sofa club, where Governor Eberhart
and President Louis w. Hill Of the
Great Northern railroad were guests

The advance notices of the speeches
OF the two noted speakers, omitted one
fact. Mr.. Pinchot's speech was ad-
vertised as fighting talk 1t was
not more of fighting talk than was
that of Former Secretary Garfield.
Both speakers handled their subjects
without gloves. Mr.. Garfield's talk
was a philosophic exposition of the
meaning and purpose of the conserva.
ton movement. Mr.. Pinchot's was an
epigramatics attack on the present
order of politics. He dwelt on this
feature at length and in closing his
address, said that to drive out the
Interests" was the one object to be
attained.
The Payne-Aldrich tariff bill was
bitterly attacked by the former for.
ester, and the wooden schedule was es.
pecially singled out as an example Of
the betrayal of public trust.
1t was alleged by both speakers that
corporate influence was too powerful
at Washington and that Legislators did
their behests rather than perform their
duties as legislators.

president. but indirect references were
made which might naturally be taken
