BRYAN OPPOSITIONS PASEg
ACUTE STAGE
The opposition to William J. Bryan
oo account of his declaration in favor
of government ownership of railroads
teeim to have passed the acute stage.
His explanations of his position on this
question have been such as to quiet
those who feared that he is drifting to
ward socialism. Id speeches and letters
he has explained that he wonld greatly
prefer private ownership of railroads to
public ownership. He says, and every
body wbo h?s bad experience knows
that he speaks the truth, that the
great railroad corporations are the
most corrupting influence in American
political and commercial life. He says
they must be placed where they can no
longer hirm the great masses of the
people. Mr. Bryan says if this could
be done through government regulation
that it would be far better than that it
were done through1 government opera
tion, He has chosen government own
ership as the choice of two evils, and
he suggest* it as an ultimate remedy.
He admits that it will not be tried until
after there shall hare been a trial at
government supervision. This is the
plain meaning of the New York speech,
and it appers quite satisfactory when
ylewed in the light of subsequent
speeches.
It is pointed out that Mr. Bryan's
poaition isnot so drastic as wasjthatofthe
democratic platform in New York state
four years ago, written by David B.
Hill, which demanded the government
ownership of coal mines. That was
offered as an alternative for relief from
the conditions brought about by the
strike when laboring men rebelled from
the obpression of the coal trust. At
thtt time ;the democrats came within
3, MO of carrying New York state. The
public ownership plank was approved
by [conservative men everywhere.
Philip B. Stewart, nominated by the
republicans of Colorado for governor,
has withdrawn from the ticket. It is
understood that the withdrawal is due
to the fact that William Gabbert, chief
justice of the supreme court, wss nomi
nated for re-election. Gabbert was elec
ted as a democrat and populist six years
ago. His decisions acid his apparent
opposition to union labor have caused
the democrats to repudiate him. In
fact he has been so odious to a large
portion of the state's population that i'
is difficult to get anyone to run on the
same ticket with him.
?????? X
Down in Arizona where both the
democrata and the republicans have de
clared against joint statehood with New
Mexico they have organized a joint
statehood party. It haa nominated a
candidate for delegate to congress and
ia placing county tickets in the field,
It indorses President Roosevelt, who
has written many letters to Arizona
friends urging them to support joint
statehood.
"Fairbankers" is what the Fairbanks
Times calls the denizens of that town.
That will do, perhaps, but be careful
not to put the "o" salable in the middle
of the word.
The Fifth avenue hotel is the leading
hostelry in the north. It is steam heat
ed, has elegantly furnished rooms
? single, en suite and with baths? large
