Jan. .-8pelal.-The action f tha Douglas County democracy In In dorsing the candidacy of William R. Hearst for the democratic nomination for tha presi dency does not meet with tha approval of the leaders of tha party In Lancaster county, but Instead tha action la almost Unanimously condemned. Inaamuch as those who speak ag-alnst Ne braska Indorsing anyona before tha na tional convention meets are tha most Inti mate friends that W. J. Bryan has In Ne braska, there Is ground for tha belief that Mr. Bryan still has a suspicion In his mind that he may be the third time candidate of his party and that he has Instructed his chief lieutenants to sea that tha democratic state convention sends a delegation to 8t Louis absolutely free from pledges. Fur ther grounds are given for this belief by tha fact that Mr. Bryan haa assailed the de-1 mocracy of every prominent man who haa yet been named In connection with the office, with possibly the exception of Mr. Hearst, though he has refused to say that ha would Indorse tha editor. T. D. Worrell, who Is one of the chief lieutenants of the "peerless leader" and who was tha autbof of the letter announc ing that tha recent Bryan banquet was not for apologlxts. stated last night that the action of the Douglas county organisa tion was uncalled for and unnecessary. Mr. Worrall did not hesitate to say that ha did not approve of any such procedure. "We Of Nebraska," Wie said, "should go to the Bt. Louis convention without having ax pressed a choice for anyone. Wa are stand ing for a principle and when we get to the convention Is time enough to look for a candidate. Anything that Nebraska democrats do at this time will have much weight over the country, as It la likely to be construed as tha action of Mr. Bryan, S(ve nothing against Mr. Hearst and be lieve In his democracy, I think It Is tha place of Nebraska to keep quiet and I be lieve that the state convention will not act on the recommendation of the Douglas County Democracy." P. L. Hall, chairman of the state demo cratic committee, said: "1 do not Indorse the action of the Douglas County Democ racy In pledging Itself to Mr. Hearst, though of course the club haa a right to do as it pleases. I favor sending a delega tion to St. Louis unlnstructed for any can didate." Other prominent democrats stated that they did not believe the candidacy of Mr. Hearst had yet assumed dangerous pro portions, but no one would state what the danger would be or to whom It would be dangerous should Mr. Hearst be nominated. As the editor Is about as radical as Mr. Bryan It Is taken for granted that tha danger would be to Mr. Bryan and his am bition should Hearst's boom continue to gain ground. Should tha Douglas County Democracy take itself seriously and at tempt to send a Hearst delegation to St Louts there will bo a warm time In the state convention, for down hare It Is no Hearst In tha meantime Chairman Hall haa not yet decided. whan, ta call the state com mittee together to name tha time for hold ing tha state convention, though na stated last night that ho would decide tha time In a few days.
