DEMOCRATS|N
AFTER THE DEFEAT
OF BRYAN IN 1903
Norman Mack Says That Was
Why Guffey's Rejected Cash
Was Finally Accepted.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 6.-Normsn r.
Mack. Chairman Of the Democratic Na.
tlonal Committee in 1903. to-day told the
Senate Committee investigating cam
paisn funds OF that year and also those
OF 1904. that the only contribution he
could remember having rejected was one
b. Col. J. NJ. Guffey OF Pittsburgh. Pa.
Dir. Mack added that after Mr.. Bryan
had been defeated, the campaign com
mittee was several thousand dollars In
debt and Col. ouney's contribution was
accepted.
The omcial report OF expenditures
which the committee filed at Albany In
conformity with the New York State
law, Mr.. Mack said. was absolutely cor
rect and covered every dollar con-
tributed.
Chairman ciapp asked who we're the
largest contributors to the 1908 cam
paign.
MuRPHY's CHECK FOR $4,000
THE lARoEer.
The largest was Mr.. Murphy" re-
piled Mr.. Mack. He contributed
$4,000" The books before the sena to
Committee show that such a sum was
contributed In the name OF Tammany
Hall.
Senator Clark Of Montana, contri-
buted $4,000 to the Chicago head
quarters and I think about $4,000 to
the New York headquarters" Ar. Mack
added. Several people offered funds.
but they were refused, and they have
rather passed out OF my mind"

ator Jones.

Mr.. Mack. II was q, Denver at the
convention and on the way homo
stopped At Lincoln to talk with Mr..
Bryan. lie then and later said that he
did not want contributions from cor
porations. It was his fight and his
campaign and felt should keep faith
with him and not accept any offer
from a corporation or other source that
was not desirable. made up my mind
that would not do anything that would

making no money; that they were
out of debt and had an ulterior
motive. He had a copy of the
sliding scale contracts made by
the Great Western Sugar COM
pany, the largest in the country,
which he read.
G. M. Corlett said it will be a
sad day for the valley if it be
given out that we cannot raise
sugar beets here. He wants to
see the factory success as we'll as
other enterprises. He favored the
Great Western Sugar schedule of
prices and moved that 1T is the
sense of those present that we all
boost for 10000 acreage of beets
the coming season on the basis of
prices adopted by the Great West
ern Sugar company"
NJ. Brady seconded the motion
with short and pointed speech.
Clark Hurd surprised the meet
ing by saying some farmers made
money last year on beets and be-
lieved every man could do as well
in ordinary years with the exper-
ience of last season.
W. A. Bronaugh said, we can
not afford to see this beet enter
prise fail. We must get together
and make it success. The side
products of the factory are worth
considering
j. III. Jones wants to see the
factory success and said he fav-
ored fiat rate of So per ton rather
than the sliding scale.
The question on the adoption of
Mr.. Corlett's motion was called
and on rising vote all but three
voted for it, The three were in
favor of staying by the factory,
but favored a fiat rate instead of
the sliding scale
Mr.. Galligan advised the beet
growers to plant such acreage only
as they can cultivate properly.

ing it will not do to say we cannot
raise beets; even the grain crop

the ranchmen were planning for a
large acreage another season.
DIR. Chapman said he made some
mistakes in beet growing last sea-
son but it was not the fault of the
beets nor of the company. He re-
viewed the experiences of the
ranchmen of the valley. 1t was
first nothing but grain; Potato
Wiley came and made a success of
potatoes; Sylvesters and others
made success with peas and lamb
feeding. A year ago there was a
loss on lambs and then followed a
loss on potatoes. The factory is
all right and will help the valley
by diversity of crops. etc. The
greater the diversity of crops the
better. Too many seeded too
large an acreage; smaller individ-
ual acreage and better tillage is
advisable. 1911 was bad crop
year generally and beet growers
suffered with the rest. He did not
think the ranchers should be dis.
couraged by the small tonnage last
season. The yield under ordinary
seasons can be relied on for ton
mage. We should not be discour.
aged but stay with the factory an
other year.
Mr.. Morris said he wants to see
the factory go ahead, but there are
number of things to be consid.
cred. Men cannot haul beets 4 or
8 miles at 50 per ton. The sliding
scale seems to be the fairest meth
cd. He believes in having more
definite contracts and thinks more
beets per acre can be raised and al
less labor cost than last year

Ford contracts which have beer

BURY ASSASS|NCARDNAS
Killing Of Premier CanaIejas
Great Blow to the Mon
archists in Spain.

MADRID, Spain, November 16.-The
burial of the assassin Manuel Cardinas,
who committed suicide after he had shot
Premier Canalejas. took place secretly
at daybreak this morning.
1t is the general view that the assas-
sination Of Premier Canalejas leaves the
monarchists in Spain without a great par
liamentary leader, and, in a a situation
of great difficulty, deprives King Alfonso
of the counsel of strong man on whom
he relied fully.
The Spanish court is described in the
press today as depressed and apprehen-
sive Of coming difficulties, owing to the
absence of an authoritative political
leader.
King Alfonso himself apears to feel
the loss Of Canalejas the most, partie.
