BRYAN AN ISSUE.
Supporters and Opponents of
the Silver Champion
Battling For Control of the
Party Organization
OF OHIO DEMOCRATS.
Gold Democrats Will Stay Out
of the Fight.
The Convention Will Declare
Strongly For Silver.

Dayton, o., Aug. 22.-Quite a number
of delegates are here for the Democratic
state convention which meets here to-
morrow and Wednesday. While the
convention does not assemble till We'd
nesday, the real contest comes tomor-
row at the district and committee meet
ings, when the new state central COM
mittee and other committees are Sc
lected. The feature of the convention
is the contest between the Bryan and
the anti-Bryan men for control of the
state organization, which will be direct
ly effective next year, when nomina-
tions are to be made for governor and
other state offices and indirectly in
1900, on the nomination for president.
Ex-Congressman Paul J. Sorg, who is
mentioned for the gubernatoriaI nom
ination next year, is cIassed as a Bryan
man, ex-Collector Joseph H. Dowling
is here as his manager. Chairman W.
w. Durbin, of the state central com
mittee, arrived early today and is CO.
operating with Bowling. Allen o.
Myers, George Karb, James Ross and
others, who were in charge of the last
campaign, are also cIassed as Bryan
men. Judge Allen SmaIey, who will
deliver the keynote speech as tenn
porary chairman of the convention, is
enthusiastic for Bryan.
The pronounced gold Democrats are
not cooperating in the convention. The
fighting is between those who support
ed Bryan and the convention will no
doubt declare strongly for free silver.
With William Bell, H. Q. DeKan, Lake
JONES' Thaddeus CrOmley and others
for secretary of state and many for
minor places there is no lack of candi-
dates but the contest over the Organiza-
ton and platform leaves the nomina-
tions in the back ground.
