BRYAN FROWNS
ON CONFERENCE
PROPOSED MEETING OF NATION
AL LEADERS is GIVEN COLD
SHOULDER BY NEBRAsKAN.

LINCOLN, Neb., Oct 19.-The idea
of Democratic national conference,
which has been given some promi-
nence in the East of late, is rebuked
by VIM. j. Bryan in an article in his
Commoner, in which he wants to know
who would do the inviting and who
would attend? How could we get
more representative body than the
last Democratic Convention" The
article continues
1T adopted a platform and out
lined a policy which we indorsed by
the Democrats of the country. There
were a few Democrats who were not
in harmony with the platform adopt
ed, and some of them did not support
the ticket. They might be in favor
of conference, but what influence
would such a conference have, except
to sound note of discord? The
value of the conference depends en-
tirely upon those who attend it. What
assurance would we have that any
national conference would be sufi-
GENTLY representative of the masses
to speak with authority? State con-
ferences are much more defendable
than national conference, because
State conferences can be more easily
attended by the mass and file than a
national conference.
THE people who would be most apt
to attend a national conference, II 1t
we're open to all, would be the very
people who could not go as delegates
o a representative Democratic gath
ering-namely, the men who are pecu-
liarily interested in defeating the pop
liar will"

JUkIES FROM NON
TOBACCO COUNTIES
FEDERAL COURT TAKES AN UN-
USUAL COURSE IN DAM.
AGE SUITS.

CINCINNATI, o., Oct. 19.-Prelim
mary steps taken in the United States
District Court at Covington Monday
in the several suits of Independent
manufacturers against the Burnley To
bacco Society," in which damages ag
gregating over $75O,000 are sought by
the PLAINTIFF, resulted in an announce
ment by Judge Cochran that he in.
tends that the juries / nall of these
cases shall be selected from the east
ern part of the State, the non-tobacco
growing counties.
The defense, which is headed by
United States Senator W. 0. Bradley,
asked that the cases be transferred
to the Frankfort Court for trial, al
leging that the headquarters of the
Society are in that district. Judge
Cochran took the motion under advise
ment.
The plaintiffs, several firms of So
called independent manufacturers
from Ohio, Kentucky, Pennsylvania
and Virginia, allege that the Kentucky
hurley pool resulted in their having
to pay largely in excess of the regu-
lar price for hurley tobacco, and dam
ages are claimed to be due on that
account

WRIGHT BIPLANE
BEATS EXPRESS
TRIES TO RUN MACHINE WITH.
OUT GASOLINE, BUT STOPS
IN MlDAIR.

COLLEGE PARK, Nd, Oct. 90
Wilbur Wright showed that he is
merely mortal, after all, Tuesday
when, after making one unsuccessful
fight, the biplane stopped in mdi-air,
and the professor and pupil Lahm,
came ingloriously to the ground, only
to find, after hours of exhaustion. that
the big gasoline tank was empty and
that the machine had been trying to
run without its life blood. Mr.. Wright
laughed as much as he ever does
laugh, and to show that there wasn't
a thing the matter with the machine,
he beat his best previous record for
longtime flying by staying up on one
flight for nineteen minutes, five Sec
onds. He made five flights in all
The last was at 5:19 Mr.. Wright
making a false start and at $50 he
began the last fight of the day. Mr..
Wright on this flight accepted an offer
to race with a Baltimore & Ohio train.
He turned into the ewst side of his
near circle just as an express came
up on the B. & o. tracks few yards
away. Mr.. Wright was in the lead at
what might be called the start, and
more than kept it up so long as his
,oure ran parallel with that of the
rain.

PALMER WANTS
ANOTHER TERM
ANNOUNCES HIS CANDIDACY FOR
JUDGE or COURT OF CIVIL
APPEALS.

NASHVILLE. Tenn. Oct. 19.-Hon
Horace E. Palmer late last night an
nounced that he would be a candidate
70 succeed himself to the court OF
civil appeals at the next election.
The jurist's declaration came as a
surprise to many of his friends and
admirers who had hoped that he would
enter the gubernatorial race in the
coming campaign. In fact, Judge
Palmer's name was prominently put
forward in connection with the latter
office only a few days and strong
pressure was brought to bear upon
him to become a candidate.
Judge Palmer, in conversation with
reporter, at his home 1921
West End avenue, last night
said: 1T has been very gratifying to
me to have my name even mentioned
in connection with the governorship,
but after giving the matter mature
thought l have decided to announce
my candidacy for reelection to the
civil appeals bench. | am, however,
not unmindful of the great honor that
a number of admirers have oone me
by even suggesting my name for the
executive Office"
Judge Palmer's positive declaration
breaks the slate which was said to
have been made by the Patterson
contingent several days ago, and it
now seems assured that Gov. Patter-
son will enter the gubernatorial race |
for a third term.
In this case he will be forced to |
postpone his senatorial aspirations for
four years and will thus be compelled |
to make the fight against Bob" Tay
lor who is conceded to be one of the
most popular men who has ever rep
resented the Volunteer State in the
higher branch of the national con-
gress.
Many Of Patterson's supporters are
free to acknowledge that their candi-
date will have a hard time in wrest-
ing the seat now held by the able
statesman from Happy Valley"
