THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS
-(From The Montana Record-Herald)

N@N ~NNNA@ ASOA0 ANNAAO
The Democrats, in nominating former Ambassador John w.
Davis of West Virginia for president, selected a man whose ability
has been demonstrated ~ his employment as a lawyer by the
famous banking and Wall street firm of J. Pierpont Morgan &
Co. Morgan & Co. is one of the most powerful monied concerns
in the world. It is the greatest of the dominating forces of Wall
street, and the progressives, liberals and radicals all agree that
Wall street rules the country. Mr.. Davss law firm is on the
Morgan & Co. payroll.
The democratic convention no doubt was very tired and
disguised when it nominated Mr.. Davis, and hundreds of the
delegates had gone home. A New York newspaper of July 4 had
d front page story saying that 500 delegates and alternates had
departed by then, and that some of them were "perilously near
being broke" The conventions indifference to everything, after
the elimination of McAdOo and Smith from the battle, is indicated
by its unanimous willingness to go out into the unknown hinter-
lands of the Far West to Montana for a vice presidential nominee
IT they had been using finesse, strategy, policy or tactics of any
kind they would not have done that. But they were so weary
they would have nominated Walsh had he lived in Papeete or
TimbuctOO. Al Smith had licked McAdoo, and with them the
only worth while event was over.
Mr.. Davis in his initial remarks to the millions of busted
farmers and struggling people of the United States assures them
he is for liberal principles" and against special privilege" So
is his employer, the firm of ]. P. Morgan & Co., in the left eve
OF a cockatoo. William Jennings Bryan, the peerless leader" of
the Democrats, who carried Georgia for the Job of delegate with
a whOOp, was so convinced of that, and of Mr.. Davis liberalism.
that he nearly had a fit when Davis was first mentioned as a
compromise dark horse.
Bryan told the delegates that Davis connections in the East
made him desirable there, but that LA Toilette will take more
votes from Davis than he will from the Republicans" And. ironv
OF fate, the wearied and totally Disguised convention selected
Bryanis brother, Governor c. W. Bryan of Nebraska, to be Davis
running mate, and now the boy Orator of the Platte" will have
TO work Tor the hated Wall Street attorney for president. Gosh.
That's hard luck.
In this campaign, it is plain that it will be hard to enthusp
the great struggling population of America with the Wall Street
attorney and William j. Bryan's brother. It is apparent that
the indifference OF the convention that selected them will he
SHARED oy the puphc, and that their defeat is a foregone conclusion

SETH ORRIN BANNER
TO DIE BY HANGING

Continued from page One)
confirming the date of execution and
the manner of its carrying out.
A specially constructed rope of
silken texture, and guaranteed to
stand the strain of a drop of over
one thousand pounds a distance of six
feet, has been received by Sheriff
Smith from the manufacturers, and
has been tested with a section of ION
crete culvert weighing several times
that of the condemned man. The
death watches are working regularly
eight-hour shifts in the real apart
ment of the Jail where Banner is
confined, and they have the condemn
ed mar under constant surveillance
for fear he may injure himself or
otherwise attempt to defeat justice.
Banner grows more and
unsettled almost hourly as the time
for his execution draws near. When
apparently unmatched he runs his
fingers up through his straight black
hair, slaps his chest and knees and
walks nervOusly up and down and
back and forth in his cell in the
manner of a Gagged wild beast who
resents his incarceration. Speculation
is rife as to his probable condition
after the death warrant is read to
him early Friday morning, and
whether or not he will be able to walk
unaided to the death trap after his
arms have been strapped to his sides
by deputies before the fatal walk out
of his cell, through the bull-pen cor
ridOr and into the death chamber.
That he will make a full and COM
plete confession Of his crimes is the
belief of many, while others are reas-
Onably certain that the Indian blood
in his veins will prevail and he will
go to his death in the same stole and
Indifferent manner that has marked
his entire incarceration during the
past year.
Unless his relatives, of whom he
has a sister, Mrs. Mabel Moody, of
Portland, Ore, demands the body for
private interment, the burial will be
made in the county plot in the Boze-
man cemetery.
Only twelve citizens, besides the
doctors, undertaken and deputies, will
be allowed to view the actual hanging.
These men have all been selected So
it will be useless for others to request
admission from the sheriff.

Defendant Doesn't Appear

The completion of this trial saw
the winding up of the July jury term
and the dismissal of the jurors. One
Of the remarkable features of the
case was the fact that the defendant
failed to introduce a single witness
or a scintilla Of evidence in his own
behalf. Although he was thought to
have been present as an unregistered
guest in one of the Bozeman hotels,
ne did not make his appearance in
the courtroom, and neither he, nor

were called to the stand, in their own
