THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AXD SUX-TELEGRA3I, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1910.

ALL C0WPETITI0I1 TO BEJESTROYED Passing of Pacific Express Company Leaves Field to Adams Express Co.

A CHANGE MADE ON C. & 0. CONDITIONS NOW EXISTING HERE . SAME AS RESULTED IN A BONUS BEING VOTED TO OLD C, R. A M. ROAD.

With the pausing of the control of the express business over the C. and O. to the Adams company at an early date, Richmond will again return to the condition that at one time was the eurce of much agitation and which was one of the Important' factors In the voting of the subsidy to the old C, R. & M. railway lack of express competition. At the time the new 'railroad was proposed there was a load protest over the fact that Richmond had but one express company Gladys II. Wilkinson. It business as It saw fit, charging any prices that It cared to charge. When the subsidy was voted It was with , the hope that express competition would be afforded and it has been to this time. With the hope that something might be found In the records of the subJldy grant or the records of the negotiations by which the C, R. & M. 'gained admission to Richmond, a eerch has been mado but there Is nothing to show any agreement on the part of the road to maintain express competition, so that In the present circumstances the city has no recourse. , ; The nearest approach to competition after the first or November is that afforded by the United States company operating over the traction line east and west. This company does a considerable business In light express, but it Is not in position of

to the nation-wide service that Is given by the Adams people.

last-named particular, the painting Is well worth looking at. As has been said, .it is a representation of . still life, a beautiful bit of realistic art sunlight and shadow in a corner of a studio. Consequently the gift will be appreciated for its value as art. Of greater present Interest, however. Is the fact that the International Art League of Paris chose Richmond as the city most worthy of being made the recipient of the union's 2,500 franc Whitney-Hoff museum purchase gift. Other cities were considered but Richmond was chosen. To Encourage Women. The Whitney-Hoff museum purchase fund was established two years ago by Mrs. Hoff, formerly of Detroit and now honorary president of the International Art Union of Paris. Mrs. Hoff, who is a woman of wealth, established this fund to encourage young women artists In Paris. This organization, it should be noted, is made up of women artists of all nationalities. As has been stated, the fund was established two years ago and the first gift was made to the Detroit Museum of Art. This painting was by Elizabeth Kourse and is entitled, "The Happy Days." It should be noted In passing that the WhitneyHoff museum purchase gifts are the best things submitted In the year's exhibits of the International Art Union. The prize pictures become the property of Mrs. Hoff, who in turn presents them through the Art Union to some American art museuf association. Paris, Aug. 23, 1910. Dear Madam: "A Corner of the Studio," is the work of Gladys H. Wilkinson, an English woman who has a studio in Paris and does much of her work In that city. Apropos this picture, Mrs. M. F. Johnston has received an Interesting letter from Miss Wilkinson. The letter Is worth quoting In full and is as follows: Miss Chapman (president of the International Art Union) showed me your kind letter of welcome to the new "Inmate" of your museum, and I feel cheered to think it will have a lenient reception, and am so interested to hear all about its destination. It may Interest you to know there is a link between It and America, as my mother was born in Philadelphia

and lived most of her childhood in

Pennsylvania. Miss Chapman has asked

me to give a few details about myself.

I was born at Greenleys, Manchester. England, and studied many things un

til I took to painting seriously. I have always studied In Paris, chiefly with M. Raphael Collin and M. Lasar.

Very truly yours, Gladys H. Winklnson. The Jury of award that selected "A

Corner of the Studio" as the winner of

the Whitney-Hoff prize Is made up of

four well known Parisian artists Lu-

clen Simon, Charles Cattet, Eugene

Lagare and Miss Elizabeth Nourse.

Miss Nourse is an American by

birth, a native of Cincinnati. She has

been abroad a number of years.

is put up by your party vote against hlmr1 but if it is a mere difference of opinion on seine point, vote for him, for it is the only way in which progress can be made. He depicted clearly the difference between gooda and bad partisanship, and outlined what the two parties are presenting in national and state affairs. What the Question Is. "We are trying to apply the rules of conduct that existed at the organization of the republican party. said Mr. Garfield, "to the conditions of today. We are trying to show that the republican party is as progressive as at the time of Its creation. We are not to content to rest upon the traditions of the republican party but maintain that it has In it today all the qualities of that time. Today the attack Is as great as it was in 1856 or In 1860, and the declaration of Lincoln that the nation could not exist half slave and half free is as true in reference to It being controlled half by wealth and the other half not controlled by wealth. There Is no middle ground. The question is, how shall we regain Industrial freedom and political freedom?" Mr. Garfield admitted that the party has done what it should on the tariff queston, but that with the republicans the tariff is a constructive work while with the democrats it is a destructive work. He argued for a commission, which he regards as the only way to solve the problem and he gave Senator Beveridge credit for originating this plan. He referred to the conservation of the natural resources of the country and to the fight for better conditions for the child laborer, in which Beveridge has been one of the main factors. He regards conservation as one of the greatest questions before the country today and that the democrats have nothing of equal Importance to offer. The democrats have no well considered plans; nothing but criticism. The republicans realize their own mistakes and are proposing to remedy them. He declared that many of the leaders in the republican party today will not be the leaders in the future, but men will be chosen who will carry out the party promises. In view of this fact the party has a right to ask a renewal of the vote of confidence that has been given it bo frequently. Indiana Situation. Mr. Garfield took up the charge that the party is not consistent,-that it is

advocating one thing In one state and

another thing in another state. He would meet this condition by using the Implements that are at hand as far as possible. He would not compromise on any principle that is fundamental, but he would not refuse to take advantage - of what is available because all cannot be secured at once that is desired. The Indiana situation Mr. Garfield declared to be of special interest and to be attracting the attention of the entire nation. This Is largely true because the republican candidate for the United States senate, Mr. Beveridge, is one of the great leaders of the party and his return means much to the country at large; his defeat means a set back to progressive politics. He advised the voters against trying to work out personal animosities. Beveridge he declared to be one of the most fearless and progressive leaders in congress today. This must be ac

knowledged when his record is read for It will be found that he has stood for the Interest of the people; that he has stood with Dolliver, Lafollette, Brlstow and others of the great leaders. Mr. Beveridge be declared, is making his race in the face of bitter opposition and it is a great duty the republicans owe not only to themselves, but to the nation to return hfra fo the United States senate, declared the speaker. "Drive out the special interests" was the closing declaration of Mr. Garfield.

Marion, Ind., Oct. 19. Oliver M. Bish. for twenty years a school teacher of Grant county and of recent years a truck gardener, has furnished the site for the new state capitol at Oklahoma at Oklahoma City and Incidentally will make a fortune of several hundred thousand dollars. Seven years ago, Mr. Bish bought a farm of 160 acres adjoining Oklahoma City at a cost of $3,000 and in 1909 sold eighty acres for $10,000. Last March he sold forty and a half acres of the same farm for $30,000 and this was deeded to the state of Oklahoma on September 20 as a site for 'a capitol building which is to cost $1,500,000. Last week Mr. Bish received a message from Governor Haskell to report

in Oklahoma City for a conference, and the result is that the Grant county man has deeded to the Oklahoma City commission a strip of land three hundred feet wide through the land he now owns for a boulevard. This will be the main approach to the capitol. Mr. Bish still owns thirty acres on this boulevard site which he will sell In lots at from S1.0C9 to $3,000 each. Mr. Bish has just returned from hfi conference with the Oklahoma City commission. His home Is in the Roseburg road, in 'Franklin township where with his family of a wife and three children he lives modestly. . .

The association officials demanded $10 in advance on their rooms accord-. ing to some of the prospective movers.
