BRYAN AT CHICAGO.

The most significant occurrence at the Chicago
convention the ovation given Bryan Friday by
the delegates to that convention, and the reception
he has been rendered by the people who throng the
hotels No applause given Taft, when c.udious-
ly worked up by the Taft claquers in this convention
which is to be forced to nominate him, has equaled
that spontaneous applause given the Commoner as
he took his seat among the newspaper men at Fri
days session.
Bryan's Democracy appeals to the Republican
convention more than Tafts Republicanism. 1t is
so because Bryan is a Democrat, while Taft is a
Bourbon 1t is the people who are stirring not mere
partisans.
Votes be machine-made, nominations can
be machne-made; but public sentiment cannot be
steam-rolled. 1t can be held in check for a time,
but the higher the dam to retain it the greater will
be its force when it finally breaks through
Bryan's reception at Chicago is the handwriting
on the wall y: the Republican council chamber. 1t
should prove guidepost to the Democrats now
assembling at Baltimore.

PARKER AND ROOT.

Senator Root and Alton B. Parker are both hon.
orable gentlemen They tower above the uttermost
reaches Of Penrose or Murphy. They may also
escape the accusation of being demagogic But
each Of them represents that school of politics which
is generally known as "reactonary"
Because Root was honorable, sincere, and re-
dictionary he was selected to be permanent chair
man Of the Chicago convention. But his selection
was determined by Penrose, Mulvane, and Big
Steve" not by the people of the party nor by even
committee that reflected the people.
Because Parker is honorable, sincere, and re-
dictionary, he was selected by eight weknown re-
actionares of the Democratic party to be the chair
man at Baltimore. Mack (Murphys mani, Johnston
Uoe Baileys man), Taggart Sullivan, and kindred
spirits picked Parker.
AS in Roots case, Parker, the individual, does
not count The crowd back Of him and the ideas
for which he stands is the ISSUE The Democratic
party cannot afford to tune its convention to key
note Of reactionary, no matter how pleasing his
personality.

Calls Attention to the Noxious Odors
From Dumps.

To the Editor of THE TIMES:
Residents along the great open sewer
euphemistically called Eastern branch
or Anacostia river, have been suffer-
ing from depressing odors, probably
stencil caused by dumping or smoke
from burning dumps. For many years
this has been of frequent occurrence,
and the period of continuous endur-
ance has often been about a week.
When the weather Is sultry or when
the wind Is from the east, this mala-
rous epidemic Is especially hard upon
a large population which is all the more
exposed when compelled by the great
heat, to keep the windows open.
These marshy bottoms of Washing
ton in general are notorious in story
and records as plague spots breeding
disease and death for thousands, and
yet. we have added to this air already
insalubrtous. these effuvia from the
dump as concentration of the dose of
defilement of the air. The injury from
the avoidab BILE part of this unwholesomc
pollution, is intellectually great and in
all probability 1t is preventable at
small cost.
The people here have a bureaucratic
government not responsible to them and
many OF these people since the last two
Administrations, have the executive
muzzle order virtually substituted for
the inspiring first amendment to the
Constitution, and are thus without a
free voice. Talks and letters without
relief is about all they get, and it is
useless for them to expect anything
more upon their own motion unless
friends with powerful voices that are
heard and respected by the powers
that be-" second their efforts. Can The
Times be induced to take a smell and
then report to the Government how bad
this unnecessary evil is. l.

VICTORY THAT MEANS DEATH,

1t was fatal victory the forces of Special Priv
ilege won at Chicago Friday when by the narrow
margin of two votes they carried the motion to dis
franchise the entire State of California.
1t in truth the "acid test" of the party in
convention assembled. In spite of the votes of the
Southern Staes the Territories and the seventy-odd
stolen delegates, the crack of the party whip and
the commands of the bosses the great convention
almost rghted ITSELF almost purged its roll of theft
But back of California's two delegates, there
stood the fourteen stolen from Washington, under
the same circumstances; and the bunch stolen from
Texas, and then-some might move to recon-
slider the theft of the six from Arizona and where
would Tafts majority be? Where would the steam
roller be? Where would the power of Special Priv
iege be?
1t truly was the last stand of the Old Guard, the
final rally of Big Business. They won-but they
cannot recover from the awful cost of that one vic
tory. After such spectacle the nominee and the
platform of the convention will carry no appeal to
the people, and the election next November will
nuify all the work of the Chicago gathering.

Thinks the Recent Cat Order Beneath
the Dignity Of the COMMISSIONS

To the Editor OF THE TINES:
Three times has the writer essayed
her sentiments on paper, ancnt the cat
controversy. and three times has she
thrown them in the scrap basket, and
now, In few words, she would go on
record for The old-time humanities, and
the old-time hearth, With PUSSY curled
upon It. giving an air Of hien etre to all
her surroundings. Our horses are half
muzzled, our cats are killed! This Is,
indead, blood-thirsty age. And 1t
seems go beneath the dignity Of our
Commissioners whose leisure must, in
deed, be great, to legislate against the
poor, inoffensive cats! II these august
gentlemen be not careful they will be

Between pitching hay on his Ohio
farm. watching the political game. and
indulging in other farmerlike occupa-
tions, P. B. Chase. proprietor Of the
new Chase's Theater, last week took
time to make a statement regarding his
plans for the coming season. There will
be as much difference in the bills at his
theater in the future as compared with
those OF the past, as there Is between
the Chase's of today and the Chase's OF
last season.
In brief, the change involves a radical
program departure, consisting In the
abandonment, wherever possible, Of the
effort to give exactly eight acts every
week. The object in view. Mr.. Chase
states, is to increase the entertaining
value OF the bill, regardless of the num-
Der OF features concerned.
Eight acts do not always make a
satisfactory BILL" Mr.. Chase said. but
It was not until last season that features
were presented sufficiently meritorious
and lengthy to be given necessary
time as IN the case of Norworth and
Bayes, in their enjoyable fantasy, the
play of "Everywife" and others. His
experiments then. a number of bills
serving the purpose, convinced Mr..
Chase that he made no mistake in con-
cluding that the number OF acts cuts
no figure with the public, which mani
festly perfers four acts which fill up the
measure to eight acts, which only half
fill 1t.
AS a consequence. many OF the new
bills at Chase's next season will be
made up of four acts, two of which will
be along the lines heretofore presented.
short, clever, and light in character,
and the other two will consist of pre-
tent!ous productions of musical COM
ed1es comic operas, extravaganzas, spec
| tacles, farces or dramatic plays. AS an
evidence that his action Is based upon
the popular demand for such entertain
| mept. Mr.. Chase cites David Belasco S
