victed and sent to the renitentiary.
8 Tom Dennison, a gambler and powerful
political boss in the dive districts of
Omaha was his accomplice. He got the
diamonds, sold them and proceeded to
use his political influence and money to
secure Shercliffe's parole. The parole
was secured and Shercliffe was sent BY
the governor OF Iowa to live with Den
nison. Dennison sought to force his
charge into other deeds of crime, when
Shelcliffe fed to his brother In Mar

to prison. Finally Shercliffe turned

son as his accomplice and Dennison
was indicted in the Harrison county
court. When 1T became known that
the parole was secured thru political
influence and the use OF much money,
it was but natural that newspaper men
should search the records OF the gov
ernors office. This was done by re-
p0rqers from two Des Moines newspap-
ers friendly to Ex-Governor Shaw and
during the absenee Of Governor Cum

It is here that politics became in

such as to humiliate Mr.. Shaw the

Shaw says:

in the governors office would not have
been made public If the ex-governor

his appearance in Chicago and by the
calm, dispassionate way in which he
tore the New York platform to shreds.
He avoided any display of bitterness.
His attitude was rather that of just

and his ability to control the st. Louis

platform is no longer a matter of doubt.

BIGGER THAN HIS PARTY.


The full significance of the action Of
Mr. Bryan in holding meeting of his
own in Chicago and analysing the
platform adopted by the recent con-
vention in New York, as well as the
tremendous effect of his declarations
and the circumstances surrounding the
delivery of them, have become evident
to the people of the whole country, and
it Is now admitted on all hands that
the Nebraskan is, DIN a very real sense.
the idol of his party.
1t required no bands of red devils,
no committee or club to secure for Mr..
Bryan the largest audience OF the sea-
son in Chicago, and an audience that
was with him from start to finish of
his speech. Purposely he avoided APP
pearing under any other auspices than
his own Even he betrayed the ex-
pense of the hiring of the hall. 1t was
Bryan's meeting and Bryan's call to
the voters of his party.
Nor was the call In the nature of an
appeal. Rather it was summons
from great leader, whose suggest tons
are taken as orders which must and
ought to be obeyed
1t is idle to contend that Bryan Is
either dead or dying as a dominant
Sprce in the democratic party He was
never more powerful than now, as the
reception of this Chicago address has
shown. and he was never SO astute, as
was demonstrated by the manner OF

SENSATIONS.
Writing on the American thirst for
dangerous and sensational performan-
ces the Fort Dodge Messenger says
this is what the public demands for
what reasons? Sensations. Was II not
the same thirst for sensations that
drove the gladiators into the arena and
fed the christian martyrs to the hum
cry lions? We have advanced some
what but the thrill that it gives the
average American to see this boy of
II risk his neck twice a day Is OF ex-
actly the same nature as the sensa-
tons OF those old heather Romans.
Fort Dodge has had one lesson din the
matter OF dangerous feats. The people
who saw that young woman plunge to
her death last summer have no par
ticular fancy for such exhibitions in
the streets of this city at least. When
at the circus, it Is true that they are
made to believe that somehow these
performers bear a charmed life, that
what looks so easy and is done SO gaily
is after all not a heads or tails" flip
with death but the performers know
better.
1t is the same thirst for sensations
that drives the southern and some
northern mobs to burn negroes. They
have the excuse of crime, but the dm-
pulse that drives them is the old thirst
for blood, for the excitement of the
nerves that torture and suffering gave
to people in oiien times and to some
people now. We who are more civil
lied prefer to look on at mental tor
ture. Witness the crowds at any GRIM
inal trial. Think of the woman who
offered $1,000 If she might be allowed
to be present at the hanging of the car
bandits. This is to be hoped an untrue
report but the spirit that prompted the
wish in many mind to be present is
abroad in the land. Where it Will end
