says bryan DID T Hearst Reiterates Charge Against Democratic Nominee. DREW HIM ASIDE IN HALL "It You Support Me This Time I Will, of Course, Support You Next Campaign," la What Peerless One Said. ATLANTA. Ga., Sept. 13. W. R. Hearst, of New York, tonlftht gave to the Associated Press a statement In reference to the published denial by W. J. Bryan of the statement made by Mr. Hearst In his speech at the formal notification of John Temple Graves of the nomination for the Vice-Presidency by the Independence party. The statement follows: "Of course Mr. Bryan cannot deny be ing; at my house, for Mr. Chanler, In his suit, made affidavit that he saw him there. Of course he cannot deny that he met me at the dinner, because Dr. Gard ner and Mr. Murphy, of Murk Cross, were present at the dinner at Dr. Cox's house at which" I found Mr. Bryan. "I have not mentioned Dr. Cox's name, but Mr. Bryan has seen At to do so. Therefore the whole truth might as well oome out. "After the dinner Mr. Bryan drew me aside In the hall while Dr. Cox politely entertained the other gentlemen. "Mr. Bryan said. "Think I can say pos itively that I will be the next Democ ratio nominee, and I believe I will be elected. My position. In history la secure. I In tend to 'serve only one term. If you sup port the Democratic ticket you will nat urally be the nominee next time, and If you support the nominee this campaign, I will, of course, support you next cam paign.' "If this statement Is susceptible of any other construction than the one I put on It. then I should apologize to Mr. Bryan, and If It Is not susceptible of any other construction, then Mr. Bryan should apologize to me." PRESIDENT LAUDS TAFT fContlnued From Flmt Page.) ing him backed by a majority In both bouses of Congress, which will heartily support his policies. For the last 10 years, while I have been Governor of New Tork and President, I have been thrown into the closest Intimacy with him, and he and I have wn every essen tial point stood in heartiest agreement, shoulder to shoulder. We have the same views as to what Is demanded by the National Interest and honor, both with in our borders and as regards the rela tions of this Nation with other nations. There Is no fight for decency and fair dealing which I have waged In which I have not had his heartiest and most effective sympathy and support, and the policies for which I stand are his poli cies -as much, as (nine. Let him be I juagea oy wnat ne pas mmsen oone and by what the administration, in which he has played co conspicuous a part, has done. "But to illustrate just what his atti tude is, let me touch on two matters now prominent In the public mind. The railroad problem is Itself one of the phases of the greatest and most Intri cate problems of our civilization; for Its proper solution we need not merely honesty and courage, but Judgment, good sense and entire fair-mindedness. Demagogery In such a matter is as cer tain to work evil as corruption Itself. The man who promises to raise the wages of railroad employes to the high est point and at the same time to re duce rates to the lowest point Is prom ising what neither he nor anyone else can perform, and if the effort to per form were attempted, disaster would result to both shipper and wage-worker, and ruin to the business Interests of the country. War I'pon Wrongdoers. "The man to trust in such a matter as this is the man who. like Judge Taft, does not promise too much, but who could rot be swayed from the path of duty by any argument, by any consideration; who will wage relentless war on the suc cessful wrong-doer among railroad men as among all other men; who will do all that can be done to secure legitimately low rates to shippers and absolute even ness among the rates thus secured: but who will neither promise nor attempt to secure rates so low that the wage-earner would lose his earnings and the share holder, whose money built the road, his profits. He will not favor a ruinous ex periment like Government ownership of rallwaj-s; he will stand against any kind of confiscation of honestly acquired prop erty, but he will work effectively for the most efficient type of Government super vision and control of railways, so as to secure Just and fair treatment of the peo ple as a whole. . "What la here said as to his attitude on the railway question applies to the whole question of the trusts. He will promise nothing on this subject unless he firmly believes he can make his promise good. If there is one body of men more than another whose support I feel I have a right to challenge on behalf of Secre tary Taft,- it is the body of wageworkers of the country. A stancher friend, a fairer and truer representative, they can not find within the borders of the United States. He will do everything In his power for them except to do that which Is wrong: he will do wrong for no man. nd therefore can be trusted by all men. During the ten years of my intimate ac quaintance with him. since I have myself, as Governor and President, been obliged to deal practically with labor problems, he has been one of the men upon whose Judgment and aid I could always rely In doing everything possible for the cause of the wageworker. of the man who works with his hands, or with both hands and head. Promises All Fulfilled. "Mr. Taft has been attacked b?cause of the injunctions he delivered while on the bench. I am content to rest his case on these very injunctions. He will not con sent to limit the power of the courts to put a stop to wrongdoing wherever found. This very fact should make the labor people feel a peculiar confidence in him. He Is pledged to do all he can to put a stop to the abuses In the exer cise of the power of Injunctions. He will never promise anything that he will not do all In his power to perform. "His record as a Judge makes the whole country his debtor. His actions and de cisions are part of the great traditions of the bench. They guaranteed and set forth in striking fashion the rights of the general public as against the selfish in terests of any class, whether of capitalists or of laborers. They set forth and stand by the rights of the wage workers to organize and strike, as unequivocally as they set forth, and stand by the doctrine OH SUPPOH that no conduct will be tolerated that would spell destruction to the Nation as a whole. No responsible organization would now hesitate to condemn the abuses against which Judge Taft's injunctions were aimed. The principles which he therein so wisely and fearlessly laid down serve as a charter of liberty for all of us for wage workers, for employers, for the general public: for they rest on the principles of fair dealing for all. of even handed Justice for all. They mark the Judge who rendered them as standing for the rights of the whole people: as far as daylight from darkness, so far is such a Judge from the tlmeeerver. the truckler to the mob. or the cringing tool of great, corrupt and corrupting corporations. Keen .Sense of justice. "In one of his decisions upon the bench Judge Taft upheld ifl the strongest fashion, and for the first time gave full vitality to the principle of employers' liability for Injuries done workmen. This was before any National law on the sub ject was enacted. Judge Taft's sense of right, his indignation against oppression in any form, against any attitude that is not fair and Just, drove him to take a position which was violently condemned by short-sighted capitalists and. employ ers of labor, which was so far in ad vance of the time that it was not gen erally upheld by the state courts, but which we are now embodying in the law of the land. Judge Taft ,,ad"' pioneer, while on the bench. In the effort to get Justice for the wage worker, in Jealous championship of his rights, and all upright and far-sighted laboring men should hold to his credit that at the same time he fearlessly stood against the abuses of labor. Just as he fearlessly stood against the abuses of capital If elected he has shown by his deeds that he will be President of no class but of the peo ple as a whole: he can be trusted to stand stoutly against the two real ene mies of our democracy against the man who to please one class would undermine The whoe foundation of orderly liberty and against the man who in the interest of another class would secure business prosperity by sacrificing every right of the working people. Vigilance and Kfficlency. "I have striven as President to cham pion In every proper way the interests of the wageworker. I would for no consid eration advise the wageworker to do what I thought was against his Interest. I ak his support for Mr. Taft exactly as I ask such support from every far-sighted and right-thinking American citizen, because I believe with all my heart that nowhere within the borders of our great country can there be found another man who will as vigilantly and efficiently as Mr Taft support the rights of the work lngman as he will the rights of every man who In good faith strives to do his duty as an American citizen. He will protect the Just rights of both rich and poor, and he will war relentlessly against lawlessness and Injustice whether exer cised on behalf of property or labor. "On the bench Judge Taft showed the two qualities which make a great judge wisdom and moral courage. They are also the two qualities which make a great President." SOULS TO OPEN TODAY FAXIi term begins with a large attendance. Trade School, a Sew Department That Attracts Great Interest. Will Be in Atkinson Building. Portland's public schools open for the Fall term this morning at 9 o'clock. The regular school work will not, however, be begun until tomorrow, today's session being devoted merely to receiving and registering pupils and assigning-them to classes. After receiving their book lists pupils will be dismissed for the day. With a single exception, the public school buildings are ready for occupancy. The Albina Homestead School will not be completed for about three weeks. In the meantime, pupils assigned to that school will occupy the assembly-rooms of the Thompson and Highland Schools. The new Richmond School will receive a number of pupils from the Sunnyslde Glencoe and Clinton-Kelly Schools, and will materially relieve the overcrowding In the latter buildings. The new school at Peninsula will replace the obsolete structure occupied by the pupils of that district last year. The additions to the Shaver, Arleta and Sell wood Schools are completed, and will afford Improved fa cilities in those districts. While the al terations In the Shattuck School are not yet completed, they are of such a nature that the class work can be carried on without inconvenience. The recently authorized trade school will open this morning with an enroll ment of about 75 pupils. This is a larger number than was anticipated when the school was planned, and it is believed the number will be considerably increased within the next few weeks. This school will occupy the west half of the Atkinson building, at Twelfth and Davis streets. Facilities have been furnished for prac tical training in machine shop practice, plumbing. carpentry. pattern-making, electrical construction and molding. In addition, pupils will be taught English, mathematics and drawing. A school for deaf mutes will be opened in the near future.

The name of Secretary of State Elihu Root was on many tongues late today. Mr. Root arrived at the United States Hotel this afternoon. He is to act as both temporary and permanent chairman of the convention. Chairman Timothy L.
