THE SECRET OF BRYAN's POWER

The Chicago Public
The senate sounding boards. if
there are any, must have trembled
the other day with Senator Bever-
idges eloquent ridicule of Demo
Gratis who are governed by a boss
more autocratic and domineering"
than President Roosevelt and who,
although twice defeated for the
presidency, still holds the party by
the throat" Mr.. Beveridge fore
bore to explain how a twice defeated
candidate, out of all office, persona
non grata to all machine politicians,
to all overgrown financial interests,
and to all ambitions "pluggers,"
and of only moderate financial
means can hold a party by the throat
and be more autocratic than a man
with all the prestige of high Office
and all the power of vast patronage.
He did not wish to spoil his speech
with problems. Moreover, he might
have been driven to acknowledge
Bryan's hold upon the confidence Of
the voters of his party as the real
secret of his hold on the party.
Bryan holds his party not by the
throat but by the heart

BRYAN STRONGEST CANDIDATE

There Is every reason to believe
that MIR. Bryan is today stronger by
a cool million votes ilian any other
democrat who can be named. If last
fall he had absolutely and unequi-
vocally declined 10 be a candidate.
then it might have been possible to
unite the democracy on some other
able democrat Of national reputa-
ton. But the situation was gloomy.
There seemed to be no other promi-
nent candidates. MIR. Bryan signi-
fed his willingness to lead the fight
II the voters wanted him In re
sponse there came from the common
people who love him an almost
unanimous demand that lie make
the race As the situation is TODAY,
should the money bugs succeed in
beating him out of the nomination.
Just because it begins to look as
though the Denver nominee would
be elected, there will come from the
voters a wave of indignation that
will leave the party stranded high
and dry. Parker polled million
votes less than did Bryan in 1900,
and there was no general bolt, but
let it be thoroughly understood that
the unanimous choice of the masses
is shelved by sharp practice and the
power of money in democratic party
councils and there would be more
than million voters stay at home
or JOIN another party.
Mr. Bryan is the only logical can
didate. the only possible candidate,
and he will be nominated and elect
ed in spite of the dirty work which
is being done by corporation money,
which seems to be flowing in un-
limited quantities

Gov. Hughes TO Raid
Brighton Track
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

NEW YORK, July 11.-Governor
Hughes today received the reports of
20 of his own personally appointed
detectives, who have been at the
Gravesend, Sheepshead bay and Brigh-
ton beach racetracks. submitting abso-
lutte evidence of violations of the anti
betting law. AS a result, it is now
believed the governor will raid the
Brighton beach track and close it up
tight.
In connection with this expected ac-
tion on the part of the governor it is
expected he will make it hot for Police
Commissioner Bingham for permitting
betting at the tracks. Taken in con-
junction with the declaration of acting
District Attorney Robert H. Elder of
Kings county. that the police were
making no effort whatever to stop bet
ting, the reports of the governors de-
tectives make strong case against
the police commissioner.
Reports of the governors detectives
not only presented evidence of bets
openly made at the racetracks, but also
contained evidence that the police and
deputy sheriffs stationed at the track
made practically no effort to stop the
violation OF the law.

Il was a fan thrilling contest that
was close at all stages. Fresno plucked
{ the first run in the second inning. Oak
land tied the score in the sixth and put
over another one in the seventh.
Fresno came back in the eighth with
another tally and once more the game
was deadlocked.
In the eleventh frame Kelly walked,

sent the female dove to her nest at
least two weeks before the usual time.
The wisdom Of the law tabooing deer
hounds is just beginning to be shown.
Two point bucks that likely would
have fallen prey to the dogs when
fawns are all over the hills. The older
deer, having escaped needless molesta-
tion from wayward dog packs, have
Jared better than usual and have ven
tured nearer the haunts of civilization.
Judging from the number of hunt
ing licenses issued, the deer season
will be opened in California by at
least a thousand huntsmen. From gos-
sip gathered around the license bu-
reaus nearly all the licenses issued to
date were applied for by those wishing
to bag the bigger game. As was to be
expected. the last few days of the week
closed with rush on the license
counter in this city. One man had all
he could do to dole out the dollar
shaped tags. Up to yesterday noon,
when the local Office closed for the
day. nearly 1900 badges had been is
sued and q hundred disappointed hunt
ers, who forgot that Saturday after
noon was a legal holiday. were turned
away by the closed doors.
Nothing particularly new in the way
of shooting irons is on the tap for
this seasons opening. Some few will
use automatics, while quite a number
will work the pump gun for doves.
At deer automatics of all makes are
considered a great improvement over
the old repeaters. but as yet the
new weapon has not had time to es-
t4blish itself.
Dealing in turn with the various
shooting grounds where doves are US
uaIly found Sacramento valley merits
first mention.
