HECoMING DEMOCRATIC.
<t braskh and Other states want
Tarin Reform

NASlIINGToN, Dec. l1.-Mr. Bryan. oi
democrats who came into the house OF,
the first crest of the tidal wave that
swept over the west at the last congres
sonal election. He was asked TODAY
il there was any prospect of the demo-
Gratis making gains in the northwest.
"Our country" he replied, lis ripe for
the harvest. 1t offers great possibilities
for missionary work. For years our
people have believed i'll tariff reform AZ d
nave patiently waited for the republican
party to bring about the reformation de.
sired. In 1888 the legislature passed a
resolution demanding free lumber and
asserting that the tax on lumber cost
the people of Nebraska $500 900 per
wear. The movement of the republican
party toward higher protecti, II has dis
cuuragcd those who want lower tariff.
and they will seek relief elsewhere. In
lSSS President Harrison carried our
state by some 25,000 majority. In 1890
the democrats and Independents, both
opposing the Mckinley bill, had together
more than 90, 900 majority over the re-
puLlir,.ns. Son;- .se have dropped
back, but there still : ans large ma
jority in favor OF the democratic idea on
that question.
"W hat is true of Nebraska is to a GER
tain extent true of other northwestern
states. The democratic party is also
nearer to our people on the money ques-
ton than is the republican party. The
Mississippi valley is the future home OF
the democratic party. Young men are
going west, and it is among young men
that democratic principles are taking
root. Mr. ClarkSon reccntlv complained
that the sons OF republicans were bccom-
ing democrats. That is true We have
already carried Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin
and Michigan, and made large gains in
other states. Give us a lair show, and
we will win some western states that
will make us independent ot the "pivota al
states, as we have called them. There
is great and growing country beyond
the Mississippi that will soon be in the
democratic ranks to stay if the party
lives up to its present possibilities. -

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-Roger Q. Mills

practically impossible from the stand
point of Speaker Crisp.

MIR. Mills has played the part of AchiI-

temperament made it impossible for him
to control his anger over his defeat, and
he has taken no pains to conceal his dis
comhture On the contrary, he has i'm
proved every opportunity to make mani
test sulen and uncOmpromiSing attl-
tudc towards the administration of his
successful competitor. He began in the
caucus by peremptoriy refusing to offer
motion making Crisp's nomination
unanimous. He continued in the house
by declining to serve on the committee
appointed to wait upon the president
He was requested by Mr.. McMillin to
offer the resolutions usually presented by
the most conspicuous member OF the ma
iority but he refused to do so. Then he
emphasized his position by selecting
