| NJ IN LINE FOR
BRYAN, Says J
B UR n S
SHERIFF RETURNS FROM DEN.
YER CONVENTION CERTAIN
THAT DEMOCRATS HAVE WIN.
MING TICKET.

Sheriff James d. Burns has come
back from Denver a loyal Bryan man
and convinced that the Democratic
platform Is one that will help the
party locally. although he is not quite
ready to say that Bryan Will carry
Michigan. He still remains enthusiast
tic over Gov. Johnson, OF Minnesota.
and admits his belief that the latter
would have been the strongest candi'
date.
II think everybody is going TO wheel
into line for Bryan" says Burns. Il
know that | am. have worked in
two campaigns for him and will so
into third one Just as hard.
The platform is good one. II
will help US here In Detroit. The la
boring people generally will be we'll
satisfied with IL.
1T was q great convention and
think II nominated winning ticket.
although Bryan Is not the strongest
man We could have put up. II Is not
generally known. perhaps. but the
Johnson and Gray people were within
10 votes Of keeping Bryan out OF the
nomination. When they saw that IL
was a hopeless fight. however. they
released their delegates and let them
get into the band wagon. That Is why
there was SO small vote for those
two.
Half the Michigan delegation would
have voted for Johnson II they had
had a chance But we were instruct
ed for Bryan and there was no use In
breaking away as things were"
Burns went with Judge Connolly.

ton.
That trip TO Cripple Creek is worth
travelling 1000 miles to enjoy says
the sheriff
Il went TO Denver TO attend the
funeral of Daniel J. Campau and
when that was over did not pay a
great deal OF attention TO the conven-
tion," says Judge w. F. Connolly. who
reached home Sunday night.
Bryan will be elected. He has said
that he wants but one term, but | am
not prepared to name the next nomi-
nee"
"Will it be Johnson"
Maybe"
II have not read the platform" the
Judge declared.
Judge Connolly and the administra-
ton Democrats OF Detroit generally.
do not express much fear OF the build
ing up OF a rival Democratic organ
ization under the leadership OF DAN
iel J. Campau. II the latter is chosen
10 head the national committee and
succeeds in electing Bryan. They fig
ure that they can still control In all
local matters which interest them.
Such a situation would. however.
undoubtedly be bitter one. The
strength OF the feeling OF the anti
Campau men is shown by the fact
that they sent to the prominent Dem
ocrats OF each state copy OF the
resolution by which II was sought TO
read Campau out OF the party locally
