WILL BRYAN BITE THE BAIT?
Ptrtinent Question Among Looal Dmorata
Orar JackBtnian Olub Inviutioa.
SILVER LEADER'S FRIENDS SAY HE WILL NOT
Denounce Action of Club In InTltlns;
Bryan as Orator aa Scheme
i to RctIt Dead Organisation.
Even In these days of "plptng- peace"
and no politics local democrats are lying
awake nights to study out new tricks In
the great game of "get-even" which they
have been playing for the last eight years,
and from events which have transpired
within the last week the suggestion is
apparent that the "unterrifled" are still
"unterrifled" and the "faithful" still faith
ful. All of which goes to show that
Bryan's friends are more determined than
ever to get the scalp of their ancient foes
and that the ancient foes are simply wait
ing for the sweet hour to come when they
shall one more Insert the harpoon Into
their enemies.
Last Saturday night the Jacksonlan club
elected Its officers for the new year and
planned for Its annual banquet January 7,
intending to make this the biggest func
tion of the kind ever held. The Jackson
Ions at this meeting determined to Issue
an Invitation to WlllianV Jennings Bryan,
Joseph W. Folk and John Llnd. proposing,
however, that Mr. Bryan should be the
foremost orator at this important event.
"KUaer" in the Woodpile.
The uniiliited may not have perceived in
this apparent act of cordial friendship and
esteem for the distinguished Nebraskan
anything sinister on the part of the Jack
sonlans. But friends of Mr. Bryan did.

They saw a neat piece of political chicanery
and they are quick to resent what they
regard as an attempted effrontery to Mr.
Bryan's friends and a gross presumption
upon the credulity, of Mr. Bryan.
"Who are these Jacksonlans who Invite
Mr. Bryan to come here and address them
on this occasion?" asks a Bryan man, and
In his own language he proceeds to an
swer his own question. "They are the
same men who have fought him at every
turn of the road since he became the
party leader In 1896; the men who organized
the 'Success league' here In Omaha last
spring as a means of resisting the Bryan
Influence and knocking Mr. Bryan and his
friends throughout the campaign; the
Herdmans, Howell, Weaver In fact, the
same old crowd. Weaver Is re-elected
president, and who has been more hostile
to Mr. Bryan than Frank L. Weaver?
"You ask me if this does not mean the
Jacksonlans are through fighting Bryan
and a determination y join with him in
the future affairs of the party? No, It
means nothing of the kind: And not a
solitary friend of Mr. Bryan will be de
ceived by it.
Jacksonlan Clnb Political Corpjs.
"Tho Jacksonlan club is a political corpse
Its funeral was held on November 8, when
Mr. Parker, who was nominated against
the most powerful influence Bryan could
command, led the party to the most over
whelming slaughter It had ever suffered.
But this corpse resists death and In its
ghoulish attempt to revive itself, it haa
picked out Mr. Bryan to Infuse life into
Its nostrils. It would be a fine thing for
Mr. Bryan to come here and lend his
presence and influence to this JacksonJun
function, sending the Impression broadcast
over the.country that after all, even though
Parker was burled In the battle of ballots,
the anti-Bryan Jacksonlan club is still alive
and able to command from Its cardinal
enemy such respect as tlraw him before
its banquet board oa . chief orator of
the day!
"Well, when William J. Bryan gets to
be this kind of a fool I want somebody
to tell me. For Mr. Bryan to accept this
audacious Invitation would be a personal
affront to every friend he has In Omnha
and the state, but especially In Omaha,
where they did all they could during the
campaign to overcome tho subtle Influence
of this crowd.
"There is no spirit of conciliation or
union or reorganization In this move at all;
It Is simply as I have said, a bold attempt
to get Mr. Bryan to infuse life Into this
defunct body of his political enemies. And
after this Is over these fellows would fight
Mr. Bryan just as they always have done.
I predict Mr. Bryan will not be at thut
banquet. Watch and see if I am a good
prophet."
Announcements of tbe Theaters.
This afternoon and evening will see the
closing performances of "Glittering Gloria"
