BRYAN BEATEN IN
HIS OWN STATE
County Option Plan Turned Down
by Nebraska Convention.

Grand Island, Neb., July 2S.-Will-
lam j. Bryan, for eighteen years the
leader of the Democratic party in Ne
braska and national figure in Demo
cratic politics, was literally thrown
out of his party when the Democratic
state convention refused to insert
Bryan's county option plank in the
party platform.
The convention rejected the plank
by the vote of 1913 for to CAT against.
Bryan had been placed on the com
mittee on resolutions. He brought
into the convention minority report
for the adoption of a county option
plank, as follows: 1--WE favor county
option as the best method of dealing
with the liquor question"
On this resolution Bryan made the
speech that was expected to swing
the convention to his favor.
But when Bryan arose to talk he
knew he was beaten. He spoke for
one hour and half. His speech was
a plea to the Democratic party to
save itself. He dealt with the mis-
takes the party had made and warned
it not to make the mistake of avoid.
ing the liquor question.
At the close Of the address Bryan
intimated that he was through with
directing the party. He stated that he
had put the question up to them, but
they had turned him down and now
they could take the consequences.

third ballot.
Then Cox, yielding to the inevitable,
cast the ninety-one Hamilton votes
for Harding and that finished it. Goa

The withdrawal of James r. Garfield

that clung grimly to the undeyeloped
