THE MORNING OKEGONIAN, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 9, 190C. T MUCH AHEAD OF THE Bryan Says Roosevelt Makes Threat of Government Ownership. MORE RADICAL THAN HE IS Admits President Has Done Much Good In Pushing Democratic Re forms, Though Handicapped by Party Leaders. FORT SCOTT, Kan.. Oct. 8. W. J. Bryan made his first Kansas speech of this campaign here today. He said. In part: I am glad to come to Kansas, and I am glad to find a spirit here that wo have not always found in politics. In fact, unless I am very much mistaken, we are approaching a time when we can con sider public measures with less of parti sanship than we have in former years. 1 can remember when I first entered poli ties that there was such a strong feeling in regard to the parties that it was al most impossible for a man belonging to any party to find anything good in an other party. This state has done much to break down the old feeling. Roosevelt Has Done Good. President Roosevelt has done a good deal to convince the public that there is yomethlng good in the Democratic plat forms. He had the courage to take up some of the reforms the Democrats ad--vocated before his party had advocated them. The President has done much good. 1 don't know what he might have done had he had an environment favorable to reform. He has done remarkable things for a man who had to fight his leaders all the way through. I don't know what he might nave accomplished had he not been so handlcaped. On the subject, of Government owner ship of the railroads, Mr. Bryan said that several years ago the Democrats and Populists were ridiculed for suggesting such a thing, and that he had been de nounced as dangerous because he had mentioned it as a' means of relief from the oppression of the railroads. Uses Ownership as Club. "But now we find President Roosevelt daring to hold as a club over the railroads that idea in terms more radical than I suggested." In his last two messages to Congress. Mr. Bryan said, the President had said with emphasis that, if the railroads did not get out of politics and let the people run the Government, vjovernment owner ship of railroads would be the Inevitable end. He had suggested Government own ership only about six months ahead of Roosevelt, and he was awfully glad to be ahead of the President in that line of reform. Bryan Talks on Kansas Issues. .PITTSBURG, Kan.. Oct. 8.-W. J. Bryan delivered two speeches here .today and was greeted by large crowds. He devoted most of his afternoon speech to the char acter of the candidates on the state Dem ocratic ticket in Kansas, although he discussed the tariff at length. LA FOIXETTE READS RECORDS Senators Who Voted Down Hate Bill Amendments Are Shown Up. KINGMAN. Kan., Oct. 6. Senator La Follette. of Wisconsin, lectured here to night on "Representative Government." Much of his address was devoted to the new railroad rate law. The greatest value of the law. he said, was the fact that it was possible to get a railroad bill through Congress. The Senator continued: "I offered nine amendments to the rate bill. Klght of them had been recommend ed in seven consecutive annual reports by the Interstate Commerce Commission. Everyone of them was supported by ar guments and facts that were unanswered and unanswerable. No man in the Sen ate answered them; and yet as fast as it could be done the Senators voted them down. I believe that the only remedy for such conditions Is to lay the records of these men before their constituents. "I will not single out any Senator. shall read the record, and you shall see. If any Senator Is attacked by reading the record I do not attack him. He attacks himself.' FLAGS WAVE HUGHES GREETING Novelty Introduced at Political Meet ing at Mount Vernon. MOUNT VERNON. N. Y., Oct. 8. One thousand American flags were distributed to those who entered the City Opera House tonight, and when Charles K Hughes, the Republican Gubernatorial candidate, entered, two-thirds of those present waved their flags, while others for whom there were no flags cheered. Mr. Hughes, after discussing the claim that Hearst's papers had attacked cor porations in general and had now receded in a measure and admitted that corpora tions were needful and necessary and not bad things until they did something wrong, wanted to know if Hearst's news paper corporation paid proper taxes for the rights It enjoys. He declared that it did not, and went Into what he claimed was the history of the corporation to ehow that it did not. "What Hughes claimed to -be true in re gard to Hearst'B corporation was also true, he said, of many more, and he pledged himself, if elected, to do all that In his power lay to remedy such corpo rate abuses. That he and the party he represented were sincere, he said, had been proven by their handling of the in surance matters. It had been his good fortune to have ome part in that, and he and his party stood upon their records, and Hughes said that if elected Governor he would pledge himself io see that the good work wa not abandoned.

S.S.S.CHHES ECZEMA The real cause for Eczema is the presence of humors and sour acids in the blood. These impurities get into the circulation because of imperfect action of tBose members of the system, whose duty it is to collect and carry oS the refuse and waste of the body. As this effete matter lies in the system it ferments and generates acrid humors which are absorbed into the blood, overcharging this vital fluid with acid. In its effort to keep the sys tem healthy the blood throws off the humors through the pores and glands of the skin, causing this tormenting skin disease. The escape of acid3 and humors through the pores and glands irritates and burns the skin, producing pustules filled with a clear, eticky fluid, which dries in crusts and patches causing the most intense itcliing, and often pain. . The trouble is in the blood, and S. S. S. is the remedy for Eczema, because it is a real blood purifier. It goes down into the circulation, removes all acids and humors and makes the blood rich, pure and healthy. When S. S. S. has done this the symptom pass away, the blood is cooled and the disease cured permanently. Nothing acts so promptly or pleasantly in all skin diseases as S. S. S., and it is at the same time a fine tonic to the entire system. Book on Skin Diseases and medical advice free. ' SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, CA. V.
