DAY OBSERVED
Nebraska Democrats Commeino.
rate Jackson's Victory.
"What of Our Future ?" Title Of
Brilliant Address by De
ArMond of Missouri.

Omaha, Jan. i.--Neariy 500. demo.
Gratis OF Nebraska tonight celebrated
the s9th anniversary Of Andrew Jack
sons victory over the British at New
Orleans and incidentally the 18th an
nual banquet OF the Jacksonian Club OF
Nebraska. The secession was OF spec
.al significance TO Nebraska democ-
aey.
Congressman DeArmond OF Missouri
IN responding TO the toast. what OF
the Future?" said In part:
1T IL Il question Of the ages. and the
ages will repeat it until time shall be
no more, II Is the question Of ambi-
iion, OF hope. OF faith. OF love. of hate.
II charity, Of selhshaess, The ques-
tion Of great and small, OF good and
bad. Rrt, as assigned to me this even
ing. II may appropriately be treated
as question touching the outlook OF
our party.
Can the democratic party win the
coming national election7 Yes. win
the victory be ours? That is not so
easily answered for that depends upon
what he party will say and do when
II next convenes In national convention,
/ II 1t shali wisely address itself TO the
issues Of the day, asserting nothing
|offensively. apologizing for nothing,
and shall name for its nominees mer
who ought to be and therefore will ne
acceptable To its rank and file, II will
win. But IL In folly II repuidlates its
past-its recent PASTOR II It needlessly
antagonizes and drives away elements
which were not with II or which
left Il In It's recent past. the promise
Of the times and OF conditions will
prove delusive. and we shall go down to
defeat.
Il have no platform to suggest. no
candidates to commend to the exelus-
ion OF others.
II am one OF those who believe that
no man who did not support the ticket
In 80 or 1900 can be available for the
presidential nomination in 1904 The
reasons for this conclusion are so many
and so evident that any specification |
would he tlresome as we'll as useless. |
The issues win arouse the patriotic |
citizen to high pitch OF zeal and en-
crRy. We shall stand for the reforms
10 ardently desired by many 50 vital
to many. The country is ripe for
change. The republican party has
been triad, and surely has been found
wanting. sadly wanting.
Labor and capital bid fair to unite
IN support OF tne ueInocEhtc psarsT'
The platform should tell the world that
IN our party the criminal trusts shall
ind foe not 10 be appeased or di-
yerted. We should voice the senti-
Inent Of democracy and Of fairness for
i revision Of the tariff; not to destroy
but to save from destruction. Extrav-
lgance, so typical of modern republi-
,,inirm, should give place to democratic
economy, without which governments
become intolerable. The affairs OF
.hese United States should engage the
Dest consideration Of our Nations
,tltesmen and wild projects beyond
he seas should no longer absorb our
substance or undermine our noble in

The little town OF Kerns. wash, was
thrown into wild excitement today by
the mysterious death and burial OF q
young woman. The report was cir
culated that she had been buried alive
and the people of the entire country
were greatly excited.
While the officials OF the county have
declared that the woman came to her
death through natural causes. the ex-

ther investigation win be made.
Kerns is located about two miles
from woodland. The body Of the
young was taken to that town this
morning and buried at noon. With
the arrival OF the corpse there was
started sensational story to the eff
feet that she had met with foul play {.
Just where the story originated. or
the cause for it. could not be ascer-
tanned tonight, but It gained credence
and caused the widest excitement.
The people are so worked up over
the matter that an investigation was
demanded. and County Physician b..
E. Darnell and Sheriff Huntington
were SUMMONED.
Together the two physicians held a
