by all who know him and is fine
business man and working up a good
business where he is now located.
Miss McClannahan is a most estm-
able young lady, a general favori.e

who very much regret to see her leave
her home city where she was one OF
the most popular teachers in the pub

wedding breakfast was served to a
large company OF invited guests at

Well done thou good and faithful sery-

The Republican party has geared
the machinery of government to en-
rich the few at the expense of the
many. That increase of 80 per cent
in the average has taken thousands
of millions from the general public
and devoted it to the creation Of swol-

Baltimore, Md. A rapid fire,
routine session at night closed the
first day of the Democratic convention
which began with the defeat Of Will
liam Jennings Bryan for temporary
chairman. Scenes of disorder On the
floor which made further proceeding
impossible, forced the night session
and compelled Alton B. Parker to sus-
pend his keynote speech until the
evening session.
The delegates on the floor gave
/ earnest evidence of their desire to do
everything in hurry and get away
from Baltimore. The leaders had
planned to adjourn the session until
o'clock Wednesday and to have the
committees which were appointed
meet at 10 o'clock in the morning. But
the delegates would not hear of this
plan, and dsorderly protests from the
floor forced an adjournment till noon
and advanced the committee meetings
so that they were ordered to meet i'm
| mediately after the session. The dele
gates were very excited about hurry
ing things along A voice from the
floor during the discussion announced:
1--WE have no Perkins to pay our
bills"
The completion of Judge Parker S
speech and the naming of the conven-
ton committee was the sum of the
work of the night session. William
Jennings Bryan did not appear in the
convention hall during the evening.
His failure to be on hand resulted in
an almost immediate adjournment of
the resolutions committee which met
after the session in response to the
delegates demand for speed. 1t was

man. They claimed, on the other
hand, that the vote of SO given to
Mr.. Bryan indicated that he held a
/ ''veto" power in the convention which
put him in position of dominance as
to who should be the nominee. Many
of Speaker Clark's delegates openly
threw their support to the anti-Bryan
forces.
This was regarded as opening a
breach between the speaker and Mr..
Bryan which may cause the Bryan
supporters to make a bitter fight on
Clark Taken from another angle the
vote of SO many Clark adherents for
Judge Parker was interpreted as a dis
tinct bid for the support OF the con-
servative element in the convention.
This conservative element, it may
be stated, is practically prepared to
accept a radical or Progressive candi-
date. They frankly admit that 10
name a conservative or sO-called reac-
tionary, would result in strengthening
the hand of Colonel Roosevelt in his
organization Of q third party. This,
the leaders are anxious to avoid.
The turn Of political affairs in the
past few days is regarded here as
having been decidedly favorable to
Speaker Clark's candidacy. The
straight out Wilson delegates threw
their support so1idly to Mr.. Bryan in
his fight against Judge Parker. This
/ the leaders figured, would make the
. ohn in
preference to the New Jersey COVER
nor as the Progressive candidate. New
York, controlling factor in the situa-
ton, would go to Clark. The report
was based largely upon the action of
New York in voting against Bryan
The fact that the Missouri delegation
also gave Parker a majority of its
votes-22 to 14-quickly called out
reports of a coalition of interests be-
tween New York and Missouri.
This naturally led to talk of Clark
for president and a New York man
for vice president. The man men
toned most prominently in this con-
nection was Senator O'Gorman.
There was talk Also that the I'm
derwoOd forces might come into this
combination, the plan being that Mr.
! Underwood should have the speaker
ship of the house in the event of Mr.
| Clarks elevation to the presidency
| Most of the Underwood states are said
to be against Mr.. Bryan on almost any
! proposition whatever. Certain it was
that most of these states-located in
the solid South-voted against Mr.
Bryan.
The Clark people declared that with
New York and the Underwood forces
united under the speakers banner, the
| latter would have more than the nee
essary number Of votes to nominate.
1t seemed certain from the public
action of the delegates, and private
ly expressed views, that the Demo
cratic convention will nominate a Pro-
gressive candidate, and adopt Pro-
gressive platform. Some Of the lead

Baltimore, Maryland. William
Jennings Bryan having met defeat at
the hands of the Democratic national
convention, has in the opinion of
many of the party leaders, here, elm
mated himself from the race for the
presidential nomination.
The vote by which former Judge
Alton B. Parker of New York was
elected temporary chairman over Mr..
Bryan-579 to SIG was interpreted in
many ways. The Clark adherents are
openly claiming the nomination. and
there were many at the convention
who were inclined to agree that it
would either be Speaker Clark or
dark horse
Talk Of Mr.. Bryan has not ceas-
ed by any means. Some Of his friends
claim that the vote was no test; that
many of his most ardent supporters
were compelled by circumstances to
vote against him for temporary chair
