AGAINST ILL
His Victory a Remark-
abie Exhibition of
Personal Power.
By HECTOR ELWELL.
DENVER, July 10.—The nomination
of William J. Bryan at 3:46 o’clock this
morning wan one of fhe most remark
able exhibition* Of one-man power that
has been exhibited In the history of
American politics.
It was greater than that popularly
accredited to President Roosevelt, who
nominated William H. Taft, In Chicago,
two weeks ago, because, having the
powers of Federal patronage back of
him, ho had the strongest organization
lmaglnabls.
William J. Rrynn carried the Demo
cratic convention by a vote of 892 1-2
single-handed. Ho did not have the or
ganization. but ho did have the ballot.
The leaders of the party In their own
hearts were against him. but still In
one of the most remarkable sessions of
. Its kind the 1,006 Democratic delegates
voted and by overwhelming majority
showed that they were for Bryan's
nomination, despite what the purty
leaders thought.
Leaders Saw the Inevitable.
No one can help but admire a man
who could accomplish whnt he did In
Denver today Just as the daylight crept
up on the east and brought Into view
the piled masses In the Rockies. No
one can say but tlint he did It single-
handed and alone. The enthusiasm
which came at the lost moment came
because the leaders saw that It was
Inevitable—Bryan would be nominated
by Just what he rnld he would, and
that was by over 800 votes. The dem
onstration of the day before ivna the
prophet of what tvas to follow 24 hours
later.
There was no doubt In the world but
what It had been carefully planned to
have blind Senator Gore make the first
mention of Bryan’s name to the con
vention to draw It out. and that the
aentlment waa there that day. He
found out. The delegates stood on their
chairs for 88 minutes and cheered.
That foretold what happened In the
early dawn of Denver today.
As a poll of the votes of states was
taken surprise .after surprise followed.
The only stale* which demanded a poll
of their delegates were New York and
Pennsylvania. In Pennsylvania, where
Colonel J. M. Oulfey fought against
Bryan but was beaten, the vote was
divided, but most of them went to
Bryan
In New York "Boss" Murphy led the
list for Bryan votes, and under tho unit
rule which prevailed there, the 78 votea
of New York went to Bryan. Illinois
Stood out solid, 54 votes for Bryan.
Everything Not 8ottled.
The settlement of the nominee, head
of the ticket, does not settle every
thing. There were anywhere from 20
to 40 candidates In. the held for the
second place on the ticket. Most of
these men seconded the nomination of
Bryan early this morning. Today,
when the convention convenes at 1
o'clock, there may he another battle
unless the Bryan steam-roller keepa
up the pace and names the man who
will be Bryan's running-mate.
There are at least two strong possi
bilities In the held. Judge aray, of
Delaware, ran ahead of Governor John
A. Johnson, of Minnesota. In the vot
ing for first place, and today It Is con
ceded that If he will take the second
place there can be no question of hla
nomination. The other man Is Archi
bald McNeill, of Connecticut. If Gray
does not take the place, McNeill la
the strongest man. From Francis Bur
ton Harrison, of New York, the list
dwindles In Importance. It finishes on
some one In the West. It Is conceded
that the East shall have the naming
of the vice president, and New York Is
the logical state to gel It.
Bryan Not Unaware.
What happened In Denver's beautiful
convention hall early this morning was
not unknown to the noinlneo.
Colonel John E. Martin, sergeant-at-
arms, got Into communication with Mr.
Brian by long-distance telephone w hen
the second Bryan demonstration start
ed and placing his ear to the long-dis
tance telephone Mr. Bryan heard the
demonstration which followed the dem
onstration of his name made by Mr.
Dunn.
"Oh, that I could see that!" he shout
ed over the telephone to Colonel Mar
tin.
"I sm a happy man tonight."
That happened early In the evening.
It was eight hours afterwards tlmt the
delsgstes scraped the last hit of sound
from the Interior of their throats by
making Bryan's nomination unanimous.
One by one Connecticut. Delaware and
Minnesota moved that the nomination
be made unanimous. The vote was car
ried on the wings of one last scream of
joy and William Jennings Bryan be
came for the third time the leader of
the Democratic party In Its light against
the Republicans.
The convention adopted a platform In
entire accord with Bryan's views on
the financial and labor situations and
with many admirable planks In It. The
f ilatform will be one of the strongest
tarns the Republicans will have to deal
with when It comes to campaigning.
The platform's adoption was even
more unanimous than that of the nomU
nation of pryanj
There was In that convention along
toward the wee sms' hours this morn
ing one of the greatest spectacles of
hospitality that has ever been presented
to an aggregation of that kind. Evi
dently Mr. Bryan had written to the
leading members of all the delegations
giving thsm the honorary place of sec
onding hie nomination. Chairman Hen.
ry D. Clayton, by this time volceleee
and almost. Incapacitated from his
strenuous day, carried the seconding
program thru, ajtho the convention was

DENVER, July 10.—It was fitting
that a brilliant lawyer from Omaha by
the name of Dunn (Ignatius B., to-be
exart) should put the finishing touch
upon Bryan's triumph. Whether he did
It well or III does not matter; as a innt-
ter of fact he did it mighty well, re
counting all of attribute and achieve
ment that have inude the Nebraskan
the mnn of the hour. It was one of the
predetermined things of. this foreor
dained' affair that there should be a re
sponse that should be heard around the
nation. And there was. Dunn's Im
passioned climax, spoken from the soul
and from his swaying shoulders, "Ne
braska’s unconquerable son. William
Jennings Bryan." were the last articu
late sounds that the vast audience
hoard for a full hour.
There was sound enough, hoarse-
thronted. full-volumed and unquench
able. accompanied by all the gay cir
cumstances of demonstration, to-wlt,
the fluttering of countless flags, the
crash of the band In every unforgotten
ballad, the circling and reclrcllng of the
state standards, the massing of guidons
und banners, and the entire multitude
seemingly upon thetfr feet to stamp or
wave or shout or gesticulate their ap
proval. Home small things stood forth,
strangely appealing In all this terrific
Jargon. A flock of white doves wheeled
their noiseless flight in that cyclone of
sound, dipping under the great Ameri
can eagles that sheltered the platform
with their motionless wings. Doves of
peace, possibly—their first Intrusion on
a Democratic national convention since
the invasion of free silver. Then poised
high upon a Democratic shoulder was a
fair-haired child bearing a standard
aloft and forming a central figure In a
colorful and animated group of flag-
bearers at the forefront of the speakers’
stand. It was a sweet touch of childish
Innocence and delight In that frenxled
hour. Here and there In the gallorles
and on the floor one descried points of
especially violent commotion, even Io
the midst of a scene that was nil' clam
or and tumult. A delegate dipping a
portrait of lirynn to the cadence of the
music of a white-gowned Barbara
Frltchle loaning far out over the bal
cony’s edge, shaking forth not one of
our country’s flags, but two or three,
and accompanying the unfurling of the
colors with the wildest vocal contribu
tions to the tremendous din—these were
the details of a demonstration that In
its entirety Is Blmply Indescribable.
The Republican View of It.
Quite as odd a tribute ns the noise-
makers of the national conventions are
the interpreters of the noise-making.
The Irreconclled of the Democracy say
at once "Bryan Mania In Its Most Vio
lent Stages."
The Republican onlookers sniff and
say: "Stage business slmplj’. all ma
chinery," which Is an admission that
the Democracy lends In dramatics as in
convention mechanicians.
Finally come the cloud of Bryanltes
and exclaim:
■"Behold, how the people acclaim him
above any other nominee who ever
made a national convention howl!"
This Is the official and only author
ised version of an hour and a half’s
pandemonium for tho Nebraskan on
Wednesday and another hour of ear-
splitting vocnllstlcs on Thursday. The
Republican newspaper writers see sure
defeat for the Democrats In the stollc
silence of New * 1 York. Minnesota. New
Jersey, Delaware and Georgia In the
midst of all this fevered action and
long-sustained delirium of noise. But
If the enthusiasm is of the mimic sort,
solely mechanical and meaningless,
what portent of disaster can there pos
sibly be In the non-partlclpatlon of
these half doxen states In the hour-long
In an uproar and almost a riot all the
time.
Speakers Were Hooted.
Time after time men arose to second
the nomination, when the delegates
would coll "Time!" almost before he
could start. Some of them were hooted
from the platform. Others withstood
the shouting delegates and fought to
the bitter end la their effort to get their
views on Bryan and Democracy before
the convention. It was. almost from
the start of the seconding speeches to
the end. a scene of disorder and dis
cord.
Even during the presentation of the
name of Judge Ora:*, the delegates at
tempted to dismiss th^ speaker by cai*-
tng lime, but he persisted and com- •

demonstration for the Nebraskan?
Dunn’s Speech.
Dunn's speech nominating Bryan was
as follows:
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the
Convention:
Crises arise In the life pf nations
which endanger their Institutions and,
at times. Imperil the advance of civili
zation.
Every people that has left Its Im
press upon history has faced auch
crises.
In most Instances where grave dan
gers have threatened the safety of the
state some grent character, some mas
ter mind,, has been found, produced as
It were by the conditions themselves,
with capacity to direct aright the ener
gies of the people.
This was true of the ancient world;
It has been true of the modern world;
It Is true of this republic.
Wfc. have such a crisis to meet today.
The favor-seeking corporations have
gradually strengthened their hold upon
the government until they now menace
popular institutions.
Tho question Is whether this govern
ment shall be restored to the control of
the people and be administered In the
Interest of nil, or whether It shall re
main an Instrument In the hands of the
few for levying tribute upon all the
rest.
If the charges made by the president
arc true—ami they are true—we are,
Indeed, fnce to face with a situation as
grave ns any In our history. How shall
It be met? The good sense, patriot
ism and united action of the people
alono can remedy present evils.
To wage a successful flght wo must
have a leader. The Republican party,
nominated by the seekers of special
privileges, can not furnish him. Re
publicans who really desire reform are
powerless; the efforts of the president
have been futile.
The Democratic party must furnish
the leuder which present conditions de
mand. and he must be a man known to
He free from the Influences that control
the Republican party. He must be a
mnn of superior Intellect, sound Judg
ment, positive convictions and moral
courage—one who will meet the forces
of plutocracy with the naked sword of
truth—one who knows no surrender.
Ho must have a genius for statecraft;
he must be a man of wide experience In
public affairs; he must have ability to
formulate policies and courage to de
fend them.
But, above nil, he must have faith In
the people. Ho must not only believe
In the right of the people to govern, but
In their capacity to do so. And he must
be a man whom the people know and
trust.
One Above All Others.
The Democratic party has many dis
tinguished men who might be chosen ns
our standard bearer; but it hns one
man who, above all others, possesses
the necessary qualifications and is em
inently fitted for this leadership.
He Is a man whose nomination will
leave no doubt as to where our party
stands on every public question. His
fenlus for statecraft Is shown by the
constructive work he has done in pro
posing reforms, and by the ability with
which he has fortified his position. But
we may go further.
In the most distinguished peace con
vention that has assembled In recent
years, he proposed'a plan which. If
adopted, would prove more effective
than any arbitration treaty that has yet
been made, and by his influence he se
cured Its approval by the representa
tives of the^ twenty-six leading nations
there assembled.
I have had a close personal and po
litical acquaintance with this man.
whose name Nebraska presents, since
he entered political life. I can testify
from observation as to his political
conduct before he was known to fame.
He was honest, brave and unyielding
then; he Is honest, brave and unyielding
now.
Honesty Is Inherent In him. He was
an honest lawyer before he entered
politics. He was honest In his political
methods before his statesmanship was
recognised by the nation, and he has
been honest throughout h!r political
career.
His convictions have been his politi
cal creed. He has Impressed these con
viction* upon others, not by dictation,
but by arguments addressed to the
Judgment and the conscience.
Believing In the ultimate triumph of
the right, he has never examined ques
tions from the standpoint of expe
diency. He has never Inquired whether

committee on resolutions on that plank.
Gompers said:
"It Is a gratification for me to And
that the Democratic party will declare
for these contentions, for which I and
my colleagues have labored for years. I
am worn out now with this flght, but I
am happy. Tho things for which I
have fought not only affect labor, but
of necessity will go on In their risults
and affect all of the people of this
country* If the abuses of which we com*
olalned are allowed to continue.”
John Mitchell said:
"I think I mav say that we are all
satisfied with the anti-injunction plank
as*agreed upon by the sub-committee.
It Is good, very good. It is more than
we expected. I am only afraid that It
will be amended In the full committee.
It Is particularly gratifying to us to
have Included In this plank the right of
the workers to organize. That Is what
we have fought for so long, and that Is
what Is now made a crime by the Inter
pretation of the Sherman anti-trust law
by the supreme court of the land.
"It Is necessary that labor organize-

Champion of Rights of Stales.
He has been a consistent champion of
the reserved rights of the states. He
favored the election of senators by di
rect vote before the house of repre
sentatives ever acted favorably upon
the subject. He championed tariff re
form when the West waa the hotbed of
protection. ,
He favored an Income tax before the
Income tax law wad written. He at
tacked the trusts when Republican
lenders were denying that any trusts
existed. He advocated railroad regu
lation before the crusade against re
bates and discrimination began.
He hns always been the friend of la

conciliation between labor nnd capital.
He began to oppose government by In
junction more than a decade ago. He
announced his opposition to Imperial

When a Wall-et. panic burst upon

Lincoln Resolution
Caused Stormy Scene
DENVER, July 10.—One of the un
pleasant Incidents of the convention oc
curred Immediately after Governor
Haskell, of Oklahoma, had concluded
his report as chairman of the platform
committee.
John E. Lamb, of Indiana, waa recog
nised for the purpose of ottering a reso
lution requesting that the centennial of
Llncoln’e birthday be properly celebrat
ed throughout the country. Chairman
Clayton, after calling for the ayes, de
clared that as the son of a Confeder
ate soldier and former slave-holder, he
would not put the negative on eufh a
motion, declaring It carried unanimous
ly-
Isaac L. Straus of Maryland, who
had tried to get recognition, moved for
a reconsideration. This secured for
Mr. Straus a storm of disapproval with
erlea of "put him out” and the like. A
motion to table It was made and car
ried with a great shout. Later when
the seconding speeches were In progress
Mr. Straus, who waa to second Gray,
attempted to explain that he wanted to
have the Lincoln resolution reconsid
ered to Include In It a great contem
porary of Lincoln. He waa howled
down before he could give the name
and waa not permitted to make hla
speech aecondlng the Gray nomination.

an waa named by the Democratic con
vention as Its candidate for president
at 3:40 o’clock this morning, Denver
time, after an all-night ecsslon. which
was at first enthusiastic, then tiresome
and finally enthusiastic.
Before the secretary had complied the
vote. Representative Hammond, who
hod named John A. Johnson, moved to
make the nomination unanimous. He
was quickly followed by Georgia, Dela
ware and other states which had cast
votes for other men. The motion was
carried and the convention took a re
cess till 1 o’clock today, when a run
ning-mate for Bryan will be selected.
Nominating and seconding speeches
were delivered in the following order:
I. J. Dunn, of Omaha, nominated
Bryan, Alabama having yielded to Ne
braska. Mr. Dunn was interrupted by
& demonstration over an hour. Ar
kansas yielded to Oregon, and former
Senator Geary, of Oregon, seconded
Bryan’s nomination. Kansas yielded to
Governor R. B. Glenn, of North Caro
lina. who seconded the nomination of,
Bryan. Colpra'do yielded to Virginia
and Governor Swanson seconded the
nomination of Bryan.
W. S. Hammond, of Minnesota, nom
inated Johnson, the nomination being
seconded by delegates from Minnesota,
Georgia and Connecticut.
Irving Handy, of Delaware, nomi
nated Gray.
The chapman then Introduced Gov
ernor Haskell, of Oklahoma, chairman
of the committee on resolutions, who
presented the platform. Florida yield
ed to Missouri, and Augustus Thomas,
of Missouri and New York; seconded
Bryan’s nomination.

Hill, qf Georgia, on behalf of the ml
norlty of that state, pledged to Bryan
Georgia’s 13 electoral votes.
Senator Mooney, of Texas, by favor
of Idaho, and former Congressman W.
E. Williams, of Illinois, seconded Bry
an In short speeches. Indiana gave
way to Kentucky nnd Congressman
Ollle James took the stand. The big
Kentuckian Is very popular. He is a
good speaker to such a crowd. He
thinks Bryan is the greatest man that
ever lived, and he doesn’t care who
knows It. He was given the finest
spontaneous sample of enthusiasm
when he concluded. J. B. Sullivan, of
Iowa, and J. B. Gilmore, of Louisiana,
had a hard time making a few brief
remarks, as did also Mr. Reed, of Kan
sas City. New York had nothing to
say and New Jersey seconded Gray
briefly. Nebraska gave way to Con
gressman Heflin, of Alabama, and this
statesman had a "hard row of stumps
to hoe,” as his fellow-Alabamans would
put It.
The guying began with his first sen
tence and continued until he finished.
..... Heflin made his speech. Judging
from his gestures, but only the people
on the stand Immediately behind him
heard him.
Blind 8enator Held the Crowd.
When Oklahoma was reached Sena
tor Gore was sent to the stand to tell
how much the new state wanted Bryan.
It is wonderful the hold this blind man
has on the great crowds which fill the
auditorium. Tho previous spenkers had
been guyed to the point of Insult, the
minute Senator Gore was led to the
platform the noise was calmed as If by
magic, and It was only on his volition
and despite cries to continue that he
ceased speaking. From then on to the
end it was a succession of announce
ments of the states that they were solid
for Bryan.
