Saved Indians From Attack.
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.

Notification Occasion for Joy
ous Celebration
'SHALL THE PEOPLE RULE"
Tbis is ihe Slogan of Nominee, Who
Grills Republican Rale in
Grand Style
Special to the Evening Review.
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." During all
this time, I beg to remind you, re
