NINA, Nevada, Oct. lo.-Continu-
ing his campaign OF education, Sen
ator Newlands spoke here this even
ing He was greeted by large
crowd which paid particular attention
to his remarks 1t is noticeable that
Senator Ncwlands presses some hard,
cold facts. He does not seek ap-
piause nor wild acclaim Hi, adj
dress are to the point and cducati-
Onai in nature. he Is frequently ap-
plaudcd. hut there j. no appeal to the
passions OF the audiences. Senator
Newlands appears satisfied to drive
home the truths which set the people
thinking along progressive lines. He
made an appeal this evening for the
election of Key Pittman a Senator
because he stated thar it wa, the du-
ty of the Democrats and progressives
to elect man who would be in sym
pathy with Mr. Wilson Then he
told how both Mr.. Pittman and Mr..

Democratic principles and especially
favorable 70 those great reforms

lows
when the Democratic party comes
into power said Senator Ncwlands,
1t will take up seriously the prob
lem OF Legislative efficiency, With
the growth OF our country, the work
OF Senators and Representatives has
greatly increased, both in and ont OF
Congress, and the sessions have un-
avoidably heightened until they are
now almost continuous. The trou-
bic j. that legislator, attempt TO han-
die too many details and have not yet
learned to utilize the brains of spec
ialists and experts and the methods
oi efficiency which have made such
marked advance in business and cor
porate activities.
AS Il means OF securing greater et-
ticieucv the organization OF budS-
Congress will be effected. These
committees will act i'll cooperation
with the executive department IL
matters relating to efficiency and
economy and give their recommen-
dations regarding the apportlonment
of revenue among the various dc
nartmcnts. services. and works OF the
government.
Much time and labor can be say
ed and greater efficiency secured by
the organization OF administrative
boards or commissions Ot experts III
aid OF Congress. An impression
seems to prevail among many that
the organization OF such boards
means 4 delegation or even aDdlsa-
ton of legislative power. lhe In
tcrstate Commerce Commission Is
a powerful argument to the contrary
The power to tlx rates Is douDtieSs
a legislative power; but Congress- III
stead OF undertaking the direct eS-
crcisc OF that power. wisely organ
lied an administrative commission
and fixed the rules under winch the
mower should be exercised. l ms
policy might we'll be cXtended to the
organization OF the administrative
boards, for the organization OF other
administrative boards. for the con-
t,nuous and systematic considerau9n
of such questions as the tarih, the
trnsts. the Improvement OF rivers
,hc construction Of public buildings
and other undertakings,
Taking up the subject OF Dig cor
porations. Senator Newlands spoke
as follows:
..The Democratic party has wisely
demanded. in its platform, the oeo-
laration by law OF the conditions u"-
der which corporations snail De per
,n;tted TO engage i'll interstate trade
;nrludine the prohibition OF holding
comnanies. Of inter-locking boards OF
directors, Of stock watering. and the
control by the corporation OF so
large a share OF any industry as to
menace competitive conditions.
"To this. ! think. might well be
added the creation OF an interstate
trade commission which could be
charged with the enforcement OF
these conditions I am urging sucn

tion of Senator Cummins and will
have the cooperation oi Senator
