A COMMITTEE OF WORKERS
Trying to Formulate Platform for the
Democrats to Stand On.

Baltimore June 27.-Taking things
easy was the order established by the
Democratic convention platform makers
last night, and an expected long night of
labor did not eventuate. The committee
members soon after midnight decided
that they could be ready by the time
candidates for president and riee-presi-
dent had been nominated.
An interesting development of last
nights session was that William Jen-
nings Bryan had no canned platform
to present. He took off his coat ami
rolled up his sleeves and tried his hand,
as did other members of the sub-com-
mttee. in attempting to shape the yari-
ous planks so that all could stand up
on them.
Practically all of the subcommittee
agreed that the session could not have
been more harmonious. Mr.. Bryan voiced
the same opinion and said that no one
man was writing the platform.
'lt seems to be committee of work
ers," he declared, as he started for his
hotel.

Plank.

modious room in the armory, in which
the Democratic convention is holding

sideration of the convention.

berson and Mr.. Brantley took place in
connection with an argument by Sam
uel Gompers, president of the American
Federatio nof Labor. in the interest OF
plan favorable to labor. He spoke for
the principle covered by the workman's
compensation bill, when Mr.. Culberson
raised the question as to federal juris-
diction in compensation cases.
The Texas senator and the Georgia
congressman held opposing views as to
the provisions of the bill on that point
until at last the Texan exclaimed with
marked emphasis:
"The gentleman from Georgia is en-
tirely incorrect"
"The gentleman from Georgia is en-
tirely right" responded Mr.. Brantley,
who had aided in preparing the bill.
Mr.. Gompers asked for the aeffiarma-
tion of the Denver platform on questions
affecting labor, dwelling especially on
the question of Injunction. He referred
to the recent prison sentence against
himself, John Mitchell and Frank Nor
rison for the violation of court in
junctios.
Il don't want to speak of myself
he said. "but do want to say of Mitch
ell and Morrison that they can hold
up their heads because they have done
their level best for the common better
ment and the general human uplift."
Mr.. Gompers said that while originally
a Republican he had not acted with that
party in recent years. "They didn't
play fair with the masses and / could
not play with Them he said.
'You got what you wanted at Denver.
didn't you?" asked Mr.. Bryan.

SMILE AND HUSTLE,

Smile and the world smiles with yO
KNOCK" and you go it alone:
For the cheerful grin
VIII let you in
Where the kicker" is never known.
GROWL, and the way looks dreary,
Laugh and the path is bright:
For a welcome smile
Brings sunshine, while
A frown shuts out the light.
SIGH, and you rake in" nothing,
Work, and the prize is won:
For the nervy man
With backbone can
By nothing be outdone.
HUSTLE and fortune awaits you.
Shirk and defeat is sure:
For there's no chance
OF deliverance
For the chap who can't endure
SING, and the worlds harmonious,
Grumble, and things go wrong:
And all the time
You are out of rhyme
With the busy, hustling throng
KICK, and there's trouble brewing,
Whistle, and life is gay:
And the worlds in tune
Like day in June,
And the clouds all melt away
Dedicated to the Bolter.
