how a candidate can secure a place upon

Walt, after looking the matter up, BSs
sent the following leply:
"I am of the opinion that there are
but . two ways for a party to be nomi
nated after a primary has been held In
the state. One is by petition and the
other by the party committee. In the
first instance the candidate's name must
ro On the ballot as 'by petition.' In the
latter case vacancies caused by death or
resignation may be filled only by a ma
jority vote of the county committee of
the party making the nomination. The
name of the candidate so nominated
should be certified to the county clerk
and. the certificate signed by the chair
man and secretary of the committee.

' Pen a Back from Kearney.
Major Penn and Captain Kesterson of
the Nebraska National "Guard have re
turned from Kearney, where they In
spected the rifle practice of Company A
of the Second regiment. The company
showed up much better this year, sixteen
of the twenty-five contestants Qualifying
as marksmen, as against only five last
year. Among the number ' are Bishop
Beecher, chaplain of the regiment, and
Major Gibbon, surgeon of the guard.
On their way home they stopped at
Hastings, where Company D Is beginning
Ipractlce. The practice was called off on
account of the rifle range not being con
sidered a safe one except for revolver
practice. As soon .as a safe range can
be secured the -company will again take
up practice.

. Bryan Followers Gloomy-.
The .result of the vote on chairman of
the national . democratic convention as it
nas been coming in over the wire this
afternoon has had a very depressing ef
fe.i on. the followers of Mr. Bryan in
Lincoln. . Many of them supposed that
ill Mr. Bryan would have to do was to
"throw his hat In the ring," mount t.h.
platform and flash his ever-pleasant
smile over . the convention . and it would
all go his way. The first reports showed
hard sledding for Billy and the hearts
of his followers fell accordingly, but
when the later .returns showed, that he
was gaining and would come close to a
win for his .candidate, they became bet
ter natured. "It Is the most depressing
news I have heard for some time," re
marked a faithful follower of the three-
time candidate, "for I. thought every
thing would come out all right, but I am
afraid that the democratic party will, as
usual, make a fool of Itself."

jeering, and Mr. Bryan again arose.
Bryan said he tried to get the convention
to agree on a progressive. ' He said he
urged Senator James to be the leader,
but he would not consent He went next
to Senator O'Gorman and then at last he
appealed to Senator Kern.
"I stand ready to support any progres
sive who will lead," he added, "but II
no other progressive appears I shall ae
cept the leadership and let you express
through me your advocacy or opposition
to the principles we have fought for six
teen years."
Theodore Bell of California took the
platform as Bryan returned to his seat
"I stand In Baltimore for the same
kind of democracy for which I stood in
Denver four years ago," declared Bell.
"I should not have presided over that
convention if my democracy had not re
ceived the approval of the distinguished
gentlemen from Nebraska."
The next speaker was Senator-elect 01-
Us James. He. said it was with regret
that he could not support either Bryan
or Kern, but would cast his vote in favor
of Alton B. Parker.
Antl-Hryan Demonstration.
This called out a demonstration from
the anti-Bryan forces. It was of short
duration, however, and Bell continued.
He said he did not believe there were'
any influences at work behind Parker.
Many loyal friends of Bryan would vote
for Judge Parker.
"Their votes will be cast," ne said
"in the belief that Judge Parker's de
mocracy In the past"
Shouts of "Bryan,, Bryan," interrupted
the speaker, but they came largely from
the galleries. ,
Sergeant-at-arms Martin appealed for
order, threatening to clear the galleries.
For a long time his efforts were In . vain.
Quiet was retored at last aid Bell as
serted - that Judge Parker's democracy
could be subjected and had received the
approval of Mr. Bryan in 1904.
Again the disorder broke out in the
galleries and was quelled with difficulty.
When Bell attempted to proceed the
cries of "Bryan" broke out afresh. He
could hardly utter two words without an
Interruption, but . stuck , persptringly to
his task, shaking his finger at the gal
leries. Bell said there was no question
but that the convention would adopt a
progressive platform as expressive of Its
sincere beliefs.
Bell's speech, coming as It did from
the chairman of one of the largest Champ
Clark delegations in the convention, was
significant.
"When Parker has presided over this
convention "
A shout of "no, no," interrupted and
again the cries of "Bryan, Bryan," led
a series of cheers. A Pennsylvania dele
gate demanded that order be enforced
In the galleries. Bell suspended his
speech and Chairman Mack pounded wltn
his gavel. ' Finally quiet was restored to
allow Bell to deliver a brief conclusion.
"I am convinced that the American
people In the fall will ratify the elec
tion of Alton B. Parker as temporary
chairman of this convention.". .
Kern Becomes 111. '? '-
While Bell was concluding, Repre
sentative Fitzgerald, spokesman for the
New York delegation, made his way to
the platform. He was recognised by the
chair as Mr. Bell sat down.- , ;
"He's a Cannon man from New York,"
shouted a delegate. It was a long time
before Fitzgerald could proceed. The dis
order spread to all parts of the hall ex
cept the delegate section. It became
known that Senator Kern, ill from the
effects of heat in the hall, had been hur
ried to his hotel. A chorus from the
rear of the hall drowned out Fitzgerald's
Intended eulogy of Parker with renewed!
cries of "Oh, you Cannon democrat."
Chairman Mack threatened to ctear the
gallery unless the speakers were al
lowed to proeee4 uninterrupted, but the
hubbub continued. Even the threat from
the sergeant-at-arms failed to quiet them.
Fitzgerald decided to go ahead, despite
the noise. He said Judge Parker would
not seek the distinction of presiding over
the convention and therefore would not
withdraw.
"New" York," he continued, "will loyally
abide by the, decision of the convention."
With this statement, Fitzgerald re
turned to the floor. A squad of police
men on duty outside the hall was brought
In end the aisles were cleared with dif
ficulty. The galleries seemed beyond all
control and Intent on shouting to their
hearts' content. While the demonstration
was on Chairman Mack announced that
the roll would be called.

-we protest against that," shouted a
nryan supporter, "wen nave no gag
rule here as they had In Chicago."
Mack was preparing to enforce his
order when Bryan burst through the
crowd - behind the stage. With sweat
streaming from his face and with set
jaws he leaped to the front of the stage.
A cheer greeted him as he leaned for
ward. For a few minutes the hall was
swept by even wilder disorder.
"I rise to a point of order." said Mr.
Bryan, ' when he could make himself
heard. "Our conventions are governed
by rules. The chairman announced the
roll would be called while persons were
standing and seeking recognition.
'As no limitation has been placed on
debate, the chairman has no right under
the rules to close It"
'The chair desires to make a state
ment," ' explained Chairman Mack. "A
motion was made from the floor during
the debate. I did not do It."
Senator Lea moved that debate ' be
limited to fifteen minutes on a side.
Chairman Mack declared the motion car
ried. Johnson of Texas arose to make his
speech. He lauded Bryan and Kern and
denounced "representatives of the trust
that have throttled American Industry "
"All I know," he said, "is that the
fight Is on; that Bryan Is on one side
and Wall street on the other."
An outburst of cheering greeted this
statement and Johnson soon concluded
with the words:
"God bless yoa all for your decorum." '
There were no more speakers and the
roll was then called.
Victory for Parker.
Before an official announcement of the
result of the roll call could be made,
Senator Lea, representing the Bryan In
terests, moved that, inasmuch as Judge
Parker had received 679 votes to 506 for
Bryan, the nomination be made unani
mous. There were some shouts of i'No,"
but Chairman Mack declared' the motion
had been carried.
Senators Stone of Missouri, Lea and
Hudspeth of New Jersey were named to
escort Parker to the chair.
A round of cheers greeted the newly
elected chairman as he climbed the steps
to the platform, National Chairman Mack
confined himself to the mere Introduc
tion: "Judge Parker, temporary chair
man." ...'
Gradually the hall was quieted and
Parker started to read his speech, but
was Interrupted at the very beginning
