Tall Lying About Rail Bill.
There has been more lying about
the railroad bill than about anything
else ever knew before in my life,"
said Senator Cummins to the repub-
lican conference. "All we need to do,is
to tell the truth about this law, and to
give the people to understand ex-
actly what it is, and what it does,
and they will have nothing but APP
prevail for the work done. l am not
going to apologize at any time. or in
any way, for this law and l do not
want any friends to do so. 1t is,
law framed not for the benefit of
capital but in order to give the
American people the transportation
which they must have. The increase
in rates under this law has not been
made for the purpose of compensat-
ing capital by paying interest or
dividends, but has been made neccs-
g wy h fH1 TO- r..
Of the laboring men, and the Increase
In the cost of material"
Senator Cummins, by Invitation,
made a spirited and snappy address
j. to the conference. outlining the true
facts regarding the railroad law and
pointed out plainly that when it is
really understood those who framed
1t will have the approval of the
American people. He pointed out
also that there is no possible excuse
Tor making partisan issue out of it
since democrats had a very large
hand in framing the law, and amona
their staunchest aids in the COM
mlttee were three Of the most promi-
nent democrats of the senate. Among
those present were Congressman
Ramseyer, Greene, Sweet, Hull and
Dowen and Mr.. Kopp, candidate in
the hrst district. "A number of other
spirited talks were given to the con-
ference, and general exchange of
opinion as to the trend of the cam
patgn.
The conference regarding the
Seventh district meeting held here
was very much like those held at
Fort Dodge, and Coupcil Bluffs and
all reports were very satisfactory in
deed. Next week four conferences
Will be held in the eastern part of the
state
