general opinion among tho delogatcs was
that In all cities whcro tbero are branches

that a special committee bo appointed to
Democracy's
The Jackson day banquet ot tho Jack-
sontan club ot Nebraska brought out
plainly ono fact which certain member of
that olub would not believe, and that is
that tho time Is not ripe for a revolution
In Nobraska against tho power ot William
J". Brynn. According to members of that
organization outsldo of Omnha an Impres
sion moro or less founded upon fact has
gained currency that tho organization has
bocomo tired of loslns tho loaves and fishes
of .successful campaigns In tho struggle to
remain truo to tho peerless leader, nnd that
tho domluant factors of tho organization
woro ready to worshluat tho feet of Ilaal
otherwise tho eastern democracy In tho
hopo of winning a victory In the campaign
of 1904.
If any Huch schemo SCas contemplated it
received no encouragement ut the banquet.
Every mention of tho namo of Bryan wan
tbo occuslon for outbursts ot npplnuso not
exceeded by anything heard when the Ne
braskan was hailed as the mighty chief ot
a party certain o( success.
This feeling wns no doubt accentuated
by the Informal romarkB ot Congressman
Ball of TexaB In the club rooms In tho ntt
ernoon. Tho tllncuaslou had turned upon
tho futuro of tho party nnd Mr. nail said:
"Tho democratic party of tho nation must
cliocee between defeat of principles or de
feat of party bo long as It Is necessary to
carry tho stato of Now York In 'order to
eloct tho president of tho United States.
New York domocrots arc loyal to the party
ns long ns they aro permitted to manage
tho party, to name Its candidates and to
dlctato Its policy, When tho success of tho
democratic party means tho nomination of
Wall street speculators Now York can bo
expected to go democratic; when It means
that an attempt will ho mado' to carry out
tho principles ot tho democratic party, the
most honored democrats of tho Emplro
stato will either bolt tho ticket or sulk' In
their tents. Tho south Is ready-to do al
most anything for democratic success, hut
Its eyes nro open and whllo even with a
New York man ns a candldnto tho states
would probably go democratic, thero Is no
certainty that they could bo made to en
dorse such n nomination (n a democratic
convention,"
Speaking of the conditions In Ohio from
a democrats standpoint, W. S. Thomas, a
man who resigned tho position of chatrma'h
of tho state central committee ot that party
In order to attend the national convention
of 1900, and who during two campaigns has
supported Mr. Ilryan, said: "I ennnot sea
what tho democratic party will do In 1904.
Mr, Bryan Is an honest and able democrat,
but ho has been dofcated twice, and tho
policy which he stood for has been repu
diated an many times by he American peo
ple In Ohio Tom Johq Is looked upon
as n man who plays to tu .grandstand. Ho
Is .not comldcred as an ah.- 'statesman. He
gots up and says to an '(Jlence: 'Yes;
I'm rich; made so by laws which havo given
me an ndvnntngo over tho nverng's man. I
am opposed to theso laws nnd want to see
them repealed.' The people cheer this
sentiment and then go away and think

A. W. Patch, Doston.
A resolution was adopted asking congress
to pass tho puro food bill. In speaking on
nbout It. When thoy begin to think thoy
get aliad taste In their mouths, they can
not understand this kind of talk. If It Is
honest, It Is foolish, and tho people do not
think that Tom Johnson Is a fool. At the
same time ho advocates a good many Ideas
which nro correct. His Idea on tho equal
ization of 'taxation is endorsed not only by
tho democratic, but by many republicans.
Ilut with all ot this ho has the reputation
ot being a faddist, and as a rule tho dem
ocratic party has had enough of fads, Ohio
democrats nro experiencing hard times.
Lnat fall thoy nominated ono ot tho bent
men In the stato, Colonel Kllbcurne. Ha
was defeated by on overwhelming volo, nnd
wo nro wondering what we will have to do
to carry tho state when such a raun as ho
goes' down to defeat."
Ono of tho old lino democrats who did
not nttend tho banquet, although present
In tho house was W. H. Whcoler of Dps
Moines, president, of the Iowa Stato Trav
eling Men's association. But three demo
cratic votes aro cast In am! ot tho precincts
In Drs Moines nnd ono of theso Is regularly
cost by Mr. Wheeler. Whllo tho unterrl
fld Jacksonlans wero filling, tho lobby of
tho hotel, Mr. Wboelor rolloved himself of
his feelings after this manner: "I do not
like that man Bryan, I vote tho dcmocratlo
ticket every tlrao, and tho last two cam
paigns wero no oxcoptton to tho rule, hut
Bryan has done morn to Injure the demo
cratic party In eight years than tho opposi
tion parties could do in eighty. Ho Is a
man of ono Idea. When the free sliver
Issuo was killed In 1896, Mr. Bryan should
not have forced the party to parado tho
corpse four years later. Ho has estranged
voters who are lost to us forever. Ho hns
made n policy greater thnn n principle and
tho democratic party has been forced to
wander from Its traditions. I hopo Mr.
Brynn now realizes that ho Is not an availa
ble candidate for the presidency In 1901,
but I firmly believe that bo would accept
tho posltlou were tho democrats foolish
enough to tender It to him."
An oversight by 'tho speakers at tho ban:
quet caused Home comment by tbo old line
domocrots who have not forgotten all of
tho state history of tho party. Throe
speakers dealt with affairs ot the state,
Frank T. Hansom, C. J. Bowlby of Crete
and W. H. Kolllgar of Auburn, all of whom
boasted that they had lived In the state
twenty years or" more. Each paid tribute
to the democrats who had been elected to
ofttco In tho stato, but every one of them
apparently forgot that Nebraska had over
electod a democratic candidate tor governor.
Tlmo was when James E. Boyd would
hardly have been forgotten In a gathering
of democrats. Tho congressman from Texas
even found something to commend In tho
administration of Orover Cleveland, but In
that largo crowd not ono meutlonod the
only democratic governor ot tho stato nt
Nebraska, After tho banquet was ended
somo of the people from tho stato and a
few of tho old tlmo democrats of Omnhn
who havo not forgotten the older traditions
commented upon the falling memory of tho
younger generation who know apparently
no democratic history before the time that

Leaders of the Untcrrlfied
Know Not Where to Turn
for Guidance. -
W. V. Allen was sent to the United States
senate
LA to Insurnnco Commissioner Prlco came
up from Lincoln with an ombryotlc slate
for tho next fusion convention. Mr. Price
has picked out John B. Mcscrve, former
treasurer, as tho only candjdato for gov
ernor. This distinguished populist Is to
run. on a platform denouncing "Stueferlsm,"
or tho policy ot handling tho public funds
In a secret manner. According to Mr. Price
but two candidates havo been so far se
lected, but tho populists and democrats of
tho western part of tho stato nro clamoring
tor tho nomination of Moscrvo for Governor
nnd Frank T. Hansom for nttorney general.
When the nTattcr was mentioned tp Mr.
Ransom by tho father ot tho plnn, the In
fant democrat invited tho cx-dopuly to
guess again. When, during tho proceedings
nt the banquet hall an enthusiastic demo
crnt declared thnt tho late silver republican
would ho tho next democratic condldato for
congress from tbo Second Nebraska dis
trict Mr. Hansom did not mako tho denial
which was bis responso to Mr. Price. Be
foro tbo meeting was over, In addition to
theso evidences ot good will, Mr. Hansom
had been named for lieutenant governor
and ns United States senator when tho fu
stonlsts should comov again into power.
Tho notablo obEcnco of G. M. Hitchcock,
H. L. Metcolfo or any representative ot tho
local orgnn of fusion from the head of tho
tablo was commented uponcby many ot the
democrats from out of the city, who Inno
cently believe that tho democracy ot the
metropolis hold a continuous lovo feast,
such ns they generally sco onco a year.
Last year Will M. Maupln, n rovamped re
publican, was a star speaker on tho pro
gram. This yenr not ono of tho roprcsen-
miives or tuo local organ was on tho pro
gram nor given a seut with tho solected
fow who by reason of their position or la
bor nro considered as entitled to the prom
lnonco which goes with a seat near the
toastmoster. And this wns notinll. It was
ns much an some ot tho cool-headed lead
ers could do to keep some of the more'
effervescent members from speaking out
In meeting nnd explaining tho absenco ot
'theso people. If tho nrst word had been
snld It wojild have been tho occasion for n
eccno which would hnvo amused many while
It would havo enlightened n fow. I
Word comes from Chicago throug'h ono ot
the Illinois visitors to tho Implement deal
ers' convention that tho real reason for the
absence ot Carter II, HnrrlBOn from the
banquet was tho condition ot tho Burke
Gnhan fight In that city. Burko has been
considered tho political mentor ot Carter
Harrison, and In his strugglo against Gaban
ho was Kup'potcd to have tho support of the
mayor and his friends. But It Is said In
.Chicago and repeated In Omaha that liar
'rlson has made terms with Gahan by which
tbo mayor Is to rccelvo the support of the
followers of his former enemy In return
for support at this critical tlmo, and that
under these circumstances Burko must go
