
that those who thronged the clubhouse
last night to hear the governor speech
were awaiting the announcement OF MS
views on certain questions with the keen
ess anticipation. By far the greatest out
burst of applause came when the gov
ernor, after reviewing some OF the evlis
of the present time. said, with voice
that rang throughout the crowded room
and with emphatic gesture:

speech left no doubt as to its object. He
said that it had become his duty to speak

Some Rents Abnormal.
In many instances the rents are alb
normal and do not afford a fair basis
for estimating values. And in other in
stances the owners claim that their prop
erty is worth more than was paid for the
land already appropriated to government
use. because the erection of public build
ings thereon has still further enhanced it's
value.
Square 30 lies directly south of square
25I. government triangle. upon which
stands the truck G. building of the Dis
trict fire department. intervening This
square contains S1.IS} square feet. as
sessed at $1G2,2o3 for the ground, and
S1o2, 100 for the improvements. The great
er portion of this square is occupied by
Power Company. which declines to set a
value upon it's property.
The assessed value of the ground in the
square is about SIS a foot. and of both
ground and improvements about $50 "A

the real value. the property in square
30 is worth about 1906. 1880. or S375

An officer of the Potomac Electric Power
Company states that the original invest
ment of the company in this square rep
resents upward of 100000.
OF the two remaining owners, one re-
CARDS his holding of 1926 feet as worth
10000 added for the improvements. which
are assessed at $1,000. If that be two
thirds of their actual value they are
worth $3.50. The other owner. whose
property consists of q vacant lot con-
tanning 12.0S3 square feet, assessed at
land. and states that he has refused an
offer of 81 a foot for it,
Square 80 lies directly east of square

If there were no other conditions to at
