The intimari ons from some So
called democratic sources that, even
though Brya is nominated 70
president by the DEM er convention,
al effort Is to be made to frame an
anti-Bryan platform, should empha-
size the necessity of electing as dele
gates TO the Denver convention only
those who are known TO be sincere
in their friendships for the Nebras-
ka statesman and his policies. 1t
would prove disastrous to the demo-
cratic party should the 'intimation"
referred to develop sufficient con-
yention strength to carry out the
anti-Bryan plan. Only those who are
well known to be truly Bryan dem
ocrats should expect TO be selected
as candidates to the Denver conven-
ton: Writing on this subject the
Waco Times-Herald pointedly re-
marks: The Times-Herald doesn't
sit up nights to sing the praises of
Mr.. Bryan, but it has no sort OF
sympathy with the movement to
write a platform which he must re-
pudiate. Having won the fight, he
should be permitted to shape the
platform.

TO BUILD BATH HOUSE
ON DETROIT SIDE OF B. /

Since the location Of the new Casino
has been criticised. Park Commits
sloner Breitmeyer( has taken especial
pains TO canvass the situation very
thoroughly with regard TO the loca-
ton OF the new bathhouse TO be erect
ed this summer on Belle Isle. A study
OF the island and the needs OF the
public, with an eye to the future in
creased patronage OF the island, has
led him to the belief that the only
site available Is that above the boat
club on the Detroit side OF the island.
Rains have interfered greatly with
the building OF the new Belle Isle
canal. and work on it has had TO be
practically abandoned for the time
being until the water can be drawn of
from the part now excavated. IL Is
possible that full gang Will be put
