BRYAN'S STAND ALARMS.
Report That Ncbraskan Will Join
Wilson Starles Clark Men.

| Warrington. June Alarm was
felt in three Democratic camps today
when friends of William ]. Bryan
passed the word along at the Capitol
and at various headquarters that GOV.
Woodrow Wilson would at the prop
er time, receive Colonel Bryan's ec-
tive support and that the weight IF
his influence would be depended upon
To assure the Governors nomination
at Baltimore.
This information came so straight
from Lincoln. Neb.. 1t Is said. that the
| friends of Speaker Clark. Governor
| Harmon and Congressman Under
wood made no efforts to discredit the
report. They spent good deal of
time talking il over and calculating
upon the effect of an open alliance
between the Bryan and Wilson forces.
Up To this time Colonel Bryan has
been neutral In his support of Speak
er Clark and Governor Wilson. In
one state he would throw his in
| fiuence to the Speaker and in another
he would line up his friends behind
Wilson. In this fashion ne has dem
onstrated his willingness To stand
with any progressive in his party.
According To statements by friends
OF Colonel Bryan. the Nebraskan is
convinced that the time is approach
ing when he must part company with
Speaker Clark. Bryan has never ,or-
given William Randolph Hearst for
bolting the Democratic party i'm two
out of three campaigns i'm which the
Commoner was the Democratic can
didate Hearst is the leading fac
tor in the Clark campaign and many
ot the clark campaigners are giving
the New York publisher credit for q
large part Of the Clark success. Par
ticularly is this true of Illinois.

phatic statements Of his friends. will.
before the Baltimore convention is

The child of today is the man
of tomorrow. Good music in the
home hastens the child's appreci-
alton of all that is best in music.
The children growing up have
the time now to secure an invalu-
able musical training which may
be fortune to them later on in
life. This places responsibility
upon every parent which cannot
be avoided; Newer opportunities
for the children than the parents
had in their youth is becoming a
