BRYAN NOT CAST DOWN
BY PARKER'S VICTORY
Declares Vote Showed the At
titude of the Convention.
Not Disclosing Plans.

BALTIMORE Md, June o6-Mr.
Bryan left the convention hall by a rear
entrance soon after the vote on the tenn
porary craftsmanship was announced yes
terday afternoon and resumed confer
ences in his rooms. Last night he said:
THE vote in convention shows the at
titude of the convention and my speech
shows my view on the subject. l have
no statement to make. I await develop
ments without Impotence I do not
know Of anything that needs to be
added"
The Nebraskan did not attend the night
session of the convention to hear Judge
Parkers speech. but. remained in his
rooms to attend to correspondence and
confer with his friends. Later Mr..
Bryan purposed joining in the delibera-
tons OF the platform committee. :
Mr.. Bryan was apparently in cheerful
humor Notwithstanding his defeat. He
carefully refrained from giving any sug-
gestion as to his future course Of action
in the convention.
''Will you carry on the fight for the pro-
gressives on the floor of the convention?"
he was asked. g. -. i
Il hope to be at the convention, but
do not care to outline any program"
Would you care to make a statement
of any planks which you will propose?"t
No" ~ -.
Have there been. any requests made
upon you from western delegates for any
particular planks? Say, fsr instance, on
Womans Suffrage?"
II have had no requests made upon me
for any planks. There have been two or
three suggestions handed me, but l have
not read them as yet"
Some have suggested that your ex-
periencc today might make you less in
terested in the present convention?"
II can tell you from time to time. what
degree Of, interest 1 may take without
outlining it in advance"
But you are going to stay here, are
you not?''

for five days, and / guess we will get
our moneys worth by occupying them

DEMOCRATS CONE HERE.
Many Unable to Find Accommoda
lions in Baltimore.

A big overflow from the convention
crowds in Baltimore is filing the Wash
ington hotels. Hundreds of the visitors
and a large number Of the delegates and
alternates to the convention are seeking
comfortable quarters in the National
Capital. even though they have to travel
forty miles from the scene Of action to do
so. Many conferences were held yester-
day evening in hotel Hobbies by men who
are taking part in the convention.
Today the trains running from Wash
ington to Baltimore on all lines were
crowded to the limit. and many specials
were put on. 1t is expected that the
crowds in Washington will increase day
by day, as the visitors to the convention
seek to see the sights of the capital, as
well as to find accommoda tons which
they are not finding in Baltimore.

About 600 badges and admission cards
for honorary sergeants-at-armsa and other
convention officers went astray yesterday
somewhere between the factory and the
convention hall.
There were about that number OF dis
appointed and angry men standing in line
before the closed and guarded door of Col
John l. Martin, sergeant-at-arms of the
convention, for the greater part Of the
morning.
This was. the same crowd which was
there Monday morning at o'clock, Mon
day afternoon at 6 o'clock and Monday
evening. The tickets were officially given
up as lost. 1t Is likely that the 600 men
holding commissions and orders for ad-
mission tickets and special officer badges
will not get them before the convention is
over.
Baltimoreans have the fever Not the
typhoid. of course But most of the
citizens are devoting their spare mo-
ments to securing collection OF
badges and buttons Hardly a Balti-

started his collection. And the chill

than the Bryanites, and the peerless one
couldn't quiet them. 1t was evident they
had plenty of noise stored up, for when
Mr. johnson of Texas got off that bon

at loud yelping were smashed. That's a
strong combination. Repeat that one SEN

No one who saw Alfalfa Bill from the

BALTIMORE, June 26.-Judge Parker
In his speech as temporary chairman
of the democratic convention said, in
part:
Mr.. Chairman and Gentlemen of the
Convention: Last week in Chicago there
met a great party. the purpose OF
which was to save the party from
destruction: here in this city the demo-
cratic party meets for the purpose OF
helping the country. In that conven-
ton. inside of it and outside of it. there
were heard the words of liar thief,
robber.' .corruptionist.' 'briber'; but no
such words will be uttered in this
democratic convention.
I'VE have had a little difference here
today. a question of men. but. my fell
low-citizens. there was nothing said
on that occasion by any of the princi-
pal debaters that was at all severe or
intended to be unkind. If for moment
/ thought that the chief speaker was
a little bit harsh 1 remembered on the
other hand those three magnificent
struggles that he had made for the
democratic party in this country. l
realized that this meant much to him,
and that if he was mistaken with
reference to my position. as l believe
he was. it was my duty to forgive
it and to stand with him in this con-
yention.

NEW MARKETS
F0RFRU|T
CROP
Full Output Means a Fight for Other
Territory.-Eastern Fields Will
Be Entered.-Weightier Ar
gument for Registered
Packers and Schools.

II is now an admitted fact that a
full fruit crop, which will be a much
larger output than hitherto shipped
from this valley, means that new
markets must be found. To try to
unload 1t all in our present territory
according to those in touch with the
situation, would result in an over
supply and a tendency toward low
cred prices.
New markets mean eastern or for
eign markets. So far, very few car
loads of our apples have been sold in
the east. The east already is accus-
toned to the thorough methods OF
packing of the northwest. To gain
footing in the east, which our in
creased output absolutely demands,
necessitates an advance in our pack
The Grand valley has the quality in
the fruit; but, without the inviting
appearance of the pack, the perman-
ent advantage of quality is lost or
obscured in new markets.
This situation gives greater i'm
petus than before to the campaign
for better methods of packing. That
there is sentiment in favor of an
advance in the lower valley as well
as here is shown by the following
statement from Geo. NJ. List OF
Fruita, manager of the big Rosedale
orchard and trained horticulturist
being a graduate of the famous Per-
due University of Indiana:
Il have been noting with interest
the position taken by The Sentinel
in regard to the Improvement of our
apple pack. With the prospects we
have before us of getting II bumper
crop this season, it is high time we
were beginning to think of how we
are going to handle il, and what
style of pack will best appeal to the
market and give us the best returns,
considering the time and expense oil
putting it up.
II would like to see our associa-
tions take stand for better pack
and then institute an educational
campaign, possibly by means of pack
ing school, to get the growers and
packers acquainted with this pack,
and have inspectors in the field dur
ing the packing season to give in
structions as well as to inspect.
Each box of apples going out of
the valley should have on it the num-
ber of apples in tnat box, the num-
ber of the packer, as well as the num-
Der of the grower, the number of the
packer to be issued by the assocla-
tion and represent to that packer his
license to practice.
1T may not be practical the first
season to try to layer and number all
grades and all varieties, but | think
we should at least endeavor to layer
and number the extra fancy of our
better varieties, then gradually work
into the others if the markets re-
spond.
81 wish again to commend The
Sentinel for the part they are TAX
ing in endeavoring to educate the
growers as to the advantages of
better pack, for it is only by educa-
tion that we can hope to accomplish

A passenger train, en- route from

of reaching that point to warn the

Standing on the bank, the man re

Finally he heard an answering shout
