friends OF that gentleman in
their demand that he be recOg-
nized as the leader of the Demo
cratic party and it's next candi-
date for the presidency two years
in advance of the meeting Of the
convention. Those who knew
the Nebraskan were confident
that if there was an improper
motive back of this movement it
would meet with no encourage
ment from the Great COmmOner.
There we're two ideas which Sug-
gested themselves to those whose
suspicious were aroused by the
somewhat extraordinary conduct
of certain men in the party who
had always stood for the predomi-
nance of the dollar over the
man-One that the hope was en-
tertained that Mr.. Bryan, for his
own advancement, might be in
duced to become Il reactiOnist and
help undo the work that Presi-
dent Roosevelt had achieved in
the direction of the lines pre-
viously laid down by the Ne
braSkan: the other that Mr..
Bryan vas to be used by the
selfish wing of the party, which
desires the domination of New
York in all affairs of the party.
to check the growing strength of
Mr.. Hearst in that State, and
when he had succeeded to be
cast aside for some safe and
sane'' representative of corporate
wealth of the Empire State.
Which of these purposes, if
either, was the actuating one can
not be said, but whatever the OBJ
lect was it has been defeated, as
might have been expected, by
the franknesS and honesty of the
Nebraskan. In his address at
New York he was not attempt
ing to play for a nomination, nor
was he endeavoring to please
his newly-acquired friends. He
spoke what God gave him to
speak, and his utterance was as
bold as has been his won't. Mem
bers of his party may disagree
with him on vital issues touched
upon in that speech, but every
true friend of the great orator
will be glad to know that lauda-
ton has not spoiled him, and that
temptations held alluringly be-
fore his eyes have not caused
him to depart from his old-time
candor and patriotism. When
some of his pretended friends
were saying that his travels had
broadened his mind. they were
hoping that his mind had become
narrowed, and they meant what
they hoped. They have found,
however, that the Nebraskan is
progressive, not reactionary, in
his habits of thought. and some
of them are abusing him for his
candor.
There is nothing in the New
York speech of Nh Bryan which
indicates anything beyond a nat
ural development of the princi-
pies which have governed his
public utterances since he first
became a national figure in poll
tics. He has gone a little further
in respect of the government
ownership of railroads than hith-
erto, it is true, but he has laid
down no radical policy to be fol-
lowed. He saw with misgiving,
perhaps, as did others, the fail
ure of the fight for proper con-
troll of the roads in the Senate

through the section, halted at Mr.,
Burgess to spend the night. He was
assigned to room adjoining the

Watty's depredations.

of which represents first prize in an
athletic contest won by the wearer's

a formidable task for the jeweler who
got it up, owing to the fact that the
fastening together of the 16 medals
had to be done with unusual care,
since the liberal use OF enamel made

who wore the belt was of the opinion
that she had the only thing of the

Athletic club had similar adornment
made for his fiancee.
