 Il have written Captain Lrtle.' said General Little, that his action meets my hearty approval l have suggested that he spare no time in securing con. victions in every case where enlisted men or officers wear any part of a uni form except when in the service. The law is very plain in the matter, as it should be. The government should not be called upon to purchase two or three uniforms every year for the use of the men when there is no reason for their wearing out.
 According 10 Captain Little's let ter, Chitwood wore his army legg-ngs while blackberry picking recently and Captain Little thereupon swore out warrant charging him with violating the military law, and he was convict cd and fined in mayors court.

AN AMAZING STATEMENT.

The fact that Judge Alton B. Park.
er, the last democratic candidate for
president, had made a statement that
he Intended to introduce a resolution
In the democratic convention at Den
re- with reference to the memory OF
the late Grover Cleveland has caused
. great deal of worry and excitement
among the friends of Mr.. Bryan. II
has given the newspaper writer's a
lot of space to fill, and the quotations
from Bryan's friends have been to
the point that 1t would create greater
dissension than ever IL such a reso-
luton was brought out. The un-
friendliness of Parker and Bryan, re-
sulting from four years ago when
Parker raj the candidate for presi-
dent, has never been healed over,
and the effort of Parker at this time
to secure recognition for the late Mr..
Cleveland has aroused the friends of
Bryan to fight the possibility of its
success.
This Parker resolution gave Frank
Pettigrew an opportunity to spring
Into the limelight in a manner that
was really not very creditable to the
gentleman-when that bitter tongue
Of his caused him to express himself
Of the dead in such a way as to make
the incident really regrettable. Pet
ugrew was quoted concerning the
efforts Of Parker to secure the intro
duction Of the Cleveland memorial,
md here is what the former South
Dakota senator said of Parker and
Cleveland: *His action Is contempt
ible. The thing to do with Parker
and any resolutions Of his will be to
refer them to q committee. 1t is
idiotic to attempt to eulogize a man
b. insulting an entire party, and
Parker proclaims the chief virtue of
Cleveland to have been a disagree
msnt with his party. The truth is
that Cleveland was q rotten old graft
~"
That IL pretty harsh language to
come even from Pettigrew after q
nakion had really paid such q rich
tribute to tho memory Of Mr.. Cleye-
alnd. Il was unnecessary to make
aachA reference to the deceased
trestdent Of the United States, but
Psttigrew's unbridled tongue will
lead him into most any kind Of d
controversy. u 10 said that Pettigrew
stands high In the councils Of the
Bryan crowd and that should the
gentleman from Nebraska be elected

ny cabinet to the South Dakota gen
tloman.

GUFFY N BRYAN.

Col. James f. Guffy, of Pennsylva-
mia, and Col. William Jennings Bry-
an, of Nebraska, locked horns in a
gabfest just before the Denver con-
vention, Mr.. Bryan opening the dis
cussion on the front porch of his
home in Lincoln on the occasion of
the visit of the P~ennsylvani delega-
ton to him on its way to Denver.
Mr.. Bryan cut loose concerning the
attitude of some of the Pennsylvania
delegation, and suggested the idea
that any man who was not in SYM
pathy with the action of the Denver
convention and who could not work
in harmony with it's results ought to
step aside and give some individual
who could do SO an opportunity to
have a chance at the proposition.
Mr.. Guffy is a candidate for commit
teeman from Pennsylvania and Mr..
Bryan is using his efforts to defeat
the gentleman because Bryan alleges
that Guffy tried to defeat the will Of
the people in the selection Of Bryan
delegates to the Denver convention.
Col. Guhy made a reply to Mr..
Bryan's attack that certainly will
hold the Nebraska gentleman for, the
time being. and he had nothing to
say when asked for an opinion on
the interview given out by Gufy.
The Pennsylvania gentleman touch
ed up the democratic candidate in a
very dramatic manner, went into his
past record on certain matters where
in Bryan claimed to be SO pure and
proved the goods on him without any
trouble. Guny's talk was a stinger
throughout. He referred to the at
titude of Bryan concerning the pres
ence Of Roger Sullivan as a member
of the Ilinois COMMITTEE. wherein
Bryan absolutely demanded that Mr..
Sullivan be retired from the commit
tee because Of his corporation in
luences. Down in Pennsylvania Cuff
10 Is regarded as n Of the best
democrats in the whole state, a man
who has lead the party in many bat
ties. and it rather CRATES on the ears
of the Pennsylvanians to witness the
NARROWING of their leader.
1t is confidently believed in Denver
that with the Gufy incident as a
starter and with one or two good
leaders that much trouble could be
caused Bryan before he got his con-
vention restored to its former sub
missive state. The rumbling of the
wheels of the band wagon, however,
Is heard in the distance and the Bry-
ar program will be carried out to the
finish without unhitching the horses
to make any change in the program.
