MED FORD DAILY TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORKOOX. SATURDAY. AUOUKT 8,
COMMUNIOATIONa
The Athletic Club.
To the Editor:
Ou account of so mniiy people askii
me aoout aitterent things, concerning
the Mcdford Athletic club, I wish to
atate that I know nothing about the
business of that institution. The facts
are, 1 am not or never was a member of
the club, although 1 may have been
the cause of it starting, but I did uot
think that it would be a success the way
the parties in charge were running
thiugtt, so told them plainly that 1
would have nothing to do with it. An
athletic club is a good thing for any
town when properly managed, but you
have to do these things right. Huaiuoss
men will not give up their money un
less they see something or receive some
benefit from it, and you can't run a
club without having the support of the
business men. Yours respectfully,
W. H. XVEST.

LINCOLN", Neb., August 8. Appa
rently the real reason for William J.
Bryan's proposed visit to Chicago on
August 8 2, when ho exteots to remain
in that city threo days, is to hold n
conference with the presidents of the
labor organizations of the country, who
are to be in Chicago at that time.
This information was obtained today
from a source close to the Commoner
and it is understood that the conference
with the labor leaders will be a signif
icant event in the campaign.
The obvious reason for Bryan's trip
is to attend sessions of the campaign
committco. "
