TO NEW WORKERS
Great Nebraskan Heard by Thous-

City.

Carnegie Hall, New York, Sept. l9.-
Democracy's presidential campaign in
Greater New York had its advent last
night, when William j. Bryan, at mass
meeting under the auspices of Tammany
Hall. spoke before enthusiastic thousands
who filed Carnegie hall and overfiowed
into the streets The ovation accorded to
the presidential candidate was brilliant
climax to a day in which united party
gave Mr. Bryan continuous reception.
Mr.. Bryan spoke for over an hour on
Republican Tendencies" at Carnegie hall.
On his arrival yesterday Mr.. Bryan spoke
at a monday meeting, and during the
afternoon held constant levees at his hotel,
where democratic leaders in the city and
state called upon him.
Previous to the Carnegie hall meeting
last night Mr. Bryan was entertained at
dinner at the home Of Melbert E. Carey.
On approaching Carnegie hall a little later
Mr.. Bryan was given an ovation by a
crowd of 10000 or more persons who
could not get in the hall. The candidate

Muskogee, Sept. 19.-The managers OF
the republican Creager campaign for con-
gress from the Third district received, and
are still receiving, a distinct series of
shocks from the boomerang effects of an
article printed in the Muskogee Phoenix
with the hope of alternating the Catholic
vote from the big democratic congressman,
Jim Davenport.
Immediately after Colonel Douglas with
drew from the editorship of the Phoenix,
one of its news writer's, setting under in
structions from the Creager press bureau
wrote a lengthy article, the purport OF
which was that Bishop Theodore Meer-
schart, of Oklahoma City, had made a
speech at a banquet in Muskogee, and had
taken shots at Davenport" because OF
some remark alleged to have been made
by the latter in a recent speech.
The Phoenix article was deliberate
distortion of facts, and the alleged shots
at Davenport existed only in the writer s
imagination.
Local Catholics are incensed at the way
in which their church was dragged into a
political controversy, and this was inten-
sified a day or so later when the Bishop
in the McAlester News-CapitaL republi-
can paper, permitted an interview in
which the Phoenix article was Indignantly
Iefuted Follows the interview which was
given out by Father Blynn, at whose home
in McAlester Bishop Meerschart stopped
as reported in the News-Capital:..
There is one statement that BishoI
Meerschart would like to have corrected
however, said Father Flynn tspeakif,f 70

A CATHOLIC SAYS ATTACK
ON BIG JIM IS BASELESS
Republican Press Attempt to Drag Catholic
Church into Mire of Politics Denounced BY
Leading Catholics Bishop Denies Alleged
Interview in Muskogee Phoenix Wild
Scheme to Alternate Catholic Vote.

Phoenix that the Bishop, on occasion of
the Muskoeee banquet, denounced Con-
gresham Davenport for any purported
anti-Catholic utterances. The Bishop
made no such speech as the Phoenix at
tributes to him
The sentiment of the Catholics towards
the attempt to entangle their Bishop in a
controversy over a remark falsely attrib-
uted to Congressman Davenport is well
reflected in the following letter written
Mr. Davenport by prominent Catholic,
and one of Muskogee's best known public
men, Immediately after the reeretable
article appeared in the Creaeer organ:
"On two occasions the Phoenix, of this
city, has published statement to the
effect that at recent meeting you deliv-
cred an address in which you spoke dis
paraginely of the Catholic church. | am
confident that the Phoenix has misquoted
you, and | want to assure you that the
publication is doing you more good than
harm among our people, who are opposed
to having their church dragged in the mire
of partisan politics. | was present at the
dinner given here last evening to our
Bishop, and want to assure you that
nothing came up that would in any way
reflect upon you or your work as public
official"
