pletely,"
At the Gray headquarters Josiah
Marvel said that Mr.. Cleveland was q
world character and that his memory
should be paid the highest possible
tribute. He had not read the Parker
resolution and he said the wisdom OF
adopting it had not been called TO MS
attention.
After reading the resolution with
great care Mr. Marvel said he Thought
il open to criticism, and that a resolu-
ton which did not rake up issues over
which there had been or was likely TO
be bitterness would answer the purpose
far better and be eminently more just
to the record of Mr. Cleveland.
More emphatic than all these men
was Judge Wade of Iowa. He SAD
that every proposition in the cleveland
resolution which might give rise TO
controversy should be pulled out by
the roots.' Continuing he said:
'sTf the friends and the enemies OF
Mr. Bryan threaten to dispute over
this question, then the friends of Mr..
Cleveland will insist that there shall be
no party quarrel in paying to his mem
ory the respect which his honorable
service to the party deserves.

Mr.. Bryan is not nominated on the hrst
ballot, which will not happen, his de-
feat is certain"
Judge Gray's friends also contend
that Bryan's nomination on the frst
ballot is quite out of the question, anu
saw that If the Nebraskan can be kept
down until the second ballot or thlru
ballot the nomination is as likely 10 60
TO one man as another and that MI,
Gray's chances will be equal to the
best. .a
s'You say Bryan and Gray" SAID
Mr. Marvel, the Gray manager, TO
Judqe Powers, head of the Titan uele-
cation. who wears the Gray button Out
saws he is for Bryan; why not MAKE
II GRAY and Bryan? By contending tor
gray for second place you admit ms
qualities as a vote getter. Bryan mas
twice tried and failed.
"He would get for the ticket as vice
nrAsident all the votes he can COM
roand for the presidency. Give us Gray
