eRoAosipEs AGAINST PARKER
Many Democrats Feel That He Carries
Too Heavy . Load

WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Here in
the District Of Columbia, where no.
body can vote for president. there is a
bitter fractional fight raging within the
democratic organization, which has
representation in the national conven-
ton, although none at the polls. James
L. Norris, the national committeeman
from the district Is an avowed Cor
man man. while Hearst and his friends
are working assiduously to prevent in
structions for German or Parker. Sem
timent for German appears to be In the
ascendency, and one leader said today
that German should not be considered
out of the race for the nomination.
Judge Parker's close afflliation with
August Belmont and other Wall street
financial manipulators. so openly at
tested. is displeasing to many demo-
Gratis outside OF New York. This. 1t is
anticipated. will furnish material for
heavy broadsides against Parker. and
it is freely predicted by Bryan's friends
that If Parker should be nominated
Bryan undoubtedly would bolt the DEM
ocratic national convention with as
many delegates as ne could take with
him.

Last Evening at the
Opera House

THE Power Of Cartoon" as rem
dered by Homer Davenport in his lee
ture last night at the opera house be-
fore large and enthusiastic audience,
stamps the famous cartoonist as a
humorist Of no little note. His lecture
last night was no disappointment to
those who heard him and his dry wit
in telling of the life of his boyhood in
Silverton, Oregon, his advent into the
larger cities and his travels over the
country, were Of the first quality. Dur
ing his address he interspersed his
stories with cartoons of the subjects
spoken of, showing his wonderful skill
with the pencil. He was presented by
Hon. Miles S. Johnson who introduced
Mr.. Davenport as friend of his boy
hood days in Oregon. The Lewiston
Military band rendered choice music
for the occasion. Mesdames w. F..
Kettenbach, H. K. Barnett F. J. Bos-
ton and Miss Ely sung "My Old Ken
lucky Home" which was heartily ap-
plauded and encored. Mrs. Stacy pre-
sided at the plano.
After the address by Mr.. Davenport
there was a banquet given in his honor
by his Oregon friends in this city. Mr.
Davenport left this morning by stage
for Pomeroy to catch the o. r. & N
train for Pendleton where he Is 4
speak this evening. The cartoonl
drawn by Mr.. Davenport last evening
were presented to Professor Wrigh
and signed by Mr.. Davenport. With,
a snort time they will be placed o,
