Theo. A. Bell of California, who
was the permanent chairman of the
Denver convention, is making a
splendid canvass of the Pacific coast
states. He writes from Portland,
Ore:
after spending three days in this
state, my judgment Is that Bryan and
Kern will get the electoral vote. l am
reliably informed in one county which
l visited there are 300 Republicans
who are known to have declared for
Bryan. If the drift continues in Cal.

coming of Senator Gore. He will re,

has surpassed. To a flaming
hatred of injustice, to a seorn of
all that is base and mean, to a
hearty sympathy with the Cypress
ed, he unites entire disinterested-
ness, courage both moral and
physical of the very highest type,
and a kindly generosity of nature
which makes him feel that all of
his fellow-countrymen are in very
truth his friends and brothers,
that their Interests are his, and
that all his great qualities are to
be spent with lavish freedom in
their service. The honest man of
means, the honest and law-abiding
business man, can feel safe in his
hands because of the very fact
that the dishonest man of great
wealth, the man who swindles or
robs his fellows, would not SO
much as dare to defend his evil
doing in Mr.. Taft's presence.
The honest wage-worker, the hon.
est laborlng man, the honest farm
er, mechanic or small trader, or man
of small means, can feel that in a
peculiar sense Mr. Taft will be his
representative because of the very
fact that he has the same scorn
for the demagogue that he has for
the corruptionist, and that he
would front threats of personal
violence from a mob with the un-
quailing and lofty indifference
with which he would front the
bitter anger of the wealthiest and
most powerful corporations.
Broad though his sympathies are,
there is in him not the slightest
tinge of weakness. No consider
alton of personal interest, any
more than of fear for his personal
safety, could make him swerve a
hairs breadth from the curse
which he regards as right and in
the interest of the whole people.
| have naturally a peculiar in
terest in the uccess of Mr.. Taft.
and in seeing him backed by a
Majority in both houses of con-
gress which will heartily support
his policies. For the last ten
years, while [ have been governor
of New York and president | have
been thrown into the closest init
macy with him, and he and [ have
on every essential point stood In
heartlest agreement, shoulder to
shoulder. We have the same
views as to what is demanded by
the national interest and honor,
both within our own borders, and
as regards the relation of this
nation with other nations. There
is no fight for decency and fair
dealings which | have waged in
which | have not had his heartiest
and most effective sympathy and
support, and the policies for which
l stand are his policies as much
as mine.
1t is not possible in the space
of this letter to discuss all the
many and infinitely varied ques-
tons of moment of which Mr..
Taft as president would have to
deal; let him be judged by what
he has himself done, and by what
the administration, in which he
has played sc conspicuous a part
has done. But to illustrate just
what his attitude is, let me touch
on two matters now prominent in
the public mind.
Mr. Taft can be trusted to ex-
act justice from the railroads for
the very reason that he can be
trusted to do justice to the rail
roads. The railroads are the chief
interests Of interstate commerce
in the country, and they can
neither be held to a proper &C.
countability on the one hand nor
given proper protection on the
other, save by affirmative action

else OF power granted them on
behalf of the people, and which,
therefore. should be held IL a
peculiar accountability to the
people. It is ia the interest Of
the people tint they should not
be permitted To do injustice; aud
il is nc less To the interest of The
people that they should not suffer
injustice. Their prime purpose
is to carry the commodities of the
farmers and the business men;
they could not be built say for
the money contributed to them by
their shareholders; they could not
be run at all save for the money
paid out in wages to the railroad
employees, and finally they could
not be run iudiciously, or profit
ably to any one. were it not for
the employment by them of some
masterful guiding intelligence,
whether of one man or of a group
of men.
Along certain lines all of these
groups have the same interests.
1t is to the interest of shippers,
farmer, wage-worker, business man
honest shareholder, and honest
manager alike that there should
be economy, honesty, intelligence,
and fair treatment to all. To put
an effective stop to stock watering
would be a benefit to everybody
except the swindlers who profit
by stock watering; it would benefit
the honest shareholder because
honest Investments would not be
brought into competition with
mere paper, it would benefit the
wageworker because when the
money earned does not have to go
to paying interest on watered Cap
ltal, more of it is left out of which
to pay wages, it would benefit the
shipper because when only honest
stockholders have to be paid in
terest, rates need not be improp.
erly raised; it would benefit the
public because there would be
ample money with which to give
efficient service. Similarly, the
prevention of favoritism as among
shippers does no damage to any
one who is honest, and confers
great good upon the smaller, bust
ness man and the farmer, whom it
ralieves of oppression. Again,
such supervision of accounts and
management as will prevent crook
edness and oppression works good
directly or indirectly, to all honest
people. Therefore everything
that can be done along all these
lines should be done ;and no mans
legitimate interest would thereby
be hurt. But after this point has
been reached great care must be
exercised not to work injustice to
one class in the effort to show
favor to another class, and each
class naturally tends to remember
only its own needs. The railroads
cannot be built and successfully
maintained and the rates to ship
pers and the wages to employees,
from the highest to the lowest,
must be all conditioned upon this
fact.
On the other hand, in a public
service corporation we haye no
right to allow such excessive pro-
fits as will ~necessitate rates being
unduly high and wages unduly
low. Again, while in all proper
ways rates must be kept low, we
must remember that we have no
right and no justification to re-
duce them when the result is the
reduction of the wages of the
great army of railroad men. A
fair working arrangement must
be devised according to the needs
of the several cases, so that pro-
fits, wages and rates shall each
be reasonable with reference to

FRIENDS DESTROY
RASCAL s RECORD

The following from the san Fran
cisco Examiner of January 19 does
an injustice to the pluck of the late
james Campbell. Starving for days
with threats of killing at intervals
failed to make him sign the checks:
Some one, according to the investi-
cations OF Detective Sergeant Ed Glib
son, head of the Identification bureau
of the police department, has been
tampering with the records of the
bureau. Just who it is Gibson does
not know. but an investigation will
be undertaken with the object of dis
covering the guilty party
The picture of Oliver Winthrop, SEN
fenced to life imprisonment at Folsom
for torturing aged millionaire James
Campbell for his money in 1896, has
been removed from the rogues' gallery
of the police department. In addition.
all of the record Of winthrop. written
upon the books in ink, has been care
fully expunged with acids.
So far as the local records are con-
cerned there is no evidence that Win
throp was ever sentenced TO Folsom.
Winthrop at the time of his arrest
was sexton of Laurel Hill cemetery.
He boosted many influential friends
He was arrested by the late Chief Of
Police Isaiah Lees, who suspected that
Winthrop knew something of the dis
appearance of James Campbell. a
wealthy Hawaiian, who had been
spirited away. Campbell was sub
sequently found almost dead from tor
lures inflicted by winthrop, who had
tried to force him to sign checks for
nearly s25, 000.
Winthrop was found guilty and sem
fenced by Judge Wallace to life i'm
prisonment.' Recently, he has been
active in endeavors to secure a pardon,
and to commence life again with his
prison history blotted from the record.
"This erasure of the records and re-
moval of the picture of Winthrop is
remarkably bold attempt to effaee from
San Francisco files the record of this
man. said Detective Gibson. THE
picture was removed since the fire,
but by whom and just at what time
we are not able to state.
Friends of Winthrop. 1 understand,
are endeavoring to secure his pardon.
1t is possible that some of these have
been instrumental in this offense in
order that Winthrop might leave
prison without leaving behind his
photograph and record in the rogues'
gallery here il San Francisco, his old
home.

from the rogues' gallery of the Oak

II And as Jesus was going up to
Jerusalem, he took the twelve disci-
piles apart, and on the way he said
unto them. Is Behold, we go up to
Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall
be delivered unto the chief priests and
scribes; and they shall condemn( him
to death, 10 and shall deliver him
unto the Gentiles to mock, and to
scourge, and to cruelty: and the third
day he shall be raised up.
20 Then came to him the mother Of
the sons of Zebedee with her sons,
worshipping him, and asking a GER

unto her. What wouldest thou? She
saith unto him, Command that these
my two sons may sit, one on thy right

said, We know not what We ask. Are

VAST SUMS USED IN
CONSTRUCTING RAILROAD

Some idea. of the cost of constructing
a railroad can be obtained from the
figures that have been given out by
Western Pacific engineers with regard
to the number of ties used by that COM
pany in its 928 miles of track. 1t is es-
timated that no less than 2,713,920 ties
have been used and that the total cost
is 81 100000 Ties have been purchased
from Oregon as well as from various
lumber companies in different parts of
Superior California. Owing to the
great amount of railroad construction
at present, ties are in great demant.
The Santa Fe Company is now getting
its ties from the Hawaiian Islands,
