Gold Dem ocrats in Bry an's State VIII Lead
in the Revolt
OMAHA, Neb., July 21.-The gold
standard wing of the democratic party
in Nebraska is now somewhat unde-
cided as to what course to pursue in
the coming campaign. That they will
not support Bryan and free silver is
the only thing that is definitely de-
cided upon. just what form their
opposition will take, according to
Euclid Martin, the recognized lead
err among them, is as yet unde-
cided. No formal conferences have
yet been held, and none has been
called, but that some such a meeting
will be held in the near future is a GER
tainty. One of the things that is caus-
ing the delay is the conventions which
are to be held in St Louis this week.

The statement made q week ago that Platt

the Boss's plan is to have the convention during
the third week in March. and that his newest
idea Is 10 hold Il in Ncw-York City, apparently

4 discovery has been made that threatens to
have serious effect on the Iaincs liquor tax
bill in so far rs it relates to this city. By the
ancient charters OF New-YOrk it was provided
that the excise business in all its parts should he
under thc direction Of the Mayor. Aldermen and
commonalty of the city. But by the Rnines
bill the State assumes control Of the liquor
traffic and provision is made that the taxes col
lected shall be divided between the State and
the counties This. ii is claimed, is in conflict
with the charters referred to. which have been
declared valid by the courts. If the claim IS
sustained. II will be seen TO have an important
bearing on the proposed Raincs act.
