POLITICAL New York Democratic Row. Since the Democratic state conven tion at New York, which showed that Charles F. Murphy, the leader of Tam many Hall, had suduenly become the “boss” of the entire state organization. * Charles F. Murphy, tests is the basis for much gossip about the efforts of both factions in New York trying to win the Nebraskan’s favor. During his trip through the state it was said that friends of Murphy had come to an understanding with Bryan, but the lat ter consistently asserted his intention not to take sides in auy state quarrels. Bryan Hits at Socialism. While in New York city Bryan spoke at Cooper Union and answered several questions put to him by the audience One was, “What is the difference be tween socialism and democracy, and what would you do for the unemployed if you were elected?” Answering the latter part first, Bryan said there were two kinds of relief—temporary and per manent. The government itself should provide work sis long as there is any to give, and he added that “if the peo ple are suffering for lack of work it should give slid directly.” But he went on to speak of the permanent remedy, saying: “We need a more equitable dis tribution of the proceeds of human toil. The government can help do this .by correcting those faults, removing those abuses, that work against the principle of a man getting a just re ward for his contribution for the wel fare of bis kind." As to socialism be had this to say: “The Socialist is seek ing relief from present conditions. There are two kinds of Socialists— those who are seeking it in govern ment because their hearts yearn to help those who need help and those who, not finding the reward they think they are entitled to in individualism, seek it in socialism. The Socialist must be met as an honest man fairly and squarely and answered. Accept ing the definition of socialism to be “government ownership of all the means of production and distribution.’ he said: "1 believe that individualism is better than socialism if you will re move the abuses. The Socialist be lieves that competition is evil; 1 do not Let every man have as his reward of wealth whatever measure his intelli gence and industry entitle him to." The government should see to that, he continued, but there was a religious principle which entered also—namely, that the man who can earn more is ac countable to God for his stewardship, lie asserted that socialism does not take into account any large idea of justice, referring to the belief that the man who contributed more to human welfare should have more reward than the other. Another important question which Bryan answered was whether the pol icy of negro disfranchisement in the south is in accord with the brother hood of man. lie replied that where the qualification is educational every negro could fit himself to vote, but that the limit on suffrage is justified only when self protection demands it. lie declared that the white man gives the black a bettor government than the black would give the white. The Republicans had denied to the Filipino the hope of ever obtaining a vote. Bryan was the guest of Governor Fort of New Jersey, Tuesday, and spoke of Katzenbarh. the last Demo- 8J ANTED-A RIDER A6EHT“"”'S imple Latest Model “Ranger" bicycle furnished by us.

New Hampshire Uninstructed. The Republicans of New Hampshire in state convention elected delegates to the national convention without in structions for auy candidate, the reso lution for Taft being voted down. A question put to the convention by a minister as to the choice showed a large preponderance for Taft. Labor Protest Meetings Held. The programme of the American Federation of Labor was carried out with the holding of mass meetings in all the principal cities and towns of the country last week to voice the protest of labor against the recent de cisions of the supreme court touching the boycott and other interests of la bor. President Gompers himself address ed the meeting at New York. He did not question the personal integrity of the members of the supreme court, but argued that they aud all the suc cessful lawyers and judges had been educated wrong by being required to accept the dicta of the courts in recent years in order to be advanced. These decisions had been bought by the vest ed interests in recent years and so the mistakes were perpetuated. The su preme court had tried to place capital, a dead thing, on au equality with la bor, a live creature. Boycotting might be declared illegal, but “I kuow of no law or order that can compel you or me to buy a range from the Buck’s Stove and Range company.’ All the meetings voted to work for the defeat of congressmen who voted against la bor legislation. Offset to Gompers Meetings. A petition of the Citizens’ Industrial association, composed of organizations of employers in over thirty of the larger cities, was presented to congress as au offset to the meetings held by organized labor. It asserts that a direct attack upon the liberties of the people is now being made through the de mand of the Federation of Labor for class legislation intended to favor or ganized labor by enabling it to force tribute from all workingmen on penal ty of being stripped of their freedom to work and earn a living for their families. The petition further objects to the Civic federation amendment to the Sherman law, because it would le galize the boycott, and opposes the anti injunction bill. Claims of Taft and Bryan. If the assertions of the political man agers may be credited, the two presi dential candidates for the presidency this year are as good as chosen by the Republican and Democratic parties— namely. Taft by the former and Bryan by the latter. Up to April 2*2 the Taft managers had counted 500 delegates to the national convention pledged to their man. am) 401 is a majority. This estimate did not include any southern state where there is a contest. The Bryan bureau at Lincoln claimed that three-fourths of the Democratic dele gates were on record for their man. To Probe New York’s Big Debt. A committee of five members of the New York legislature has been ap pointed to investigate into the proc esses which have brought New York city to tlie verge of bankruptcy with a funded indebtedness of $700,000,000. Hughes Calls Extra Session. The New York legislature adjourned April 23 with the anti race track gambling bill and other reform meas ures advocated by Governor Hughes still in their pigeonholes and with open evidence of disrespect for the govern or. In tlie assembly groans followed the mention of bis name, and the sen ate omitted the usual compliments.
