BRYAN HUMBLED.

This must be an humiliating
hour for W. j. Bryan. prospec-
tive leader of his party in the
presidential campaign of 1908.
He stopped from the writing of
his highly entertaining and
scholarly foreign articles, a few
weeks ago, long enough to dip
into Illinois state politics and try
to unseat the boss of Illinois
democracy, Roger Sullivan, and
the result, as chronicled in the
news dispatches of yesterday, is
the most overwhelming defeat.
Bryan declared unequivocally
that unless the convention passed
a resolution calling for the
resignation of Sullivan from the
national com mittee, he did not
want its Endorsement for presi-
dent. In response, the conven-
ton laid the resolution intro
duced by Bryan's friends on the
table, and indorsed Bryan in
spite of his protests.
Without entering into the
merits Of the controversy be-.
tween Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Sulli-
van, it is probably we'll for Bryan
and the party that the former
has been defeated in his essayed
role Of state dictator.
Had he won in Illinois, what
would there be to prevent him

DIETZ HAS NO RIGHTS.

People who have followed the
various efforts made to capture
John Dietz will be interested in
the efforts of a Hayward, Wis,
abstractor, who has looked up
the records and finds that Dietz
has no legal rights to the dam
franchise on his land, the point
at issue between him and the
logging company.
The record shows that a state
franchise was granted in 1874 to
Daniel Shaw and associates,
authorizing them, to improve
Thornarple river for log driving
purposes. In 1877 Shaw pur-
chased the right to maintain a
dam on the land now owned by
Dietz. In 1882 Shaw's heirs con-
veyed to the Chippewa River I'm
provement and Log Driving com.
pany all their rights to main
tain a dam, food lands, etc. =
The land came into possession
of Dietz in 1900, but his deed, al
though it stated that there are
no reservations concerning a.
dam, did not give him the dam
rights, because the man who
gave him the deed did not have
them, they still rested in the
Chippewa company.
Dietz, undoubtedly, has been
fighting for what he considers
his legal rig hts, but if the Hay
ward abstractor is accurate, he
evidently was deceived in buying
the property, just as many a
man has bought land supposing
be held the mineral rights, and
found out later that they, had
been reserved. aa-.
