The new enterprise. (Madison, Fla.) 1901-1908, 1908-06-11

Had YOU noticed that since the
first primary the great ard
goo" Times- Union has observed
a painful silence so far as the
candidacy of the Honorable
Napoleon B. Broward for the
United States Senate is con-
|cernedf When one remem oers
how consistently that paper has
been for years fighting BroWard
one can't help but conclude that
there is something IN the report
that the East Coast Rail way and
other interests which are
popularity supposed to own aud
control the Times Union have
issued orders that Broward must
be elected to the Senate. We
know lots of people who re-
ligiously vote against candi-
dates whose cause is espoused
by the Times-Union. While
that paper is not actively sup
porting candidate Broward it
has ceased to fight him aud that,
to our way of thinking, is a
straw showing plainly the direc-
ton of the wind

Little Joe" Brown was the
David who effe-tually slew the
great Goliath Hoke Smith ever
in Georgia last week. Looks
to US ike a beautiful case of
retributive justice When Hoke
was elected governor not quite
two years ago one of his first
official acts was to FIRE out of
the Office of Railroad Commits
sioner Mr. Brown, The latter
gentleman thought he hadn't
been treated right and he sailed
in TO put Hoke out of the gov
ernor's Office at the first oppOr-
tunity which was the election of
last week. That he succeeded
is evidence to our mind that the
e iple of Georgia were with
him. And by the-way. a
precedent of many years stand
ing was smashed all to pieces.
Smith is the first governor of
Georgia for many years who
was not honored with a second
term.

METHODIST BISHOP SAYS IT
KEEPS ALIENS IN ORDER.

San Francisco, Jan. 30.-Over 500
delegates and many more visitors at
the first INSTRUMENTATION
missionary conference held on this
coast at the Calvary Presbyterian
church today.
The conference, which was presided
over by Rev. John F. Wilson, will be
in session until Sunday night, and It's
sessions are inside notab1esby the num-
Der of prominent church men who
have come long distances to speak.
Bishop John M. Walden Of New
York, secretary of the board OF bish-
ops of the Methodist church, was the
principal speaker today. That the
conditions Of city life r better for
the making Of citizens than those Of
rural life was the startling statement
made by the eastern bishop.
II would trust the interests OF this
country to the people of the cities
sooner than to any section Of our
country's population" he said. The
bishop paid a high tribute to the Ro.
man Catholic church. "Aside from any
consideration of the religious value oa
the Roman Catholic church." he said
'its priests are a mighty police powe,

London, Jan. 30.-Having failed to
reach King Edward yesterday during
the ceremonies Of the opening Of par
lament, and as the house Of commons
is efectually barred against them, the
woman suffragists Of England this
afternoon adopted a new method Of
protesting against the fact that his
majesty, in his speech from the throne,
made no mention Of their demands to
be permitted to vote.
The militant members Of the or
ganization formed themselves into
several committees which at the same
hour today visited the homes Of the
various members of the cabinet for
the purpose of asking them to use
their influence to have the question
of women's suffrage settled at this
session. AS none of the ministers
would see them the women demon,
strated by ringing door bells and de-
livering addresses from door STEPS.
The police were unprepared for this
course Of action, and noisy@sscenes
were witnessed on the fashionable
thoroughfares of London. The women
eventually were dispersed after sew
sral arrests has been made.

Presidential Candidate suggests Rem

PoIitic-Praises Roosevelt for Sim

Washington, Jan. 30.-"An election
is a public affair and participation In
politics Is a civic duty. All argu.
ments used in elections should be
used publicly and all means employed
to secure the election or to defeat
a candidate should be means which

This epitomizes the views Of Will.
lam ]. Bryan on the subject Of pub.
licity of campaign contributions, as
stated before the house committee on
election of president and vice presi-
dent. In addition to the full member.
ship there were present Perry Bel
mont and Samuel Gompers and other
labor leaders.
Mr.. Bryan declared that reforms
only come when abuses are recog.
nized. He declared that there could
be no objection to anyone making a
campaign contribution "if that contri.
button represents his patriotic inter.
est in q public cause"
Duty to Contribute.
|. He said it was the duty OF people to
contribute to the expense of dissemi'
mating campaign material by way OF
education.
Mr.. Bryan, however, voiced his op.
position to the principle of allowing
only a few men to provide campaign
funds. ut follows almost as a matter
Of necessity" he said, chat these few
men will have an influence after the
election entirely out of proportion to
their numbers or to the influence they
ought to have"
Mr.. Bryan said he was glad Presi
dent Roosevelt had taken the matter
UP. "He has spoken 50 plainly OF the
subject of publicity Of campaign con
tributions," said Mr.. Bryan, "that
am sure that the fact that I am q
democrat will not place suspicion upon
my argument, for I think / have the
same interest in this matter that the
president has expressed"
He declared he had q far greater
interest in government and public
questions than in personal concern
about the success of an individual
"and," he added, II assume tnat Presi
dent Roosevelt and those who, like
him, have spoken out in the open

New York, Jan. 3O.-The bank ex-
aminer took active charge today OF
the affairs Of the New Amsterdam
National bank and the Mechanics &
Traders bank, a state institution,
both Of which closed their doors yes
terday.
Both Of these banks were included
in the observation-disclosures chain OF
banks, and after the closing OF the
National bank OF North America q
few days ago there had been what
practically amounted to runs upon
them.
Both of them were still unable to
take up their allotment Of the. certif-
Gates which the clearing house issued
during the stringency beginning in DC.

dpon their resources began, the clear
ing house authorities declined to fur

cials Of both banks decided last night
to close their doors today.

WANTS TO VOTE AND

GERMAN GETS FIRST PAPERS
AND PERMIT TO WE'D.

After John Nave, a German ranch
hand employed on a farm east of this
city, had secured a marriage license
permitting him to wed Magdalena
Harder, also OF this city, he made ap.
p~lication for first naturalization papers
to the clerk Of the district court, re
nouncing allegiance to the emperor OF
Germany in doing SO.
Just what Nave's motive is in sig.
nifying his intention Of becoming a
citizen of the United States before
taking the marriage vow is not known,
but 1t is believed that he decided to
kill two birds with one stone by get.
ting both papers at once.
No reduction in the fees for issuing
the two papers is given by having
them made out at the same time,
neither does the clerk give trading
stamps.

Boston. Jan. 30.-Ancillary proceed
ings in connection with the applica-
ton for a receiver for the CONSOLE
dated Steamship company made at
Portland, Me-, today, g instituted
iii the federal court here today.
The action was brought by William
A.. Muller Of Arlington. Mass, whose
counsel filed three bills Of complaint
against the Consolidated and also
against two subsidiary companies. In
his bill OF complaint Mr.. Muller de-
clares that, the Eastern Steamship
company has q floating Indebtedness
OF $1,s50,oo0, and that the Metropoli.
tan company has a floating indebted.
ness Of $1,86o,000, with unpaid bills
Of 100000 and interest on outstand-
ing bonds Of $1.200,o0o. The immedt
ate cause of the petition was the fall
ure OF the Eastern Steamship com
pany to pay a demand note to MI. Null
Ter of 100000
The difficulties Of the Consolidated
Steamship company are regarded by
bankers in this city as the result OF
excessive steamship building and the
failure on the part OF the company
to provide a sinking fund for the I'M
DERIVING bonds Of the six companies
that were consolidated by Charles
w. Morse.

tue Of an act Of parliament and there.
fore 1t was powerless to grant Mrs.

WILL ERECT
GREAE STEEL PLANT
FACTORY AT HANkow WILL COST
SEVERAL MILLIONS.

New York, Jan. 3O.-An enormous
steel plant is to be erected at Han
kow, China, by a company composed
entirely of Chinese capitalists.
Primarily for the purpose of spply-
ing steel for the construction of the
various railroads in central and
northern China, but it is believed
that the plant will at some time be-
come a factor in the general steel
trade OF the far east. It is estimated
that the initial cost OF the new plant
will be about 5000, 900, and inquiries
are being made in America with a
view to placing orders here for the
greater part OF the equipment.
New steel plants n also projected
in Japan and India, the total cost Of
the three plants being in excess OF
$25, 600. 900.

Chicago. Jan. Ex-senator Francis
G. Newlands Of Nevada was the prin-
cipal speaker tonight at the banquet
of the Traffic club. held at the Audi
forum. His address was upon "The
Coordination of Land and Water
transportation" n
The speaker dwelt upon the neces-
sity for the combination of rail and
water transportation, water being
used for the carriage Of cheap and
bulky products, and rail for higher
priced articles requiring quicker de-
livery and able to pay higher charges.
He insisted upon the arranging OF
both styles of transportation in such
a way as to secure the cheapest and
quickest transportation of American
goods to all parts Of the country as
we'll as abroad.
He urged the formation Of an or
g%anization in which the chiefs Of the
engineer corps Of the army. the d.
rector Of the coast and geological sur
vey. the Panama canal service, the
forestry service aid other depart
ments should work together upon
such plans. The action OF this board,
he said, should cover all questions re-
lating to the improvement Of rivers,
construction of canals and kindred
matters. It should also, he said, In
clude corporations Of states and mu-
inequalities with a view to the appor-
tionment Of cost SO that the entire
cost would not fall upon the general
government.
The general demand, he said, for ma
tional action as to water t%ransporta-
tion will include national action re-
garding railroad transportation and
will %necessitate the creation by the
nation Of great corporations which
are to handle the commerce Of the
country.

New York, Jan. 30.-Application has
been made in Maine and in this city

A representative OF the bondholders'
protective committee said the suits
have been brought BY creditors who
are not %unfriendly to the company and
that 1t is believed q receivership will

It is also announced that the pro

which are considered to be ample. The
proceedings will come up before the
United States circuit court in! Maine
on February 4, when application for
appointment Of a receiver will be de-
cided. The lines for which 9 receiver
ship Is asked are the Consolidated
Steamship lines, a Maine corporation,
which is the holding company, and for
the Metropolitan and Eastern Steam
ship companies.
The Consolidated Steamship COM
pany, organized under the laws Of
Maine. was formed by Charles ".
Morse to carry out his plans looking
to the control Of practically all coast
steamship business. The aggregate
capitalization Of the company consists
Of $~60,00O,O0O collateral trust 4 per
cent bonds and an equal amount OF
stock, making the grand total $780,
0 1000.
Up to within a comparatively short
tire ago the ambition Of Morse APP
peared to be in a fair way toward
realization. One after another a dozen
of the big companies, which operated
steamship lines along the Atlantic
coast and from New York to Cuba and
Porto Rico, had come under his dtrec.
ton. With the financial crash Of DC.
tober, however, support was with.
drawn from his steamship enterprise
and talk Of a reorganization gained
wide circulation. AS a result Of the
troubles which came to the big hold
ing company, the January interest on

bonds was not paid.
