Lincoln. Neb.. Nov. 5.-While not
caring to discuss at this time the po-
litical effect of the Democratic victory
IN his home state or analyze the cause,
William J. Bryan, in IN informal talk
to a number of friends who called on
him, expressed his pleasure at the result
in Nebraska and the satisfaction af-
forded him to learn of the election Of
so many Of his political and persona
friends.
The defeat he sustained did not
weigh heavily on Bryan. He has no
other immediate plans than to rest at
home following his canvass.

DEMOCRATS 5wOULD
HELP THE
PRESIDENT
Especial to The sentinel.)

Washington, Mar. 2S.-Represen-
tative John Sharp Williams of Mis-
sissippi, as leader of the minority in
the house of representatives, has is
sued to the press written statement
defining the attitude of the demo-
cratic party in the house toward leg
lslation urged by President Roose-
welt in his messages to congress at
the present session.
The statement describes what re-
publican legislation the democrats
will support, what they will oppose
and what concessions they demand
on the part of the majority as the
price of refraining from an organ
lied flibuster throughout the re-
mainder of the session.
Mr.. Williams says:
''In so far as the things urged by
the president are good things, l
would like the country to know that
all he has to do is to deliver 20 or
25 republican house votes in favor
of them These conjoined with the
solid democratic votes will put them
through"
Mr.. williams notes the following
measures as the ones which will
command virtually the solid demo-
cratic vote within constitutional lin
its"
To compel publication of campaign
contributions.
The prohibition of child labor in
the District of Columbia and the ter
ritories.
An employers liability law, drawn
to conform to the recent decisions
of the supreme court.
Federal liability to government
employees.
A law to prohibit the issuance of
injunctions without notice to the
party enjoined
Removal of the tariff on wood
pulp and printing paper.
Imposition of federal charge for
every water power right granted on
a navigable stream.
Those principles and measures
urged by the president with which
Mr.. Williams as minority leader
takes issue are enumerated as fol-
lows:
The penalizing of the boycott.
The right of the attorney general
to dominate railroads when common
carriers are thrown into the hands
of receiver.
Modification of the sherman anti
trust law SO as to permit within linn
itations the maintenance of trusts
and the making of trade agreements
between combinations of capital.
Appointment of a commission to
prepare data for revision of the tar

O'RYAN DENOUNCES
SOCIALISM AS
CURSE
(special to The sentinel.)

Colorado Springs, Mar. 2S.-That
socialism is world wide movement
menacing all that good citizens hold
sacred in the state and nation, a hy-
draheaded monster much stronger
and more dangerous than the boa of
the Jungle, was the opinion expressed
by Rev Father William O'Ryan, par
ish priest of st. Leo's church in Den
yer, in an address delivered before
the Winter Night Club here last ev-
ening. There was a large attend
ance of leading citizens and the ad-
dress of Father Organ attracted
wide attention.
1.-THE greatest single curse to So
ciety in the world today are the pol
iticians. and under socialism every
man, woman and child in the coun-
try would, by force of circumstan-
ces. have to be a politician, so that
the greatest curse of society would
be multiplied like the plague OF
Egypt.
I'VE, in Denver. have very little
privacy in our home life by reason
of the blatant impudence of the yell
low papers with their screaming
headlines in red ink; but what lit
tie privacy we enjoy in our home
life would be swept away by social
ism, which would destroy the home
and obliterate all social and domes-
tic ties. 1t attacks all the best ties
of married life and is the worst en-
emy of good citizenship
The speaker gave figures to show
how dangerous the movement is be-
coming, not only in this country, but
in Europe.
In speaking of the remedy to be
applied, Father Organ said the
greatest is to be found in religion
and in it's practical application. He
said that in the religion of the Bible
is to be found the remedy for all
woes of the human race and the
wrongs which socialism is said to
combat. The greatest enemy to So
cialism, he said, is the man who
shows himself true patriot by
working for the best interests of the
home, the state and the nation.

RIOT
AT THE
SALE
(By Associated Press.)


New York, Mar. 2S.-Scenes al
most approaching a riot were wit
messed on the Broad street curb
market today. They resulted from
the offering for sale for the first
time the shares in a widely adver-
tised mining property.
Five minutes after the usual op-
ening hour more than 500 brokers
and messengers made a wild rush
for agents to whom the distribution
of the new shares had been entrust-
ed. Ninety per cent of the brokers
had buying orders for this stock, and
in their anxiety to execute their
commissions fought wildly to reach
the men who had the stock for sale.
Men and boys were knocked down
and trampled upon in the rush, the
street was blocked by the struggling
crowd, traffic was suspended and the
shouts and sounds of the conflict
brought throng of spectators to
the scene.
In the meantime the general busi-
ness of the outdoor market was
practically at a standstill.
After the noon hour the excite
ment had quieted down.

JOHNSON
WOULD
RUN
Especial to The Sentinel.)

St. Paul, Mimi, Mar. 2S.-Gov.
John A. johnson has expressed his
Willingness to accept the democratic
nomination for president, should it
be rendered him.
In a letter addressed to the editor
of noted Swedish paper in Mime
apolis, Governor Johnson declares
that II do not believe that any
American citizen should be an active
to the presidency. Any American
would appreciate the high honor
which could come to him, in this
great country, as the standard bear
er of his party"
Governor Johnson then refers to
his name being linked with the NOM
nation by the press of the country
with appreciation.
In part Governor Johnson says:
1.-The matter has gone so far that
it seems to me that / should at least
say in answer to your interrogation
that, If the democratic party of the
nation believed me to be more avail
able than any other man, and felt
that by my nomination / could con-
tribute any service to the party and
to the nation, | should be happy to
be the recipient of the honor which

the party of the state of Minnesota
desires to present my name to the
next national convention, l am sure
1 would have no objection; but If
Minnesota were the only state to de-
clare for me, / should still feel that
the distinction was one of the great
est which could come to me.
81 have done nothing and will do
nothing to bring about this end, and
shall not be a candidate in the sense
of seeking the nomination.
"If, however, those who have the
welfare of the country and the dem
ocratic party at heart should feel
that l am necessary this year of
grace. / certainly shall respond to
any call which may be made upon
me. In this connection l desire 1t
understood that in no sense am l
to be a candidate for the purpose of
defeating Mr.. Bryan or any other
man; that the only consideration
which would induce me to allow the
use of my name would be the feel
ing that l might be necessary to the
cause"

CANON OR CANYON?
Observation-Disclosures

The United States Geographic
Board, which gets together every
now and then to decide how we shall
spell geographic names, and incl
dentally to reverse it's past decisions,
has made another ruling as to the
proper spelling of the name of GER
tain town. Canon City is the town,
and that is the way the Board says
it's name should be spelled. Not
CANYON CITY," but Canon City"
with the tide over the 1.-THE little
wavy line that looks like a piece of
fishing worm.
If the founders of Canon City
could have foreseen what hard
impress its spelling on the country
they probably would have called it
Penitentiaryville, or Jugtown, or
something else that's easy. There
is really no reason why anybody
should seek to distort the spelling of
canon" but there are lot of peo-
pie who like to do unreasonable
things when photography is concern
ed. When they get hold of a word
that came into our language from
some other language-as canon"
came from the Spanish-they are not
content until 1t is Englished out of
all semblance to its former self
Hence, We get canyon" for canon"
Now in this enlightened age peo-
pie are supposed to know-and
nin.ty-nine out of every hundred do
know-that canon" is not pro-
nounced cannon" but the ortho-
graphy-manglers won't let it go at
that. They insist on putting in the
y to placard the fact that the last
syllable begins with the y sound. OF
course there can be no objection to
the use of the tide, but as very few
SO marked, the use of the super
fluous has become quite common.
Here in the West where every town
has canon as scenic annex the
Spanish form, minus the diacritical
mark. is nearly always used, but in
Eastern papers the word is seldom
printed without that everlasting and
always useless y. 1t is found in all
tenderfoot literature on the West;
indeed, the tenderfoot would no
more think of spelling boulder"
with instead of W.
The decision of the Geographic
Board ought to be a relief to the
people of Canon City. and it certain
ly will be if the Board stands pat.
But the Board reverses itself so
often-and reversed itself once on
this particular word-that there is
no telling when it will again place
it's seals of approval on the outland-
ish canyon. Colorado Springs Ga
