Edltor-i IN Chief Of The 'rincs-D ispntcl,.
DENVER, COL, July 6----Mr. Bryan
holds the radicals in the hollow of
lis hand. and the radicals are In con-
troll. That is the whole story OF the
convention. There Is no explaining
being done by the artl-Bryan men
They know, and the country knows
that Mr.. Bryan did mot gain his power
by default.
Without discussing other states, 1t
h enough to recall what happened at
Roanoke, when that convention met.
Many leaders and many OF the rank
and file as we'll. desired no instrpc-
tions. because they doubted Mr..
Bryan's wisdom as counselor. and
all knew his weakness as candidate.
But the popular demand for him was
SO powerful that after few feeble at
ijtempts the leaders moved to make 1t
unanimous, because they saw Mr..
Bryan was the undoubted choice OF the
majority.
| What was true OF Virginia has been
true here and true elsewhere. Mr..
Bryan is not the choice Of all. but he
lis the leader OF the najorlty, and that
lis why he controls the convention.
Nomination is not election, and to
be elected. Mr.. Bryan must have the
support OF the conservative and inde-
pendent voter. Whether Mr.. Bryan In
tends to give a moderate injunction
plank is not known. But. Tammany
has shown Its hand regarding 1t. and
Will insist on an Injunction plank as
radical as any that Gompers could de-
sire. Now New York wants no such
plank. It only wants to put Mr.. Bryan

would damage any candidate. Such
bus wtacking is contemplate. 1t will,
in all probability, not achieve Its in
direct purpose. and will serve. il true,
to prove that Tammany is not in sym

TWO STORY FRAME
BUILDING BURNED

A two-st DRY frame building was ar
most completely destroyed by fire last
night on Mobile street.
The building was used as a store and
dwelling and was owned by the H. A..
Dean estate. The negroes who occu-
pied the building are unable to account
for the origin of the fire and are in
clined to believe that it was the work
OF an incindiary, but this is not def
nitely known, as the building which
was sorry frame structure, was al
most burned to the ground when the
fire department arrived.
1t is estimated that there was about
5000 worth of furniture in the build
ing and that the value of the house
was about $500. A small insurance
was carried.

there were no developments that could

The fact, however, that the COM

suppose that actual work will speedily
