Ryan Heirs.

demurrer of the defendant in the case
of the heirs of Bridget Ryan versus

ago for $500 and for S109 reserve fund
also alleged to have been due.

1t would be in better taste for Bryan
TO wait until Judge Parker's letter of
acceptance has been made public, be-
fore giving out the impression that
the democratic candidate for president
will not be true to the platform. Judge
Parker's frank and manly statement
OF his views on the money question is
pretty good evidence that he would
not run on a platform that he disap-
cratic candidate agree that he is a
man of the highest sense of honor and
with hypocrisy or duplicity.

There are still many citizens of
sound judgment who believe that it
would be cheaper to sink a we'll on
the Thomas place to ascertain at what
depth an abundant flow of water could
be obtained than to hire a high priced
expert to inform us that plenty of
water may be found in Mill creek for
a gravity system. An underground
supply would be free from typhoid
fever germs, but as much cannot be
said of the Mill creek scheme, which
viii cost twice as much as the other

of granite defying the storm. 1t was
a crucial test of his courage and abil-
ity and he emerged from it more
strongly entrenched than ever in the
affections of the people. OF all the
noted orators there assembled he alone
could at all times hold the attention
of the delegates and spectators OF
all the great political leaders in the
convention, he alone was always recog-
nized with applause and given an
earnest and respectful hearing. In
the convention of 1896 a vast ma jority
of the delegates were in full sympathy
with his views and listened to and
cheered him because he was express
ing their sentiments more elouuentiy
and ably than they could do it them
selves. But in this convention at
least two-thirds of the delegates were
hostile to his ideas and n accord with
his would-be rival, Senator Hill of
New York. The stampeding of the
Chicago convention was as childs play
to securing recognition and forcing
concessions from the delegates assem-
bled at ST. Louis. The majority of
the convention had but one object in
view, the framing of a platform and
the selection Of a ticket satisfactory
to New York and the great financial
interests of the east. Mr.. Bryan also
had but one object, to maintain the
The convention simply wanted a WIN
ming platform. Mr.. Bryan wanted
democratic platform. A bitter clash
ensued, and the one man fighting for
principle triumphed over the host
fighting for the offices.
During all the exciting and bitter
debates of the convention Mr.. Bryan
was always calm, courteous and firm,
never losing his self-control. This
gave him an immense advantage over
his opponents who frequently lost their
tempers and resorted to personal abuse
instead of argument. He scored VIC
tory after victory before the committee
on resolutions, but yielded enough
points to completely demolish the
charge that he is a rule type
Of leader. Delegates who at the be-
ginning regarded him suspiciously as a
disturbing element, before the close
sought his advice and came to look
upon him as the only safe guide to
pilot the convention out of it's difficult
ties.
AS private in the democratic ranks
Mr.. Bryan rendered even greater SER
vice to his party at ST. Louis than
when he was it's standard bearer. He
came out of the convention stronger
than ever before the people. There

out at the machine shops of the South

morning. The victim was an employe
OF the company. His untimely death
was brought about in q singular man
ner. The Bee gives the following
particulars: Beskeen was sitting on the
axle of an oil car, screwing up some
bolts. A switch engine was moving
some cars on the track next to the one
under which Beskeen was working. A
small block of wood was standing on
end beside the track, and caught on
the journal box of the second car from
the engine. The block acted as a lever
and threw the rear wheels of the car
off the track. This was unnoticed. and
the car struck the oil car under which
Beskeen was working. 1t started the
oil car in motion, knocking it off the
stands upon which it had been placed
and dragging Beskeen to death beneath
the wheels. The whole affair happen
ed so quickly that nobody realized
what had been done, until some of Bes-
keen's companions looked under the
car, only to find him dead. Beskeen
was a young man. about 20 years of
age. He was a native of Kern county.
California. He leaves mother, three
