section in which is located the claims of
Catlin Bros, from which phenomenal

Undeveioped claims are being sold to

Financing a Presidential

Everybody knows that Mr. Bryan, in
his contest for the presidency in 1896 and
1900 suffered from a lack OF the sinews
OF war. II needs no prophet to forotell
that although neither by congress nor by
the legislatures OF the more important
states have adequate precautions been
taken to prevent the improper us OF MON
ey at elections. the fat pocketbook will
play n relatively insignificant part in poll
tics this year and In 1905 As regards the
reputation OF tainted money Mr.. Bry-
an has taken time by the forelock He
has expressed n wish that the cost Of the
demonstration with which his home-com-
ing is TO be welcomed should be betrayed.
II possible, by dollar subscriptions: that
no contribution OF more than ffty-9alla.s
should be received; and that the names Of
the donors OF all sums exceeding five dol
lars should be published We do not hear
that the congress campaign committee Of
the Republican party proposes TO issue
a similar self denying ordinance. but it's
members. evidently, are not expecting an
avalanche OF pecuniary gifts such ms the
late eSnator Hanna was able 10 precipi-
tate, for they are said TO be relying main
ly on the proceeds OF their campaign book
for which the rank and file Of the organ
ization will be urged 10 disburse a dollar
copy. II is certain that no outpour of
donations from life-insurance companies
and national banks need be looked for
just now, or, for that matter. two years
hence. or course, however individual
manufacturers will still be at liberty to
evnce generosity. and we presume that
in the worst event the war-chest OF the
Republican party will be better furnished
than that OF It's Democratic opponent
Still. the prospect Is that the struggle for
the presidency I'm 1905 will be waged on
more even terms as regards the command
OF the lubricator needed for political ma
chlnery than has been the case Since lSj2
when, IL s asserted and believed. that
Mr.. Cleveland was actually better of I'm
this respect than his Republican compet-

vention for the selection OF the mayor
atty and the other municipal candidates
be held in the Sixth district court room
on Oct 16, and this was carried.
The first fight Of the meeting and real
test OF strength was precipitated over a
motion by Thomas J. Dorney 10 amend
the motion of Christopher w. o'Brien %
hold the Democratic -caucuses- -feF-eity,
congressional and state convention dele
gates on Sept. rs.
Dorney wanted them left TO the discre-
ton OF the chairman. While, OF course,
the chairman's discretion might be exer
cised 10 the satisfaction OF the majority
OF the committee. IL was recognized that
there was at least a probability OF its
not being so exercised: and the ames1-
ment was voted down as follows
Noes: Second ward-Healey. Donnelly,
Thornton. Toher and Kennedy; Fifth
ward-Canning, Cuddy and Cotton; Sixth
ward-Kerwick, O'Brien, Carroll. OHara

Seventh ward-Kelley; Eighth ward-Mc-
Govern: Ninth ward-Troy. Dorney ano
Tracey. Total-2l.
Mr. Wrinkles forgot TO change his vote
and is recorded against his own side.
IL was noticeable during the meeting
that the Dorney crowd lost heart almost
al the outset. and hardly made more
than a perfunctory sort Of fight after the
preliminary skrmish had showed that
they were hopelessly beaten.
"They have neither the heart nor the
brains that they seemed TO have last
year" said one OF their most energetic
opponents today.
kn echo OF the action OF the Demo
cratic state committee In reading Dor
ney out Of the party came when Chris
topher w O'Brien called the roll OF dele
gates that was furnished him by Chair
man O Neil lie failed TO call the names
OF Dorney and Tracy
Dornoy was on his feet Immediately IA
object. and was informed that his name
was not on the roll and that Chairman
o Neil had furnished the roll % the sec
retary
We'll explained that he had two lists
and had left the wrong one a home. but
Dorney couldn't understand why any list
in Chairman ONeils possession should
fail 20 contain his name
AZ for Tracy he represented district
that the board Of canvassers and regis
tration had dropped out Of hs ward; and
IL was difficult 10 explain how he could
vote at all.
