'Nebraskan Gives His
Views Regarding
Ownership.
New York, March 30.—At the
stance of Henry M. Whitney, of fioe
ton, tVlIllam J. Bryan recently wrote
| out and sent to Mr. Whitney a detailed
| statement of his views concerning rail
road supervision with particular ref
crence to the evils arising out of the
present antl-rallroad leglsltalon.
This statement, which was solicited
by Mr. Whitney, represents a modlflca
tlon of Mr. Bryan's original attitude
toward government ownership.
Air. Bryan says In part:
"I am In favor of both national and
state regulation of railroads, but 1 also
believe that* public ownership Is the
ultimate solution of the railroad ques
tlon. In my discussion on the subject,
I have pointed out that because of the
danger of centralisation In ownership
by the Federal government of all the
lines, I prefer a system by which tho
Federal government will be confined to
tho necessary trunk lines, the owner
ship of the rest of the lines to be left
to the states.
Will Gat Just Price.
"This, however, Is not an Immediate
question, at least I am not sure that
the people are ready to consider the
question of public ownership, and until
they are ready to consider that ques
tlon ths Interest Is centered In regula
tlon. As an advocate of regulation of
the strictest sort, I can say to you that
there Is no danger whatever that this
regulation will be carried to the point
of preventing a reasonable return on
money Invested In tho railroads of the
country.
"And I enn assure that whatever
public ownership Is adopted by the
states or by the nation, tho stockhotd
ers mny expect to receive a price at
least equal to tho value of the physical
properties of the road. The trouble Is
thnt the railroads hnve watered the
stocks and have compelled the public
to pay dividends and Interest upon
fictitious capitalisation. This Is resent
ed by the public and very properly so,
but their resentment will not be car
ried to the point of doing Injustice to
the owners of tho stocks.
No Danger To 8tot>Kholder*.
"When the value of the roads Is as
certalned, I am satisfied that public
sentiment will Insist that the returns
shall be sufficient to pay a reasonable
dividend upon the money Invested. In
caso the various states or the nation
decide to enter upon public ownership
of the mads, there wilt be no disposi
tion to confiscate tho property. I am
satisfied that In tho purchase of roads
the public would bo much more spt to
pay more than the roads orb worth,
rather thnn less. There Is, therefore,
no reason why n person having money
to Invest In railroads should not be
willing to Invest upon nti honest basis
at this time for no future legislation
would deny him a fair return.
No railroad regulation will be sus-
rained by the courts that doos Injus
tice to the owner of the railroad and
If public ownership Is decided upon the
government cannot toko the roals
without paying what the roads are
worth.
think I can speak for those who
believe In regulation, and I know thnt
there Is not and never has been danger
of Injustice to the owner of the rail
road, and If 1 can speak for those who
believe that the ultimate solution of
the railroad Is to be found In publlo
ownership, I can say that there Is no
disposition to confiscate railroad prop
erly even If the courts would per
mit It."
GREAT CONFERENCE

The Bible conference, which lias eon
Unued for ten days at the Baptist Taberna
cle, will close Hundav night, when "Gyp-
ay" Smith, the English evangelist, will

It Is not known who Mr. Lane's suc

What Do They Cure?
The above Question is often asked con
cerning Df< Pierce’s two leading medi
cines, "Golden Medical Discovery" and
•Favorite Prescription.”
The answer Is that "Golden Medical
Discovery ” Is a most potent alterative or
blood-purlflcr, and tonic or Invlgorator
and acts especially favorably in a cura
tive way upon all the mucous lining sur
faces, as of the nasal passages, throat,
bronchial tubes, stomach, bowels and

IS TO BE
A Break Down
Took the Spring Medicine lust In Time
What a wonderful change is wrought in the people who take Hood’s Sarsaparilla
as their spring medicine!
It makes the weak strong. It purifies, vitalizes and enriches the blood. It creates
a good appetite. It restores the nerves to their natural functions.
Thousands to whom it has given per
fect health tell from their own experience
it cures when all else fails. #
We give below a letter recently re
ceived from Mrs. Tyler of Burlington, Vt.
which is just in point.
“C. I. HOOD CO., Lowell, Mass.—
“Gentlemen:—I can never express too strongly
and I can never be too thankful for the good
Hood’s Sarsaparilla did me.
“Living on a large farm, the responsibilities
and cares, so much to be done and so little health to
do it with, caused almost a complete break-down.
My blood seemed thin, poor and without any sustain
ing strength. I was all worn out.
“Sleep did not seem healthful or restful, for in
the morning I felt as tired as when I went to bed at
night.
“I soon felt I was taking the right medicine. It
“It was in the spring season thnt I was led to
take Hood’s Sarsaparilla by hearing it so well recom
mended. i
gave me tho strength nnd appetite I greatly needed.
I relished my food, and it seemed to do me good.
My sleep also became more natural and healthful.
“I continued taking the Sarsaparilla with Hood's
Pills occasionally, and was soon restored to perfect
health. I have continued in this good condition
ever since, and am able to do my work with nine in
the family.” MRS. C. K. TYLER,

Newberry, S. C„ March 30.—New
berry was yesterday vlslled by tho
most destructive firs In Us history, en
tailing a loss of 3300,000. Ten blocks of
residences, covering an area of sixty
acres, were raxed by the flames.
Tho fire originated In the residence
of R. C. Williams from a defective due
at 11:30 o'clock, nnd In four hours
about seventy-live buildings were de
stroyed. The water pressure was very
low and with a stiff west wind blowing
the firemen found themselves unable to
cope with the flames.
The use of dynamite wob resorted to
and many buildings were blown up in
nn effort to stop the progress of the
flames, but little wus accomplished.
Business was entirely suspended dur
ing the fire and every citizen turned
out to render all asslztance In his pow
er. In this work they were ulded -by
the women of Newberry nnd there was
not an Idle hand.
Below Is a partial lilt of the fire
losses:
