THE DEMOCRATIC CENTRAL COM

THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL con-
VENTION.

One of the most important Demo-
cratic Conventions which has assem-
bled in many years will be held at Den
yer, Col, on July 7th next. This
Convention will name the candidate of
the Democratic party for the high
office of President of the United
States. The Convention is of more
than ordinary interest in view of the
fact, that an opportunity is now before
the party for successful campaign.
provided there is no mistake in the
man who will be selected as
the candidate. The Democrats all
over the country are now discussing
this question, and it is most important
that they should do so.
That there is wide difference of
opinion among us is not a matter of
surprise. There are a number Of men
in the Democratic party who are we'll
qualified for the Presidency. But it
is essential that the man who is
chosen to be the candidate shall not
only be qualified for the office, but he
must also be an available man. That
is, he must be a man whose candidacy
will inspire tie confidence of the party
throughout the country, and give us
the chance of winning the election.
Prominent among the names men
toned is that of Mr. Bryan. While
we have great respect for Mr.. Bryans
ability, and believe him qualified for
the office, we do not think he is, at
this time, the most available man who
could be named. Mr.. Bryan and his
friends seem a little intolerant of any
opposition to his candidacy, but they
must remember that he has already
Leen defeated twice before the people
Of the country, and these defeats
would, we think, seriously handicap
;ry third attempt to elect him. More
tE;n that, some of his views, to which
lie holds on with great pertinacity
are not accepted by large number
of Democrats of the country.
There are numbers of Democrats
who cannot be brought to the support
of Mr.. Bryan. And while some of his
enthusiastic supporters would think
this absolutely inexcusable, we must.
as a party, face the facts, and not
allow a good opportunity for success
to be thrown away by mere sentimental
considerations.
Among the men whose names are
being considered and who would, we
think be available, are Gray, of Della
ware. Johnson, of Minnesota, Harmon,
o. O.lio. Daniel, of Virginia, and Cul-
berson, Of Texas. If either of these
gentlemen should be nominated, on
the straight Democratic platform, we
think the Democratic party could
carry the country
The first plank in the platform
should declare that the Constitution is
the supreme law of the land, and thai
any attempt to change it by judicial
construction or by any other process
of political juggling, is rank heresy
and should be stamped out by the
American people.

MILLIONAIRE AND
ARTIST MARRIED

Chronicle-Miss Alma de Bretteville,
accomplished young artist of this city,
and Adolph Spreckels, the millionaire,
were welded more than month ago
in Philadelphia at the home of the
bride s aunt, but it was only yester-
day that news of the marriage was
learned, so carefully had the secret
been guarded 1t now develops that
Miss de Bretteville and Spreekels have
been engaged for more than five years,
during which time she has entertained
her fiance at the de Bretteville home at
1924 Francisco street.
The bride has been famed for her
beauty in this city for several years,
as well as for her accomplishments and
talents. She is an accomplished plan
iste and talented artist, yet she has
never been known as a society woman,
preferring to live quietly with her
parents. brother and sister in their Sc
Guided home.
Adolph Spreckels has been known for
many years as a confirmed bachelor, so
much so that members of his own fam
lily doubted the report that he was
married. 1t seems now that he has not
entertained the idea of remaining a
bachelor for more than FIVE years or
since the time he became engaged to
the young artist.
The de Bretteville family is very
noble one, and counts among its con-
nections some of the bluest hood in
Europe. An ancestor Of the de Brette-
villes fought as a general under Naro-
leon, while a cousin of the de BRETT
Vile girls is now engaged to a member
of the English royal family.
Spreckels left the city several weeks
ago for Philadelphia, and it was sup
posed by his friends that he was going
East on one of his periodical business
trips. Miss de Bretteville left shortly
afterward fo- the same city, followed
by her brother, Alexander de Brette-
vile.
The marriage ceremony was per
formed at the home Of the brides aunt.
Later they went to New York, where
they registered at hotel as Mr.. and
Mrs. A. B. Spreckels, and had it not
been for the fact that some of SPreck-
els friends met the couple the news of
their marriage might still have been
kept secret. Mr. and Mrs Spreckels
have sailed for Europe, where they viii
spend their honeymoon.
