BRYAN SHELVES
IfiSHIP ISSUE
Says People Want to Try
Railroad Regulation
Thoroughly.
NOT PLAY RAILROAD'S GAME
democratic Leader Doubts Success of
Regulation, Vrges Defense ot
gtate Rights and Recom
mends a Party Platform.
LINCOLN. Neb., July 20. (Special.)
In a statement Issued today, W. J. Bryan
removes Government ownership of rail
roads from the list of Democratic issues.
"As the campaign approaches," he
says, "it becomes more and more evident
that, of the economic questions,, three
the trust question, the tariff question and
the railroad qaestion will share publlo
attention, and these three really present
the same issue between the general pub
llo and the privileged classes: Shall the
Government be administered In the in
terest of tha whole people, or in the in
terest of a few? This is the issue pre
sented by the trust question, the tariff
question and the railroad question.
Try Regulation First.
"Government ownership is not an im
mediate issue. A large majority of the
people still hope for effective regulation
and, while they so hope, they will not
consider ownership. While many Demo
crats believe, and I am one of the num
ber, that public ownership offers the ulti
mate solution of the problem, still those
who believe that the publio will Anally.
In self-defense, be driven to ownership,
recognize that regulation must be tried
under the most favorable circumstances
before the masses will be ready to try a
more radical remedy. Regulation cannot
be sufficiently tried within the next year,
and there is no desire anywhere to make
Oovernment ownership an issue in 1906."
Mr. Bryan fully agrees with those who
believe that it would be unwise to turn
attention from regulation, on which the
people are ready to act, to Government
ownership, upon which the people are not
ready to act. To Inject the Government
ownership question into the next cam
paign, he says, would simply give repre-
sentatives of the railroads a chance to
dodge the issue of regulation and deceive
the public.
Haa Been Ineffective So Far.
"So far the railroads have been success
ful in preventing effective Federal regula
tion and state regulation has as a rule
been restrained by the United States
courts. It is about 20 years since the
Interstate Commerce Commission was
created. It required about 10 years for
the courts to And out that the powers
conferred were insufficient and then it
took about ten years to secure an amend
ment. The railroads fought the amend
ment at every step and the President was
finally forced to compromise with the rail
road Republicans in the Senate in order
to secure their support. Evan that amend
ment, secured with tremendous effort,
falls short of what it should be. It aims
to stop passes and rebates.
"State legislation for the reduction of
rates has resulted In an agitation on the
part of railroads for legislation which
will deprive the state of authority and
centralize all rate legislation in Congress.
The Democratic party must meet the
issue presented: it must resist the en
croachments upon the authority of the
states.
What Democracy Should Do.
"The Democratic party has in three
National conventions demanded re
forms, while the Republican platforms
have Jioen silent on the subject. The
President has partially adopted ' the
Democratio view on this subject, but
so far the Republican leaders have
resolutely opposed it. The President Is
helping to educate the people up to the
neetf of railroad regulation, but his
party, under its present leadership, is
powerless to accomplish this or any
other Important reform.
"If the Democratic party will clearly
and unequivocally demand first, the
ascertaining of the value of all the
railroads; second, the preventing of
over-capitalization;, and third, the re
duction of rates to a point where fliey
will yield only a reasonable return
upon the real value of the roads if
the party will do this, it will commend
Itself not only to Democrats, but to
those Republicans who have been led
to study the railroad situation. The
railroad situation presents a vital issue
,and the issue should be so stated that
everyone can understand the party po
sition." QUITS ME FOR JAP1ESE

DISSECTS
'S
(Continued from First Pag-.)
bles started In Northern Idaho the
leaders of the Western federation of
Miners thought he would be found on
their side. But Steunenberg thought
more of law and order, and his firm
course In stamping out the disorders
aroused the enmity of the miners' or
ganization. If there is one. class of
men the leaders of an organization like
this Is -seen to despise above all others,
it is those who have once been
friendly but who turn against thera be
cause of their misdeeds."
Why Was Simpkins There?
When it came to the taking off of
Steunenbers Mr. Hawley said it was
but natural that Orchard should be
selected He had attained the distinc
tion of being the "boss killer of the
leaders of the Western Federation of
Miners;" hie exploits had eclipsed even
those of Steve Adams, "Kid" Minster
and others who had enjoyed the con-
(Special.)-Mrs. James Campbell,
one of the state's earliest and best
known pioneers, died at her home
on Camp Creek, Wednesday morn
ing, July 17, after a short illness
from paralysis.
Mrs.' Campbell, whose maiden
name was. Mary Jane Starr, was
born in Belmont County,. Ohio, De
cember 10, 1830. "When at the age
of 8 years tier parents moved to
Van Buren County, Iowa, and it
was in this state that she grew to
womanhood. March 15, 1853, She was
married to James Campbell. In 1S58
with her' husband 'she moved to
Benton County, Oregon. At this
place they resided for 14 years, and
In lSTi moved to Lane County and
settled about ten miles east of
Springfield, on Camp Creek, where
she has since resided. She was the
mother of 11 children, seven of
which are now ' living. She also
leaves a husband and two brothers.
Mrs. Campbell was one of the
best - known women in Lane
County. She has been very active
in church work for many years and
fidence of the "Inner circle." ' Trac
ing Orchard's movements about the
time of the tragedy, Mr. Hawley told
of his meeting with Jack Simpkins,
a member of the executive board of
the Federation, who agreed to help in
the destruction of Steunenberg. The
two went together to Caldwell on their
mission of murder. Had Caldwell been
a mining tirap, there might not have
been anything strange in Simpkins'
going there, but it was a small town
with an agricultural population and
the man who was an organizer of
the Federation could- have had no
good reason for remaining there day
after day under the assumed name of
"L Simmon." Simpkins, in company
with Orchard, was seen time after time
about the home of the ex-Governor.
"Tell me by your verdict, gentle
men of the Jury," exclaimed Mr. Haw
ley, "what this man Simpkins, this
associate of Moyer, Haywood and Pet
tlbone, this leader of the Western
Federation of Miners, was doing there.
If it was not to accomplish the death of
Steunenberg."
SimpkinB was finally called away to
a meeting of the Federation In Den
ver, leaving the murder to Harry Or
chard, in whom he had reason to re-
pose every confidence. .
On the eve of the New Tear the ter
rible deed was accomplished. The
death of Steunenberg was a shock not
only to his home community and to
tne state over which he had ruled,, but
to the entire Nation. It was for this
act the 'killing of Frank Steunenberg
,by Orchard, with the assistance of
Jack Slisjpkins and at the instigation
of William D. Haywood. Charles H.
Moyer and George A. Pettibone that
this trial has been had, declared the
prosecutor, who then continued:
"And after we consider all the evi
dence, how can we arrive at any other
conclusion than that Orchard was actu
ated solely by a desire to serve his em
ployers and to earn money by his mis
deeds." As connecting Haywood, Moyer and
Pettibone directly with Orchard at the
time of the killing of Steunenberg, Mr.
Hawley read the letter which reached
Orchard in the jail at Caldwell and
which Orchard testified was in the
handwriting of George A. Pettibone.
The letter read:
"That was sent to Jaok for you and
should reach you soon."
At this same time Haywood admitted
sending, a draft for $100 to Jack Simp
kins, saying the latter had left the
money with him when he started out
on a prospecting trip.
Nearing the- close of his address, Mr.
Hawley dwelt for some time upon the
rush of the Federation attorneys to
defend Harry Orchard. He told of the
$1500 retainer paid to Fred Miller, of
Spokane, and demanded to know why
the Western Federation should defend
its members accused of crime any more
than the Masons, Oddfellows or any
other organization defends its mem
bers. .
"I tell you. Gentlemen of the Jury,
that. If Harry Orchard had killed a man
who had not been prominent In politi
cal life, a man who had not incurred the
displeasure, the enmity, of Moyer, Hay
wood and Pettibone; the Western Fed
eration of Miners would not nave spent
1500 cents in his defense, much less
$1500.
"Too much s cress, gentlemen, cannot
be laid upon the connection of Jack
Simpkins with this crime. His failure
to appear nere, his being a fugitive
from Justice in the face of an indict
ment charging the grave crime of mur
der, are proof positive that he is a
guilty man. Yet in the face of this
what do we find that Jack Simpkins
Is retained through two annual elections
as a member of the executive board of
the Western Federation of Miners and
stands today as one of the highest of
ficers of the organization. I ask you
in all seriousness if you can imagine
anything more defiant of publio opinion
tjian this?"
Evidence of Orchard's Threats.
Mr. Hawley reviewed the testimony
of the various witnesses who testified
that they had heard Orchard make
threats against Steunenberg. Most of
this testimony came from "bright and
shining lights of the Federation," from
an old soldier who had been in the in
sane asylum twice, and whose testi
mony was shown to be false in practi

cally every detail; from General Gene
Engley. an ex-Attorney-General of
Colorado, "one of those misfit politi
cians who floated into office when
'Bloody Bridles' Waite was placed in
the Governor's chair, the glib person
who came here and discoursed on scien
tific anarchy and philosophic social
ism and would have been talking yet if
his own counsel had not stopped him;
from Dave Coates, who, when he be
lieved Harry Orchard was about to kid
nap the children of Gus Paulson, failed
to say anything about it to Paulson."
and from various others whose testi
mony tile attorney characterized as un
worthy of belief.
"It seems that all these threats were
made by Orchard to casual acquain
tances. The defense has failed utterly
to show that he talked to anyone or nis
friends about his grievance .against
Steunenberg. He said nothing to Paul
son, his old partner; he said nothing
to Haywood or to Moyer, as they them
selves have testified, or to Pettibone,
so far as we know, prchard had sold
out his interest in the Hercules mine
more than a year before Governor
Steunenberg ran him or anybody else
out of Northern Idaho."
Mr. Hawley declared it was time
the leaders of the Western Federation
of Miners were brought to the bar of
Justice and Shown that there is a
higher law in this" land than their own
desires.
"It is time for us to show
them that here in Idaho we are
a law-abiding. God-fearing people- who
intend to do our duty toward the lead
ers' of the Western Federation of
Miners or some lowly tramp just blown
into the state and charged with some
minor offense. We believe you men
of the Jury are impressed with a firm
desire to do your duty as you see it.
All that the prosecution asks is your
best Judgment, your honest judgment.
"In the argument on the other side
we will hear much of capital waging
war on labor unions. Nothing could
be more untrue in this case. All that
has been spent in this inquiry has come
from the coffers of the State of Idaho.
As to labor unions, no man has a higher
regard than 1 have for them and no
man believes more strongly than I do
that laboring men should band them
selves together to secure shorter hours
and higher wages. But the Western
Federation of Miners under the lead
ership of Moyer, Haywood and Petti
bone cannot be classed with any of
the labor organizations that we know
of and which will be referred to by
counsel, for the labor organizations
that we know are not in criminal hands
and are not criminal in intent and pur
pose. Neither are the rank and file
of the Western Federation, but the or
ganization has fallen Into . sinister
hands.
Labor Union Perverted to Crime.
"As to the part I took as counsel
In the organization, of the Western
Federation of Mlners,'I have no apolo
gies to make. If my advice aud coun
sel had been aoted upon, the organi
zation would have been a powerful
factor for good in the development of
the West instead of an englruj of op
pression. Its unenviable position today
is due to the arrogance of its leaders
in seeking to control the politics -and
society of 'the communities where it
operates.
"1 tell you in all earnestness that the
Western Federation of Miners, as rep
resented by its leaders, is not an
American institution, but is trying to
subvert the laws of the land. It is not
in harmony with our constitution and
our laws.
"Gentlemen of the Jury, I have omit
ted many of the hundreds ot incidents
thaVhave come up in the evidence of
this case because of the length of time
that would be required and the fatigue
it would cause you. I have no desire,
gentlemen, to have the scalp of any
innocent man dangling at my girdle.
I would not have an innocent man con
victed through a single word of mine.
I wish I could find some way of recon
ciling the testimony in this case with
the innocence of this defendant. But
I can reach but one conclusion that
he is not only responsible for the mur
der charged before you, but for scores
of other grave crimes. But my opinion
is nothing, the opinion of the opposing
counsel is nothing,- you with the evi
dence to guide you, are the sale judges,
and I for one will be satisfied, what
ever your verdict may be."
Mr. Hawley concluded at 4:45 P. M., at
which time court adjourned until Mon
day morning at 9:30 o'clock.
HOME-OWNERS. VICTORS

SEASIDE, Or, July 20. (Special.)
One of the most important elections
ever held in West Seaside occurred to
day. A full city ticket was elected and
a fight was on between two factions,
the resident and nonresident owners.
The resident owners called their ticket
the "Citizens and Home Rule" ticket,
while the nonresidents headed thtir
ticket "Home Owners Rule." Legal
opinion had been sought by the real
dents and according to that opinion the
nonresidents were, not entitled to hold
office nor to vote.
The vote of the Portland residents was
challenged, but Justice Logan and Dan
J. Malarkey permitted the vote to be cast
on the ground that the voters were prop
erty-owners and were entitled to vote
under the charter. The election was quiet,
yet the Interest was keen.
When the votes were counted it w.a
found that the "Owners Rule" ticket
(The Portland owners) had defeated the
"Citizens and Home Rule" ticket (the
West Seaside residents) by a vote of 3
to 1.
A. H. Wilson was elected Mayor over
Alex Ketterman y a vote of 37 to 12. H.
M. Wheatly was elected Recorder, W. L.
Heninger, treasurer, and 8. D. Llndsley,
