Two members of the Nezperce tribe
of Indians. two laborers from the

three Americans were gathered in

The Indians had succeeded in Sc

were apprehended at the Chinese

GLIDING the celebration with a gen
eral row. The Italians had spent
the day about the city and after
mixing beer, wine and egg-nog
aroused the combative spirit that re-
suited in general fracas near the

gathered from the various sections
of the city where they had sought
rest after burdening themselves with
an overload of red liquor. The city
treasury was benefited to the amount
of $40 by the police work last night.

Mr.. Bryan'S Comment.

Hon. William j. Bryan in discussing
that portion of the Republican platform
regarding negro suffrage, has this to
say:
THE Republican party has made
political capital out of the negro for
more than a third of century. In many
Of the close States it has won its cleo
tions by the negro vote, and in the
States where it has had power il has
never treated the negro any better than
he has been treated by the Democrats.
In other words, in the Northern States
the Democrats, without receiving any
support from the negro vote, have
been as friendly TO him as the Republi-
cans In the South the Democrats have
furnished large part of the money to
provide that education of which the
Republican platform boasts. And yet
in each recurring campaign the Republi-
can leaders have attempted to appeal TO
the prejudices of the negro by parading
before him the restrictions placed upon
suffrage in some of the Southern States.
Why is it that the Republican leaders
are only solicitious about the colored
man when voting time comes -
