FUNERAL OF DR.. VI. c. FR|LEY
Brief Biography Of Man of God Who
Has Gone to His Eternal
Reward.

AS was briefly mentioned in these
columns yesterday afternoon, DR.. w.
C. Friley, of Franklin, died on Tues
day night at 1917 o'clock in Hubbard
City at the Wood sanitarium, where
he had been for some days under
treatment
The news of DR.. Friley's death
brought profound sorrow to many
hearts in Bryan. This was his former
home during his pastorate of the First
Baptist church, and he was dearly be.
loved, not only among the members of
his former congregation, but by all
the Christian people of Bryan and the
citizenship generally. He was a faith
full, earnest man of God. and today
he wears the victor's crown as a re-
ward for life devoted to the Mas
ter's cause, and of service to his fell
bowman.
He had been in declining health for
some time, but no one realized the
seriousness OF his condition. He re-
manned steadfast in his pastoral
duties, and so devoted was he to the
cause OF missions he refused to take
a rest or leave Franklin until after
taking his missionary collection three
Sundays ago, which amounted to
about $3.50 There was an undying
love in his heart for the heather and
there was nowhere to be found in all
the ministry a man more jealous in
the great work of providing a way by
which the heather in every land may
have the gospel presented to them
He died at the Wood sanitarium =.
Hubbard City, Texas, where every
want was looked after by DR.. and Mrs
w. A. Wood. Mrs. Wood was Miss
Nina Lynn Jameson, of Bryan, and is
well remembered by many friends
here. They have a son here, stu
dent at Allen Academy. DR.. Friley was
under treatment in the sanitarium for
two weeks, during which time every
thing that medical skill and tender
nursing could suggest was done, but
nothing availed against the ravages
of the grim reaper death, and ne
passed peacefully away at the hour
stated surrounded by loved ones and
friends from Franklin and Bryan.

cations which do not represent the
people, by means which are private
and selfish and worthy of all con-
demnation. We mean specifically the
conduct of our affairs and the shaping
of our legislation in the interest of
special bodies of capital and those
who organize their use. We mean the
alliance for this purpose of political
machines with the captains OF organ
lied industry. We mean the exploita-
ton of the people by legal and polit-
| ical means. We have seen our gov
ernments under these influences cease
to be representative governments,
cease to be governments representa-,

ments representative of the special in
terests, controlled by machines, which
in their turn are not controlled by
the people.
1--WE are not attacking men, we are
attacking system. The men are,
most of them, honest. The great ma
jority of them believe that in serving
their own they are serving the inter.
ests of Inc country at large. Their
conception of prosperity is that it will
best proceed and gather under their
management They are willing, indeed
they are anxious, that the people
should share in it; but it must orig
mate with them and be under their
experienced control. They stand at
the wrong point of view; they seek
their objects, not by public argument,
but by private management and ar
rangement; by influence, not by open
political process.
They are serving, served and as
sisted, not only by the political organi-
cations which put men into office and
into our legislatures, but also by our
present methods OF legislation. Legis-
lation, as We nowadays conduct it, is
not conducted in the open. 1t is not
threshed out in open debate upon the
floors of our assemblies. 1t is, on the
contrary, framed, digested and con-
cluded in committee rooms. 1t is in
committee rooms that legislation not
desired by the interests dies. 1t is

indianapolis, Ind, April 13.-Urging
the democratic party to state its creed
in the concrete and define clearly the
especial forms of privilege it de-
clares against in general campaign
'for the rights of the people" Gov
ernor Woodrow Wilson, of New Jer-
sey, in ar address to the National
League Of Democratic Clubs here to-
day set forth the objects of the party
as ne believes they exist and should
be stated. Governor Wilson said in
part
eve are fond of speaking of our
selves as the party of Jefferson and
Jackson, not because we are a party
of old men, reminiscent of things
gone by and in love with what has
been, but because we are a party
touched with the ideals which made
these great men great, whose names
we recall with such reverence and
enthusiasm, because the breath of our
party's life is its utter faith in the
principles of democracy. 1t is its de-
votion to the rights of the people OF
whatever class or degree as against
all claims of privilege, as against all
selfish vested interests which seek
control instead of freely serving the
life and development of the nation.
1T is so far from being a party Of
mere Renaissance, party which
tries to draw the country back to pol
icies which belong to another time,
to the circumstances of another age,
that it is, above all others, a young
mans party, because party of move
ment, of readjustment, party that
presses toward the future with I'M
shaken faith, with unwavering conf
dence and ever renewed hopes and
aspirations for the principles of free
dom, which are none other than the
principles of opportunity. the princi-
pies of men not made, but on the
make, struggling from achievement to

their powers.

safe behind their bulwarks.
"Of course the chief triumph Of
committee work, of covert phrase and
unexplained classification, is the tar.
if law Ever since the passage of the
outrageous Payne-Aldrich tariff law
our people have been discovering the
concealed meanings and purposes
which lay hidden in it. They are dis.
covering item by item how deeply and
deliberately they were deceived and
cheated This did not happen by &C.

elaborated, secret design. Questions
put upon the floor in the house and
senate were not frankly or truly an
swerei and an elaborate piece of leg
islation was foisted ON the country
which could ont possibly have passed
if it had been comprehended by the
whole country.
But there are other ambushes
Take, for example, the entirely legiti-
mate extensions made of the idea OF
private property for the benefit of
modern corporations and trusts. A
modern joint stock corporation can not
in any proper sense be said to base
its rights and powers upon the princi-
pies of private property. Its powers
are wholly derived from legislation.
1t possesses them for the convenience
of business at the sufferance of the
public. Its stock is widely owned,

titudes of men into its shifting part

communities. 1t is a segment of the

vate property is safeguarded and man.

afford any covert whatever to those
who are managing it. Its manage
ment is of public and general concern,

business.
Hence our objects as a party. /
take these objects to be to open all
the processes of politics-open them
wide to public view; to make them
accessible to every force that moves,
every opinion that prevails in the
thought of the people; to give society
command of its own economic life
again, not by revolutionary measures,
but by steady application of the
principle that the people have a ,'.ght
to look into such matters and to con-
troll them; to safeguard our resources
and the lives of our workmen and
women and children (our chief nat
ural resources) against the selfshness
of private use and profit; to cut all
privileges and patronage and private
advantages and secret use of our
