BRYAN AND KERN.

we hoist to-day al the MESSEN-
GER mast head the names of
BRYAN and Kern. With all the
seriousness and honesty of pur-
pose that within us lies, we
recommend the readers of the
MESSENGER to vote for Bryan
and Kern rather than for Taft
and Sherman. Every man who
voted for Bryan in his former
campaigns feels that he did the
right thing, and thousands up
on thousands who did not vote
for him eight years ago feel
that he now stands upon plat
form that appeals to them, and
they will give him their earnest
support. In support of this
view. we call the attention Of
our readers to the attitude Of
the Philadelphia Record, which
twice refused its support to
Bryan, but is now giving good
reasons why the Democratic
nominees should be supported
at the coming election. The
Record is power in the States
of Pennsylvania. Delaware,
Maryland and New Jersey. 1t
rs thoroughly Independent and
fearless. 1t will show up the
insincerities of Republican
promises and claims, and is sure
TO WELD a great influence for
the Democratic nominees.
Already manyDemocrats who
voted for Palmer and Buckner
have proclaimed, now that the
silver issue is settled, that they
are going to vote for Bryan and
Kern. OF this number is Con-
troller Metz, of New York, a
gold Democrat John Dewitt
Warner, Palmer and Buckner
Chairman, of New York. He
says II shall do everything |
can this Fall for the election of
the Democratic ticket re-
gard the Democratic platform
as far superior to the Republi-
can platform.
OF course there are some Dem
ocrats who are still opposed to
Mr.. Bryan, but there are many
more Republicans, who will not
vote for Taft and Sherman than
there are Democrats who viii
not support the candidates of
their party. In fact, there is a
Republican revolution in Wis
consin, Indiana, Ohio and Min
nesota. In these States and
other Western States Mr. Bryan
is far stronger than we people
in the East can possibly con
ceive. In support of this state
ment, we refer you to the Balti-
more Sun of Monday, in which
Rev. John f. Quirk, of Ford
ham College says j: {" Everything
in the West except Cincinnati
is for Bryan. 5"
We sincerely believe it to be
the best interest of the great
majority of the American peo-
pie 10 elect the Democratic
nominees. That the Republican
party fears this will take place,
is evidenced by the way its
: beneficiaries are pouring money
into the campaign Golfers of
their party. Wall Street is al
so much concerned over the
popularity of Mr.. Bryan's nomi-
nation. And well it should be,
for he is the unremitting foe
of wrong. He is an honest,
Christian man, who will do his
whole duty to the people, re-
Qardless of Wall Street in
terests.
Keep your eye on Bryan and
Kern. The campaign has not
vet commenced. When it does,
the fur will fly, and all indica-

GRAND JURY BEGINS INQUIRY
Pickford Apartment Disaster Elk.
planned by Several Witnesses.
District Attorney Would Prove Re
sponSibiIity for Death of Men
by Collapse OF Building.

Following the verdict Of the coroner's
jury in the case of the collapse of the
Pickford apartment house. Twentieth and
z streets, northwest, on June 9, where two
workmen were killed. the investigation
by the grand jury was begun yesterday
morning. Assistant District Attorney
Charles II. Turner presented the case for
the government.
Some twenty witnesses were called 10
prove the manner in which the two work
men lost their lives. They testified as TO
the condition OF the building Immediate
.ly after the collapse. Several Of the ex-
ports who testified before Coroner New
tits jury were among those on the stand
They exhibited a specially prepared plan
of the building showing the exact con-
dition ar the time of the accident.
Four men We're held by the coroner's
jury as being responsible for the accident:
Snowden Ashford. building inspector OF
the District, for his approval Of the plans;
Thomas II. Pickford owner and builder.
for not having a competent superintend-
ent in charge Of the work; Forman l.
Blake, Of Barber & Ross. for improper
construction. and John F. Bayne. brick
contractor. for hasty construction ana
use OF poor materials.
The grand jury may eXonerate any or
all of the persons held responsible by the
coroner's jury. and ii may consider re-
sponsibiity Of other persons not held
by that body
Owing to the quantity Of testimony
which must Of necessity be brought into
court in a case of so technical nature.
III is expected finding will not be re-
turned for week, at least. 1t is the gen
eral opinion that the grand jury will
probe much deeper into the accident than
did the jury called by the coroner.
