SENATOR WILLIAM JAMES BRYAN
OF FLORIDA THE VICTIM.
HAS Been ILL ONE MONTH
Had Been in Senate only Seventy
three Days, Succeeding Senator
Mallory-This is the Seventh
Member to Die.

Washington, March 22.-United
States Senator William James Bryan
of Florida died at the Providence
Hospital at $50 o'clock this morning
of typhoid fever.
1t was only seventy-three days since
he took his seat as the successor Of
the late Senator stephen II. Mallory
who died December %, and thirty
three days Of that time was spent
in his fight against disease. Several
times during Mr.. Bryan's Illness, his
friends despaired of his recovery, but
as late as last night the report was
given out that his condition had
taken a turn for the better,
Mr.. Bryan's death today, there
fore, came as a surprise and dis.
t.nct shock.
In physique Mr. Bryan was unfit
ted to withstand so protracted
fever. lie was slight of build and Of
nervous temperament. He came TO
Washington early in January from the
warm climate Of Florida and from
the day Of his arrival was far from
we'll Finally he was compelled 10
give up and was taken to Providence
Hospital. During the last few days
OF his illness he was attended )y
specialists from Johns Hopkins Un.-
yersity Hospital, Baltimore.
In Mr.. Bryan. the senate loses he
seventh member by death since the
adjournment of the Ffty-Ninth con
gress March 4, year ago. They
were the two late senators from Ala
bama. Mr.. Morgan and Mr. Pettus, Mr..
Mallory of Florida, Mr.. hatimer Of
South Carolina, Mr.. Proctor Of Yer
mont. Mr.. Whyte of Maryland and
Mr.. Bryan.
Curiously, the last two were the
Oldest and the youngest members OF
the body. Mr.. Whyte was 81 years
old, and Mr.. Bryan less than 30.
Although Mr. Bryan was in the
senate too short time to impress
his individuality on legislation or tC
take a prominent part in the consid
Grafton of matters in common, it Is
conceded that, had he lived, he would
have become a forceful part Of the
minority.
Mr Bryan was born IN Orange Fla.
oct. 10, 1876 lie attended the schools
of his state and Emory College
Georgia, graduating from the latte
institution in 1896. Three years late
he was graduated from Washington
and Lee University, and in 1899 be
gan to practice law i'm Jacksonville
Fla. Until a short time before hi
appointment to succeed Mr.. Mallor!
in the senate he had served as sole
itor Of the Duval County Crimina
Court.
He was married to Miss Janet Allel
OF Lexington, Va.

For example. will discuss the
class Of goods known as dcnims,
from which are made overalls and

Seventy per cent of these goods
that are used in this country are
made in the New England state and
about the same percentage of them
are sent to the agricultural part OF
the United States of which you
are so near the center.
You may go into a wholesale store
like Sanger Bros. of Dallas, Texas,
and you will there find these denims,
most of which are made out of
Texas or Oklahoma cotton which has
been shipped by rail to Galveston
and then by water TO Massachusetts,

! BY rail to Texas and Oklahoma and
nearby points at a cost OF about $l.2O

your people TO see that denims are
staple article. will always be used
in these agricultural states, can be
made here at home, and sold here al
home without the railroads, the com

fine homes and some fine people, but
has always needed a hotel which il
never had, but will have before the

this will be a good hotel, as F. NJ.
Campbell is building it and Mrs.
Campbell has the reputation of doing
things well and up to date. This house
will not be large but will be neat,

Campbell is an old and appreciative
| reader of the Packer, is the leading
dealer in this section in grain, feed
and fertilizers, and one of the largest
and most up to date orange growers
in Florida One of Mr.. Campbell's or
ange groves is particularly worthy of
mention. This grove dates away back
before the memorable freeze Of 1895
and the trees are nearly as large as
the average forest oak, and have a
fine crop of oranges this season, in
fact, a full crop, which is unusual this
year.

ORANGE CROP SHORT

TIE Florida special correspondent
of the New York Packer says:
The orange crop throughout the Pi-
nellas peninsula will be very short
Grapefruit will make a much better
showing as to quantity, yet that will
be somewhat short of a full crop.
However, the quality seems from pres
ent indications much above the av-
erage. In fact, some growers claim
the finest quality in the history of or
ange and grapefruit culture. There
are not as many russets as usual and
the fruit, which is in many groves
groves nearly full grown, is smooth
thin skinned and clean. None, OF
course, has commenced to ripen as
yet, but is as green as the leaves.

or special sessions where the dockets
were crowded.
Second, let the judges be more eau
tious in granting bail.
Third, let the people be more care
full in signing petitions for executive
clemency, and the governor closely
examine all sides of every application,
and unless there be some good, legal
reason, let the sentence of the court
be carried out.
If these suggestions are acted up
on it will, in my opinion, be a long
step towards suppressing mob VIC
lence and restoring proper respect
for law and the courts. l have men
toned the plan to a number of per
sons, judges included among them
and all have concurred that the plan
was a good one and worthy of being
put into operation.
