BRYAN SPRINGS A SURPRISE.
Would-Be Party ReOrgnizers Find
That They Have Been Forestalled
Trusts to be the Issue.

New YORK, Feb. 13.-Promlnent
Democrats in this city who have re-
Gently corresponded with Senator
Jones and national leaders of the
Democratic party to suggest a re.
organization on a new line with new
policy, it is stated, have been sur
prised to find themselves anticipated,
They discovered that Mr.. Bryan was
weeks ahead of them and had already
outlined plan of campaign for 1904
In this he will have the aid of Senator
Jones and other members Of the ma
tional committee.
The paramount issue, it is said by
those who have been in correspond
ence with Jones, is to be war against
the trusts. Jones, it is asserted
is to introduce a sweeping antitrust
bill In the Senate as soon as the meas
ure can be prepared.
This measure will have the support
Of Senators Tillman, Bailey, Daniel
and other Bryanites and Bryan is tC
advocate 1t in the ConmOner, 1t is
believed Bryan has a mortgage on the
nomination for president in 1904
Local gold Democrats are hopeless SC
far as reorganization of the party Is
concerned, Party leaders in the west
and south have not responded with
any enthusiasm to suggestions thrown
out by them.

'In the winter of 1898 and 1899 l was

Hewett, prominent druggist of Win

was two bottles of Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. 1t broke up the cold

WE still see something in the news
papers about "Gold" Democrats,
"Silver" Democrats, cleveland
Democrats, etc., etc. Until we have
Democrats without qualification, OF
trimmings, or adjectives, the party
viii continue in the minority. Every
Democrat should do away with every
qualification. Just the word "Demo-
crat, pure and simple, surely conveys
an idea of which any man might be
proud. A Democrat should stand fol
Democracy. Every Democrat should
stand for his party and his ticket. In
no other way will the grand old Dem
