Whit ney, " prominent Alassachusetta Dem ocrat, and former' candidate for Lieu tenant Governor, 'to-night made pub 1 llo ft letter he had Just received from , ' AVllllftm, J. : Bryan, dealing - with the : railroad question. The letter was in k response w one from Mr. Whitney, p In which he aike-. "Whether in your ' judgment there .1 any danger of reg Vlatlon being carried to a point pre venting a reasonable return on money Invested In the . railroads'', of. ' the country, and whether In case of adop ' tton of government ownership by the t nation or by the : several ; States the , stockholders could xpect to receive a price equal to the value of thephy- . leal railroad properties?" 'ty-..-.; Mr.. Bryan writes In part as follows! ' 1 am' in j favor 3 of both national And state regulations, and 1 also be leve that public .ownership la'the Ul , 'tlmate solution of the railroad quea tioai "la: my discussions on- this subject-1 have pointed out that because ' of -the - danger- of centralization : ' in ' ownership by the Federal government of all Jthe lines, I prefer a system in . , which, the Federal government will be confined o the necessary trunk ' llne,;'and the',wner8hlp" of the rest of the lines be left to the States. This, , however, is not an Immediate ques tion; at least I am not sure that the people are ready to consider the " , question of public ownership, and un til they are ready to consider1 that question the interest is centered in ! regulation. As an advocate of reg ' ulatlon of the strictest sort, I can say to you that there is no danger what v ever that this regulation will be car rled to the point of preventing a reas onable return on money invested in the railroads of the country. And I also assure you that whenever public ownership Is adopted by the States or by the nation, the stockholders may . expect to receive a price at least equal to the value of the physical proper ties of the road; but no such assur ance ought to be necessary, because the public has shown no disposition to reduce railroad earnings to a point which would deny a reasonable re turn. "I have contended that the present value of the railroad should be as certained by the Inter-State commerce commission and the commissions of the various States in order that in vestors may know when they . are buying stock of Intrinsic value and When they are being cheated, "I think I can speak for those who believe In regulation and I know that there is not and never has been dan ger of injustice to the owners of the railroads, and If I can speak for those who believe rfhat the ultimate solu tion, of the railroad is to be foujid in public ownership, I can say that there is no disposition to confiscate rail road property even if the ' courts would permit It."

" The Republicans have decided to make a straight fight . in Asheville this spring. There will be no "Independent" or "cltl sens" movement, which heretofore have been fostered and launched by the Re publicans and disgruntled - Democrats. These movements in the past with a few exceptions have met with crushing de feat and the Republicans have borne the stigma. The Republicans now say that It they are to meet defeat they would rather go down In a ' dignified manner with no "Independent," or . "clti xens". movement attachments. They are going to nominate only straight Repub licans. They are not very hopeful of victory. As a matter of fact they expect defeat, but in perfecting a city Republi can organization and conducting an-active, municipal campaign they reel that they will be laying the foundation for a vigorous county and congressional fight next year with goodshow of success. For several years the Republicans have dacked organisation In Asheville fend Buneombe county and this facn they are ready to admit They contend now, how ever, 'that they- are going to wake up and get busy; organise; sound the bugle call -for a meeting of the faithful and fight straight from, the shoulder.
