after I got through my little plat

They don't mind saying what they are
going to do, either. And I tell you
the sentiment for Bryan is something
tremendous."
"I'll tell you, I was a presidential
elector in Tennessee in 1884, ana a
nresidentlal elector in Tennessee
means more than it does in most
States, for there a man is expected
to gfct out and run just like for any
other office. I stumped the State that
year for Cleveland, and I stumped it
again for Cleveland in 1892, and it is
my deliberate judgment that things
look brighter this year for Bryan than
they ever looked for Cleveland in
either 1884 or 1892. Judging by the
way the people talk, you understand,
I feel confident Indiana is going Dem
ocratic. Nebraska is certain to go
"for Bryan." And here he stopped.
"How about Kansas?" I asked.
"Upon my soul," he answered, "I
believe Kansas will go Democratic."
"I heard numbers of men out there
talk this way, I've been a Republican
and have always voted the Republican
ticket, but I'm going to vote for Bryan
"We've tried to down Bryan in every
way because we thought he was not
safe, that he was all wind and that
sort of thing, but he just will not
down. After both his overwhelming
defeats he has shown himself a big
enough man to absolutely dominate
the Democratic pdrty and to keep up
a big enthusiasm for him in all parts
of the country. He is far bigger to
day that he ever was, and he always
has had the interest of the people at
heart, and I'm just going to vote for
him. Of course, I'd vote for Roose
velt if he were running, but as he is
not, I'm going to vote for Bryan."
"The talk about Tennessee's going
Republican is ridiculous," he said,
when asked about his own State. "If
there is anything I do know it is the
State of Tennessee, every county, ev
ery town and hamlet, every rock and
rill, vine and flgtree, and I know the
Democratic State of Tennessee will
give Bryan a bigger majority than it
has ever given anybody in many a
day. Oh, yes, I'm going out there to
take the stump. I'm going to get up
and tell the boys what's what and
how's how."

The Richmond Times-Dispatch has
word to say about Republican ex
travagance, which follows:
"One hundred and fifty million dol-
lars deficit is a fact that the Republi
can party may dislike, but cannot
deny, nor can they escape the burden
of this condition by proclaiming that
the falling off Is due to our lessening
import trade, .because the increases of
the expenditures in the last Congress
is the prime cause of this remarkable
debit. The last session ot Congress
increased the total appropriations by
$80,000,000, and the total expenditures
of Congress will run up to $2,000,000,-
000. The army alone received $20,-
000,000 additional, the explanation of
which nobody seemed to thoroughly
understand. The world cruise of the
battleships will cost millions in re
pairs, besides the coal bills and ex
penses ot the voyage.

Promises to Build Railroads And Cap
tured By Shrlners
By Wire to The Sun.
Portland, Ore., Sept. 7. E. H. Har-
riman was the recipient of a great
deal of attention as he passed through
Central Oregon cities today on his way
to this city. All were interested In
learning of his plans for railroad ex
tension in this State.
At Roseburz. Mr. Harriman was
met by a delegation of prominent cit
izens of Coos Bay, who accepted his
invitation to ride with him and take
breakfast. He told them it he could be
Insured interest of 4 per cent, on an
investment of $5,000,000 for ten years
he would build a road Into the Coos
Bay country.
At Eugene, Mr. Harriman was tak
en on an automobile ride around the
cfty. At Albany, where he arrived
at noon, he was met by the Mayor
and several hundred citizens.
In an address Mr. Harriman said
'I intend to do more extensive rail
road building this year than for
long time, and Oregon will receive
her share. I will build across the
mountains, but have formed no defin
ite plans yet. My reception at Albany
and other points In Oregon has been
most pleasing. We must work to
gether. . - "!
A pleasing incident of the day was
the capture of Mr. Harriman at Hul-
sey by an excursion train ot Mystic'
Shrlners who were on their way to
Eugene. They threatened. to take the
railway magnate back to Eugene, but
he begged off on a promise to con
tribute a lot of "Zem Zem" water to
the crowd on its return to Portland.

and a fes placed on his head. He was
