This was the statement authorized yesterday morning by William Jen- nings Bryan to a JournaiMiner rep resentative in commenting on Attor- ney General Wickersham's proposed plan for remedying difficulties which now exist between railroads and ship pers regarding rate matters and also for caring for other business evils that are occupying national attention.
 Caustic on Aldrich.
 MT. Bryan was questioned regard ing the so-styled "edueative finan- cial'' tour of Senator Aldrich' of Rhode Island, chairman of the none tary commission, who is at present touring the west, gathering ideas from prominent business and financial men in this section of the country.
 ''I would never be so unkind as to accuse MT. Aldrich of being on an educational tour. He might devote himself to spreading darkness but never to the spreading of light" was MT. Bryan's caustic monument.
 Relative to the Ballinger-Pinehot- Glavis muss which is rapidly waxing warmer, MT. Bryan said, referred to Ballinger's reply to his critics:
 "I do not know anything of the details of the controversy in regard to his opposition to perpetual fran chises.
 FTake the water power franchises as an illustration. No one can tell what they will be worth 100 years from now nor even 50 years hence. And any attempt to give or even sell a franchise on the water power that is generated from the mountain streams would be one-sided. If the gov ernment sold a franchise for more than it is worth, the purchaser could give it up at any time it was found unprofitable but if a corporation bought a perpetual franchise for one per cent of its real value, the govern ment could not terminate the contract.
 "As I understand it, MT. Pinchot insists that water, power franchises should be limited to term of years and I believe he is unquestionably right''
 Next National Issues.
 "Mr. Bryan, what do you consider will likely be the big issues at the next presidential campaign7"
 "At present, the tariff question is more discussed than any national question but no one can say in ad- vance what issue may appear to di- vide attention with the tariff.
 "The president has endorsed the central bank idea and the ship sub sidy and take it for granted from Wickersham's Kansas City speech, he favors national corporations.
 'EIf these measures are pushed they may arouse so much opposition as to become important factors in the next campaign"
 Asked for his opinion regarding the results of the New York municipal election, MT. Bryan replied: ''I know Judge GaynOr personally and believe he will make an excellent mayor. should be disappointed if he does not make a splendid record in office. He is constitutionally opposed to graft
