Democratic Lines Fire At Chicago Platform Attack
Sen Robinson as permanent chairman of the Democratic National Convention assails the Republican Chicago platform, charging it with moneyed preconvention influence, anti-labor rhetoric, and failures to curb profiteering. He argues the Democratic record contrasts with GOP offers, predicting GOP defeat in Congress and nationwide reform under Democratic leadership. Women’s suffrage is touted as aiding ratification of the peace treaty and advancing international justice and peace.

Bluffton Traction Lines Seeks Passenger Fare Increase
A public hearing was held at Bluffton on a petition to raise passenger fares from 2 4-4 to 3 cents per mile by the Marion and Bluffton Traction Co. No opposition appeared. The company cited rising wages from 24 to 30 cents per hour, now up to 40-45 cents, and said depreciation funding remains inadequate. Also noted were bond interest payments and prior rate increases failing to match costs.
