Awaken Restless SpOrtsmen.

and circled over the city for nearly
two hours for reasons unbeknown but
which nevertheless awoke every
sportsman in town. A heavy fog hung
over the valley that night and the
strong arc lights might have attract

1t may have been that the recent po-
litical upheaval unsettled the nerves
of these wise game fowls; but opin-
ions differ as to the cause. Citi-
zens of Dallas who were here 10
years ago remember that a flock of
these birds took refuge under similar
circumstances upon one of the public
buildings and several were killed with
clubs, and soon afterward found a
warm place in various Dallas ovens

Bryan Sides With Wilson
 Tn The HdrOey Incident

Lincoln, Neb.. January 2S.--William j. Bryan takes the side of Governor Wood row Wilson in his break with Colonel Harvey and Henry Watterson, justifying the action of the New Jersey governor in requesting that his name be withdrawn from the columns of Harpers weekly. In letter made public here tonight, MT. Bryan says:
 "The recent break between Governor Wilson and Colonel Harvey illustrates the impossibity of cooperation between men who look at public questions from different points of view. Colonel Harvey became supporter of Mir Wilson when he was selected as the democratic candi- date for governor of New Jersey. and he continued his support when Governor Wilson began 10 be discussed as candi- date for the presidency. Of course, 1t is absurd for Colonel Harvey's friends to talk about his bringing Governor Wilson out No man or paper could have made Governor Wilson available as q candidate if he himself had not attracted atten- tion, it would have been impossible for Colonel Harvey to prevent a discussion Of Governor Wilson's availability.
 But let us assume that Colonel Har- vey was doing all that he could for his choice. what the situation? His con spicuous support was not only of no ad- vantage but 1t became actually disad- vantage: it did not bring to Governor wilson the class for which Colonel liar

vey speaks, but alenated men just as honest as Colonel Harveys friends, who could not understand why Colonel Har- vey praised Governor Wilson without in- dorsing the things for which Governor Wilson stands.
 It naturally aroused suspicion as to the sincerity of one or the other and when Governor Wilson was asked the question. he admitted that he regarded the support of Colonel Harvey as q lia- bility. rather than as an asset Should he have pretended that he thought that Colonel Harvey was helping him when he WAS not? And why should Colonel Harvey complain? If he really favors Governor Wilson, he must desire 10 aid him; why should he be offended then at Governor Wilson's frankness? Is he more interested in being known as the man who made Governor Wilson famous than in advancing Governor Wilson's cause? Harvey has shown no signs of conversion If he communes with Ananais fl is not with any consciousness of blind ness He has seen no new light and when he does he will feel SO ashamed of his life long fight against progressive democracy that his first desire will be to bring forth fruits for repentance-not to assume leadership.
 'It must pain Governor Wilson 10 break with his old friends but the breaks must necessarily come unless he turns back, or they go forward.
