Ohio For Bryan.

Tuesday, February 18th. was
certainly Bryan day in Ohio, and
any one in doubt as to the
sentiment of the Democrats Of the
Buckeye state, who was fortunate
enough to be in Columbus on that
date, would speedily have had the
doubt removed. The dollar
banquet at Memorial hall in honor
of the great Democratic leader
was unquestionably the greatest
and most successfully event Of the
kind ever held in Ohio, if not in
the entire country. AT the tables
1886 men were seated, represen-
ting every country in the state,
the committee on arrangements
having wisely apportioned the
tickets to the various counties,
thus preventing one locality far
ing better than another. In ad.
ditlon 5000 persons, many of
them ladies, were seated in the
gallery, while thousands were
turned away unable to gain ad-
mission. Mr.. Bryan spoke for
nearly two hours and those who
have listened to him often say the
address was one of the most elo-
quent and convincing the master.
full orator ever delivered. Earlier
in the day he addressed the
Legislature on the subject "The
Guaranty of Bank Deposits" and
here too the Nebraskan received
an ovation. During the day and
following the banquet the hotel
lobbies were crowed, the scene re-
one of big state conven-
tion. The entire state is ahame
with Bryan sentiment and there
is not the slightest doubt that the
Ohio delegation will be enthusi-
astically for him at the Denver

THE NEWS
OF THE WEEK

CHICAGO-The Illinois Su.
preme court at Springfield decided
that aslabor unions "unfair list"
is in effect boycott and could be
enjoined. The case was brought
by John f.. and John Il. Wilson,
livery and draymen, of Sparta,
ILL.,, and owners of the Sparta
Auditorium. The suit was
brought by these two men against
Roy Hay and other union men of
Sparta.
The Wilson's were hauling brick
for "a school house in 1900. The
local Team Drivers International
union ordered another driver put
to work. The Wilson's appealed
to President G.. p. Shea, but he
refused to interfere. Then no.
tice was printed that the Wilson's
were on the unfair list.
Again, in 1904, the Wilson's were
working on church building and
could not get sufficient union help.
They were permitted to employ
non-union men under an agreement
that they would pay union dues
for the men and dispute arose as
to how much was due. The
in controversy was only
"a, but it resulted in the Wilson's
being put on the unfair list again.
Then the School Board of Sparta
wanted to give a course of lectures
in the Auditorium, and quickl y
was ordered by the union not to
hire that hall. The ban later was
raised at the request of the super
intendent of schools. However,
the local undertaken was told not
to use Wilson s teams in hauling
his hearse. The Wilson's then Sc
cured an injunction, which is now

compromise 946 delegates, the
central committee at it's meeting

temporary organization is as
follows; Chairman, Edward ii.
Moore, of Youngstown; secretary,
Senator b. f. Gayman, of Frank

The convention gives every
promise of being one of tile most
enthusiastic in the psrty's history,
nearly every Democrat in the
state feeling confident of victory.
This belief is shared by thousands
of Republicans, many of whom
are outspoken in the prediction of
Republican defeat. All this
naturally stimulates interest in the
Democratic nominations. but so

NEW YORK-Onicial investi-
cation of the circumstance sur
rounding the asphyxiation of Mrs.
Natica Rives- Burden, in her
palatial home on Fifth avenue,
Friday, leaves no conclusion other
than that of accidental death.
The theory is that the draft from
an opened window blew out the
flame of the gas reading lamp be-
side her bed. Her little dog,
which recovered, was not lying in
draft, thus escaping the fumes,
but the breeze waited the fumes
into the face of the sleeping
woman. The street in front of
Burden mansion was thronged
with the carriages of sympathetic
friends this morning, who came to
leave words of coincidence. Mrs.
Rives- s-Buren, daughter of o. II.
=. Belmont, was one of New York g
most beautiful and prominent
society women, though ill-health
subsequent to her marriage kept
her from society's greatest
activities.

OLUMBUS-With the death
of William Sells, who died in New
York last week, came the passing
of the "king of bareback riders, I"
who grew up in Columbus and
there received the first instruction
in the art that made him famous.
From the eastern coast to the most
westerly, from the SHOWS of the
Dominion to the warm waters of
the Gulf, he was known to the
people of this country. And it
was not on this continent alone
that he had startled and pleased
the multitude.
He passed away at rooming
house at 1873 West Thirty second
street, New York. He had been
i'll for some weeks with n disease
which was diagnosed as acute
gastritis. On Monday morning
Mrs. MaeWil,iams, the landlady,
heard Sells groaning in his room.
She entered and found him in a
seml.conscious coalition. When
surgeon arrived with an ambu-
lance he said at once that the i'll
man was beyond the reach of aid.
Death came before the wagon
reached the hospital.
The end of the season had come

COLUMBUS-A new peni-
tentiary, constructed on the lines
of the most modern and best Unit
ed States prisons and built princi-
pally by convict labor, will be rec
commended to the present legisla-
ture by the penitentiary commits
sion within the next two weeks.
The commission has gone thor
oughly into the feasibility of
building new prison and accord
ing to an announcement made yes
terday by President Henry c..
Taylor, new penitentiary prob
ably some distance from the city,
will be recommended.
1t is thought most of the con-
struction work can be done by con-
vict labor and that, inclusive of
site and other expenses, the total
cost to the state will be about
81, 100000. The commission,
however, does not believe the
present penitentiary site will bring
any amount like that winch was
expected from its sale.
"About eight years time would
be necessary to build the new
prison., said President Taylor
yesterday. "Most of the work
could be done by prisoners and
without hurrying the building it
could be completed by that time. -
