One OF the liveliest rate wars tina.
has ever taken place here Is interest
ing New Workers at the present mo-
ment. The warfare is being waged by
the rival steamship companies opera
ting between this port and Bermuda.
As the contest has increased in bitter
ness the transportation rates have
gone tumbling. Successive cuts have
reduced the cost OF a trip to the land

stop In one of the leading hotels and
all expenses for SIS. As we~ll-informed
transportation men compute that AT
this figure the company will lose an
amount at least equal TO this on every
passenger carried. the struggle is not
likely TO continue very long. There
have been rumors OF an impending
rate war among the transatlantic
lines. but this seems unlikely. for
while competition Is keen among the
various lines. they have learned by
bitter experience that wars Of rates
are ruinously expensive and Injurious

He has had to meet false and malicious misrepresentation on the part of papers subsidized by the predatory interests. He has seen the party platform attacked sometimes openly and sometimes by innuendo. by those pretend ing to support the ticket, and he has seen the platform repudiat- ed immediately after the election by papers who professed to SUD- port it during the campaign.
 He had to oppose distinguished members of his own party when those members attempted to in- sert weasel words in the platform and make it ambiguous and un- certain. He has had to contend
 with timid politicians who pro

The protectionist democrats, instead of defending the principle of protection, are now spending their time in charging Mir. Bryan with an attempt at dictation. While every so-called democratic paper which is opposed to MT. MT. Bryan as a candidate is at liberty to discus public questions. it seems that Mir. Bryan in the eyes of theprotectionst democrats estopped from saying anything. Some of the papers invite him to Nebraska and keep silent. That the readers of the Commoner may know what to expect, a word in reply to these criticisms.
 MT. Bryan has never attempted to dicate to the democratic party and has no desire to do so. but as a member of the democratic party MT. Bryan has exercised the right to express an opinion upon public questions and upon public men, and this right he expects to continue to exercise. He will not be deterred from discharging what he regards as a sacred duty by abuse, but he is accustomed to abuse. His body, politically speaking, is scared all over by the knives that have been weild- ed by the representatives of plutocracy inside of the demo- cratic party and outside. He has made three campaigns and in every one of them he has had to meet treachery within the party

GOVERNOR CAN'T REMOVE
THIS JUSTICE OF PEACE
Coffee County Justice Cannot
Be Touched According to
Attorney General

justice of the peace may sell all the
liquor he wants TO, and maybe be put
In Jail for it. and the grand jury may
ask the governor to dismiss him; but the
governor can't do it. according to Attor-
ney General Hewlette Hall.
The public remembers the case of c.
j. Meddowes. justice of the peace in
Coffee county. The Journal published a
story about it a few days ago. Mr..
Meddowes had been sent to jail after hav-
ing been convicted of selling liquor, and
the grand jury asked the governor to
fire him out of office. With the petition
came a clipping from one of the local
papers down there. publishing a letter
from Mr.. Meddowes in jail, in which
said epistle he seemed to take his con-
fnement very blithely and even reported
having married couple in the midst of
his rather unusual surroundings.
But he was destined not to lose his
job.
Governor Brown passed the buck up
stairs to Attorney General Hail.
And on Saturday the attorney general $
official reply came down.
In his opinion, the attorney general
sets forth that under the law justice
of the peace may be dismissed by the
governor upon conviction, of malpractice
i'm office; but holds that Mr., Meddowes
has not. been convicted of any malprac-
tice IN Office He further sets forth that a
Justice of the peace may be fired by the
chief executive upon conviction for an
infamous crime; and holds that Mr..
Meddowes has been convicted of selling
liquor but not of an infamous crime.
Wherefore, says the attorney general.
the governor has no authority to dis
miss MIR. Meddowes under the circum-
stances
