VIM. Bryan says he will vote
the Democratic ticket, although
he does not favor Judge Parker,s $
views on the money question.
Parker remained silent until after
he was nominated, then declared
himself in favor Of the gold stand
ard. The Democrats cannot ever
hope to win this fall as their plat
form is flimsy, in fact they seem
to have no particular issue at all.
Parker is not the choice of the
majority OF the Democrats, who
believe that he is under the con-
troll OF the money powers. The

Davis from West Virginia is 81

The sheriff ofDoniphan county
said to an Independent represen-
tative:: Il hate to take Graves
back with me. We are like
brothers. We were raised to-
gether, we played together and
have spent years in business to-
gether. Graves is not a bad
man, but got to be a usher. He
was county treasurer for five
years and deputy county treas
urer for eight years. He was
county superintendent for one
year. He has a wife and three
fine children. He got into trou-
bic once before and was $4,000
short. He turned in his proper
ty and his bondsmen and friends
made good $4,000 and he got
out OF the scrape. But he will
not do it this time. He thought
no one would send after him.
He thoughtthe bondsmen would
fix things for him, but they
won't. He figures on a short
term in the penitentiary but i
think he will get a long sen
tence."
