Work for Democrats.
The returns from the various Jeffer-
sonian dinners show that the several
feasts did not do a great deal toward
promoting Democratic harmony. On the
contrary an incident occurred at one Of
the banquets which, 10 doubt, will tend
to widen instead of bridge the chasm
between the followers and supporters
of the Hon. William Jennings Bryan.
It was at the Morrisania Hall dinner
in New York, under the auspices of the
Tammany Hall general committee of the
Thirty-ffth Assembly district, where
there were gathered an assemblage OF
distinguished Empire State Democrats
The bomb was thrown by the Hon Frank
Campbell, chairman of the State central
committee. a former State officer, and a
close personal and political friend OF the
Hon David B. Hill. Mr.. Campbell di-
rectly charged Mr.. Bryan with Tespon-
sibiIty for the defeat of the Hon Bird
S. Coler for governor last fall.

MANY Hold Same Opinion.

This is exactly what a large number
of other Democrats-New York Demo
crats-thought and said. although the
features in the platform to which they
objected may not have been the ones to
which Mr. Bryan took exception. There
is 2 suspicion that Mr. Campbell made
these charges against Mr.. Bryan in be
half Of Mr. Hill in retaliation for the
attacks which the Nebraska leader has
made against the former Senator
Whatever measure Mr. Bryan's al
legged refusal to indorse the ticket may
have contributed to its defeat. it is prob
able that a disparaging remark which
Chairman Campbell made concerning the
farmers of the state did more TO elect
Governor Odeu than the reason which
he assigns. Mr.. CampbeiTs remark was
posted upon harms, fences. and bill
boards all over the rural sections OF the
state. and when it is remembered that
the cities gave large majoTities for
Coler New York rolling up the unprece-
dented majority of 123, 900 for him, and
that OdeWs vote in the upstate coun-
ties overcame this, il is reasonable 10
suppose that the farmers did resent
Campbeu's insult to them. and that II
was a big factor in bringing about the
defeat of the Democratic candidate.
Regardless of the real cause. what
ever il may have been for the defeat OF
CoIer Mr. CampbeIl's charge will prob
ably retard rather than promote Demo
cratic harmony.
