DEMO LEADERS
ARE CONFIDENT
OF 'GOING OVER'
Special Train En Route to
fisco Stops in Omaha
V While Party Chiefs
Talk of Victory.
"Who.o are you going to notnl
rate at San Francisco?" Robert
Sweitrer, Chicago political leader,
clerk of Cook county and opponent
of Mayor Thompson in the late
mryoralty race, was asked while the
Illinois delegation's special train
was at the Union station here yes
terday. "We're going to nominate the
winner," replied this little, round
man. And after assailing the re
publican convention and platform at
length and with great picturesque
ness of diction, Mr. Sweitzer further
remarked that the democrats will
try to adopt a plank of "state rights"
on the prohibitory laws.
"The Volstead act should . be
amended so that states may choose
for themselves whether they want
to allow sale of liquors with one
half of 1 per cent alcohol or with
3 or S per cent," he said.
'Won't Mr. Bryan have something
to say about that?" he was asked.
A cloud seemed to come over his
face.
Bryan Will Be Busy.
"I haven't noticed Mr. Bryan get
ting any violent attack of silence
lately and I think it's safe to say he
will do plenty of babbling at San
Francisco," he said, "but I don't ex
pect to see him have things his own
way. Bryan and the Chicago demo-
crats never did sleep in the same
bunk and we won't now."
The special train on which the
'Tlliui are traveling over. the Rock
island consists of 12 Pullman and
tyo baggage c?rs. The baggage
cars contain strictly baggage and
r.o' liquid baggage, the delegates
averred. It is a dry train, they as
severated. Ttye train also carries a private
car ton which are Edward N. Hur
ley, former chairman of the United
States shipping board, and several
official of the Chicago, Great West
ern railroad. There are 30 women
on the train, wives of delegates and
others who are making the trip.
Sure of Victory.
George Brennan, chairman of the
Illinois delegation, said he felt fully
assured the Sn Francisco conven
tion will nominate a winner.
"He will be a democrat and the
next president of the United States,"
he remarked. "Fufthcr than that I
do not care to prophesy, though I
may have my opinion."
John Sullivan of Chicago, a broth
er of the late Roger Sullivan, is I
on the tram. He is , a detective
Sergeant of the Chicago police force.
He prophesied that the convention
will nominate either Cox or Palmer
and Said "We're going to try to
have a wet plank in the platform,
not too wet, you know, but a good
little bit wet." -
Urey Woodson of Kentucky, for
merly a.-democratic rational com
mitteeman, is on the train.
The Donkey's "Kick."
The delegates and others wore
two kinds of emblems on their la
pels. Some displayed the time
honored donkey, while others had
the rooster. The latter is suggested
as a new party emblem.
"I think," remarked Urey Wood
son, "that we better keep the donkey
because, when we get through at
San Francisco, our platform will be
the only one with a kick in it. The
republicans have straddled every
thing and said nothing definite or
straightforward. The democrats will
write and adopt a platform that will
have the kick."
The train is due in San Francisco
next Thursday evening.
Against the League.
"We are wet and against the
league of nations," was the declara
tion of Congressman James A.
Gallivan of Boston, member of the
Massachusetts delegation to the na
tional democratic convention in San
Francisco, a part of which passed
through Omaha yesterday afternoon.
"Senator David I. Walsh, chair
man of our delegation, is determined
to carry these two issues to the floor
cf the convention if the resolutions
committee ignores them," continued
Mr. Gallivan. "The entire delegation
is wet and against the league."
The Maine delegation to the con
vention, which passed through Oma
ha on the same train as the Mas
sachusetts delegation, is inclined to
"Ipt ttii nrnhihitinn matter rit " a r-
cording to Frank H. Haskell.
McAdoo Confuses Things.
"There is no strong sentiment
among Maine delegates toward anj
one candidates." declared Mr. Has
kell. "The withdrawal of McAdoo
Will tend to confuse matters at the
convention. I can't account for his
action.
".i.ator Hitchcock? Why I
didn't know he was running."
Bertrahd G. Mclntitre, chairman
of the Maine delegation and candi
date for govemsliip in Maine, de
clined to comment on the probable
results of the convention.
There are 12 delegates from
Maine. Among them are W. K.
Pettengall, ex-attorney general of
the state, and O. C. Curtiss, ex-governor.
Hiram Is Silent.
Senator Hiram Johnson of Cali
fornia refused to talk about the re
publican convention or political
problems when he passed through
Omaha yesterday morning on the
Overland Limited. He was on the
same train with democratic chiefs
who arc en route to the conclave in
Frisco.
Senator Glass, ranking demo
on the train, was interviewed while
in the early stage of dressing, but ht
refused to give out any of his in
structions from the president.
Other democrats who were on the
train were: Gov. A. E. Smith of
New York, "Boss" Charles Murphy,
Tammany leader; Lewis Nixon,
street commissioner. In the Ohio
delegation that boosted Cox were
former Gov. James J. Campbell,
Judge J. G. Johnson, P. C. Berg,
banker, and Charles E. Morris.

Thin, Nervous People
Need Bitro-Phosphate
Weak, thin pe6ple men or women
are nearly always nervous wrecks; thus
conclusively proving that thinness, weak
ness, debility and neurasthenia arc almost
invariably due to nerve starvation. Feed
your nerves and all these symptoms due
to nerve starvation will disappear.
Eminent specialists state that ona of
the best things for the nerves is an or
ganic phosphate known among druggists as
Bitro-Phosphate, a five-grain, tablet of
which should be taken with each meal.
Being a genuine nerve builder and not a
stimulant or habit-forming drug, Bitro
Phosphate can be safely taken by the
weakest and most delicate sufferer, and
the results following its us are often
simply astonishing.
By strengthening the nerves, weak, tired
people regain energy and vigor; thinness
and angularity give way to plumpness and
curves; sleep returns to the sleepless; con
fidence and cheerfulness replace debility
and gloom; dull eyes become bright, and
pale, sunken cheeks regain the pink glow
of health. It is sold by Sherman 4 Me
C mnell and all good druggists.
CAUTION : While Bitro-Phosphate is
unsurpassed for the relief of nervousness,
general debility, etc., those taking it who
do not desire to put on flesh should use
extra care in avoiding fat-producing foods.
