RUNS MERELY To
AID PARTY; WINS
New Lieutenant Governor of
Illinois, in Atlanta, Tells of
"StiCkIer's" Reward.

Rarrett O'Hara, of Chicago, lieuten-
or+ governor elect of Illinois, visitor
in Atlanta, today declared that he did
MT attribute the success of his cam
oaign to any tremendous powers of his
,rrn but to the fact that he always
had stuck to the Democratic ship Of
state even when it seemed in imminent
danger of laundering.
In Illinois. up to the present time,
nominations by the Democratic party
FOR state office held but an empty honor
The patriot who ran on the ticket could
expect nothing more cheerful than to
read of his Republican opponent sweep
ing into office by landslide vote.
Naturally, there never was any great
hurry or strenuous fight for these nom
nations. When our ticket for this year
was nominated we had little realiza-
ton that there was a possibility Of our
winning l always had been a staunch
nartv man and when my friends named
me for lieutenant governor 1 accepted
with the same gleefulness that a small
boy consents to take a dose of medicine
But the Bull Moose party came up
and the Republicans were hopelessly
split. Then we got busy, made an ag~
gressive campaign and were carried
into office by a majority of about 1OO,-
600. 1t shows that it pays to be a party
man."
Mr.. O'Hara is veteran newspaper
man of Chicago. He was sporting ed
tor Of Hearsts Chicago American and
later Sunday editor of The Examiner
After the campaign he determined to
take a vacation and after spending
few days at French Lick came to At
Ianta, never before having visited the
South.
And I can just feel Atlanta grow
ing" said he.
He will be in the city several days.

TRAFFIC DIRECTOR
EXPLAINS ADVANCE
Special to The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
NEW YORK, July Ell. L. Spence,
director of traffic of the Union Pacific
system, thus explained the new sched-
ule effective eastbound August IS and
westbound September 21;
"The advance is about 20 per cent,
although it was stated in a California
dispatch to be from 40 to 100 per cent.
On westbound commodity rates, such as
to Salt Lake, Spokane, etc, the new
tariffs reduce the rates to the interior,
but not to the Pacific coast cities.
There are some advances to tho coast,
bringing the two tariffs more nearly
in conformity. Advances to the coast
have been confined to commodities
which do not move in large volume by
sea, while on those commodities which
do move extensively by water the old
rates have been continued.
"1t is not true to say that this ac-
tion will destroy the benefit Of water
competition to the Pacific coast ship
pers. The ships are there as in the
past and while the action of the rail
carriers will lose some business so far
as the railroads are concerned, it does
not prevent this traffic from moving by
water as it has done before. The ad-
vances made are nothing like as ex-
tensive as intimated by this San Fran
cisco dispatch. AS stated, the advances
In class rates average about 20 per
cent, but on commodity rates, which
move the great bulk Of the traffic. the
average is far less and most of the
important commodity rates under which
the movement is more extensive are not
changed at all. ~

WASHINGTON, July 27.-Chairman
Underwood of the ways and means
committee said today he could not tell
what action the house or his committee
would take on the excise bill as passed
by the senate last night.
The senate attached to the bill
amendments continuing the tariff board
and repeating the Canadian reciprocity
measure.
Before calling up the bill for action
bv the house Mr. Underwood will ascer-
tain the sentiment Of the Democrats on
both amendments.
If necessary q caucus for this purpose
will be called. Should Mr., Underwood
find that majority of the Democrats
will accept the amendments, he will
pass the bill without sending it to con-
ference.
The greatest hostility manifested by
Democrats is to the amendment contin-
uing the tariff board. They are op-
posed to the board because they claim
