Lincoln, Neb., Nov 3.-Facing the
largest crowd that has gathered for a
political meeting in this city during
the present campaign, William j. Bry-
an addressed his fello w townsmen and
answered a speech made in Lincoln sew
eral weeks ago by United States Sena-
Mr., Bryan "a dreamer,'' and declared
that the Nebraska leader, had been
dreaming while Roosevelt was doing
things. Mr.. Bryan said in part:
80 L regard it as compliment to be
termed a dreamer by Senator Beveridge.
A short time afterwards Governor Cum
minis of Iowa called me dreamer.
Then I sat up and took notice. In but
a short time Speaker Cannon termed
me a dreamer, and then thought there
must be something in it. Finally, Gov
ernor Hanley Of Indiana repeated the
same thing. This was too much. I
might be able to defend myself if only
Senator Beverage had made the asser-
declared me a dreamer, / concluded to
plead guilty.
Believes in Some Dreams.
Mr.. Bryan then compared the dreams
Of Jefferson and Hamilton, declaring
that he believed in dreamers like JEFF
ferson, who saw the coming of a ma
tion in which the people should rule.
Referring to President Roosevelt, Mr..
Bryan said: t:The president has done
well, considering his environments.
However, his environments have been
the worst good man ever had. He is
standing alone. Whenever he wants
to take an advanced stand, his advis-

furnishing university students with free

the story as false.

Upstate Situation Puzzling,

The situation upstate gives the re-
publicans more concern than at any
time since the civil war. That Hearst
has gotten into the labor vote there
can be no question. His propaganda
seems to have hypnotized the man who
works at a trade. It is true, however,
that thousands Of those who have
gathered where Hearst has spoken are
not able to help, Of recent years the
interior counties have been filling up
with foreigners, not many of whom
have prepared for the duties of eiti-
zenship. 49,. - 49,, =.
The situation upstate also has been
disturbed by many fierce fractional
fights between local repul lean leaders.
None of them concede the existence of
any master. except the president. This
was shown when they : nominated
Charles p. Hughes at the president s.

Another Tammany Error.
Tammany hall finds itself in pecu-
liar position this year with the pros
pect OF having it's candidates for the
senate, assembly and congress opposed
IN every district by independence
league candidates.. It did not exert
itself to get out the registration. Now
that most of it's differences with the
Hearst organization have been fixed up
1T sees that hundreds of votes that it
might easily have controlled are not
registered. On the other hand the New
York country districts in which repub-
Leans are more numerous the registra-
ton is in excess of the greatest hopes
of the republican leaders,,
This augers well for Hughes. In
the borough Of Brooklyn which has ap-
Proximately 1907 900 votes, a, situation
is presented unlike any since it became
part of greater New York. The dem
ocratic organization led by Senator Nc
Carren is working theoretically. This
organization in straight party con-
test is good for $4,000 votes that it
can swing and these will 60 for
Hughes. -: = y
Brooklyn Seeks Revenge.
: Outside of this survey of division of
votes everything is problematical It
is a fact that Hearst has treated his
other allies in Brooklyn with less than
scant courtesy. They won the county
for him last year, and with the offices
they captured they hoped to build up
a strong Independence league. Hearst S
stand shows them that he didn't have
any sympathy with such movement.
They are now bent on revenge. -.
Municipal ownership helped to sweep
Brooklyn for Hearst last year. There
are hundreds who still believe in that,
but this year they cannot get Hearst to
say word about municipal ownership.
Brooklyn always has shown an indie.
pendence that, no other voting commun-
ity in this state has shown. AS a.
rule it has been against unworthy can
dldates, this tendency having become
more marked of recent years.
There is a possibility of landslide
for, Hughes in Brooklyn, whereas the
best. Hearst can expect would be a
small plurality. -, :.

Clemenceau's Experiment Attracts
Attention of All Interested n
in Capital Punishment.
BY W. W. Jermane. Colorado Building,

a-sr- -AH T.
Washington, Nov. 3.-Under the pc
culiar form of government prevailing
in the United States, it would, Of
course, be impossible for President
Roosevelt's cabinet to initiate the
French cabinet and order the intro
duction Of bill in congress provid-
ing for the abolition of the death PEN
atty. Here all criminal law enforce
ment, or nearly all Of it, is in the
hands of the several states, which sact
independently of each other. In some
the death penalty has been abolished,
in Others abolished and afterwards re-
established, and in the great majority
it is! in full force, and probably will
continue to be for many years to come.
1t is the understanding in Washing
ton that the French legislative body
will, at its coming session, enact the
cabinet recommendation into law, and
then capital punishment in France will
cease. Only a few months ago the
guillotine, the terrible instrument by
which for. more than a century death
has been inflicted on French criminals,
was abandoned. Parliament had re-
FUSED to make an appropriation for
the public executioner. -.
Students of European affairs in this
city note that advanced political SEN
timent Of France for many years has
been bitterly opposed to the death PEN
atty for any crime. NJ. Clemenceau,
the new premier, is a representative
of this advanced sentiment, and I'M
doubtedly the action of the cabinet is
due to his will. - -
Once Abolished In Minnesota.
Supporting the politicians, there is in
France, as in the United States, hu-
manitarian element which objects to
capital punishment on lofty, if not
very practical, grounds, but this .ele-
ment unassisted would not have been
able to work the recent change.
In this country these humanitarian
forces have for years been arrayed
against the extreme penalty of the
law, and at times they have exercised
enough influence to control the action
Of entire states. Minnesota and Kan
sas, not to cite other instances, are
cases in point. :.
Previous to the Mortified bank rob-
berry and murder, by the Younger and
James gangs, a generation ago, CAPT.
tai punishment in Minnesota was abol-
ished. The guilty parties in this raid
were. promptly captured, but under the
law the most that could be done to
them was to sentence them to i'm
prisonment for life, which was done.
This situation so infamed public opin-
ion that the legislature, at its next ses-
sion, re-established the death penalty.

A EAR REACHING RESULT.

The great offyear victory Of the
Republicans in West Virginia on Tues.
day emphasizes anew the fact that
this State is a rock.ribbed, true blue
Republican State. Old Democratic
strongholds show that the party is
fast losing what little strength 1t hal
remaining. Not a single county in
the State on Tuesday gave a Demo.
cratic majority of 1000. Jefferson and
Hampshire, the banner counties, fell
to 700 and 500, respectively. while
Randolph, Pendleton and Hardy show.
ed tremendous slumps. The result
shows that Democracy is forever
doomed in West Virginia. The Repub-
iican majorities will continue to grow
larger instead of smaller until within
few years we can have enrolled 10
our credit round 100000 majority
in this State. It would be no surprise
10 see majority Of $4,000 in this
State two years from now. The Dem.
ocrats have no more show in West
Virginia than Republicans, have in
Texas or Mississippi. 1t has taken
twelve years to demonstrate this fact
fully, but an offyear majority of 10000
on last Tuesday shows that 1t was no
accident that West Virginia has been
steadily Republican at every election
since 1894 and that the maiorities have
increased with each succeeding year.
Republican policies are popular in
West Virginia and II is fortunate for
the State that they are.

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION:
NEW Work POLITICS.

The terms Democrat and Republic
can seem to be fast losing their iden.
tity ia New York. At the present rate,
they will soon become obsolete and
the terms Radical and Conservative
lie substituted IN their stead. The
Conservatives defeated VIM. ]. Bryan
IN 1895 and 1900 and the Radical
Democrats refused to support Parker
in 1904. Again, on Tuesday, the line
mp was Radicals against Conservatives
and VIM. r. Hearst went down because
Of the Conservative vote. While Radi.
gcalism is dividing the Republican
forces in the Nation at large TO some
extent, as results show, 1t has rent
The Democratic party in twain, divld.
ing its members into hostile and hit
Ter camps. And worst Of all, so far
as Democracy is concerned, Radical
ism Is not popular in the Democratic
Solid South. Bryan and Hearst have
been losing ground steadily in the
South for some time. Since Mr.. Bryan
made his Madison Square Garden
speech advocating the government
ownership Of railroads, his star has
been reduced in brilliancy to one Of
the third or fourth magnitude and
Democracy has been looking for n
new Moses. Some thought he had
been found when Hearst entered the
race for Governor of New York. Not
s0y however. Hearst has failed and
had it not been for thousands and
Thousands Of Democratic votes given
TO him simply because he was on the
Democratic ticket and not because
they believed in Hearst's radical
ideas, his defeat would have been over

STANTZ SHOOTING Is
STILL A MYSTERY
POMONA OFFICERS ARE IN DOUBT
ABOUT AFFAIR
Now Believed Man May Have Shot
Himself After Quarrel With Wife,
Physicians Hope to Save Hotel
Proprletor's Life

The shooting of Homer Stantz, pro-
prietor of the Pacific hotel at Pomona,
Wednesday night, is still shrouded In
mystery. In fact the authorities are
now divided in their opinion as to
whether Stantz inflicted the wound him
self, received 1t during a quarrel with
his wife by the accidental discharge
of the revolver. or was shot, as at first
reported, by Mrs. Stantz.
1t is now said by guests of the hotel
that Mr.. and Mrs. Stantz had been
quarreling for an hour preceding the
shooting and that Stantz was in ter
rible temper The beating he is al
legged to have given his wife, together
with the injury inflicted by choking the
woman, is thought to have been re-
sponsible for the fainting spell which
rendered her unconscious.
At the present time Stantz is resting
easily and the physicians In attendance
consider his chances for recovery to be
better than at any time since the
tragedy.
AS far as known neither Stantz nor
his wife has made statement In re-
gard TO the affair which will throw
any further light on the incident. Pub
