WITH THE NEWSPAPER MEN.
What Some of the Correspondents

Quite a number Of newspaper men are
here I'm advance of the National Democratic
convention. Among them are James Creel-

at the Bates. and Messrs. Samuel NJ Bur

Tribune. Herbert l.. Jones and f.. Holmes
of the Chicago Chronicle. c. J. Powers and
J. A. Corwin. of the Chicago Tribune, and
Harry l.. Brown. of the New York Herald
all of whom are stopping at the Denison.
Everything points. most OF the newspaper
representatives say, 10 one OF the most en-
thusiastic and memorable conventions in
the history OF the Union. East and West
there is an undercurrent of sound-money
sentiment that promises TO sweep the Boy
Orator before il and carry William Nc
Kinley into the White House. From their
personal observations they say that the sill
yer craze Is on the wane. Mr. creelman
accompanied the Bryan party TO Ne
braska after the Chicago conveE-
ton and was with him every
place where he spoke. Aside from the
demonstration arranged for the youthful
candidates Homecoming he observed

FROM BRYAN's STATE.
James 1. Rhea Says the Boy Orator
VIII Even Lose Nebraslxa.


VIII Even Lose Nebraska.
The first delegate from another State to
appear yesterday was James 1. Rhea, Of
Coleridge. Neb, former resident OF In
diana, who came thus early in order that
he might pay brief visit to his old home
in Martinsvlle.
while there was a disposition upon our
part in Nebraska" said Mr.. Rhea, ITO

mo. If the election were to be held
right now he might possibly do so. prob
ably would, but the sentiment has been
changing and If developments continue in
the line things are now going he will sure
ly lose the State. Last year the straight
out Democrats. as the Cleveland forces
of the State are called cast 10000 votes,
the Republicans 1900. the PopuIists $1,000
and the silver Democrats 1900. There are
silver Republicans in the State. but they
are about Offset by the middle-of -the-road
Populists, who VOW they will vote the
straight Republican ticket, rather than for
Bryan. While Governor Holcomb and Sem
ator Allen are playing hard for union OF
the silver forces, the local leaders of the
Populists. who want to cling TO the county
offices, are anxious TO maintain their party
organization above all things and they be-
lieve that the proper way TO do IL is TO re-
buke the national leaders who forced the
combination by voting for Mckinley. State
politics cuts a big figure in this fight and
the developments in our State politics have
not been favorable TO Bryan
Wherein does Bryan's strength lie In
the State?" was asked.
Chiefly among the men who want to
close out their realty specuationS upon an
inflated basis. Many OF our people have
been loaded up ever since 1878 with realty
that they have been carrying equities in

Haven't got it." said the negro.
Must have it, exclaimed the saloon
man, producing a revolver and pointing
il at the colorcd man.
Floyd acknowledged that he leveled the
gun at the man, but said he only did il as
Il joke and q bluff.
THAT is no way for a business man to
do" said his honor. Suppose he had
drawn pistol ana shot you? You cannot
