But as They Agree on All Other Questions
Bryan Considers It U"just 10 Oppose
Him
(By the Associated Press.)

Columbus, Ohio, Sept. Wv. j. Bryan
was the guest of the Ohio State Board of
Agriculture, and this afternoon delivered
non-partisan address at the State far
grounds. John H. Clarke, of Cleveland,
endorsed by the Democratic State Con
vention, for United States Senator, spoke
from the same platform. Mr. Bryan left
late in the afternoon for Marion, Ohio,
where he addressed a Democratic meet
ing tonight.
While in Columbus, Mr.. Bryan gave out
statement relative to the endorsement
Of John II. Clarke for United States Sen
ator, in part as follows:
Il would have preferred the nomina-
ton of some one who had been active and
earnest in the support of all planks of
our platform. but the delegates who en-
dorsed the Kansas City platform also en-
dorsed Mr.. Clarke, and after talking with
him and listening to his speech last night,
am satisfied that his sympathies are
with the people in their fight against or
ganized wealth, and that if elected Sen
ator, he can be trusted to stand for the
reforms for which the Democratic party
is contending.
views on imperialism and the tariff are
sound and in line with Democratic prin-
ciples. His one difference is on one phase
of the money question-namely, metallic
money-and on this question, believe he
was grievously in error in 1896.
"But since that time the arguments
made in favor of a larger volume of
money have been indicated. Believing
as do that his sympathies are right,
shall trust to him to carry out his plat
form on all questions that come before
him rather than give encouragement TO
those who elect Republican Legislature,
and thus not only return Mr.. Hanna, but
prevent the enactment of needed legisla-
ton. On the more acute phases of the
money question, believe he will be found
in entire harmony with the Kansas City
platform Democrats. To oppose him be-
cause of his action in 1896, in spite OF
the fact that he helped us heartily in
1900, in spite of the fact that he has
supported johnson in all his reforms; in
spite of the fact that he is now helping
us on everything except one phase of
one question, and in spite of the fact
tina on that question l believe his sym
pathies will lead him to our side when
he thoroughly understands the subject
to oppose him l say, in spite of these
things, would be unreasonable and un-
Just"

sIIRs UP RUSSIAN SPORTS
Keene, the Kentucky Trainer, Suspended for
Alleged Doping--H His Phenomenal Success.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
st. Petersburg, Saturday, August 22.-
John oliver Keene, of Lexington, KY
trainer for the racing stable of NJ l..
Lazarev, has been suspended for year,
dating from August goth, for alleged use
of some unknown drug. He has won
seventy-nine races with his stable and
over 100000 during the last four or five
months. Keene and his friends say that
this is the only reason for the ruling
against him.
p Keene was trainer last year for Henry
De Bloch the millionaire of Warsaw, and
won $4,000 with a single horse named
Sirdar He has already exceeded this,
though the season is not yet over, with
NJ Lazarev's Irish Lad, a horse which
has won s56.500 and now holds all the
three year old records for Russia.
Keene's success was attributed by the
leading sporting journal of st. Petersburg
to wise training and good riding.
The rival stables, however, were UNI
willing to acknowledge that Keene had
won by superior training alone and had
for months been trying to prove case
of doping" against him and eventually
procured Keene's suspension for year.

"off year. in State politics. The cam
paign will be conducted by Chairman j,
K. P. Hall, of the Democratic State Com
mittee from the headquarters in this city.
The nominees for Auditor-General and

man of the convention, were members of
the last Legislature and voted against the
Grady Salus Libel bill, which will be one
of the principal issues in the campaign.
