William Jennlnps f.ryan. wh!!o the
aucst of H'tlse today. In an Interview,
predicted trouble ahead for the He
publtcan party with Colonel Theodore
Hoosevelt In the race for Iresldent.
llryan was a-lven a genuine ovation
liy thousands of people who listened to
Ma address In the theater here. The
overflow crowd had to be addressed
from tlie outside of the playhouse.
He chanted Itemocratlc harmony In his
set speech and admitted he was not
the strongest man In Ills party.
Roosevelt's letter has hart the ef
fect of precipitailnB a roo.i deal of
proeresslveness that the Republican
party had In solution." stated Mr.
Ilrj an. "There Ja trouble uhcad for
the Republicans. Roosevelt's letter
separates the two elements of the Ite
pnbliran party so that we shall soon
be able to Judge the proportion that
will be a cam to the public, no matter
how the contest letween the president
antl ev-Presldent turns out.
"The line, of course, cannot he drawn
with abs.tite aoruracv. because some
of the progressives favor latFolIelte.
and then. I tak- It for trfanted. a ood
tnanv of tnem will be restrained Jroai

their opposition to the two. term pre

the fact that he Is not a pro-rcssle
en all questions. Ms altitude on the
trust question cannot satisfy tlie pro
gressives'." Sneaking of litmself. Colonel Uryan
said: "I am satisfied I am not the

The. citizens of Newport are very
much pciturbed over the article, m hlch
appeared In The Pun. lay OrcRonlan rel
ative to eliminating the Summer excur
sion rnles to Ncm port. It is the -sen-era!
feelln-r that the statement In the
nrtlcle referring to 'warrln-c oyer
rates and dates for the annuat clam
bake" un.l "hostility to Corvallis
Kastern officials" Is unjust when ap
plied to Newport citizens In a peneral
may.
It Is a-lniitted that last season there
mas a .sl:-rht disagreement anions cer
tain persons, pot the citizens of New
port In the az-rrrsate. t.ver holdinu the
annual clambake on Sumlny. Tiic only
question of rates ever raised: was dfir
Irfi! the recent rate hearinir esse be
fore the State Itallruad Commission,
when a few persons. snmOnot even
lesidents of the city, adopted resolu
tions and forwarded them to the com
missioners, antl otherwise published
t'ueni. This action met with condemna
tion generally b" ,:,e People of Ncm
port. Should the rallmay see fit to elirn
Inale the exclusion rates. It would be
a very serious matter for tlis citizens
of this place, mho are more or less de
pendent upon the tourist travel to sus
tain their business.
At the CoQinicrclal Club mcetlnc on
Monday tills matter mas the subject
of considerable debate, anil the roilom
Ins resolution was unanimously sd. pl
ed :
Krsolved. That this club i!rpreeat.-a the
r.en .paper reptttn concernlne Summer fares
to Nsssnn antl that we hope tun. In vlw
of the fad leal N- port peop hse built

a creat numt.tr ef attracts r Uiincaluns. a

at a tmsl estimated cost fer tmpntt emeius
ef $l.V.ttOO. a. so extensive street imprOA-e-inents
bv the city, that the pasgrnser de
partment of the Southern PaclMc rallmay
sill take regnixance ef these fsets antl
meet us half war in regard to iares and
tra-elina avCommodatltne.
The club lias tendered an Invitation
to tlie Commercial Clubs of Albany and
Corvallis 10 come to Nemport and have
a -rreat booster mectlnff. Rates were
asked from the Sonihrrn Pacific for
this occasion, antl In reply to the re
quest the following letter m-as received
from John M. Scott:
"This is certainly a step in tite rl-cht
direction, and you may rest assured the
Corvallis Ac Eastern will be Kiad to
co-operate with you in every may pos
sible. It will also Blve us pleasure to
make the party a rate of one fare for
tlie round trip from Albany and $2.10
from Corvallis."
Preparations are now in progress for
this meeting, which probably will be
held early in April. Various side trips
and a banquet m ill he, arranged for tiic
entertainment of the visitors.
The club Is engaired In carrying on
an investigation of tile conditions of
the rosds leading to the Willamette
Valley and their adaptation for auto
travel. Also the road up the coast to
the Slletz Kay. and has invited the
Ptudebaker Auto Company to Join the
club in a pathfliidlna- trip.
A campaign of education upon sewer
ace lias also been undertaken by the
club, and will be carried on energet
ically until such time as the city Is
provided with an adequate sewerage
system.
