THERE has been a tempest in a tea
pot among certain prominent Demo
Gratis the past couple Of weeks Some
days ago a number of leading Demo
Gratis Of New York, with Perry Bel
mont at THEN head, arranged to have
a dinner on Jefierson's birthday, 1t
was the purpose to get the big men of
the party together, so Mr.. Belmont
sent an invitation to VIM. j. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan, in reply, asked Mr.. Bel
mont, who was an active gold Demo
crat in 1896, if he still held to the
views that made him oppose the reg
ular Democratic platform and candl-
dates during the last campaign. He
further intimated that unless Mr. Bel
mont and his friends have experienced
change Of heart he could not regard
them as genuine Democrats nor would
he attend their dinner. Mr.. Belmont
made a courteous but unsatisfactory
reply, so Mr.. Bryan has declined the
invitation, and Will, instead, be the
chief guest at a dinner on the same
date in New York which is to be got
ten up by the unalloyed free silver
men.
There is much diversity of opinion
as to Mr.. Bryan's wisdom in stirring
up further feeling in the party. For
our part, we think it would have been
better for him to have accepted the
olive branch. disregard for the par
ty should have been greater than his
personal ordinations to get even with
his former opponents. There is abso-
lutely no hope of Democratic victory
as long as the party leaders are so ex-
IRENE and unyielding in their views
and opinions. We prefer to yield a
bit on the silver question rather than
pursue a course that means certain
and continuous defeat.

A suit OF Interest,

A suit Of considerable interest was
filed In the dlstrlct court Saturday by
the First National Bank against l.. Il.
Williams who moved from south
Hutchinson TO Iowa a short time ago.
In thia petition the plaintiff alleges that
Just before leaving for the East, Will
llams came TO the bank with q check
for $2,sOO drawn by Williams on the
Citizens Bank payable TO W, M, Vogel
his father'in'law and by Mr.. Vogel In
dorsed back TO Williams. lie stated
that he had that amount OF money on
deposit with the Citizens Bank and
asked for q Trait forSthe amount and
was given one on New York Bank,
In due course Of business the check
went TO the Citizens bank and WAS re-
turned with the statement that VIII
liams had never had such amount or
any other amount OF money on deposit
there. On finding this out the Ma
tional Bank wired the New York Bank
not to honor the draft, but before this
Williams had cashed the draft ut u
bank in Layuga, Indiana. The plain
TIL then sent lawyer 10 Indiana TO
get settlement with the Indiana bank
which was an innocent purchaser, se-
curing repayment from Williams.
However the bank claims TO have been
to expense In the matter telegraphing,
attorneys fees etc. to the amount Of
s325.02 and to have been damaged TO
the amount Of 81, 900,
If the facts alleged in the petition
are true Williams has laid himself liza
BILE not only to an action for damages
but to criminal prosecution on serious
charges,
just what part Mr.. Vogels indorse.-
ment had or was intended to have we
do not know, but Mr. Vogel as We learn
Is considered an honest man and 1t was
probably an effort on Williams part to
make him liable for the check by bis
Endorsement.
