to secure greater effectiveness in the
prosecution Of criminal moncpolies.
We did not add single line to the in
terstate commerce law, giving the federal
government supervision over the Issues
OF stocks and bonds by interstate car
riers.
We did not enact a currency measure
that would mitigate the evils Of finan.
cial panic such as has recently distracted
the country under Republican admins
tration.
We did not limit the opportunities for
abusing the writ of injunction.
We did not establish postal savings
banks.
We did not establish a bureau of mines
and mining.
We did not admit into the Union the ter
ritories of New Mexico and Arizona an
separate states.
As to Corporations.
On the subject Of corporations Mr..
Bell said:
"Among the great evils that afi1ict
the country at the present time is
the abuse CT corporate power. AT
first the advancing aggressions OF
the corporations are not discernible to
the common eye, for every move is
carefully covered up until sufficient pc.
litical strength is attained to defy the
protests Of the people.
'Whenever the mutterings of the
people become too threatening the CRY
of confiscation goes up, and appeals
are frantically made to the sacred
rights of property. The cry of con-
fiscation is the historic defense of
usurpation. Let the people take warn.
ing. Whenever the wrongs Of today
become the vested rights of tomorrow
the nation is in deadly peril.
1.-The Democratic party is not the
enemy Of property, but, to the con.
trary, 1t has always stood and will
continue to stand firmly against every
species of aggression that would de.
stroy or weaken the right of any man
to enjoy the rewards to which his pa.
thence. his skill, his industry and his
economic station entitle him. Against
the evils Of special privilege we urge
the benefits Of equal opportunity, in
order that there may be more land.
owners, more homes and more happi.
ness among the masses.
Prison For Directors.
"Our party is not opposed to produc-
ton on large scale, but it is unal.
terably opposed to monopoly In pro.
duction. 1t is easier to prevent mo-
nopoly than it is to control 1t after
being established. The withdrawal of
special privileges will take away the
meat upon which the trusts are fed.
II this be followed by criminal pros
ecution and an Imprisonment Of the
directors and officers Of the guilty cor.
porations, monopoly will be shorn Of
many Of its terrors.'
After Mr.. Bell had concluded, Judge
Parker arose to offer his much talked
Of resolution in memory Of Grover
Cleveland. He cried, "Mr. Chairman"
'The chairman recognizes Mr.. Dunn
Of Nebraska" said Mr.. Bell, and IL
was seen that Ignatius ]. Dunn Of Ne.
braska. who was to nominate Bryan,
was standing in front of the chairman.

MESA
cAULIFLoWER EXHIBITION.
Buck Produce Co. Places Three Pound
 Heads on Market Yesterday.

The Buck Produce company which has q twelve acre garden in the east part of the city yesterday had on ex- hibition several heads of cauliflOwer some of them weighing three pounds. Along side these were placed some of the California variety for the purpose of showing the difference. The Mesa product was bright and crisp looking while the California variety was yell low. The display was made in the Shautuck x Nimmo windows who will in all probability handle the Buck Pro- duce company's output as it is this concern who has made the gardens a success by furnishing the capital to tide the enterprise through.
 Cauliflower is a hardy plant and can be easily grown as cabbage while it invariably nets more per pound in this or any other market If five rows can be grown to perfection as those shown yesterday why is 1t not a possibility to grow five thousand rows with a greater per cent of profit. Winter gar dening is coming to be a reality in Arizona and it will not be a great dis tance in the future when a climate which can mature vegetables at any month in the year will be in demand.

few fans who had interests in neither team, but who came merely to see a good game and they were not disap- pointed. It was the first meeting of the two teams this year and it was a fight from the start. The score stood nothing to nothing until the first half of the 9th inning when a first base mans error let in one run for Mesa It should be stated however, that early in the game the Normals first baseman got crippled and went out of the game The man who took his place was not accustomed to that position and nat urally did not play it as well as he might have, had he been more used to it. Fo- two innings more the game was at standstill. neither side being able to get 9 run. Finally, in the sec ond half of the Sth, Johnnie Mullen got a run. making the first score for the Normal In the 9th the Normal made one more run winning the game by score of to 1.
 For the Normal Millett pitched the first six innings and the latter part of the game was replaced by Aver. For the High school Cuber did the arm work for similar period and then turned over the box to Williams.
 Sharkey and Higley umpired the game.

Santa Fe Had Representative Here Yesterday Who Was Favorably
 Impressed.

Colonizing Agent Seagraves of the Santa Fe railroad arrived in Mesa Fri day where he was shown over few of the many resources of this section by Dr. Chandler after which he gave it out as his opinion that this was one of the coming countries.
 Mir. Seagraves has been at the head of the Santa Fe's colonizing depart ment for a number of years and is re- sponsible for the success that that part of the railroads work has been car ried on. He has been instrumental in filling the Panhandle country and the PecOs valley in New Mexico. If he can be induced to report hOmeseekers rates into this section as a profitable move there is bound to be an influx of peo- pie to this section second only to the Pecos valley colonization.
