During the Itogue River Indian war of lsr.n-uti, Mr. Day's sense of right and courage prevented an un warranted slaughter of the I'mpqua tribe of Indians, uboul -too In num ber, who dwelt near his place on the Calapooia. These Indians were on peaceful terms with the white settlers, but this fact was unknown to a company of stenty volunteers, organized In the Willamette valley and heading southward to partici pate In the campaign against the Hogue Kiver tribe. Learning of the presence of the Umpqua Indians on the Calapooia and presuming that hey were also hostile, this company decided to attack them. Through some source, the Indians were ap prised of this plan, but the chief or the tribe. In preference to giving battle, appealed to Mr. Day to inter cede. Mr. Day at once Intercepted the volunteers and demanded that they let the Umpqua tribe alone. The captain of the company at first be came angry at this and threatened to shoot Mr. Day. Upon being defied however, by Mr. Day, who stood hit ground unflinchingly, the officer cool ed off and moved his company on south, where they rendered valiant service in the Rogue river campaign. In January, 1 S r. C, at the order of the government, the Umpqna Indiana were assembled nt the mouth of the Calapooia and placed in charge of Mr. Day. This was done to prevent Mieir being approached by Indians of oihei1 tribes, who might be in clined toward war. Later they were moved to the reservation on t lie Si Ictz, In Lincoln county.

LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 12. ''I have the honor of notifying you of your nomination as the democratic candidate for president," quoth Con gressman Henry O. Clayton, perman ent chairman of the Denver conven tion iu a few well chosen words. And in accepting It William J. Bryan launched forth In an addrest in which he outlined the democratic policies in the present campaign. elaborated the platform declarations and denounced the republican poli cies, past, present and prospective. One of the largest crowds ever gathered -in Lincoln heard the ad dress of the famous commoner, and took part in the demonstrations of joy and approval which marked ev ery Important Incident of the day s program. The whole city was given over to celebration. intermittent showers prevailed, but the democrats said it was democratic weather, pas saging victory for Itryan in the na tional election. As Bryan walked to breakfast, he was loudly cheered, and fireworks were exploded. The day was ushered In at sun rise with the liring of a salute ol forty-six guns, one for every state in the Union, liy 10 o'clock, when Ihe formal program was commenced with a band concert, the streets were crowded with people. Political lead ers from all over the country and crowds of well-dressed city folk from Omaha, St. Joe and other towns rubbed shoulders with husky Neb raska farmers, who had drove into town with farm wagons filled to ov erflowing with the women folks and the youngsters. Following luncheon, the members of the notification committee, accom panied by Bryan and Kern, paraded in carriages to the capito) grounds. The candidates for the presidency and vice-presidency were given an ovation all along the line. The day's program will come to a close this evening with a dinner to the committee on the lawn at Fair view, Mr. Bryan's suburban home. At the capitol grounds, where the notification ceremonies took place. Mr. Bryan was given another ova tion when Mr. Clayton finished his remarks. Great as this was, how ever. It was totally eclipsed by the demonstration that followed Un closing of Mr. Bryan's reply, which fairly lifted the great crowd from Its feet. Mr. Bryan spoke as follows: Mr. Clayton and (ientlemen of the Notification Committee: I cannot accept the nomination which you ollllcally tender without first acknowledging my deep Indebt ed ness to the democrat Ic pa rt y for the extraordinary honor which it has conferred upon me. Having twice before been a candidate for the pres idency In campaigns which ended In defeat, a third nomination, the re sult of the free and voluntary act of the voters of the party, can only be explained by a substantial and undisputed growth In the principles for which I., with a multitude of others, have contended. As these principles and policies have given me whatever political strength I pos sess, the action of the convention not only renews my faith In them, but strengthens my attachment to them. A Platform Im Binding. I shall. In the near future, pre pare a more formal reply to your notification, and In that letter of ae eeptance. will deal with the plat form in detail. It Is suhVient. at this time to assure you that I am In hearty accord with both the letter and the spirit of the platform. I dorse It In whole and In part, and shall, if elected, regard Its derlara Hons as binding iiKn me. And, may add, a platform Is binding as to what ft omits as well an to what It contains, according to the democratic idea, the people think for themselves and select officials to carry out their wlhes. The voters are the sover eigns: the officials are the servant employed for a fixed time and at slated salaryjo do what the people want done, and to do It In the way the people want It done. Kepublican Challenge AcccpU-d. The distinguished statesman who received the republican nomination for president said, In his notification speech : "The Btreugth of the republican cause In the campaign at hand is the fact that we represent the pol icies essential to the reform ol known abuses, to the continuance of liberty und true prosperity and that we are determined, as our platform unequivocally declares to maintain them and carry them ou." In the name of the democratic parly 1 accept the challenge and charge that the republican party Is responsible Tor all the abuses which now exist in the federal government, and that It is Impotent to accom plish the reforms which are Im peratively needed. Furthermore 1 cannot concur lu statement that the republican platrorm unequivocally declares for the reforms now nec essary; on the contrary, I alllrm that it openly and notoriously disappoints the hopes and expectations of re formers, whether those reformers be republicans or democrats. So far did the republican convention fall short of Its duly that the republican candidate felt it necessary to mid to his platform In several important particulars, thus rebuking the lead era of the party, upon whose co-operation he must rely for the enact ment of remedial legislation. As I shall, iu separate speeches, discuss the leading questions at Is sue, 1 shall nt this time confine my self to the paramount question, and to the far reaching purpose of our party, ns that purpose Is Bet forth In the platform. Shall the People Rule? Our platform declares that the overshadowing issue which manifests Itself In all the questions now under discussion is: "Shall the people rule? No matter which way we turn; no matter to what subject we address ourselves, the same ques tion confront us: Shall the people control their own government, and use that government for the protec tion of their rights and for the pro motion of their welfnre? Or shall the representatives of predatorv wealth prey upon a defenseless pub lic, while the offenders secure Im munity from subservient ollldnb whom they raise to power by un scrupulous methods? This Is the Is sue rnlsed by the "known abuses" to which Mr. TaTt refers. The President's Indictment. In a mesage sent congress last January, President Roosevelt said: "The attacks by these great corpora tions ou the administration's actions have been given a wide circulation throughout the country, lu news papers and otherwise, by those writ ers and speakers who, consciously or unconsciously act as the repre sentatives or. predatory wealth of the wealth accumulated on a giant scale by all forms of iniquity, rnng: lug from the oppression of wage earners to unfair and unwholesomt methods of crushing out competi tion, and to defrauding the public by stock jobbing and the manipula tion of securities. Certain wen It lu men or this stamp, whose conduct should be abhorrent to every man of ordinarily decent conscience, and who commit the hideous wrong of teachl ig our young men that phen omenal business success must ordin arily be based on dishonesty, have, during the last few months, made it apparent that they have banded to gether to work for re-action. Theft udeavor is to overthrow nnd dis redit all who honestly administer the law to prevent any additional legislation which would check and restrain them, and to secure, if pos sible, a freedom from all restraint which will permit every unscrupul ous wrong doer to do what he wishes unchecked, provided he has enough money what an arraignment of pre datory Interests. Is the president's Indictment true? And, If true against whom was the Indictment directed? Not against the demo cratic party. Tjift Kudo rc Imlictir''iit. Mr. Taft says that these evils havt crept In during the last ten years. IB declares that, during this time some "prominent and Influential members of the community, spurred by financial success and In their hur ry for greater wealth, became un mindful of the common rules of busi ness honesty and fidelity, and of the limitations Imposed hy Jaw upon their actions." and "the rcvelatioio of the breaches of trusts, the dis closures as lo rebates and diner I in inatiotis by railroads, the accumul atlng evidence of the violations of the anti-trust laws by a number of coriMiratfons. and the over-issue of .stocks and bonds of Interstate rait roads for the unlawful enriching of directors and for the purpose or concentrating the control of the rail roads under one management," all these, he charges, "quickened th conscience of the people and brought on a moral awakening."
