Denver, uy 6". Politicians are all alike. The Republican pol
iticians at Chicago sniffed more or less at "our hero," and the "war
.chief, and here the politicians are sneering more or less in private
about the "peerless one." Roosevelt and Kryan have put the poli
tician out of business in the national conventions, so the politician
does not like Roosevelt and Bryan. The politician has his side to
the controversy. He has to spend at least $100 of his good
money coming to the convention.
Prcbably the average would
nearer . 200. He has to take a week
or 10 days from his business and -to
got the election as, delegate he has to
make a fitiht In the district or state
convention which costs him more time
and money, and when he gets to tho
national convention he finds the presi
dential candidate named the platform
written at Chicago and left to Bryan
at Denver- and all that the politician
lias to do with the convention is to
fuss with the delegate from his state
over who shall be national committee
man and explain when he gets homo
why he didn't vote for someone else
for vice-president, -Some time ago 'a
rixlAsmtA to h national convention was
someone, but now, under the regime of
Rooseveft and Bryan, he is as inconse
quential as a presidential election and
thus evry convention which Is a replica
of the Chicago convention in many
wave. Is like It In the strong under
current of feeling there Is against tho
man in the party whom the people
honor.
Secret Ballot Would Defeat.
A secret ballot In this convention
would defeat Bryan and the way thn
delegates rushed away from the
Roosevelt idea to Sherman In the Re
publican -ronventlon Indicates what a
secret ballot might have clone there.
Politicians obey orders. They smile
and pretend to like It, but they would
revolt If They dared. But they havo
the theory of the Republican delegates,
that the people are radical and poli
ticians must pretend to be whether they
are not, so Alton Parker who might be
a leader here If the delegates were
candid and sincere, Is an old four-spot
In a new deck, and while everyone
knows him, no one pays attention to
him.
Parker's Little Look In.
The best that may happen to Judge
Parker will happen if Bryan in Lin
coln decides that Judge Parker may
rise and read the resolution concerning
the death of Orover Cleveland In the
convention when the convention ad
journs out of respect to tho memory of
the ex-president and in compliance with
be-l the promise to the merchants of Den
ver wrio nave been promised a rour
days' convention.
To be allowed mildly to mourn the
death of the only Democratic president
elected in half a century with strict
Injunction not to allow his grief to get
Into politics, Is a reasonably severe lim
itation to be put upon a man who led
the party four years ago. It reminds
ono of Tennyson's line at the death of
Elnlne, when "the dead steered by the
dumb went downward with the flood."
It is the last of the old regime when
"Democracy stood for the least possible
governmental Interference with private
affairs." The denatured grief of the
Democratic convention at -the death of
Cleveland w)Jl mark a distinct epoch in
the history of the Democratic party.
. Balks at Keactionaries.
It seems to be settled that Rrvan
'will not permit any concessions to the
reactionaries of the south and east in
the platform. There was a story in the
hotel corridors that Bryan would give
In to the reactionaries in the matter of
their plank and in the labor plank, but
the story Is not true. The labor plank
will not suit the labor leaders, but it
will not suit the conservatives either,
and just how much further It will go
than the Chicago labor plank, depends
on how badly Mitchell and Gompeis
can scare the resolutions committee.
But the lonesomest people In all the
convention, crowd are Mitchell and
Gompers. The delegates have as little
use for them as they havo for Brvan.
and not having to conceal the dislike
tor the tabor leaders, theft hotel Is bh
quiet as a prayer meeting.
' Socialist Tots.
The fact that the Socialists cast near
ly 600,000 votes four years ago does
not interest the delegates even If it does
concern Bryan. The' delegates are In
terested in trie victory of Guffey in
Pennsylvania, In spite of Bryan's "nro-
test. They are talking about the east
ing out or Mccarren in New York and
tlie sidetracking of Harris of Kansas.

Denver, Colo., July 7. The
daughter of a president and a
presidential possibility reached Den

yesterday. From one direction came
Alico Roosevelt Longworth out of
the east for a genuine vacation. From
the west came Ruth Bryan Leavltt,
primed for the excitement of her life,
the sensation of seeing her distin
guished father stampede the Demo
cratic national convention.
The trains almost met at the Union
station, but the women did not. The
president's daughter was hurried In a
special car to an Isolated corner of the
railroad yards to await the arrival of
an automobile to take her away from
the curious gaze, of the masses.
The daughter of the Commoner
stepped blithely from the train, unus
sibted, and walked briskly to a plain
everv dav streetcwr at the nearest cor
ner. It was home to her. The faces
did not look strange, though the town
was full of convention visitors. Her
eyes filled with pride that every Den
verlte is reveling in Just now and her
head went a little higher, not because
the very breeze seemed to say. "Bryan,

Denver, July 7. As it appears
today, the chances are good that
there will be a fine old Demo
cratic ruction over the naming of
the vice-presidential candidate.
Of the half hundred aspirants and
"receptive" candidates, the two
most prominently mentioned now
are Representative OIlie James of
Kentucky and Charles A. Towne,
formerly of Minnesota and now
of N ew ork.
There are one or two absolute facts
connected with the situation. One is
that if the delegation from the state
of New Tork will, or can, unite upon a
candidate, that mm will be nominated.
If the Empire State does not desire to
avail Itself of this privilege Hryan will
indicate his choice and whoever he
names will be the nominee Amthfr

The .-Auditorium, Denver, Colo.,
July 7. The Democracy of the east
find west today joined hands within
the shadow of the sriow-clad Rockies
to name candidates for president and
vice-president, and to formulate a
set of policies upon which to appeal
to the voters of the nation.
When National Committee Chairman
Thomas "taggart lifted his gavel and
rapped for order, all of the aisles were
choked with delegates and he had to
order the sergoant-a.t-arms Jto get the
delegates seated. Just as It seenicd
that business coiild be commenced,
down the muirale- came the Bryan
volunteers of Nebraska, carrying a big
gold banner bearing a picture of the
Commoner. Many of the delegates rose
and cheered. Ihe banner was carried
to the Nebraska section anil placed
upon a standard, but Chairman Taggar
decline to permit it to remain, and on
his orders it was furled and placed out
of sight
Despairing of Sergeant-at-Arms Mar
tin quelling the confusion, Taggart
finally called upon the uniformed po
licemcn, and after more difficulty they
succeeded
The cheering broke out afresh as tho
California delegation, seizing the op
portune moment, marched down the
aisle, headed by another Hryan banner.
this thoroughly exasperated laggart
and lie finally gave sharp orders to the
police that no more banners were to bo
permitted in the hall until the session
was ended. Tho confusion continued
for 2 1 minutes before order could
finally be restored. Chairman Taggart
then said:
"I cannot refrain from calling your

Long before noon, the hour set for
