PLANK WORRIES
DEMOCRATS
Delegates at Denver Busy With
Platform
SHYING AT FEDERAL COURT
Bryan and His Friends VIII Obtain
Consensus OF Opinion Before
Final Action.
AT FEDERAL COURT

Denver, June 30.-The fight over
the anti.injunction' plank In the Dem.
ocratic platform is the chief struggle
In which the committee on resolu-
tons is now involved. This plank
continues to provoke discussion
among party leaders who have al
ready arrived for the convention
Such members Of the convention as
have discussed the matter are a unit
in saying that the wording OF the
anti-injunction plank shall leave no
possible doubt in the mind OF a read
er as to the party standing on this
question.
II is now generally believed that
the anti-injunction resolution will not
provide for trials by jury In cases OF
contempt OF court, or favor In any
way measures which might be con.
strued as interfering with the pre-
negatives Of the federal courts.
The friends OF Mr.. Bryan say that
those Of his critics who are express
ing themselves In fear of a radical
anti-injunction plank are fighting the
air. The plank has not yet been
written, but is still matter which is
said to be the desire OF Mr.. Bryan
to consult as many OF the promi-
|nent members OF the party as pos
sible before any decisive action In
formulating this resolution is taken.

OVER 100 MAJORITY
Prouty Puts Out Another caustic
Statement.

Newport, June 3O-The following
statement has been issued by G. H.
Prouty to the press
During the last two days, advices
have been received from IL of the I'M
pledged delegates of the state con-
vention who say that they shall vote
for Prouty. which makes his majority
considerably over 100.
"The last desperate appeal OF the
Montpelier Journal by an editorial in
the issue of last Saturday does not
claim that Stanton has won In the eau
cuses, but cries baby, claiming that
he was at a disadvantage in the cam
paign utterly ignoring the fact that
he has for his supporters some of the
strongest corporations which NEEDLE
in politics In Vermont
THE real reason for Mr. Stanton's
defeat In the caucauses lies In the fact
that the people are In sympathy with
the progressive policies Of the present
administration, and believe that Mr..
Prouty will be more likely to carry
them out than Mr.. Stanton.
1.-THE claims made at the Stanton
headquarters are grotesQue In view
Of the fact that Stanton supporters
in several counties have conceded
the nomination of Mr. Prouty."

Splendid Work Done BY Village I'M
provement Society Of SALISBURY

1t Is difficult to measure the good
accomplished by village improve
ment society, to illustrate Its indir-
ect influence as noted that when q
few OF Its members improve the ap-
pearance Of their home places that
their neighbors catch on and they too,
improve their lawns, set out shade
trees, repair and paint their build.
ings and the appearance OF an entire
street Is greatly improved by the in
spiration gathered through the infiu-
ence OF the society Farmers, too,
are inspired by the improvement not
iced In the village and are not slow
to grade up their lawns, paint their
buildings and slick up around the
place generally. Quite q few instan-
ces of this kind have been actually
noticed in and about SALISBURY.
The direct influences Of this socie-
ty are more apparent and We have
obtained few figures from the South
SALISBURY society which will convey
something OF an idea OF what has
been accomplished there during the
past six years Of its organization
actual cost received from member
ship fees and dues, $51.36; subscrip-
tons towards street lighting, s167..73,
Fourth OF July celebrations, $742.34;
entertainments and suppers, $45625,
hall rents, $500; making total
sl50030 and this amount during the
same period has been expended as fol
lows Sidewalks, $3.50; repairing
Cole hall, $613.14; street lighting,
S476.35; piano and organ, $161.94:
all other improvements. $17751; cash
on hand, s20.S6.
In addition to above and through
the influence of this society street
lamps have been provided through
out the village. more than a hundred
dollars too, has been laid out on side
walks by individual members and
neighbors In adjoining property.
We understand the men In the soc.
lety are interested equally as much
as the women and of course when
men and women do pull together
there is always something doing.
The Fourth Of July celebration this
year we are told will surpass all past
efforts. New enthusiasm has been
added especially In the afternoon
sports and a good time Throughout,
the entire day is assured.

go, 1t certainly was not failure. for
our part Is about $3.50.

Frustrated by Extreme Heat on
Friday Relatives Summoned
to Bedside.

Cooperstown, N. Y, June 30.-The
In charge stated this noon
that Bishop Henry Potter Of New
York could not live through the day.
The stricken man was kept alive dur
ing the night by the administration Of
oxygen. Early this morning the rel
atives were summoned to the dying
mans bedside as 1t was evident that
the end was near.
Bishop Potter was taken Ill early In
May in New York City with an attack
|of stomach and liver trouble and his
illness assumed serious aspect for a
time. His condition did not become
generally known until early In June,
when 1t was announced that illness
would prevent him from attending the
Pan-Anglican Congress in London.
which met on June l6.
Bishop Potter recovered his
strength sufficiently to leave for the
home OF his second wife, Mrs. Eliza
beth Clark Potter here, where his
physicians hoped the change of air
and scene would effect a complete re-
covery. The bishop reached here on
June 10 and for a time he showed ma
terial progress toward complete re-
c0very until last Friday, when, In his
weakened condition he was FRUSTRATED
by the severe heat 1t was not until
Sunday. though, that 1t became known
that Bishop Potters condition was
serious, II having been thought by
those on attendance at the patients
bedside that the prostration was only
Temporary. The bishop, however, dis
played little rallying power, and a
message was sent to New York sum
moning the bishops son. Alonzo Pot
ter, to his fathers bedside. His con
dition became critical yesterday and
his physician, DR.. J. E. Janvrin Of
New York and DIR. NJ. /. Bassett OF
Cooperstown have been in constant a,
tendance.
