This contest was one of the most in

tention. 1t was suggested by Chairman
Harry Howe, of the Athletic Committee.
The object in the contest was to drive
in and out through row of barrels
without the car touching barrel.
Kiln's crack baseball nine played an

of the most successful affairs of the
kind given here. In addition to the
large local lattendance, many out-of-town

On Monday Mr.. Howard Egleston
representing the Hackedo 3 Contracting
Company, of Indianapolis, Ind, offered
the Board of Supervisors OF Hancock
county a most attractive proposition &c
build a concrete bridge across the Bay
The substance of the offer was thai
the Board grant him the exclusive
right to operate toll bridge across the
Bay for a period of twenty-five years,
and at the expiration of that time the
bridge to belong to Hancock county
and Harrison jointly without cost to
either.
Mr.. Egleston offered to begin the
building of the bridge within twelve
months and comlpete it within twelve
months after beginning; and if he failed
to do so his right would be revoked
and he would completely lose his
franchise.
The county has absolutely nothing to
lose and all to gain by the acceptance
of such proposition. The people OF
Hancock county and OF Supervisors
District No. 5, in particular. have been
anxiously waiting the happy day when
they may cross the Bay on bridge
with their auto and reach the outside
world without travelling the unnecessary
distance OF 80 miles or more.
This is the first bright opportunity
the county has had and the officials and
the entire people ought to make a
supreme effort to give Mr.. Egleston all
the concessions tney can without bur-
dens upon or his rights or franchise SO
he may gointo the financial world with
out impediments and produce the money
to accomplish this gigantic undertaking !.
Mr.. .Egleston is man Of high character,
comes we'll recommended and is in ear
nest.
Now is the time for all well-meaning,
progressive citizens to get together
and go before the Board of Supervisors
at their next meeting and assist Mr..
Egleston and his associates in every
way possible to construct the bridge
across the Bay, dream we have had
for years we may make realty II we
half try.

It is true that Mr.. Hudson voted for the present pen
sion law and helped put upon the statute books But
he voted against another pension law because he sad
was too liberal.
If Mr. Knott did anything for the Veterans, ex-
cep to hire good clerk and have the clerk mail out the
pension warrants the old warriors have heard
of it.
The legislature made the law. Whatever of credit is
due for this law is due the members Of the legislature not
the Comptroller because he had nothing in the world to
do with it.

and voted for every law in favor of the Veterans and
have thought that any law too liberal for them
In the session of 1909 | Speaker of the House

THEIR RECORDS.
Mr. Knott told the voters that he had been deputy
clerk of the Circuit Court for years and afterwards clerk
of the Circuit Court for years he told how he had been
Assistant State Auditor and afterwards State Auditor he
stated he had been State Treasurer and then Comptroller

he has held and had drawn the thousands and thou
sands of dollars from the public treasury he has

would be willing to give others a chance.

during which time I have drawn cent from any
public treasury, except the per diem and mileage of
member of the legislature.
I declined to accept appointment as Judge of the
Criminal Court Of Record and afterwards Circuit
Judge, because was content to in the legislature

In justice to Mr. Hudson should say that he has
never held any office to my knowledge except member
of the legislature and attorney for the Railroad Commits
sion AS attorney for the Railroad Commission, Mr..
Hudson received salary of 100000 per year.
AS TO THE FUTURE
Mr. Hudson has not indicated what he expects to do
in the future.
Mr. Knott has stated that elected governor he did
not intend to run for any other office.
When I announced my candidacy announced that
if elected governor would not be candidate for any
office while serving as governor.
This indicates that I have no desire to build up
political machine to trade off the states appointments
in my interest Il shall fill all appointments BY select
ing the men best fitted and who able to do the most
good for the State.
- PROMISES AND TRADES.
Mr.. Knott has issued printed card in which he
states that he has made promises of appointments if
elected governor for the purpose of aiding his candidacy
I have made promises to anyone except those
made directly to the people in the press and IN public
speeches. No one has asked me make any promise

of it. and what they did say they said very general

He will oppose the proposition to

that the extension Of railroad con-

He will contend that regulating the
railroads simply from the standpoint
Of rates and discrimination Is not the
dominant consideration which ought to
prevail, but the question Of providing
adequate facilities for the present and

Reforms to Be Suggested to Nswiands
Committee BY Railroad Managers
I and Owners - Second Commission
Advocated, to Take Up Detail. Of
Violations and Correction. T

Washington, Nov. 23.-An outline OF
railroads will ask in the present rules
OF government regulation when the
Newlands committee begins it's ses-
sions Thursday is given herewith.
These reforms will be suggested to
the Newlands committee by A. p.
Thorn, general counsel Of the Southern
railroad, who will be the first speaker
before the committee. Mr.. Thorn, who
VIII represent approximately SO per
| cent of the railroads of the country.
will suggest the following changes to
the committee:
First, he will advocate a system Of
federal regulation Of securities-na-
tional control of stocks and bonds. He
will say that SO per cent of the rail-
roads Of the United States have come
to an agreement that that is the proper
the public.
Wants U. 8. Stock Regulation.
He will argue that the railroads can
get nowhere if they have to so to
forty nine regulating bodies before
they can issue their securities-forty-
eight states and the national govern
ment. The roads can not in prac-
teal way. he will assert, accomplish
the necessary financing If they are to
get the authority OF both the states
and the national government.
Second, he will tell the committee
that the railroads believe that the best
and safest solution Of the question OF
regulation of the issuance Of the
securities of the railroads is to be
found thru the medium Of federal in
corporation, which should be made
compulsory and not optional. He will
advocate that no carrier shall engage
in interstate commerce unless it be-
comes incorporated under a law Of
congress.
Urge Division Of Powers.
Third he will assert that there
should be a division of powers, as now
esta blished by law. between the inter-
state commerce commission. which
shall be the supreme body in charge Of
all OF the powers Of regulation on ap-
peal as to some and directly a to
others, and another commission, pos
sibiy to be known as the federal rail-
read commission. whose members shall
he presidential appointees. who shall
be paid enough to attract to the pub
lie service the best talent and the best
character in this country.
