Low rey, manager of the Federation of Labor Fourth of July celebration, in Aleridian, that he will accept Con gressman John Sharp Williams’ chal lenge for a joint debate on that occa sion.

Seventy persons have been killed and over 200 injured, more or less, in wrecks on tiie Southern Pacific railroad during the last five months. Since January 1, twenty-five weeks have occurred in California on the Southern Pacific, and it is asserted that the majority of these were caused cither by blunders of train crews, many of them overworked, or by faults in the equipment of the rolling stock or track. It is asserted that of the total number of wrecks only three were from unavoidable ac cidents and resulted in but little dam age and no loss of life. All this time Harriman has given his almost undi vided attention to the stock market, lillman said that “Harriman ought to be in hell!” The friends of those who have been murdered on his roads will probably agree with Tillman.—T.
