Fifth Regiment Armory, Baltimore,
June 25.--Defeat came to William ].
Bryan today
In the most important battle OF his
political career the Nebraskan lost,
He staked his name and reputation
against that Of Judge Parker, Of New
York, the latter backed by all the
great conservative leaders Of New
York, Illinois, Indiana, Georgia and
the East
Parker was elected temporary chair
man of the Democratic convention.
Bryan was steam rollered, much the
same as Colonel Roosevelt was at Chi
cago, and by relatively the same
forces Of conservatism, but he went
down with flying colors, fighting to
the last, and both. he and his oppo
nent realized that today's fight was
far from conclusive. Bryan stated
before entering the hall that II de-
feated In the fight for the chairman
ship he would come right back with
a platform fight.
Bryan will be Nebraska's member OF
the resolutions committee, and he will
renew his fight for a platform that is
really progressive. One result Of to-
days fight was the open break be-
tween the Clark and Bryan forces.
The fight was marked by peculiar
stragetlc maneuTers by the progrea-
siyes. Bryan nominated as his choice
for temporary chairman his running
mate OF four years ago, John W. Kern,
Of Indiana, Kern made dramatic
appeal to Parker from the platform to
withdraw in the interest Of harmony.
But Parker sat back In his chair and
refused to respond to the appeal.
As soon as the official vote was am
nounced as having been $40 for Park
er and SOC for Bryan--totals that
slightly disagreed with all unofficial
ilgures-senator Luke Lea Of Ten
nessee, moved to make the election
unanimous. There was a storm Of
noes from the floor and the motion
was never put.
Mack appointed Senators Stone, OF
Missouri, and Lea Of Tennessee, and
Delegate Hudspeth, Of New Jersey a
committee to escart Judge Parker TO
the stage. They performed their for
NAL function amid a volley Of cheers

In his keynote speech as temporary
chairman, Judge Parker said;
"We meet while the hills yet echo

cry. treachery and corporation, and
our ears are weary with the din OF
the articulate shrieking and passion

without exception, men of such lofty
mien that we meet immune from the

convention and privileged to dis
Charge a solemn public duty, calmly,
deliberately, seriously.
1.-THE cause of government by the
people the world over has been ma
terially checked by the disgraceful
brawl which terminated in the bed
lam of Chicago.
Every good citizen has been
shamed by the brutality and the
abuse which characterized this wran-
gle between a president and an ex-
president. Gratitude, friendship,
party loyalty patriotism and com
mon decency were forgotten in the
tussle.
"The assault upon the unwritten
prohibition against third term
made in the wild scramble for the
Republican nomination warns us Of
the vital necessity of Incorporating
in our constitution a safeguard
against repeated terms.
In the, very beginning of our con-

delegates participating that safety re-
Quired a constitutional limitation Of
the period of years one man might

who met deserved defeat, once recog-
nized the third term tradition and
acknowledged its application to his
situation.

WILLIAMSBURG.
Funeral of Enos F. Walker Was Held
Tuesday Afternoon.

Simple but impressive rites marked
the last obsequies of the late Enos +
Walker, whose funeral services Were
held from his late residence on Prospect
street at 2 p. m. Tuesday. The oflieiat'
ing clergyman was the Rev. John Irons
of the Congregational church, who gave
fitting eulogy of the deceased as al
most the last of long line of old-time
! Willamstownians whose incorruptible
integrity and sterling worth had done
so much to give the town an enviable
reputation far and wide. Mr.. Walker
was converted in great revival carried
on by Rev. Pliny Fisk Barnard "a years
ago and had ever since been a staunch
and true member of the Congregational
church, ever ready to spend and be spent
in the service of his Lord and for the
good of his fellow man. He was espe-
cially kind in time OF sickness, and his
ministrations and unobtrusive helpful
ness in time of need have been in evil
dence in scores of homes for as many
years. Following the Civil war, he car
ried on a large shoe shop, employing
many hands and doing work for custom
ers from near and far, until the era of
the shoe machine rendered shops of this
kind everywhere imperative on a large
scale. He and his wife had lived in
their present place for As years, save
for about two years spent in Barre vii
lage, and for 80 years previous in a
house only few rods distant, hence
for three generations his form had been
a familiar figure on the streets of Will
liamtown and hi voice familiar sound
in the councils of church and civic af
fairs.
Mr.. Walker leaves a wife, Laura Dav-
export Walker, three sons, Frank A. and
Willard i. of Barre, and George ID. of
this place, and one daughter, Alice ID.
of Williamstown. Another daughter,
Martha H., died several years ago A
brother, Rufus, lives at Moline ILL.,, and
spent some weeks in town three years
ago. at which time Mr.. and Mrs Walker
celebrated their golden wedding.
Among the ut-of-town people present
at the funeral were Frank A. and VIII
lard Z. Walker. with their families, of
Barre; M. Il. Rurnham and daughter, |
Florence, of Waterbury; Geo. Lyon and
