bled. ..,

GOSSIP ABOUT THE PLATFORM

Sweeping Concessions to Radical
Element Are Probable. ....
BALTIMORE, June 22.-The democratic
platform builders promise to present to
the convention next week a document
that shall be short and incisive. The
number Of teeth" in it, one plank
maker said today, will depend upon the
outcome Of the struggle between the
conservative and radical wings Of the
party. On most of the. ma jority points,
however. the leaders seem agreed.
If William ]. Bryan wins his fight to
have the keynote Of the convention
sounded by a progressive chairman, Mr..
Bryan probably will be made chairman
of the resolutions committee.
In view of the republican situation and
the hints that the leaders Of a third
ticket" may appeal for support to pro-
gressive democrats, there is little doubt

DEADWooD, S. D.. June 22.-(Specsaf
Telegram)-The formation OF third.
party ticket by Roosevelt places sonl..
Dakota in a peculiar position and leaves
chance for some speculation, particu-
larly In the senatorial question.
The state went overwhelmingly for
Roosevelt. In the primaries from governor
down, all nominees on tho republican
ticket are Roosevelt men and each will
be obliged to declare himself with the
strong probability that most of them will
declare for the Roosevelt ticket, including
Sterling for senator.
This leaves the republican ticket with
no actual nominees and gives Senator
Gamble, who was beaten by Sterling, a
good chance to go before the next legis-
lature as the repGolican candidate.

good chance for his election in this

Governor Wilson's telegram to Mr..

here by the Wilson national campaign
committee.
The Wilson reply was as follows:
You are right. Before hearing of your
message l clearly stated my position in
answer to a question from the Baltimore
Evening Sun. The Baltimore convention
is to be the convention of progressives-
the men who are progressive in principle

Those national committeeman aligned
with Judge Parker analyzed the replies
of the candidates to Mr.. Bryan's note
and declared the Nebraska leader would
find little comfort in them and that he
would be compelled to make the fight
with only those delegates who Joined with
him.
Some of the leaders hoped that Mr..
Bryan could be persuaded TO withdraw
from the fight and abide by the decision
of the committee in the interest of party
harmony. There were reports that there
might be, a bolt If Judge Parker was

At the session of district court
that convened Monday morning in
Georgetown the charge of Grand
Larceny against A. w. D owd
and Mrs. E. S. Tucker as bailees
was dismissed, the prosecutors
having failed to make good. These
parties conducted the Cash Gro
Gerry in one of the rooms now oc-
cupied by the Mines Supply co m
pany and traded their stock for a
house and lot in Denver. They
were subsequently arrested on the
charge of getting away with some
of the goods of the purchasers.
During their business experience
here everything pertaining to
their trade relations seemed to be
conducted along good business
lines and they made many friends
hence their arrest came as q great
surprize. After the case was dis
missed they made application for
the goods and the Judge took the
matter under advisement.
