"The great questions to share the at tention of voters in the coming cam paign, I believe," said Mr. Bryan, "are the trusts, the tariff .and the railroad questions.

' LAND GRANT BLIGHT (Continued From First Pajre.) which it has received. It has already re alized approximately '4,500.000, and now as serts absolute ownership to property the assessed valuation of which is $18,000,000. " Grant Thwarts Own Purpose. "At the expiration of 40- years after the enactment of the grant, 2,000.000 acres of the lands granted are vested in a single proprietor, with no pub lic ' obligation and virtually controlling the commercial destiny of a large portion of Oregon. This Is the very evil which the provisos of tho grant were destined to avert. Yet that condition now exists, with the assertion of a legal right to make it permanent. "'It is confidently believed that sub stantial remedies exist in favor of the Government. It Is the purpose df the Department of Justice to enforce these remedies. It is respectfully Suggested, however, that discussion of their form be deferred for presentation before the court to which the cause shall hereafter be addressed." SENATE DEBATES LAND GRANT Fulton Leads In Movement to Have Suit Begun. WASHINGTON. Feb. 18.-The fact that the Department of Justice has made all preparations to begin a suit to enforce the terms of Government land grants In the State of Oregon waa brought out in the Senate today, when Fulfon, of the committee on judiciary, reported a resolu tion authorizing the department, to bring such suits and asked for its immediate adoption. Hcyburn asserts that Hundreds of millions would be found to be involved If the proceeding were made general. The resolution was generally discussed by Senators. the only objection urged against It being based upon the idea that the Attorney-General waa now empow ered by law to do all that is sought by the resolution. During the discussion Fulton announced that the ' department was ready to pro ceed and merely wanted the authority of Congress to meet any possible question that may be raised against the legality of, the proceedings. No Doubt of Violation. The resolution also applies to the exant made for the construction of -a telegraph line from Portland to Ontario' and Mc Mlnnvllle,. Or., under the act of May 4, 1S70. The resolution authorizes the Attorney-General to ascertain and enforce all the rights in favor of the United States, if it appears that the lands are forfeited to the United States by the vio lation of the -conditions of these acts. Fulton -said there was no question that the roada had violated the terms of thes grants, as the violation had been admit ted before the-subcommittee. . . Tillman explained that he had intro duced the original resolution In view of what he had learned while on a visit to the Pacific Coast. He was satisfied rail roads are now holding land from settle ment .worth millions of dollars. The propriety and necessity of passing such a resolution was questioned by For age. Fulton did not personally believe the resolution was necessary, but the Attorney-General wanted it and he thought It should be passed. ' . Congress May Forfeit Grants. ' Nelson said the Supreme Court had de cided that the forfeiture of such grants could be enforced either in the courts or by Congress. "This resolution," he said, "is merely an expression that Congress prefers to have the court take action. Congress could only declare absolute forfeiture, but the court of equity could say to the railroads that If they proceed to comply with the terms of the grant their grants would not be forfeited." . ji' Heyburn said ((he same conditions re ferred to in the resolution exist; in all land-grant states, although only Oregon Is .referred to in the resolution. For 40 years the railroads- he said, had refused to comply with the terms of these grants. The settler could not proceed against the railroads to force them to comply with the terms of their grants to the land, be cause the proceeding could only be brought by the Government, which gave the grant. "This question," he added, "Involves millions of acres of land, worth hundreds of millions of dollars." In reply to a question by Dixon," Hey burn said ho thought the same limitation existed In the land grant of the Northern Pacific Railroad. Dixon, Fulton and Nel son did not agree with him In that state men. ' , The resolution, drawn by the Depart ment of Justice tp satisfy any doubt that might be raised as to its authority to proceed against the railroads, was offered as a substitute for the resolution recently offered by Senator Tillman. The resolu tion was placed on the calendar under objection by Senator Galllnger, who thought It could not be disposed of to da?. The resolution directs the Attorney General to prosecute suits to enforce the rights of the United States pertaining to land grants made to aid the construction of railroads and telegraph lines by the Southern Pacific Railroad Company In California and Oregon, involved In the act of July 25, 1S66, and to the grant made to aid In constructing a military wagon road from Coos Bay to Roseburg, Or., under the act of March 3, 1S59. Fulton is confident 'that he will secure the early adoption of his resolution. The resolution as introduced is satisfactory to the Department of Justice, although con tention was made in the general debate by Foraker, Nelson and Heyburn. whd say that suit may be Instituted by the Department of Justice without the direc tion of Congress. Senator Fulton believes the objections will' be withdrawn and the resolution adopted. Woman Revokes Saloon License. SEATTLE. Feb. 18. (Special.)

" .When you buy I mm you don't have to use a fancy coffee pot or percolator, we have taken out the poison bearing, bitter tasting element from the best coffee we can buy.
