LEADING CLOTHIER ARYAN FOR FIIIEFI Wants Him in Second Place to Win Conservatives. BAIT FOR GERMAN VOTE Thinks l'ubli.-lior of Slums Zclluns Who Is Now Bitterly Opposing Ills Nomination Would Make the TU-krt Invincible. PENVER; July 4. James C. Dahl man. Mayor of Omaha. who i credited with being one of the official spokesmen for Mr. Bryan in Penver. was asked about the report that Mr. Bryan had expressed himself as favoring Herman Rldder. of New York, proprietor of the New York Staats-Zoitung, for Vice-President, said that he had not discussed Mr. Rldder in particular with Mr. Bryan, but that h knew that Mr. Bryan was strongly in favor of Riu-h a man. He said that Mr Bryan had no idea of insisting that the man who should be named for second place must necessarily have been a supporter of his in the past. On the contrary, he preferred some man who would represent the conservative ele ment of the party and who at the time was In favor of the urgent reform of the present day. 'I know that he wants a man who, while being of unimpeachable standing in political matters, would also be satisfactory to the great German ele ment of our party." said Mr. Dahlman. "With a man like Ridder on the ticket with Bryan wo could carry not only New York, but states like Ohio. Indi ana. Illinois and Wisconsin, where the Cerman vote Is a strong factor. The name of Rldder sounds to me like the most available that has been suggested. Will Overlook the Vast. "It dors not make any difference if Mr. Rldder opposed Bryan In 1S96 and 1900. and is opposed to him now on grounds of political expediency. If he Is the right sort of man for the place, Mr. Bryan would be for him. Upon good authority. Ridder is said to be the Bryan preference at the pres ent time. With the arrival in Denver rarly today of several prominent Demo crats who are close in the confidence of the Nobraskan, came the report that Mr. Bryan had decided that Mr. Rldder was strongly available for the nomina tion. Not that he expects to dictate to the convention the mun who shall be named, hut to let It be known to bis supporters the came of Uie man who he believes would strengthen the ticket. According to the reports which have come from Lincoln, the reasoning of the Bryan managers in their sugges tion of Mr. Ridder for Vice-President Is as follows: Qualifications of Ridder. Mr. Rldder is one of the most promi nent citizens of German descent in the Vnited States. He was a "Gold Demo crat." and possesses In fullest meas ure the conftdentie of that wing of the party. He has been affiliated wUn the conservative wing of the Democracy for the last 12 years, and would com mand the support of that element for the ticket. A very large percentage of the popu lation of the United States are German or of German descent. In New York State, the electoral vote of which state Mr. Bryan is anxious to carry if nomi nated. 34 per cent of the population are of German extraction. It Is said to be the Idea of Mr. Bryan that he must have a man as his run ning mate who will represent that wing of the party which has antagonized him in the past. He l said to prefer a "Gold Demo crat," a man who perhaps did not sup port him in either of the last two cam paigns, who can command the support of the -.German-American vote of the country who comes from New York State and who favors tariff revision and -other policies of Mr. Bryan. ' Mr. Ridder fills all of these qualifi cations, the Bryan people claim. He did not support Mr. Bryan for the Presidency, either in 1896 or in 1900. Mr. Ridder has already informed Mr. Bryan personally that while he ie strongly opposed to Mr. Bryan's nomi nation this year he will, If the latter is nominated, suppoTt him, and will lend him also his active personal aid. Ridder for a Battle. Mr. Riddor arrived in Denver this morn ing and announced his unaltered antago nism to Bryan's candidacy, and stated that he would at once inaugurate a cam paign among the delegates to the con vention to encompass the defeat of the Nebraskan. He said that as soon as he had rested from his railway journey he would begin his work among the Bryan and uninstructed delegates, in an effort to convince them that Bryan could not carry New York this year: and that the electoral vote of . New York was neces sary to the success of the National tick et. .Mr. Ridder gives it as bis unquali fied opinion that Mr. Bryan cannot carry New York. He cites as his reason for this the memory which BtiU lingers in the minds of the New York voters of Mr. Bryan's free-silver views, which they disapproved. Also the statement which he made in his Madison-Square Garden address in which he favored the National acquisition of the railroads. Builds Hopes on South. While these matters may not be in jected into the campaign, the recollec tion of Mr. Bryan's alleged radical ten dencies would result in his defeat, argued Mr. Rldder. Mr. Ridder stated that he expected to visit all the different state delegations, particularly those from the South, and address the delegates upon the subject of Mr. Bryan's poliNcaUweak ness in New York State. He expects also to work unremittingly among the in dividual delegates from now until the time the nomination is made. What the result might be in New York if a Vice-Presidential candidate of Mr. Bryan's choosing were selected and a platform adopted which would appeal to the country, Mr. Ridder refused to haz ard. He said that of course it might be possible for Mr. Bryan to carry New York at the coming election, but he did not believe so. Talked to Bryan Frankly. Mr. Ridder's interview with Mr. Bryan at Fairview was confidential, but Mr. Ridder in a statement made public at Lincoln last night did not hesitate to say that he told Mr. Bryan frankly of his opposition to him and of his intended ef forts to defeat him in the interest of the party. GLEXX WITHDRAWS HIS XAME Leaves South Without Candidate for Vice-Presidency. DENVER, July 4. The Vice-Presidential situation with reference to John W. Kern, of Indiana, is not un mixed with complications which are gradually coming to the surface through members of the Indiana dele gation now on the ground. The dele gation from the Hoosler State will hold its first meeting tomorrow after noon, when the matter of officially putting forth the Indiana man for the Vice-Presidency will bo considered and probably decided upon. Further fea tures of Indiana politics are expected to appear at that time which affect Mr. Kern's candidacy. Prominent Democrats in the Indiana delegation have expressed themselves as confident that whatever may be the issue in the Presidential race in Indi ana this Fall, the state is certain to be carried by the Democrats for the state ticket, including the Legislature, which will elect a successor to Senator Hemenway. Governor R. B. Glenn, of North Caro lina, who arrived today, signalized his coming by putting a quietus on the Vice-Presidential boom which has been sta.'ted in his behalf. "I do not believe it would be best for the ticket to have a Southern man on it," he said, "and shall not per mit my name to be presented. Our delegation is steadfast for Bryan, and, believing he will be nominated and elected, I shall not place any stumbling block in the way of his success." The withdrawal of Governor Glenn leaves the South unrepresented in the Vice-Presidential race. LEWIS RECEPTIVE CANDIDATE Chicago's Pink-Whiskered Colonel Takes Boom to Denver. DENVER, July 4. The latest Vice Presidential candidate to reach the city is Colonel J. Hamilton Lewis, of Chi cago, who. wh'ile making no extravagant claims, admits that he would not decline the nomination if the friends who are pressing his candidacy should succeed in landing the prize for him. He says he will have supporters in Georgia. Virginia, Washington, Idaho and other states. air. Lewis democratically walked from the railroad station to his hotel, stopping on the way to greet his old friends and to express his views on the. topics of the day. He pronounced unequivocally for Mr. Bryan, and on the subject of the platform declaration on injunctions said: "I must insist that the Democratic party must remain where it put itself in 1S96 and 1900, and by ratification in 1904. We should repeat the platform and take no step which would imply apologies for the past or indicate a mere bid for votes. We have announced our position as a principle and should let the matter rest there. The plank should stand as it has been stated." TALK OP KEW CANDIDATE William J. Gaynor, of New York, May Enter Race. DENVER, July 4. A new candidate for the Vice-Presidency on the Demo cratic ticket appeared on' the horizon this afternoon when it was announced by Representative "William Sulzer, of New York, that William J. Gaynor would be supported by the delegation from that state in the event that Judge Gray, of Delaware, insists upon his de termination not to run. Judge Gaynor is regarded by the New York politicians as one of the strong est men of their party in New York State, and the New York delegation be lieves that with him on the ticket suc cess will be assured. BAKER THEATER CLOSES Stock Company Disperses and Mem bers Seek Summer Retreats. With Hoyt's "A Bunch of Keys" the Baker Stock Company closed its season in Portland last night and the Baker Theater was closed for the Summer, and perhaps forever, as the home of a stock company. Members of the company will depart in a few days for various destinations for the Summer season. Practically all of them will leave Portland, soma going to the mountains to rusticate, and oth ers to California and other points. Miss Izetta Jewel will leave in a few days for Southern California: the Glea sons will also leave shortly for a point in that state; Miss Louise Kent will spend three or four weeks in the country near Portland, then she will go to Cali fornia, having selected the ocean route. Miss Maribel Seymour will probably spend the vacation period at Long Beach, and Donald Bowles has planned to spend his vacation at Alameda. Earle Dwlre, Wil liam Wolbert and others will go to the mountains and spend a few weeks at Soda Springs, or some other place away from the city. William Dills, it is said, will devote the entire vacation period to fishing. George Baker, manager of the theater, will devote the Summer to overlooking the remodeling of the Baker and Empire Theaters and to his Councilmanlc duties.
