Pittsburg, July 27-A move made by
w. j. Bryan to capture the finances of
the Democratic party inside the state
or pennsylvania has been cleverly
checkmated, and the Bryan people here
nave once more been impressed with
the idea that there is nothing for them
in Pennsylvania.
1t has become known that close
friends of National Committeeman
Kerr Bryan's man, had made over
lures to State Chairman George Dime
ling that only friends of Bryan be ap-
pointed on the state finance commit
tee, which has not yet been named.
Dimeling does not say what the nature
of the proposition was but is rather
emphatic in his rundown of the sug-
gestion, and he announces that he VIII
use his own judgment in appointing the
committee. AS Dimeing is Il bitter
enemy of Kerr it is not thought the
Bryan people stand much show.
1t came out yesterday that Bryan
personally conducted the fight against
Cot. j. NJ Guifey of Pennsylvania.
After Guffey had landed the Pennsy1-
vania state delegation to Denver with
ont instructions one of the Bryan Sup
porters Went to Lincoln and Bryan Is
alleged to have said:
I'VE can't beat Guffey in Pennsylva-
mia. hut we can throw him out at Dem
Yer. We will use the Democracy out
side Pennsylvania to kill him. All we
want from Pennsylvania is enough OF
