DEMOCBACY

AND ALLIGNED ITSELF WITH THE REPUBLICAN PARTY CHICAGO CHRONICLE 'Bryan Must be Greater Than the Party," Says the Chicago Chronicle. Chicago, 111., July 12. Denominating the St. Louis convention's action as cowardly, the Chicago Chronicle, ro Id Democratic, will come out today as a Republican newspaper. The Chronicle did not support Bryan hi either of his campaigns. The following explanation is given by the Chronicle: "When 1,000 men, representing the Democrats of the United States, most of them chosen with much difficulty as representatives, permit a mere demagogue to bully them into wrong doing, it must be that the demagogue is greater than the party. "Two-thirds of the delegates to the convention voted for Judge Parker on the first ballot the man whom Mr. Bryan had traduced for three months, the man whose friends Mr. Bryan had villified, the man who Mr. Bryan had said should, not be nominated and ciuild not be elected, which was silent on the money question. "When a cowardly committee representing these delegates brought in a platform not a voice was raised in expostulation or protest. While hundreds were ready to shout for Parker, not one appeared in defense of elementarv Democracy. "Mr. Bryan not only graciously permits the Democratic party to name a candidate whom he has done his best to defeat in advance, but he places him on a platform with a hole in it big enough to drop the entire party through. "It is bad enough to have Mr. Bryan dominating radical Democratic conventions. When Mr, Bryan is able to silence a ' conservative ' Democratic convention the situation becomes intolerable. A mixture of William J. Bryanism and David B. Ilillism is insupportable. "The Chronicle is not in sympathy with Mr. Bryans ideas. For eight years it has refused to believe that Mr. Bryans ideas were acceptable to the real Democrats of the country. The result at St. Louis appears to end the discussion. He and Hill are in control. He and Hill have named the ticket and made the platform. ANOTHER BRIDGE Being Erected by the Dayton & Western Near Eaton.

Burke and Henry Herskoitz, the committee representing the Central Labor Unions in Luzerne and Lackawanna counties, Pennsylvania, with a membership of 225,000, principally miners, came to present to the president resolutions by these bodies urging President Koosevelt to investigate the Colorado labor situation. The committee was received by Secretary Loeb, who offered to place the resolutions in the president's hands. The committee was instructed to present them personally but Secretary Loeb said a personal interview could not be arranged and suggested that they lay the matter before Corteiyou. This they decided to do and left the report of the convention now sitting at Pittsburg, Pa. Ordered to Resign Combes Says Not to do it Trouble (By Associated Press.) Rome, Julyl2. The Matin says that soon after France recalled her ambassador at the Vatican, Cardinal Vamtelli ordered several French bishops to tender their resignations by mail. They consulted with Premier Combes, who said the consent of France must precede the removal of bishops, according to the Concordat. Then the papal secretary of state threatened the bishops with removal if they did not come to Rome in fif teen days. Premier Combes forbid them to leave their posts. Tne Matin says that if the bishops are dismissed without consent of the government it will be considered as formal renunciations of the relations between the church and state. PRITCHARD FREE tThe Charge Against Him Not Sus tained. The trial of Frank Pritehard on the charge of stealing a pocketbook with $2S0 in it, in Circuit Court, yesterday, resulted in a finding of not guilty. Pritchard was defended by Byram Robbins. It was Bynam's first case and he is very proud of the result. He takes hold like an old veteran, and it wont le long until he will make the best of them hustle.

. .Talks Out in the West Virginia Republican State Convention. (By Associated Press.) Wheeling, W. Va., July 12. Senator Elkins, as temporary chairman of the Republican State convention here today, discussed at length the state taxation and tariff. He said, "Protection is doing much for West Virginia. The Democrats are seeking to recover the State by nominating Davis. In this the Democrats made a mistake, as usual. They should have nominated so good a man as Davis for first place. West Virginia can not be beguiled into abandoning protection, if even so doing tliew may make Davis vice president. He pleaded to let well enough alone, charging that if the Democrats succeed fifteen thousand colored Republicans will be disfranchised." LOCAL PYTHMS At Knigthstown Yesterday Attend Services.

Has Spent the Past Twenty-Seven Years in the State Prison. (Detroit Tribune.) For more than a quarter of a cen tury William Flower has won con vict garb in the Indiana State Prison at Michigan City. All this time he las stoutly maintained his innocence of the crime for which he is destined to spend the remainder of his life as a prisoner of the state which he fought, bled and all but died for. On September 19, 1877, Flower's name was enrolled on the prison rec ords, beginning on that day the serv ing of the life sentence imposed upon him for the murder of a physician in Terre Haute. Since that day life men have been received at the prison by the score. Some have been recipients of Executive clemency, some have had their sentence commuted by the Omnipotent One, while others, like Flowers, arp living in hopes that they, too, will some day be given their freedom by the Pardon Board. William Flower is not the brighteyed, raven-haired Beau Brummel of 27 years ago. Prison life has weighed heavily upon him. His hair has long since been as white as driven snow, the infirmities of age weighing heavi - ly upon him. No longer is he compelled to perform duties within the wall - ed city of which he has so long been a resident, but instead he has been assigned to the care of the prison greenhouse located outside of the walls. At all times of the day he can be found sprinkling can and trowel in hand, laboring to bring out nature's best to be used in the prison parlor i and hospital. The aged man feels confident that some day he will receive a pardon. NO HE IS Some Interesting History About Democratic Nominee for Vice-President Henry G. Davis is an octogenarian, but so active has been his life, much of it spent in the open air, that he has the appearance of a man who is appproaching the allotted span of threescore and ten. He was born on a farm near Baltimore on Nov. 16, 1S23 'and early lost his father, who left no

CONVICT

fortune. Before lie was 15 years of e young Davis was thrown absolutely upon his own resources, without a dol lar to give him a lift in life. Bef6re reaching his majority he was made superintendent of a small Virginia plantation, and there he began to develop the rare executive talent which afterwards made him noted. Later he became a freight brakeman on the Baltimore & Ohio raifroad and there he rot his start. He saved money, and when he saw an opportunity to buy 18.000 acres of land at a few cents an acre he took it over. These lands are now among the richest coal producing properties in the United States. Mr. Davis is a large stockholder in and director of the railroad on which he was a brakeman and is president of another road which he practically owns. This is the West Virginia Central, and while it was being built he superintended the entire work, so that the workmen said he knew every nail that was used Mr. Davis is many times a millionaire, but is personally modest and unostentatious. His home is at Elkins.

W. Va., where his son-in-law, Ste-! phen B. Elkins, a Republican United Mates senator, lives. Mr. Davis himself served in the senate from 1871 to 1SS3, and might have had a re-election, but he declined it. His first entrance into politics was as a member of the Virginia house of delegates in the ante-bellum times, before there was any state of West Virginia. He afterwards served two terms in the state senate. He was a war democrat. Mr. Davis' selection as a candidate for vice president will prevent his nomination for governor of West Virginia by the Democrats, who had already determined to make him their standard bearer in the state.
