Some Big Questions.

During the next six years. con-
tinued Mr.. Scott" we are likely to
have some great public questions to
solve. In the west, an agitation has al
ready begun against the new tariff
law. l would not be surprised to see
that question reopen during the next
four years. Further changes in the
Interstate Commerce laws, and in
antitrust legislation will soon be up;
the currency question will come up
next fall. These are all strictly BUSH
ness questions of prime Importance.
As business man,as commissioner of
internal revenue, and as a senator, l
have had something to do with many
Of these questions, and it is my ambi-
ton to take some part in solving them
for the benefit of the whole country,
and of my own people in particular.
My own business experience, as well
as my experience in the senate, | may
say, with all due modesty, leads me
to believe, that in consideration of
these matters, I will have some influ-
ence, and will be able to exert 1t to
advantage"
What about state Affairs asked
the reporter.
Well said Mr. Scott. 81 am
strongly in favor of same legislation
on the natural gas question, but would
not like to see an extra session, unless
ii is reasonably certain that some eff
fective action will be taken. Governor
Glasscock doubtless has studied the
situation carefully, and will act with
prudence" ali

more than taxed the capacity of the

ment.
The characters were all well sus-
tanned, some of them exceptionally
so, while the musical numbers were
very well sung. The work of the

was especially phasing because of
their youth. The whole provoked
much merryment. Miss Fairy Ryneal
was the capable accompanist. The
offering netted goodly sum for the
