In his behalf would mot stand examination.
That rule said Mr. Bryan may do in

the man who is still in the senate because

with more authority than the man who

VIEWS OF BAILEY ON BRYAN

! ---------
| Senator Bacon does not share the extreme
| views OF the radicals and he refused to
| allow his name to be used because there
was hound TO be = contest
Then when Senator Martin Of virginia
was. suggested as a candidate he was at
tackled as a Bailey democrat because he
was not radical The fact is that since
Mr.. Bryan came to Washington he has
been organizing everything fanatical in the
party to fight everything based on the old
and settled principles Of the party
1T was not Mr.. Bryan's business to come
to Washington and interfere with the work
committed by the people in their elections.
He had no right to stir up passion and
strife in his party.
Bryan the Logical Candidate.
yet, will say this, that IL the extreme
policies advocated by the radicals are to
dominate the democratic party and that il
is to stand for the substitution of direct
democracy for the government provided for
in the constitution, II it is to advocate the
initiative, and, referendum, right of recall
and the other ideas favored by fanaticism

These policies are his, and It is only
right to admit he has fought for them.

people If the actual form Of our govern
ment Is to be changed and direct democ-
racy Is to take the place OF our present
system Of representative government, Mr..
Bryan lis. honestly entitled to the leader

In the meantime Mr.. Bryan is saying very
little. He is consulted frequently and Is
perfectly willing to give his views when
they are asked, lie win not discuss candi-
dates; says the time is not yet ripe for it
and let's il go at that.
1t Is expected that congress will get
down TO business next week. when Minority
Leader MeHh,. has named the republican
members of the committees II is under
stood one OF the first things to be done is
the passage of the reapportlonment bill so
that the legislatures now in session may
redistrict the states. This is most impor-
tant from party standpoint, as many
states now have democratic legislatures
which may not have them next year.

Remedy Up to Congress.

1t is becoming tolerably evident
that the closing session Of this con,
gress will accomplish nothing except
a big lot of appropriations. A large
share of the presidents program will
be left on the shelves. All this is tx
cused by the fact that the session is
so short.
There is a large percentage of hum
bug in that plea. Congress could do
a great deal in three months if it
wished to. If it was run for business
instead Of ma%neuvering for political
position, manufacturing campaign
thunder and engineering private pulls,
the record would be very different.
Yet if public business must be left
undone because the second session of
each congress is too short the re.
sponsibility still rests with that body.
It is authorized by the constitution to
establish by law another date than the
first Monday in December for its
meetings. So whatever view is taken
Of the inability Of congress to do any
thing every second winter the fault
lies in its own inaction.
Valentine Democrat. (Valentine, Neb.) 1900-1930, 1911-02-23
Opportunity Of the South.

No sensible man. certainly no one
friendly to the south, wishes to see
the tariff made a sectional question.
The course Of Mr.. Clark and Mr.. I'm
derwood tends to prevent this. They
stand not only with their own party
throughout the country, but with the
strong public sentiment in support of
tariff reduction that has divided the
Republican party, and thrown the
house into the hands of the Demo
Gratis. When we say that in this they
are serving their own section, we
have in mind the important fact that
they are bringing to bear on national
affairs the intelligence and strength
of their section, and giving it the op-
p%ortunity to take a leading part in the
affairs of the nation. They are I'M
dermining the unfortunate sectional
ism that has, perhaps unavoidably,
pervaded southern politics for a long
time. They are ranging the south on
the side of progress and in the line
of the most significant movement Of
HdtioHdi opiliiou IudC HdS udulleSleu
itself in years. Nothing is more GER
tain than that our vast and intricate
and oppressive tariff system is to be
reformed, and it's reform is bound to
be the one task of craftsmanship in
the next few years. 1t can be deter
mined, and under certain conditions
it a be led by the men of the
south.-New York Times.

SOCIETY SEES PRIZE FIGHT
Anthony J. DrexeI, Jr, and Hon. Rob
ert Beresford Have Knockout
Battle in Gould Gymnasium.

New York.-The family of George
Guiding some of the most prominent
society men and women of New York
and London, saw Anthony ]. Drexel,
Jr., and Hon. Robert Beresford fight
to a knockout in the Gould's private
gymnasium at Lakewood, N. ].
Drexel, although he put up a plucky
and clever fight, was floored repeat
Gdly by the English amateur cham
pion, and was so helpless at the end
of the third round that his seconds
dragged him from the ring and ad-
mitted a knockout.
At the most exciting stages of the
encounter women in evening gowns
arose and cried applause to the fight
ers.
The battle was terrific while it last
ed. and n expert sporting mar who
was present said it was as good a "go"
as he had even seen in the prize ring.
Both Beresford and Drexel distin-
guished themselves by their thorough
sportsmanship.
When Drexel in the last round stood
with his feet wide apart and his hands
hanging useless at his side like JEFF
ries at Reno, Beresford stood back
and would have waited for him to re-
cover if Drexel's seconds had not de-
clared him defeated.
The fight was the result of the
widely published supper challenge
that Beresford made to Drexel some
weeks ago.
The English champion weighed in
at 166 pounds, and the American
champion at ISL. They were clad in
the regulation fighting garb and were
a magnificent looking pair as they
entered the ring.
Beresford had two lords for his sec
onds, Lord Camoys and Lord Alastair
Graham. Drexel's seconds were Jay
Gould and Mr.. Moffatt. Lieut.. Hubert
De Burgh of the British navy was
referee. Mrs. George Gould had Of
fered a silver cup for the winner.

Reciprocity and Public Welfare.

President Taft seeks the benefits of
reciprocity in the quickest way. In
stead Of negotiating a treaty which
could not become effective without
ratification by a two-thirds vote of the
senate, he has negotiated an agree
ment which can be enacted into law
by a majority vote of the two houses.
1t now remains for the American
people to make their attitude with re-
gard to this agreement so clear and
emphatic that congress will not dare
to put it into cold storage. 1t ought
to be adopted! The welfare of the
country demands it, and the leaders Of
the Republican party in congress
ought to be wise enough to see that
a%ntagonism will be resented.-Roch-
ester Post-Express.
