Willlam Jennings Pryaa spoke last night at the Chautauqua to an audience which was conserva- tively estimated as numbering about 1,500 people. The weather was very inclement, the rain having poured tor an hour just before the lecture, but as the opportunity is seldom ac- corded the people to hear such a dis- tinguished speaker, the elements were braved and the largest audi- ence ever gathered in the fine new Chautauqua auditorium was present ¢n this occasion. Mr. Bryan was gracefully intro- duced by Senator H. J. Drane, who touched on the achievements of the roted statesman and of the high re- gard in which he is held by the Americar people today.

KEY WEST WILL TRY FOR COMMISSION GOVERNMENT. Key West, Feb, 20. —The Board of ‘irade of this city has just started 2 whirlwind campaign for the adop- tion of a commission form of gov- ornment for Key West. A special primary has been called, and the people will express themselves one way or another, within thirty days. A few years ago the chamber of commerce agitated the subject some, but it quietly died out. The Board of Trade was asked to “father” the movement, and after lengthy con- sideration of the matter, they voted by a large majority to call for a pri- mary. As the Legislature meets in April, quick action was necessary, and Secretary Mathews of the Board Trade employed men to circulate i,.mumx among the voters calling jtor a special election. These peti- bearing the signatures of a large number of citizens, were pre- sented before the council by Secre- tary Mathews, who found, among the councilmen a pronounced oppo- sition to the movement. The coun- cil at length declared that, however much they wish to submit the ques- tion to the voters, they could not do 80, Inasmuch as the city was at this time unable to finance a special election. In order to save the situ- ation, Secretary Mathews addressed the council and stated if that body issued the call for an election, the Board of Trade would finance it. Ae- tion was postponed for three days, and in the meantime the Board of | tions, Trade met and enthusiastically in- dorsed the proposition offered the council by their secretary. At a later meeting the conncil recognized the petitions and issued a call for 8 special primary to get an expression from the people on the question of adopting the commission form of government. An electric light plant has beem assured in the near future for Chip- lay. -
