DEMOCBATISJN SESSION
Bryan's Friends in Absolute Control
of Democratic County Con
vention Last Saturday.
»
ENDORSE HIS BALTIMORE WORK
Considerable Opposition to His Balti
more Action in Convention. But
Lacked Leadership.
Harmony was the keynote harped,
upon by the leaders of Holt county
democracy at their county convention
held last Saturday. A good sized
scrap developed, however, over the
question of instructing the delegates
to the state convention to support
John C. Brynes of Columbus for state
chairman, and a resolution to so in
struct the delegation was voted down
by the convention by a vote of 29 to 14,
after addresses for the resolution had
been made by J.F. O’Donnell, T. V.
Golden and John A. Haimuii uiiu
speeches against the resolution had
been made by D. A. Doyle and J. J.
Harrington. While a resolution*in
structing the delgation was voted
down we understand that ten and
possibly eleven of the thirteen dele
gates will support the candidacy of
Mr. Brynes
The convention was called to order
and J. A. Donohoe was elected tem
porary chairman and W. A. Wheeler
of Atkinson temporary secretary.
The necessary committees were "ap
pointed and the convention adjourned
qnttl 2 o’clock.
When the convention reconvenced
at 2 o’clock the committee on per
mant organization reported that the
temporary organization be made per
manent, which report was adopted.
The committee on credentials then
reported and It was found that nine
townships were represented. Sham
rock being unrepresented upon motion
Charles Brown of that township, who
was present, was allowed a seat In
the convention to represent Sham
rock township.
Judge Harrington as chairman of
the committee on resolutions then
presented the following resolutions;
The democracy of Holt county in
convention assembled, renews and re
affirms iti allegiance to the time
honored principles of Jefferson, Jack
son, Cleveland and Bryan. We re
cognize that the all important, para
mount question confronting the peo
ple at this time is whether the Govern
ment shall be administered of, for and
by the people, or of, for and by the in
terests and we rejoice in the leader
ship in this great cause for humanity
of that great champion of human
rights, Governor Woodrow Wilson,
and heartily congratulate the people
for in him they have a champion
equal to the occasion and worthy of
the cause.
We heartily endorse the candidacy
of Governor Ashton C. Shallenberger
for United States Senator. We com
mend him for tne record that he has
made in the cause of Progressive
Government.
We unqualifiedly and unreservedly
endorse the candidacy of the entire
Democratic state, congressional, sen
atorial, legislative and county tickets.
We approve and unqualifidely en
dorse the conduct and work of our
distinguished citizen and greatest
democrat, Hon. William J. Bryan, at
the Baltimore convention. By his
patriotism, courage and great ability,
he gave to the party a platform and
candidate truly progressive, and free
from the influences of predatory
wealth, and we therefore pledge him
nur continued confidence and admira
tion.
The resolutions were adopted as
read without debate, although J. F.
O’Donnell tried to get the eye of the
uhair prior to the puttingof the motion
but failed to receive recognition.
Many of the delegates present had de
clared themselves as opposed to any
resolution being adopted by the con
vention lauding Bryan, or his action
at the Baltimore convention, but
when the resolutions were read they
lacked a leader to bring the fight be
fore the convention.
Immediately after the adoption of
the resolutions D. A. Doyle secured
the eye of the chair and moved
that a committee of five be
selected to select thirteen delegates
to the state convention. This was
objected to by John Harmon who held
that it was undemocratic for the
democrats to select their delegates in
that manner and he thought that the
committee should report their list
back to the convention and have the
convention elect them. This view
was taken by T. Y. Golden who said
that Mr. Doyle’s method of selecting
delegates was the republican method
and should not be adopted by the
democrats. He referred to the select
ion of the delegation from Douglas
county to the republican state con
vention as an object lesson of this
sort of politics. He might have also
said that the delegates to the demo
cratic state convention from Doug
las were selected in the same manner,
the selection made by Jim Dahlman
and his friends on the county com
mittee. Mr. Doyle finally accepted
an amendment that the list be referr
ed back to the convention for their
approval and the motion was adopted.
The chair named as that committee:
D. A. Doyle, N. J. Tuller, John
Moler, J. J. Harrington and William
Morgan.
Before the committee had retired
to make their selection the only real
scrap of the convention was pulled off.
J. F. O’Donell offered a resolution
lauding the work of J. G. Brynes as
state committeeman and instructing
the delegates to the state convention
to vote for his re-election as state
chairman as long as his name was be
fore the convention. D. A. Doyle,
who is always ready for a scrap and
who has not graced democratic con
ventions In recent years with his
presence, arose and protested against
the adoption of the resolution. He
said that the resolution was a direct
slap at the Peerless Leader and he
did not want to see the Holt county
delegation do anything that would in
\.nj way hamper Mr. Bryan or that
would attempt to discredit his leader
ship of the party in this state. He
said that the parties back of the reso
lution wanted to discredit Bryan for
the part he played in the Baltimore
convention and the resolution in
question was a result. Judge Har
rington also lopposed the resolutions
for the reasou he said that he did not
want the delegation to go to the con
vention as a pack of slaves bound to
the candidacy of any man. J. P.
O’Donell spoke In favor of his reso
lution and threw a few bard shots in
to some of the politicians who were
after Brynes scalp, terming them as
grafters and crooks. T. V. Golden
and J. A. Harmon also spoke in favor
of the iresolution but Mr. Doyle and
and Mr. Harrington had the conven
tion well in hand and the resolution
was defeated by a vote of nearly two
to one.
The committee recommended the
following as the delegates to the
state convention and they were elect
ed by the convention: D. A. Doyle,
J. J, Harrington, T. V. Golden, J. F.
O’Donnell, Arthur Ryan, John A.
Harmon, G. M. Daly, J. A. Donohue,
N. J. Tuller, T. J. Wilburn, J. L.
Fisher, John A. Robertson, Bob

M. H. McCarthy was re-elected
chairman of the county central com
mittee after which the convention ad
journed.

C. E. Hail, who attended the state
convention as a delegate from this
county, did not return with the
balance of the delegatihn but went on
to Chicago for a few days visit. When
he informed some of the balance of
the delegation that he was going on
to Chicago before his return they
asked him if he was going to attend
the “Bull Moose” convention. This
be strenuously and vigorously denied,
but said that he was going to visit a
brother who lives there and who has
been seriously ill for the past two
months.
NOTED AVIATOR BE HERE
During the Race Meet August 21-22
and 23rd and Will Make Two
Flights Each Day.
RARE TREAT PROMISED PEOPLE
Aviator K&ntner, Who Will Fly Here,
Was the Star ot the Chicago Meet
. Last Summer.
Secretary Ryan of the Holt county
Race Meet, which will be held In
O’Neill on August 21,22, and 23, an
nounces that he has secured for the
Meet one of the greatest attractions
ever offered the people of this section
of the state. He has closed a deal
with the Molsant Exhibition Com
pany, manufacturers and demonstra
tors of the celebrated French Mono
plane, for six exhibition flights by
one of their celebrated air artists, two
each day during the meet. This is
the first exhibition ever given by this
company In the state of Nebraska and
the company guarrantees the local
management that they will deliver
the goods.
The man who will be here Is Mr.
Harold Kantner, known as the Speed
Demon of the air, licensed pilot of
the Aero Clubs of France, Great
Britlan, and the United States Mr.
Kantner won the speed trophy at the
Chicago aviation meet last year, mak
ing a speed of 104 miles an hour, at an
altitude of 4,000 feet for twenty five
miles. He Is guaranteed by the com
pany to be the most daring, accom
plished and death defying aviator in
this country and the only man whom
the company guarrantees will present
on each day of the exhibitions the
Vilo-Plane stunt whloh Is accomplish
ed by the aviator shutting of his
moter thousands of feet in the air and
gliding by technical control of the
warping wings and elevators. This
sight is guaranteed to out-thrlll all
other aviation thrillers, as the Mono
Plane has but two wings and in these
glides, whirls and figure eights re
sembles a great dragon fly.
This promises to be one of the
greatest aviation meets in Nebraska
this year and the management of the
local raoe meet are to be congratulat
ed upon having secured a man with a
world-wide reputation as an aviator
to come here to make the flights thus
giving the people of this section an
jpportunity to see one of the wizards

The Date Set.
The date for Charles Klein’s great
play “The Lion and the Mouse’’ will
be Monday, August 19th. Manager
Donohoe has already received many
requests for seats and Indications that
this play will draw an audience that
lor size will break all records.
Advertising.
Omaha Trade Exhibit: Stop adver
tising In hot weather? Certainly not.
You have dozens, scores, possibly hun
dreds of things In your store that peo
ple need and ought to buy In hot
weather. And they will buy—provid
ed your advertising tells them the
reason why, and does this persuasive
ly, pointedly and persistently.
“The Lion and the Mouse.”
The United Play Co. in presenting
“The Lion and the Mouse’’ in this
elty, calls attention to the fact that
never in the history of the American
stage was a play produced which at
tracted such world wide attention as
did this dramatic triumph of jOharles
Klein.
It has to do with a struggle for
supremacy between a man trained in
every artifice of the world, and a
woman, using every expedient of
feminine wile.
Talks of Crops and Politics.
Sioux City News: Judge R. R. Dick
son and family and Thomas Birming
ham, president of the First National
bank, Mrs. Birmingham, Hugh Bir
mingham and John J. Boyle, all of
O’Neill, Nebr., passed through Sioux
City today in their motor cars, bound
for Lake Okobojl.
That Nebraska is alive with politics
is their report. The defection of M
F. Harrington from the democratic
party to the Bull Moose party is still
a matter of comment. Both Wilson
and Roosevelt are strong, but a camp
aign for Wilson by Bryan would carry
the state for him, they think.
Crops are in fair condition,although
the effect of the late spring is being
seen.
E. B. Whelan, J. F. O’Donnell, J.
J. Harrington, D. A. Doyle and Art
Ryan returned last Wednesday even
ing .from Grand Island, where they
had been attending the democratic
convention. From the report they
bring back it is evident that all was
not very harmonious among the dem
ocratic brethorn and some of them are
whetting their knives to get after
some of the candidates on their ticket.

Invigorate your liver, and regulate
your bowls, entirely doing away with
that miserable feeling due to faulty
digestion. Try it. Many others have

surprised at the great improvement in
the old town. Mr. Tesch is superin
tendent of tents for the Redpath

Henry Webb of Swan township was
arrested last Friday on complaint of
Walter Gillette, who alleged in the
complaint that Webb made a felon
ious assult on Henry Gillette with
the Intent to commit great bodily
injury. He was brought to this city
and appeared before Judge Oarlon in
the county oourt and had a prelimin
ary set for August 12. He was releas
ed upon 91,000 bond to appear in oourt
on above date. It is said that the
assualt was made by Webb taking a
shot at Gillette and they say that bis
marksmanship was so good that sever
al grains of shot were picked from
Gillette’s body.
County Clerk McNlchols has receiv
ed word from the secretary of the
state board of equilzation that the
real estate valuation of Holt county
as returned to the state board by the
Holt county board of equilzation, had
been increased by the state board 5
percent and gave notice that the
members of the Holt county board
could appear before the state board on
August 13 to show cause why such in
crease should not be made. The real
estate assessment of Holt county was
made pretty high by the Holt county
board, especially In Grattan and
Shields townships and an increase of
5 per cent would make it very high
in these townships. A delegation of
Holt county citizens will probably be
sent to Lincoln on the date specified
to enter their protest against the
increase.
