SAYS BRYAN CAN'T AFFORD
TO TAKE NOMINATION.
IF WHAT He SAYS IS SO
National Committeeman Insists That
the Leaders Name Is Being TAX
en- in Vain by Wire PullerB.

Chicago, Aug. l5.---National Com
mitteeman Roger C. Sullivan gave
out today a statement which he has
prepared and mailed broadcast in
Illinois in reply to William ]. Bry-
ans demand that he resign from the
national committee aud his subse-
quent assertion that his opposition
to Sullivan was prompted solely BY
his belief that "Roger Sullivan and
John P. Hopkins had deliberately rob-
bed the democratic party Of Illinois
Of their political rights"
Sullivan, in his rejoinder, declines
to concede to Bryan the right to ques-
tion his democracy or his membership
in the national committee.
"The Judgment as to my demoe-
racy," he says, "rests with the dem
ocrats Of the district in which live.
My title to membership in the na-
tional committee has been conferred
and confirmed by higher authority
than Bryan"
Continuing, Sullivan says: "Bryan
may have written the letters in which
my resignation or removal was advis-
ed, although the channel through
which the letters have come throw
doubt ON their authenticity."
The purpose Of the demand made
by Bryan, Sullivan asserts to be TO
create new factional strife in place
Of the factionalism that has nsces-
sarily disappeared.
Actually" he declares, ''this de-
mand emanates from two men, Mil
lard Fillmore Dunlap and Owen P.
Thompson, Of jacksonville, Fla. By
misuse Of Bryan . name and popular
ity, they hope to stir up enough dis
cord at Peoria to enable them to pose
as leaders and as representatives Of
Bryan.
"In the letters attributed TO Bryan
there i this plain statement: Sui
Ivan WAS selected st national COM
mitteeman by delegates who were
not chosen by the convention II
this statement is Bryan's then he per-
sists in the contention that was de-
clared BY the last democratic national
convention to be misrepresentation.
He cannot in fairness maintain this
position. II is true that the seats Of
several of these delegates we're con-
tested. But these contests were not
decided by fraud and Bryan knows
it. Does Bryan deny authority to the
democratic national conventioni l
can hardly believe it. The national
convention, by a vote Of CAT TO 300
confirmed the right of the legal Him
ois delegates to their seats. Those
delegates elected me national COM
mitteeman by vote of 40 to s. The
national convention again confirmed
that action. To allege fraud against
my right to seat in the national
committee is to indict the last ma
tional convention and its leaders for
compounding felony. Can even Bry-
an sincerely and honestly hope to
do thisi He cannot if he expects to
accept the presidential nomination
two years hence, for such nomination
must come from those men have
named and their associates. No man,
not even Bryan, can afford to accept
any nomination, much less the nomin-
alton for the presidency, at the hands
of men whom he believes to be abet-
tors Of "high crimes and misdemean-
ors, and perpetrators of fraud"

II. c. Cusey, of the United States

cipates that five times as many new
applications will be heard as the mum.
Der Of old cases on file.
This ratio prevailed at Bartles-

throughout the itinerary.

Mr.. Cusey is old In the Indian

experience in the two territories and
in other Indian reservations.
He offers a suggestion that when
the senate Indian commission

concerted action be taken here with
reference to the removal Of restric-
tions. He says if a united petition
for the removal Of restrictions thus
showing to the senatorial commission
that such action is unanimously want

the next session Of congress and let
down all bars now impeding the pro-
gress of this section Of the new state.

ENGINEER KILLED.
Hurled to Death in Wreck at Cass
Lake Yards Yesterday.

Engineer Jack Flaherty, of
the Great Northern, was hurled
to instant death at an early hour yes
terday morning at the east end of the
Cass Lake yards, and his fireman was
quite seriously injured, but will re-
cover. Flaherty was driving the en-
CINE on the train leaving that city for
Duluth at 9:25 last evening having
got on at Cass Lake where the en-.
sineers,. change. He was pulling out
of Cass Lake with full head. of steam
on, and the train had just about
reached full speed when the engine
crashed into two stray cars in the
middle of the tressle that spans the
lake at that place. One car was load
ed with lumber and the other will,
feed. The impact was terrific, the
cars being reduced to kindling wood
and the contents dumped into the lake.
Flaherty was hurled through the
cab window to some logs frozen in
the ice below, and was instantly kill
ed, his remains being badly mutilated.
The fireman miraculously escaped
with few serious bruises. !. No one
else on the train was hurt seriously
though the sudden stop of the train
threw several people from their seats
and bruised them up slightly.
The train was taken from this city
by Conductor Miller and that he with
his passengers escaped is little less
than a miracle. The trestle is about
20 feet high and had the train not
remained ON the tracks it was almost
certain death for every one aboard.
The, engine is total wreck, the front
end having been crushed in as though
it had been paper box, and the rear
end was telescoped by the tender.
A few minutes after the wreck oc-
Cured the train coming this way from
Duluth was due, and the flagmen
barely got down the track far enough
to flag it in time to prevent another
horror

John G. Lund Wants to Head Republi.

Duluth, April 11.-John g. Lund.
member of the last house of repre-
sentatives, and well known land
dealer of the Twin Cities, has an
nOunced himself candidate for gov

lines.
Mr.. Lund was a prominent member
of the house, and during the last ses-
sion of the legislature 1t was an
nOunced that he would be candidate
for governor this year, but. as nothing
has been said regarding the matter
since that time 1t was taken for

entertain. Any such thoughts as.

BASE BALL TEAM
An ASSURED
FACT
Fastest Team in the History of
the City Will Be As
sembIed.

Grand Forks will have baseball this
season. Not only that. but 1t will have
the fastest team the city has ever
possessed. To quote the language OF
one of the men who have been working
SO indefatigably for the team, ut will
make former baseball in this city look
like thirty cents"
But while the best team in the his
tory of the city is assured. it does not
mean that there is nothing for the
citizens to do. They must be liberal
in their aid financially. The commit
tee will call upon the citizens probably
tomorrow and it is hoped that the.
splendid work done by those who have
heretofore borne the burden will be-
appreciated and rewarded with liberal
donations.
w. H. Mcneil will be manager of the
team, and tomorrow will ask for
leave of absence SO as TO devote his
entire time to the work. He is EN-
phatically the best man that could
have been found. He practices base
ball work as he does religion. He
knows every player in the country and
has his record at his finger tips
The players have not all been sign
ed as yet, and for this reason the
names are not given out. but the team
is practically selected. Leach. who
played last year. will probably be the,
only old player returned. The others
will be the best that can be procured.
and the people of Grand Forks are as
sured that they will have the best
series Of exhibition ball ever PLAYED
in the city.
The uniforms will. be brown with
white trimmings. The players will be
here in week to ten DAYS, probable.
and series of preliminary games in
being arranged with a number OF
teams, which will pu. TIE team in first
class shape SO that the members win
be in perfect form when the season
opens May 10.
A gentleman who knows whereof
he speaks is authority for the state
ment that splendid park will be in
readiness when the season opens. An
option is now held ON site which viii
be easily accessible to the city If the
present plans are carried out. The
park will be equipped in the very best
manner and the public will not have
single thing left undone to make the
season one worthy Of its very best
patronage.

library. 1t was found, however. that
a building costing that amount would
be only about large enough to accom-
modate the present library, and in
few years would be far too small. To
this end 1t was decided that some pro-
vision should be made for adding
probably $4,000 or $4,000 to the
Carnegie gift SO that library amply
large enough for the future could be
built. However, this does not affect
the former donation, unless Mr.. Car
negie should decide to increase the
amount himself. The plans for the
building will have to be submitted to
him before the building is constructed
The board found that it was neces-
sary to change the plans somewhat in
reference to the repairs to the old
building, and for this purpose post
poned action on the matter until the
changes could be arranged.
