RAYNER'S BRILLIANT ADDRESS
AWAKENS MUCH ENTHUSIASM
Washington, Nov. 8.--The cIlmax of
the Schley court of inquiry came on
Wednesday afternoon, when Mr. Ray-
nor ,the chief counsel for Admiral
8ehley, concluded a brilliant argument
of over three hours with a peroration
so eloquent and impassioned that all
within the sound of his voice were pro.
foundly touched. 2~ais remarkable
trial, he said, sought to condemn the
man who had brought to a success-
ful termination as great a naval ln'l-
umph as was ever won. In vivid col-
ors he painted the picture of the Brook-
lyn with Commodore Sehley on the
bridge, fighting the entire Spanish
fleet until the Oregon appeared out
of the smoke.
'q'he thun~lers of the Brooklyn. mu-
sic for the ears of his countrymen,"
he said, "aroused Admiral Schley'e en-
vious foes." He pictured the victori-
ous sailor suffering as few have suf.
fered, for three long years, while the
fires of persecution leaped around
him, and now awaiting the hour of
his vindication in the verdict of the
court,
"And when it comes." he concluded,
• "he can. from the high and exalted po-
sltlon that he occupies, look down
his traducers and maligners, and
excellent pride exclaim: "I care
not for the venomous gossip of clubs,
drawing rooms and cliques, and the
Poisoned shafts of envy and malice.
I await under the guidance of Divine
Providence the verdict of posterity'."
The scene in the court room as he
finished with *,.hose words was thrill.
The attendauce had been large
all day, and ar the morning scsslon
a lady had fainted from excitement.
As Mr. I{ayner began his eulogy of
Schley those in the audience.
many of whom were ladies, leaned
forward in their seats. The spell of
his oratory was over them. and when
he described the admiral's gallant
deeds and the long persecution to
which he had been subjected, many
of them broke down and wept.
The members of the court displayed
evidences of emotion, and Admiral
Schley himself was plainly moved.
He s~t leaning back, with his hand~
behind his head. His chin twitched,
and as his counsel said he could af-
ford to await the verdict of posterity,
two big tears rolled down his cheeks.
He moved uneasily to conceal his emo-
tion. and. under the pretence of ad-
Justing his glasses, brfished the tears
aside. For fully thirty seconds after
Mr. tLayner closed there was not a
sound. Then the session broke into a
loud burst of applause.
Admiral Dewey, after about half a
minute, arose to remind the spectators
that such a demonstration was out of
place. A moment afterward the court
adjourned, the Judge advocate plead-
lag that lie could not well go on till
next day. Then another remarkable
thing happened.
As soon as the gavel fell the entire
audience surged forward to shake the
hands of Admiral Schtey and Mr. Ray.
nor. But the oncoming spectators fell
back a moment as they sa~ Admiral
Dewey and his two assls~qnts move
around the ~able, as if by common im-
pulse, and congratulate Admiral Schly
and him eoun,el. Even Captain Lemly,
the Judge advocate, came forward to
Join in the congratulations` Then the
public had Its tnnings, and for fifteen
minutes after the court adjourned A-d-
mlral Schley and Mr. Bayner were
kept busy 'shaking bands.

P. E, BROOKS, A CANDIDATE FOR
CONGRESSMAN AT LARGE.
Something over a year ago, when the
question of selecting a candidate for
Congress for the Second district of Col.
Grade on tile Republican side caane up, !
the name of Mr. Franklin E. Bro~ks, of
Colorado Springs, was mentioned. It
was most favorably regorded, and ifI
Mr. Brooks had been willing, he might
have lmd the nomination. At that
time, however, his business and pro-
fessional interests were such that it
was impossible for him to take the
nomination, and it went ~manlmonsly
to Mr. Hogg, who made an a t~gressive
campaign and a good fight, in which
Mr. Brooks helped.
Since the last election, many friends
have approached Mr. Brooks on the
subject of becoming a candidate for
the place of congressman at large be.
fore the Republican convention next
year. He has. had assurance of su.p-
porz fronl divers sources, in various
parts of the entire stale; and especially
are the business and professional men
of his own city glad that at last he has
consented to the use of hls name in
connection with this nomination. They
feel that In him they have a candidate
whom they can present to the conven.
lion with pride and confidence.
Mr, Brooks has lived •in Colorado
Springs more than ten years, and is
well known at the bar. and in educa-
tional and business circles. He has
taken an active part in polities as a
Republican, and has always worked
with the regular organization. While
lie is a regular. It may be said timt he
is not the kind of man who would ever
wear any other man's collar, and that
he stands for clean and honest politics
ahvays.
The announcement of the candidacy
of Mr. Brooks was made a few days
shlce in the Denver Republican. Since
that time. the Evening Mail has inter.
viewed some of the prominent men of
that city concerning the matter, and
to-day some of these opinions are pre-
sented. They show in what regard
Mr. Brooks is held by his neighbors
and those who know hhn best, and out-
line very clearly his standing in ~his
community.
Mr. h'ving ttowbert said of Mr.
Brooks' candidacy:
"This nnnpuncement comes at an oP-
portune time. It is falr notlce to the
rest of the state that El Paso count:~
has a candidate for the place of con-
gressman at large next year. ~ffhis
county has been a Republican county
always, and has been generally recog-
nized as the staunchest Republican
county in the state. It has never had
a candidate for Congress since Colo-
rado beeame a state. It seems to me
that it is entirely proper that such a
candidate stmuld come forward now.
The county has always given loyal
support to the Republican candidates
for Congress in its district, and has
never asked for the nomination. I be-
lieve it will be generally acknowledged
that we have a right to ask for the
nomination for one of our men.
"As for Mr. Brooks pel,-sonally, he Is
a remarkably good candidate, tie is a
good lawyer, he has taken an active
part in politics, and he is in touch, as
few lawyers are. with the business in.
terests of the state. He is active and
energetic, a hard worker and a man of
great ability. I heartily indorse his
candidacy."
Mr. A. G. Sharp, cashier of the Ex-
change National Bank, spoke as fol-
lows:
"I can't speak from a polltlcal stand-
point, for I am no politician; but I can
I say something from the standpoint of
a nmn of business. Mr. Brooks is a
leading attorney, and I have had a
good deal of business both with him
and with his clients, lie is a shrewd
and careful business man. who con.
ducts his own affairs well; and he is
,levoted t.o the interests of his clients.
A good many of these have had deal-
ings with the bank, and I know that
Mr. Brooks looks after them closely.
Now. my idea is that a man who can
and does do that would make a good
member of Congress. I tilink he would
look after the interests of his constitu-
ents there as he looks after the inter-
ests of his clients here: and a very
large part of the duty of a congress-
man. as I understand it. is to attend
to business. He may make speeches
once tu a while, anti of course he
studies great Eublie questions and
knows something of politics; but after
all. a great deal of his work is really
business, and I think Mr. Brooks is ex-
ceptionally well qualified in this re-
spect to represent the state at Wash*
lngton. So far as abilffy |s concerned,
I regard hhn as the peer of the ablest
men in the state, and it need not be
said that lm is a nmn of absolute Integ-
rity and a fine sense of honor. I think
he would make one of the best repre-
sentatives In Congress Colorado has
ever had."
Hen. Ira tIarris, who was for six
years Judge of the District Court, says
of Mr. Brooks:
"You cannot say anything too good
about hhn. He is a first-rate candidate
in every sense of the word, H~ is a
strong Republican, and always has
been; he is not only in sympathy with
the party, but has been a worker, and
helped it actively to win the victories
it has won in this county. He Is ex-
ceptionally able, remarkably energetic,
and a man of culture and breadth of
view. We could not put forward a bet-
ter marl as the representative of El
Paso county In the race for the nomi-
nation: and I feel that this County, if
it should speak decidedly, would com-
mand the respect of the other counties
in this matter. It has been from time
immemorial one of the banner Repub-
lican counties of the state, and while
It has a candidate on the state ticket
occasionally, it has never pressed lts
claims for office. We should have an
advantage In presentlng to the state
convention the name of a man who IS
strong in this stronghold of Republi-
canism."
President Slocum, of Calorado Col-
lege, was enthusiastic in his reception
of the announcement, He said:
"All good citizens will take great.
satisfaction In the thought of sending
such a man as Mr. Brooks to Congress.
His education and experience have fit-
ted him for the position, and with his
keen know/edge of public affalr~ his
uprightness of character and strength
of moral purpose, he is Just the kind
of man that I should ta~e the greatest
pleasure in having represent our state {
at Washington. It is a very good
thing that such men as Mr. Brooks are
willing to undertake the burdens and
duties of the position."
FARMING MATTERS.
The Greatest Industry.
In bulletin No. 33 of the National
Live Stock convention, Secretary Mar-
tin magnifies the calling of stock rais-
ers in this country as follows:
During the past fifty years there
have been many conventions hell in
the United States representing the en-
tire industry of the wealth and prog-
ress. But the first great congress of
the twentieth century, the fifth annual
convention of the National Live Stock
Association, representing the entire in-
dustry lu this nation, which will as-
semble in Studebaker's theater, Chi-
cago, Illinois, on December 3d, will
represent as much enterprise ahd more
money than any gathering of men ever
before assembled on the globe.
In 1850 the total value of the live
stock of every state tn the Union was
less than $1,200,000,000; to-day It is $4,-
555,827.375. a sum incomprehensible to
the mind of man. In the year named
there were but 17.000,000 cattle, 21,-
723,220 sheep, 4.89#3,*050 horses and
mules. To-day the figures are ,50,602,.
414 cattle. 15,623,551 horses and mules
and 50,20~,000 sheep. Then the grade
of this stock, except In some sections
of the extreme East. was of the scrub
order, which grew and ran wild upon
the pastures. To-day no finer Mood
nor more lmproved methods can be
found than in the United States. The
magnitude of this industry can only be
comprehended by comparison. All
stock yard companies, commission ex-
changes and a large per cent. of the
freight Income of all transportation
companies being nearly incident to and
dependent upon the efforts of the Live
stock growers and feeders, which term
embraces avery farmer In the Union.
Live stock and cereals are the same
as cash in hand. Were the former
converted into cash it would take ev-
ery dollar in circtflation in the United
States, and then the commlss|on man
would have to borrow more than $2,-
225,000,000 from foreign banks to liqui-
date the bill. The cereal crop of the
country is valued at $2,025,116,545, yet
the llve stock is worth more fTmn all
the cereals, metals, cotton, lumber, su-
gar and tobacco combined. The live
stock men could buy the stock of every
national and private bank in the
United States and England, and then
have millions of money left.
They could own all the stock yards
and packing houses in the country and
have a surplus of more than a bilUon
dollars. They could establish a stock
yards company as large as the Union
Stock Yards and Transit Company of
Chicago in thirty-three cities, with a
capital of $30,000,000 each, and one in
every city In the Union as large as
Helena. Montana. each with a capital
of $14,220,000. They could build three
transcontinental railway lines from the
Atlantic to the Pacific and have left
$750,000,000 for a reserve fund. They
cotfld own every steel works and
smelter in America or Europe and have
a billion dollars left to ~urchase ore
with• They could control every oceanic
transportation company in the world
and have left a sufficient sum to run
them for ten years without taking in a
single dollar•
There are 8,000,000 of these noble-
men in the United States. If they
were to become so united upon political
matters as to vote as a unit they could
elect every officer in the nation from
the President to the mos~, humble back-
woods road overseer. ~here is abso-
lutely no limit to the pc~tdbilittes of
t~nese men if they should Collectively
divert their force and influence in any
direction.
This, the greatest industry of the
country, will hold its fifth annual con-
vention on the date and place already
stated. There will be several bills ap-
proved by them which the incoming
Congress will be asked In no uncertain
tones to pass• Every delegate, there-
fore, should attend every session com-
mencing at 9:30 a. m., and permit no
other affairs to interfere with this
duty. All railroads have made a round
trip rate of one fare, plus $2.
The citizens of Chicago are making
extensive preparations to entertain all
delegates and vis4tors, and cordially
invite all interested m be their guests
during the week of December 2d.
Sug~tr igeets In Color~do.
Three million dollars represents the
value of beet sugar produced In Colo-
rado during 1901. says the Denver Re-
.publlcan. The value and magnltude'of
this new industry to the state can
readily be seen when it Is |~emembered
that this total does not reckon In the
expenditure of money for beets and the
wages paid to employes• Again the
majority of owners of factories expect
to double the capaclty of their plants
next year. The result in a few years
is obvious. *
"The beet sugar industry will be a
close rival of mining in thls state,
without a doubt. If the present remark-
able rate of progress keeps up," said
C. S. Mercy to a Republlcan reporter.
"No one can appreciate the magnitude
of the thing unless he has seen, as I
saw Saturday, the unloading of thous-
ands of tons of beets at the factgry
"and the process which finally resoled
the beets into sugar.
"As near as I can learn, the approxi-
mate production of the four sugar beet
factories now in oi3peration in Colorado
will be 300.000 tons, divided as follows:
Loveland 7.000. Grand Junction 25,000,
Sugar City 125,000, Rocky Ford 75,000.
At five cents a pound, this represents
the value of this total as $3,000,000.
"It can clearly be seen what this
means to Colorado; how many hun-
dreds of thousands of dollars will be
