Bryan in Platform.

The Johnson men were generous i'll
their victory and declared in their
platform that while they entertained
an affection for and confidence in the
integrity and and ability of William j.
Bryan. they believed that Johnson was
a man better calculated to bring sue
cess to the Democratic party. and was
first entitled to the support of Mime
sofa
The Bryan men did not make as
great fight before the committee on
credentials as had been predicted.
They did not seriously contest the
vote of Hennepin county. They were
awarded the delegation from Itasca
county, and onehalf the vote of Cot
tonwood county In all other of the
contests which they had declared they
would make they either did not appear
or were defeated
No Second Choice.
1t was a foregone conclusion that
this would be the result, and they re.
served their strength for fight on
the floor in favor of having Bryan de.
clared the sole heir to the votes of
Minnesota in the event of any politi.
cal disaster overtaking Johnson in the
Denver convention. Two of the nine
teen members Of the resolutions com.
mittee presented platform plank to
this effect, which they asked be made
an addition to the platform. They did
not move that it be substituted for the
majority report. but Chairman Work.
declared that he would consider the
minority report as an amendment
and the defeat of the Bryan faction
came about on the motion to substi.
tute the minoriay report for that OF
the majority.
Tie fight at times waxed warm
while the debate on the platform was
in progress, but there was nothing ap.
preaching disorder at any time.
Leaving all political qucstons aside
the convention wac throughout q fat
tering tribute DO Gov Johnson. The
enthusiasm for him was unbounded
and sincere. Every mention of his
name was instantly fcSowed by a wild
yell of delight, and the final adoption
of the platform indorsing him and in.
structing the delegates to fight for
him at Denver was followed by dem
onstration Of enthusiasm the loyalty
OF which any man might feel proud.

Delegates from some of the northern

put 1, is by no means sure that all
solerates thus appointed will vote to
confinue the s5nseless and useless
rel,gious fight. In this regard. the
ae,esates Of Kootenai county will be
divided.
blaine county's II votes are unin-
s,rurted, and while 1t Is not known
i,st how they will stand on matters
generally, 1t is stated that they will
Tote as unit for the seating of the
regularly elected delegation from
bingham county, the latter being
anti Dubois. Twin Falls delegation is
another that received no instructions
OF the 29S votes in the convention,
I26 were instructed by their con-
stituents to ally themselves against
the meddlesome would-be boss. This
number Is three in excess of the in
structed Dubois delegates, and with
the anti-Dubois forces will likely go
a majority of the remaining 40 votes.
The first showing of strength win
come in the naming of temporary Of
ficers, with Blaine, Twin Falls and
Idaho counties holding the balance
of power.

CROOK ASKS AID
OF LOCAL POLICE
Robert Anderson, Accused Of Oak
land Murder, Wants Help
In His Defense.
Criminal Records of Slayer and Slain
Show That Both Men Operated
Confidence Games Hcrc.

Chief Of Police Pitt IS in receipt Vt
a letter from Robert Anderson known
TO the police here as an al. around
crook asking the chief to hunt ny the
record here of one George Moore who
was shot and killed on May 20 al Oak
land, Cal, by Anderson. The latter
is in Jail charged with murder and
wants Moore's record to be used I'm his
defense.
When Anderson was arrested at oak
land for killing Moore, he made the
excuse that he shot Moore because the
latter murdered his sister In salt Lake,
Sept. "a, 1905 According to Anderson's
letter. the mans sister was living here
with Moore rs his wife, and on the
date mentioned he choked her, boat her
nearly to death and then forced NOR
phine down her throat. Anderson de-
clares that as q result of this the wo-
man died and he shot Moore because
of the alleged murder.
Detective II. l.. Shannon, who Is
thoroughly familiar with the facts in
the case, and who knew Moore and
knows Anderson well, sent nforma-
ton that will probably not be received
with gladness by Anderson inasmuch
as It is of a different character than
that desired by the man now charged
| with murder.
Detective shannon says that the wo-
| man who passed as the wife OF Moore
| died from morphine poisoning but that
she took 1t with suicidal intent Shan
non says the woman known as Mrs.
Moore was not the sister of Anderson.
| The officer further says that up to
| the time of the killing Of Moore by
| Anderson. the pair, with two other
| crooks known as Bill Heaney and Jim
| Davenport. were constantly together
working their graft games, and at nc
| time did Anderson accuse Moore o.
murder. 1t is the belief Of the police
| here that Moore and Anderson quar-
relied, and that Anderson shot Moore
and to save himself set UP the claim
that Moore had murdered his, Ander-
sons, sister. The men We're in Salt
Lake about two weeks ago but were
given "fioaters" and left town.

last evenings session of the board of
education. The list is practically the

tory is commended and all such teach
ers are sure of their positions again.
The question of increase of salary
for teachers in elementary schools as
