DEMOCRATS WHO WILL DO TT

Other Pennsylvania Railroad
Democrats to Attempt to

Democrats in Delaware and especially
in the lower counties are getting the
Anti Bryan fever and there are signs of
the same malady in New Castle county.
Backed by the Pennsylvania railroad
element of the Democratic party { gold
bugs are laying plans to capture the
coming Democratic State convention.
The infection is spreading to such an
extent that the followers of William
Jennings Bryan are becoming alarmed.
The Democrats of Kent and Sussex
who favor the gold standard are actively
engaged in organizing themselves and
according to those on the inside are pre-
pairing to make swoop aud stampede
the convention. The silver men are
standing heplessly watching the manu-
facture of Delaware gold brick.
John Biggs, chairman of the State Cen
ira Committee, is pro oninent among the
gold men, az is T.. r. Cochran, Jr., and
Andrew G. Gray, who are working to
make the convention an anti-Bryan af-
fair.

The discovery of such we'll organic d

by surprise. They are and Lave been so

Both Parties in Search of Tempt
ing Bait TO Capture New
York State.
DEMOCRATS ARE IN THE DARK
Congressman Sherman, of New York
May be McKinley's Running
Mate---Is q Strong and
Well Equipped
Man.

Washington, April 13.--The Republi-
can candidate-makers, having Roosevelt,
Bliss and Woodroff disposed of as pos
sible candidates for the Vice-Presidency,
are now considering the name OF Repre-
sentative Sherman. of New York. They
have not decided that he is the man
they want, but are canvassing the ques
tion of his availability. Sherman is one
of the strongest and best equipped men
the party has in the House, and has the
advantage OF being popular in the EN-
pire State. 1t is understood that he did
not approve OF the Puerto Rican Tariff
bill, and at one time it was thought that
he might vote against the motion
of the Ways and Means Committee by
which the Senate amendments were con-
Cured in. Had he so voted he would
not be in the running for the Vice-Presi-
dency since the candidate will be chosen
by the same men who made and assed
that bill He voted with his party, how
ever, and made no open protest, If, in
deed, he opposed the bill. The Repub-
licans have no actual fear OF not being
able to carry New York at tie Presi-
dental election this fall, but, realizing
the importance Of doing so, they are dis
, posed to make assurance dOdbly sure by
putting popular New York man ON the
, ticket ii one who il available can he
found. Sherman Seems to be less in
! volved in local complications than others
in the State whose namss have been dis
cusse1, and there is d9cide opp Is
tion in A lministration circles to the se
lection OF Woodruff, who wants the nom
nation.
Among the Democrats who have little
faith in the prospects of their party in
the Middle West there is an acti ive
movement on foot to make Judge Parker,
Of New York, the Vice Presidential cam
ciiate with Bryan, in the hope that his
candidacy might turn the State, he hav-
i,g shown great popularity in New
York, though supporting the Bryan
Z ticket in ,6.4The best informed of the
[ Democratic leaders do not entertain
the idea of being able to carry New
York this fall under any cicum-
| stances.
Since the dealing with Puerto Rico has
called forth particularly loud protest
from those States, the Democrats look
Ylwith much greater hope upon their pros :
Nsp-cts in Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota
!. and Michigan, ana want to make those
Mates the particular battle ground OF
