TROUBLE TOR DEMOCRAT.
They Find That the Delivery of the
Labor Vote to the Democ-
racy is Not easy.

The Democrats are having trouble
in their state headquarters organizing
q bureau which they expect to de-
liver the labor vote of Illinois to them.
A fight has been started between the
members of the American Federation
of Labor and the railroad brother
hoods. the latter having membership
of 10000 in Illinois.
When the railroad mems bureau or
the national campaign committee was
organized. Z. ]. Culkin, an engineer on
the Illinois Central, and an organizer
in the brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers, was placed in charge of the
work Last week the managers super
seeded him by placing in charge of the
work A. A. Allen, advertising manager
for the Union Labor Advocate, an otft-
cial publication of the Chicago Fedora
tiOn of Labor with offices in the same
suite. The railroad bureau was COM
bined with the general labor bureau,
and Culkin refused to serve under the
dictation of Allen.
This was bad start, but the state
Of the situation made it worse. Last
week Charles Boeschenstein chairman
of the Democratic state central COM
mittee. hired two members of the rail
road brotherhood connected with the
Illinois Central railroad to take charge
of the Stevenson Railroad Mems club.
The organization work was begun by
these men, and Offices were opened i'll
the Sherman house.
Now comes more dickering on the
part of the Democratic managers with
the Federation officials, resulting i'll
the appointment of John b. Lennon,
Of Bloomington, treasurer of the
American Federation of Labor, as
head of the combined railroad and
general bureau. Mr.. Lennon is a per-
sonal friend of Adlai Stevenson.
Mr.. Boeschenstein was warned By
the railroad men that they wonld not
work under the supervision of the
Federation officials, not for personal
reasons, but because the railroad men
never affiliated with the Federation
men in matters political.
Mr.. Boeschenstein saw fit to go
ahead with his plan, and the railroad
men went out ON strike"
Now they threaten to organize the
railroad men in Illinois, and the plain
inference is that the Bryan-Stevenson
ticket will be hurt thereby.

CONFESS OR DENY.

Mr.. Bryan says he recogniz d
in 1896 that there were people
who feared his election would be
injurious to the country. Their
fears grew out of the fact tn 1T
his paramo unit issue was the free
coinage of silver at the ratio of
16 to l. They believed free sll
yer would make cheap silver h
measure of value, that the pr
chasing power of wages won d
be decreased, and that bank Il
posts and other credits would u
scaled down one-half in value.
