BRYAN REFUSES TO H RECANT HIS CRITICISM LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 10. Re opening his vendetta witli Democratic House Leader Oscnr Underwood, William J. Bryan today in his pnpor, tho Commoner refuses to recant his recenUvriticisms of tho congressman o,h ii "iiroteutionisl" until he has i'ur flier inforinntion. Bryan reiers to Underwood's de- congress regarding tariff legislation wcro correot. ' HaBklna for Health. ' aceordanee with the rulings of the inter-state conunerci commission, will deprive coast cities, suen us Joruuna of the monopoly so long held hy them. .Distributing cen ters will gravitate hTthc direction of least resistance, which means, as in the past, the resistance is determined bv the freight rate. The pending suits of Medford before the state rail road commission are in intent the equalization of carload and less than carload rates on the basis of equity to the carrier as between the cost of handling less carload and carload shipments and of communities in the establishment of a one scale of class rates Cor the entire state; in other words, tl-e abolition of what uninformed agitators and privilege seekers commonly pall distributive rates. The constitutional guarantee is individual equality, and as a community is no more than collective individuality pre ference is prohibited in the granting of one schedule of class rates to one community and another schedule to another, as obtains in the State of Oregon. Por nearlr a vear the Oregon state railroad commis sion has had the 'Medford cases before it, without acting upon them, or granting relief prayed for. There is no reason whv it should not render a square deal decision, establishing uniform distance class rates, which are just to all, and do not permit the upbuilding of one city at the expense of the rest of the state. It is.because no relief has been granted and such a iniaimi lms nnt liopii roiuWed. that the Medford traffic .bureau has taken the lead and will ask the co-operation of the interior towns in suonniuiig an initiative pui-nun to the voters of Oregon, establishing a maximum distance table of rates to be applied for the entire state, and pro hibiting any deviation from this schedule in the granting of lesser distance class rates. Equitable rates for all, one schedule of distance class for the entire state, will be the slogan. PEESS FALSE TO ITS TRUST. In many particular, demonstrated Harold Vnmlerliilt to Wed. XI.WTOKT, It.

The missive is almost word for word the same as that he wrote to the Washington school girl. Since the Washington Times printed his latest es capade, all of the Portland papers have copied and all have reviewed Lafferty s career as masher, hypocrite and liar. "Why did these metropolitan journals delay the publi cation of these scandals when they were in full possession of facts a year ago? . Why did these newspapers by suppressing these vul gar incidents, permit the people of Oregon to send a de generate to congress? Alone of tho journals of the state, the Portland Specta T on oviollonf wpp.VIv -nnblination. told the truth about Lafferty and his career. But the Spectator's circulation is necessarily umitea to tne more cuuureu uiussua. the ammunition it supplied was sufficient to have defeat ed Lafferty if a single one of the metropolitan dailies had featured it. In concealing Lafferty 's true record the press ot Portland has proved false to their duty and obligation to the public. They can, however, partially atone for their shortcomings by fathering the recall. For such cases as Xiattcixys, was tne rccau ueviauu s4 Are Your Eyes Not Worth Insuring?
