Wilson Upholds Bryan. ..Governor Wilson's telegram to Mr. BryaH in reply to the latter's appeal yes terday to sever all of the democratic presidential candidates was given out here by the Wilson national campaign committee. ' The Wilson reply was as follows: "You are right Before hearing of your message I clearly stated my position in answer to a question from the Baltimore Evening Sun. The Baltimore convention is to be the convention of progressives Vio men whn nr nrneressive in Drlnciole and by conviction. If it is not to be put in a wrong light before the country it must express its convictions in its or ganization and in its choice of the men who are to speak for It. Tou are to be a member of the conventions and are entirely within your rights in doing everything within your power to bring that result about. "No one will doubt where my sympa thies He and you will, I am sure, find jny friends in the convention acting upon a clear conviction and always in the in terest of the people's cause. I am happy in the confidence that they need no sug gestion from me." "WOODROW WILSON." Little Encouragement In Answer. Those national committeemen aligned with Judge Parker analyzed the replies of the candidates to Mr. Bryan's note and declared the Nebraska leader would find little comfort in them , and that he would be compelled to make the fight with only those delegates who joined with him. ' : Some of the leaders hoped that Mr. Bryan could be persuaded to withdraw from the fight and abide by the decision of the committee In the interest of party harmony. There were reports that there might , be . a . bolt if Judge Parker was finally selected and a party of progres sives formed, but none close to the Bryan leaders would confirm this, saying that it' was Idle talk to talk of such moves, especially since the delegates and leaders had not- threl .ed It out in convention. ' United States ' Senator Martins of New Jersey was one of the early Wilson ar rivals today. ' "The temporary chairmanship Is not worth . fighting over, declared Senator Martlne: "I am Bryan's friend and would prefer to 'see a man like Senator Kern temporary chairman, but that Is all sec ondary to gating a real progressive can didate like Woodrow Wilson and a plat form that Is more progressive than our platforms of seventy-five years ago. We don't want to row at the beginning of this convention." Boom for Gaynor. The campaign of lithographs almost ended seriously In the Emerson, head quarters for many of the candidates. Ever since the Wilson managers monopol ized one end of the balcony over the hotel lobby with an enormous likeness of their candidate, each headquarters has sought to outdo the others by display of litho graphs, portraits and banners. One zealous Clark supporter procured a twenty-foot ladder and was about to You Owe it to Your Doctor To have the prescriptions he pre scribes for you most carefully com pounded as only pure drugs can ac complish the purpose he has pre scribed them for.- At any of our stores you are assured of getting nothing but the best and purest drugs at all times and compounded by the most competent pharmacists avail able. . Sherman & IlcConnell Drug Stores paste a lithograph of the Missouri can didate far above that of any other can didate. Just as he was adjusting the stickers, down came - ladder, lithograph and man, all in a heap, among the startled politicians. No one was seriously injured. - Friends of Mayor Gayr.or have entered him In this lithograph contest Last night about the time Charles F Murphy and his Tammany Hall followers arrived Gaynor lithographs appeared everywhere about the lobby. A gigantlo - banner, necessarily hiding some of the multitu dinous pictures of other candidates, was suspended In the lobby. It read: "Gay nor for President. A Sure Winner." The snapshot artists are doing a rush ing business. This year they are not only seeking the prominent men, but are photographing the women. They were particularly insistent that Mrs. Norman E. Mack, wife, of the national committee chairman, pose for them. ' She finally consented provided they would readjust her veil after the ceremony." They promised and tried to fulfill their part of the agreement, but' a newspaper man had to come to their assistance. Iowa Wants a Winner. An appeal for a "winning candidate" is being made by the Bryan league of Iowa to every delegate through an address distributed among the assembled poli ticians. . In this appeal it Is argued that democratic success depends upon winning at least 1,000,000 dissatisfied republicans. "What faction-of the republican party can wo best hope to win away?" the Iowa democrats ask. "Unquestionably the radical progres--sives and followers of La Follette. Name the democrat whom these men are 'now ready to vote .for and you have found the winning candidate." PARKER WORKING OJi SPEECH He Refuses to Comment onBrj-an'i Opposition. NEW YORK, June 22. Alton B. Par ker, who has been picked by the arrange ments committee o the democratic na tional committee for temporary chair man of the Baltimore convention, arrived in New York today from Rochester. He is working on his speech to be delivered in . Baltimore and denied himself to visitors, v His secretary said that the judge would leave for Baltimore either tonight or tomorrow morning. Judge Parker has made no comment on Mr. Bryan's opposition to him as tem porary chairman. that whatever the complexion of the Bal tlmer convention, its platform will make sweeping concessions to the radical ele ment In the party. Senator O'Gorman of New York, prob ably on the resolutions committee, says that It is the consensus of opinion that the tariff should be the dominant Issue and that a vigorous tariff plank should be the committee's first care. The next plank In order of importance will relate to business monopolies. A universal woman suffrage plank ar rived here today and several prominent suffragists already have been promised a hearing before the committee. Other planks the committee will con sider,1 are . as ' follows: Declaring for regular Increase of the navy, probably the construction of two battleships a year. Permitting postal employes to organize. Improvement of rivers and harbors. Favoring a national public health bu reau. There was talk today of a plank de claring in strong terms against a third presidential term. If Colonel Roosevelt Is nominated to run again, it is said such a plank is certain to find its way into the platform. ' FEW CONTESTS TO BE HEARD GOSSIP ABOUT THE PLATFORM Sweeping Concessions to Radical Element Are Probable. .... BALTIMORE, June 22.-The democratic platform builders promise to present1 to the convention ' next week a document that shall be short and incisive. The number of "teeth" in it, one plank maker said today, will depend-upon. the outcome of the struggle between the conservative and radical wings of the party. On most of. the majority points, however, the leaders seem agreed. If William J. Bryan wins his fight to have the keynote of the convention sounded by a progressive chairman, Mr. Bryan probably will be made chairman of the resolutions committee. In view of .the republican situation and the hints that the leaders of a "third ticket" may appeal for support to pro gressive democrats, there is little doubt National Committee Takes Up the Work Monday. BALTIMORE, June 22. Plans for the hearing Monday by the democratic) na tional committee of rival delegations for seats In the democratic convention were completed today by members of the committee. Death has reduced by one the number of contests. There will be no contest In the Sixth Louisiana district. In the same manner in which the contest was created it has been solved. The vacancy In the delegation was caused by the tragic death in Washington of the late Rep resentative Robert C. Wycliffe, chosen to the Baltimore convention some time ago. A dispute arose as to which of the two alternates In the district were entitled to his seat here. Secretary Urey Wood con of the democratic national commit tee has been Informed that one of the alternates also has died. Up to date the national committee has received notification of contests affect ing the entire delegations from the Dis trict of Columbia, Porto Rico. Vermont the Philippines and Alaska. In addition rival claims have been made to the seats of the delegates from Illinois at large; the first ten districts of that state and also the Twentieth. Other contests In augurated are over three seats from Rhode Island, one seat in the Seventh and in the Ninth Pennslyvanla districts and both seats in the -Seventh and Six teenth Texas districts. tl'oh of Its convention. I should regard It as unwise to agitate a similar cause of difference respecting action of tha democrats national .committee. The democrat party of the United States stands for three things: First Opposition to grants of special .neclal interests. Second-Opposition to centralization of power at Washington uy encroaenments on the rightful spheres of the states. Third Economy In public expenditures. All those who believe that these prin ciples should be iiteadfastly maintained belong In the democratic parry. No party can expect or deserve success In the conduct of national affairs which Is not broad enough to comprehend many who differ widely In their views on the minor points. It will have a right wing, a left wing and a center, all co-ordinate parts of one. and the same political body. X appeal to you as the great leader, for whom I have, cast my vote in former presidential campaigns as one agreeing with you on those points, though differ ing from you as to some others, to use your commanding . influence to securo harmony at Baltimore. MUBPHV IS BEHIND PARKER New Tork Chieftain Declares WU1 Win Without Fisht. BALTIMORE. June 22-Both Senator O'Gorman of New York and Charles F. Murphy, leaders of Tammany Hall, de clared tonight that' there would be no row In the convention over the selection of a temporary chairman. Mr. Murphy insisted, however, that Judge Alton B. Parker would be chosen, and that Mr. Bryan would meet defeat before the con vention opened, at the session of the national committee which win pass upon the action of the subcommittee. "Are you behind , Judge Parker?" he was asked. "I am." "Do you think there is any chance of his withdrawing?" "I haven't heard of any." "Will he be accepted by the conven tion?" "I hope so." . Murphy Insisted that the controversy over the temporary chairmanship would be settled before the convention assem bled. "There will be no unseemly row," said Mr. Murphy, "and no bitterness. I am satisfied Mr. O'Gorman will not do any thing that Is not for the better Interest of the party." Senator O'Gorman said the platform would contain a strong plank relating to the so-called money trust but declined to go Into details. The most important planks In the platform, he declared, would be: First tariff reduction, and second, con trol of monopolies. Mr. Murphy spent the day in confer ences with Chairman Robert Craln of the local committee of arrangements, Colonel John Hopkins of Chicago, Thomas Tag gart of Indiana and others. RULES . COMMITTEE IS BUSY BALDWIN APPEALS TO BRYAN He Asks Nebraskan to Abandon the Fight on Parker. NEW HAVEN,' Conn., June 22.-Gov-ernor Simeon E. Baldwin today sent the following to Colonel Bryan In reply to the latter's appeal that the governor op pose Alton B. Parker as temporary chair man of the Baltimore convention: Replying to your telegram forwardeu from Hartford: It does not seem to me that the course you suggest would pro mote harmony at Baltimore. The republican party hs been visibly destroying itself at Chicago. The stosm center has been the action of Its national committee in planning for the organlza- Vlg-oroas Conttnnation of Unit Rnle to Be Considered. BALTIMORE, June 22,-The vigorous continuation of the unit rule of the demo cratic national conventions was con sidered tonight by the committee on ar rangements, meeting with its subcommit tee on rules. Charles R. Crisp of Georgia, parliamentarian of the national house of representatives and of the coming con vention, cited the precedents for the unit rule. "The committee's purpose was to pre pare advice for . the national chairman and for the temporary chairman, during the respective periods they preside over the convention preceding the permanent organization as to whether tha unit rule of voting In the state delegations shall be recognized. The issue will be raised as a point of order In the convention, It Is expected, and not through formal' con tests of rival delegations." No action was taken and the com mittee will meet again Monday with Mr. Crisp. BRYAN WORKS FOR HARMONY Was Declares All He Has Done A Ion or This Line. FORT WAYNEt Ind., June 22.-WIlliam J. Bryan, on his way to Baltimore to night was asked whether he would take the matter of the temporary chairman ship cf the democratic convention on the floor of the convention. N "I do not care to discuss the situation," he said. "What I have done has been done In the Interest of harmony. As you will see from the telegram to the presidential candidates I did not attempt to name any person for the place, urged that the con vention find a temporary .chairman a gentleman suitable to the ' two leading candidates, and thus make sure of a harmonious opinion of-'the. convention. Instead . the .subcommittee ' selected a reactionary to open a progressive conven tion. ' No intelligent man could believe that such a move Is In-the Interest of harmony at a time like this. I hope that the full committee will select some man In harmony with the majority seatlment of 'the convention and thus give the demo crats a united beginning." Samuel Gompers, president of the Amer ican Federation of Labor, was on the same train with Mr. Bryan, as were Governor James Hawley and the Idaho delegates-at-large. Gompers had no hesitancy In expressing his disappoint ment with the action of the republican national convention.

FEW ROOSEVELT MEN MISS NEWS Several Hnndred Men Stand Before Bulletin Board When News Comes Many Arguments on Sidewalk. Announcement of William Howard Taft's renominatlon on The Bee bulletin board, Seventeenth and Farnam streets, was greeted with prolonged applause and cheering and some hissing and cries of derision by a crowd of several hundred men last night. Despite the talk of overwhelming' Roosevelt sentiment In Nebraska and Omaha, the demonstration In front of the bulletin board Indicated that 'a ma jority of those present were either pleased or not greatly displeased with the result of the week's battle In Chi cago. For several minutes the crowd cheered and clapped hands; a few hats were tossed Into the air. The few men who gave expression to their 111 feeling over the collapse of the Roosevelt move ment within the party soon exhausted their dispositions to hiss and deride. Until a late hour a crowd stood In front of the bulletin board. The Indi vidual members of the gathering changed from minute to minute, some moving on and others coming to take their places. They scanned the board, commented upon the Information It dis played, discussed it briefly and passed on to .give place to others. All last week convention bulletins, fur nished by the "A. P." appeared In many store windows and before each such win dow there was a constantly changing crowd. Because of the larger number and more frequent changes of Bee bulletins the largest crowd congregated before tills board. Since Tuesday morning there has been no hour between 9 o'clock In the morning and 10 at night that at leaBt 100 men were not on the walk in front of the board. Most of the time the number has exceeded 400. Remarks of Interested perusers of the bulletin all week have resulted In heated arguments. Almost any hour one might visit the corner and find more than 100 men scanning the board and anothe group of a hundred or more gathered round some ardent partisans listening to the debate. - - Two Men Injured When Car Strikes Wagon on Track A rear-end collision between a Farnam street car and a beer wagon driven by Fortunato Zancanella ana Tony Alders. both of 1024 Dodge street, nearly resulted fatally for the men on the lighter vehicle last night at Tenth and Jackaon streets, about I o'clock.

Coming and Going in Omaha DEAD WOOD, S. D.. June a-tSpedal Telegram.) The formation of a third. party ticket by Roosevelt places Bout, Dakota In a peculiar position and leaves a chance for some speculation, particu larly in the senatorial question. The state went overwhelmingly for Roosevelt In the primaries from governor down, all nominees on the republican ticket are Roosevelt men and each will be obliged to declare himself with tha strong probability that most of them will declare for the Roosevelt ticket, Including Sterling for senator. This leaves the republican ticket with no actual nominees and gives Senator Oamble, who was beaten by Sterling, a good chance to go before the next legis lature as the republican candidate. , Gamble's friends here claim to see a good chance for his electlpn In this manner.
