Denver, JAN 22.-The Republican
today prints an alleged confession Sc
cured by an Italian detective from An
tone Neromi, alias Barron, charged
with the murder of four Italians,
three men and one woman, at Flor
ence, Colo. The detective, Frank
Sandesko, of Pueblo, Colo, who, ac-
cording to the story, gained the con-
fidence of Neromi, who is now con-
fined in the county jail at Canon City,
by pretending to be a member of the
Black Hand Society from Pittsburg,
Pa.
The two were permitted to con-
verse in a cell in the Jail, Sandesko
explaining his presence there by tell
ing 4Neromi that he was being held
for murder committed. in Pueblo.
During the conversation Neromi eX-
pressed a desire to join the Black
Hand. and Sandesko told him that it
was necessary for him to prove that
he had committed twelve murders be-
fore he could be admitted. Neromi re-
piled that he was eligible.
Sandesko states that Neromi then
related to him series of murders
he had committed, beginning with the
killing of a neighbor who had abused
him in Italy when he was but II years
old.

THE OCALA BANNER
AND MR.. BRYAN
Ocala Banner.


Our esteemed contemporary, The
Pensacola Journal, is somewhat hyper
critical and hard to please.
This paper printed several articles
OF column or more in length in
which it sought to give certain rea-
sons why some other democrat, than
Mr.. Bryan would make a stronger run
for the presidency.
The Journal did not pretend to con-
trovert the reasons set forth. and, in
deed, was candid enough to say that
IN the main they were strong and
forceful and that it subscribed to
some of them.
the Journal ended its criticism by
insisting that the Banner ''trot out its
candidates"
The -Ocala Banner had on previous
occasions named certain democrats
whom it thought all elements of the
democratic. party could unite upon.
but at the instance of The Journal it
went over the list the second time.
The Banner is now told by The PEN
Sacola Journal that it was not SO
much the names of the candidates it
wanted as the reasons why the Ban
ner thought that they could poll a
larger vote than Mr.. Bryan.
So we suppose that 1t is up to this
paper to retrace its steps and again
go over. the arguments.
The strongest reason is that none
OF the other democrats named have
made the strong antagonisms that Mr..
Bryan has.
The New York World says that Gov
ernor Johnson would poll in the city
of New York alone $50, 600 more votes
than Mr.. Bryan would.
= Henry Clay was the idol of the whig
party. He was the strongest man, IL
tellectually, in its ranks; he was one
Of the greatest orators the nation ever
produced, but though nominated for
the Office he could never be elected
president, yet this honor@~was com
ferred upon weaker and less popular
wings than he was. Why? Because
Mr.. Clay had made strong antagon-
Isms, which the other candidates mad
not done.
Mr.. Bryan polled a million loss
votes in his second than in his first
race, and all the while the country
had increased in population.
What does this prove? 1t seems 10
is that it proves that Mr.. Bryan Fad

IN the masses.
