ROAST FOR COX.

Senator John [. Cox's protest on
behalf of his boiling brother SEN
ators, filed one day last week, call
ed forth by reason of the strong
terms in which it was written, some
vigorous protests including the
one from Senator d. B. Thomas,
which we give below.
The protest is as follows: "Mr.
Speaker-On Monday, March l.,
1909, [ arose in this Senate to a
question of personal privilege, and
protested against member of this
Senate delivering a lecture to the
majority of this body. At that
time / spoke perhaps somewhat
hastily and did not make my mean
ing as clear as | intended.
81 desire to ask the indulgence
of this body for presenting the fol-
lowing matter in writing, and de-
sire to state that [ seldom present
in writing my views on different
matters arising here, and plead in
extenuation of now presenting this
matter in this manner the fact that
[ desire not to be misunderstood
in what | do say; that L do not de-
sire to be understood as speaking
in the heat of debate or in anger;
that / do not desire to be under
stood as making a loud noise nor
to 'fume feelingly;' that do not
desire to be misquoted; but to be
understood as presenting this mat
ter as my cool and deliberate con-
illusions, arrived at after calm and
careful deliberation.
Con more than one occasion the
Senator from Sullivan has elected
to question the Democracy Of the
members of this Senate who do not
see fit to agree with his views on
different matters in issue.
II desire to say that it does not
lie in the mouth of the Senator
from Sullivan to question the De-
mocracy of any man; that he is not
in position to sit as judge on
Notifications as d Democrat;
that he is not sufficiently versed in
those matters to render an intelli-
gent opinion of what it takes to
constitute Democrat.
Having no moral courage of
his own, [ am not surprised that
he can not understand why any
man should stand up for those
principles which he thinks 10 be
right and just. Having no,regard
for the rights of the people, | am
not surprised that he should act
in utter disregard of their welfare.
"Being utterly craven in spirit,
as shown by his actions and afili-
ations in the recent past, | am not
surprised that he should think that
his insinuations and malicious in
nuendoes would not be resented;
but I desire to further say to the
Senator from Sullivan now, that
his insinuations are entirely gra-

KETCHEL HEAVIER THAN
MOST PEOPLE BELIEVE

Stanley Ketchel is a much larger
man that the fight fans all over the
country believe. Monday afternoon he
, stepped on perfectly balanced scale
and his weight was just ia pounds.
This means that the lion OF Michigan
will enter the ring weighing about
us, or twenty pounds more than Bob
titzsimmons on that memorable after
noon more than twelve years hgo
when he removed the heavyweight
championship crswn from the head Of
Jim Corbett.
According To all reports Ketchel has
worked hard and faithfully this time.
though he has such a habit of slipping
away for gay midnight larlxs that no.
body can depend upon him. one thing
is certain, Ketchel Is 100 per cent. a
better man than he was when he faced
Papke three months aso. He is bigger,
faster and better trained.
Since it became known that Ketchel
is so big and powerful the fans win
not bet their money on Johnson 20
knock him out in fifteen rounds. Al
the wagering is on eighteen rounds,
with the general result at 10 to A. and

Johnson has worked little during
the last few days and is practically N
shape. All should go wen with him
provided that racing auto of his does
not run away and cause him serious
injury. He is killing the auto game

It's a curious fact, but Ketchel, Il

of the fight. His share will be $4,000.
but he will lose a wager of that

CHARLES M. HAYES skErcHgp AT ISIS DESK

Montreal. oct. S.-The life ambi-
ton of Charles NJ. Hayes is about to
be realized in a sea -to-sea railroad
line through Canada. with the com
peton of the Grand Trunk Pacific,
the former American manager, who is
now president of the company will
have the first trans continental rail-
road through Canada.
As far back as 1896 when Mr.. Hayes
startled the railroad companies, he
dreamed OF an extension that would
give the Grand Trunk .sea-to-sea
route and place it i'm world atmOs-
phere of traffic.
The five years Mr.. Hayes was with
the line at that time. from 1896 to
1901, he was general manager and not
in a position to put through plans.
Then he left the road eight years ago
to become president of the Southern
Pacific when Il. n. Hartman secured
control from Huntington. Hayes stay
ed with the Southern Pacific only six
months, resigning suddenly and going
back to the Grand Trunk as vice pres
idcnt and general manager. In his
new position he determined To get the
Grand Trunk through to the Pacific
coast, and, working TO that end with
the English and Canadian owners of
the system, coupled with sincere
campaign with the Canadian parlia-
ment he succeeded in having his plans
adopted and financed.
II was no small matter and Mr..
Hayes did not by any means put the
project through single handed-to
complete a system of 5000 miles, Sc
cure s1OOOOO,OO0 private capital and
have government supply an equal
amount, yet all obstacles were over

completion.
