HEADED THE PROCESSION.
The day Kern was notified was a big DeniDcra.tic. day Ln Indiaiiapnlis—at least the Democrats thought so. At the head of the parade on that memorable day was the big sixty-horsepower motor car of Crawford Fairbanks, bought with the profits of booze. In the car were Crawford Fairbanks, King Bee Brewer of Indiana; William Jennings Bryan, residuary legatee of all the isms and Tads man is heir to; .Torn Taggart, the Monte Carlo King of the West; Tom Marshall, the humble and pious candidate of the “interests"; Norman Mack, the political acrobat of Buffalo, and Theodore Bell, attorney for 57 varieties of brewers, distillers and allied corporations. What a noble picture! How it must have stirred the hearts of the patriots! How it must have inspired the souls of the temperance and other reformers that looked upon it:! Its like will not soon be seen again!
