The meeting was enthusiastic and har monious. When Mr. Hearst appeared on the platform to make hla speech of accept ance he was cheered for more than half an hour. Time and again he tried to stem the applause by waving his hand, but the demonstration would not down. Promises Square Deal. In part Mr. Hearst said: "1 em honored to have been nomi nated by this convention' I am proud to run on this platform. I am devoted heart and eoul to the principles expressed In every line of it. I have said that my program Is not Socialism, or radical Ism, or extreme of any kind. It It simply Americanism. , "We promise an honest admlnlatra tton. We promise an Impartial en foroement of the laws. We promise to sweep from the public pay rolls the servants of private Interest*. We promise nominations that are not bossed and elections that are not bought. We promise consideration and representation for the producing musses. "We promise to abolish class dis tinction and class legislation, and to restore government Tor the greatest good of the greatest number. We ask in return the honorable support of all honest men. If that Is 'deal,' It Is a square deal.” The convention expressed Its thanks for the Interest of New York Demo crats for the suggestion to fuse and dgbf the "bosses" at ths Buffalo con 1 vcntlon, but announced the Intention of the league to make an Independent campaign. Does Not Propose to Force His Ideas Upon Any Person. Louisville, Ky., Sept. 13.—In a care fully prepared written statement, which he read last night at the Armory, Wil liam Jennings Bryan explained hie views on government control of the railroads. . "In my speech at the New York re ception," said he. “I made some re marks concerning the government own ership of railways and I thought I had expressed myself so clearly that my po sition could not be misconstrued even by those who desired to misconstrue It. The New York speech was pre pared In advance. It was not only written, but It was carefully revised. It stated exactly what I wanted to state, and I have nothing to withdraw or modify In the statement therein made. People Should Benefit. "After quoting from the Democratic platform of 1900, that 'a private mo nopoly Is Indefensible and Intolerable,' and after laying It down as a principle that public ownership should begin where competition ends and that the people should hove the benefit of any monopoly that might be found neces sary, I stated that I had reached the conclusion 'that railroads partake so much of the nature of a monopoly that they must ultimately become public property and be managed by public of ficials, In the Interest of the whole community.' I added: "'I do not know that the country le ready for this legislation. I do not L PASSED BY COUNCIL ON W READING Savannah City Fathers En gage’in Lively Word Clash at Meeting.

But I believe that an Increasing number of members of all parties see In public ownership a sure remedy for discrimination between persons and places and for the extor tionate rates for the carrying of freight and passengers.' Outlined s System. "I then proceeded to outline a system of public ownership, whereby the ad vantages of public ownership might be secured to the people without the dan gers of centralization. This system contemplates Federal ownership of the trunk lines only and the ownership of local lines by the several states. I fur- ther expressed It os my opinion that the railroads themselves were respon sible for the growth of the sentiment In favor of public ownership, and said that, whllo I believed that the rate bill recently enacted should be given a fair trial, we might expect to see the railroads still more active In politics, unless our experience with them differ ed from the experience we had had with franchise-holding corporations. "I have tried to make Jt clear that expressed my own opinion, and I have never sought to compel the acceptance of my opinion by any one else. Re serving the right to do my own think Ing. I respect the right of every one else to do his thinking. Let ths Voters Say. "As to platforms, I have contended always that they should bs made by the voters. I have In my speeches and through my paper Insisted that the platform should be the expression of the wishes of the voters of the party, and not be the arbitrary production of one man or a few leaders. "If the Democrats believe that the next platform should contain a plank in favor of government ownership, then that plank ought to be Included. If the Democrats think It ought not to contain such a plank, then such a plank ought not to be Included. It rests with the party to make the platform and Individuals can only advise. Spoke Own Opinion. "I have spoken for myself, and for myself only, and I did not know how the suggestion would be received, am now prepared to confess to you that It has been received more favor, ably than I expected. There Is this, however, that I do expect, namely, that those Democrats who oppose govern ment ownership will accompany their declaration against It with the asser tion that they will faVor government ownership whenever they are convinc ed that the country must choose be tween government ownership of the railroads and railroad ownership of the government, , "I hsve been brought to regard pub lic ownership as the ultimate remedy by railroad history, which Is an famtl- far to you a® to me. Among the rea- sons that have led me to believe that we must. In the end, look to govern ment ownership for relief, I shall men tion two or three.

Savannah, Qa„ Sept. 13.—In stormy session of the city council, held here last night, an ordinance was pass ed on Its first reading requiring the street car company to separate the races on their cars, and to carry out the letter of the state law. This ordi nance passed by a unanimous vote. The meeting was perfectly harmoni ous through this bit of legislation, but when the question of Indorsing the ap pointment of J. J. Gartty as plumbing Inspector was brought up sensation after sensation followed In quick or der. Alderman Murray Stewart sprang to his feet when a motion was made that the appointment of the mayor be approved, and stated that the appoint ment of Oarlty was a disgrace to the mayor and to every man who voted for It. He charged that Oarlty was a thief and had been caught defrauding negroes In the employ of his depart ment, while he was superintendent of the scavenger department, out of thetr hard-earned wages. Alderman Stewart was particularly bitter against Gartty. Garity was up to two weeks ago su perintendent of the scavenger depart- CABANISS IS OUT, HALL IS SECRETARY!

Roads Want to Control. ••The railroads have Insisted upon controlling legislature*; they have In sisted upon naming executives; they have Insisted upon controlling the nom inations and appointment of Judges. They have endeavored to put their representatives on tax boards thst they might escape Just taxation; they have watered their stock, raised their rates and enjoined the states whenever they have atempttd to regulate rates; they New Silverware The new table silver, in particularly attractive pat terns, is in.

M aier & Berkele time and again by the Interstate com merce commission. have obstructed legislation when hos tile to them and advanced, by secret means, legislation favorable to them. Let me give you an Illustration: "The Interstate commerce law was enacted nineteen years ago. After about nine years this was practically nullified by the supreme court, and for ten years the railroad Influence has been sufficient In the senate and house to prevent an amendment asked for Influence of Railroads. "The railroad Influence has been strong enough to keep the Republican party from adopting any platform de claration In favor of rate legislation. When the president, following the Democratic platform, Insisted upon reg ulation, he was met with the opposition of the railroads and every point gained In favor of the people was gained after a strenuous fight. The bill was Im proved by an amendment, proposed by Senator Stone, of Missouri, restoring the criminal penalty which had been taken out of the tnteraate commerce law by the Elkins law. “This same amendment had been presented In substance. In the house by Congressman James of Kentucky, and had been defeated by Republican votes. The bill was further Improved by an amendment proposed by Senator Cul berson of Texas, forbidding the use of passes, and It would have been still further Improved by the amendment proposed by Senator Bailey, of Texas, limiting the court review, but the rail road Influence was strong enough to defeat this amendment. Plan H* Proposed. 'X think I may also reasonably ex. pect that Democrats, who oppose gov emment ownership will say that If government ownership must come, they prefer a system whereby the state may be "reserved and the centralising Influence be reduced to a minimum, Such a plan as I have proposed, and have proposed It because I want the people to consldor It and not be driven to the federal ownership of all rail roads as the only alternative to prl rate ownership of trunk lines and state ownership of local lines, not only pre serves the state and even strengthens Its position, but tt permits the gradual adoption of government ownership as the people of different sections are ready to adopt It. "I have been slow In reaching this position and I can therefore be patient with those who now stand where stood for years, urging strict regula tton and hoping that that would be found feasible. I still advocate strict regulation and shall rejoice If experi ence proves that that regulation can be made effective. "I will go farther than that and say that I believe we con have more ef ficient regulation under a Democratic administration with a Democratic sen ate and house than we are likely to have under a Bepuhllcan administra tion with a Republican senate and house, and yet l would not be honest WILL INVITE BRYAN TO VISIT COLUMBUS Special to The Georgina.

Roberts. 1 with you If I did not frankly admit that obsi lervatlon has convinced me that no such efficient regulation Is possible and that government ownership can be undertaken on the plan outlined with ess danger'to the country than is tn- olved in private ownership as we have had tt or as we ore likely to have It. "I have no Idea that the railroads are going to permit regulation without a struggle and I fear that their Influence will be strong enough to very much de lay. If It does not entirely defeat reme dial legislation. You. In this state, know something of the railroad In poli tics. When I visited this state and poke for Mr. Goebel I heard him -harge upon every platform that the railroads were spending large sums In opposition to his election, and I have always believed that the railroad Influ ence was largely responsible for the assassination of that brave defender of the rights of the people. People Are Plundered. 'Another reason which has led me to favor government ownership Is the fact that the pdbple are annually plundered of an enormous sum by extortionate rates; that places are discriminated against and Individuals driven out of business by favoritism shown by the railroads. You say that all these things can be corrected without Inter ference with private ownership. "I shall be glad If experience proves that they can be, but I no longer hope for It. President Roosevelt,- although expressing himself against government ownership, has announced that only successful regulation can prevent gov ernment ownership. Is there any Dem ocrat who Is not willing to go as far as President Roosevelt and admit the ne cessity of government ownership In rase the people are convinced of the failure of regulation?
