Well, we are all I'arker men now,
Mr W J Brya" included, and, with
all factions ot tin' J'emocrattc party
pulling together for tin- election of

, 5 reason to hope for his election, and
the defeat of the "broncho buster"
v which is the inai if object, after all.
J Although Judge I'arker is so little
I known among the masses, the wis
I duiu of his nomination inusi be ad
i niittcd when the overwhelming vote
1 lie n-ceived on the lirst ballot is con
I sidered ii;;i out of total of Sail,
J Hearst receiving l'.m. The addition-
al fact that only about half of them
had lieen iiistnictfd for him clearly
; proves that the leaders of the party
' all over the country became conlirui
, I ed in the belief, after reaching St.

f dile man. Otherwise lie could not
have been iioniiimted; for there was
lilcniv of time and there were enough
i mo l. d n il votes to have defeated

to do to.

"Yes. I did. Hut 1 received 1,000.000

lien- Mr. Hryan paused and llitiiiK
his head, swept the hall with his Kazo.
"Why did I fall?" he asked, and re-
llnc lo his own question, he said:
'Ilecause (here vcre some who had
alliiiated with tne Democratic parly
who thought my election daiiReroiis to
the country. They helped to elect my
opponent. That Is why. Out I have no
criticism for them."
Mr. Hryan declared that. If Hearst
was the best man, Nebraska would
support him. Thi n he spoke of Wall,
and declared Nebraska would wil
lingly support him. Then he spoke of

support hint.
Hryan said he only mentioned these

I leiriml the cold standard at

He said finally that he desired to sec
snd the nomination of Sonator Cock

The voto was brought about by Del
egate James Kerr, of Pennsylvania,
demanding the regular order. The
chairman was rapping In vain for si
lence and the clerks were Imploring
tbo delegates to be seated.
"Vote! Vote!" was heard and with
out delay the clerk started the call.
The call then went on rapidly and
without causing comment. At the close
It stood 658 for Parker. Before the vole
was announced Idaho changed her six
votes, giving him C64. and West Vir
ginia added three votes, giving him the
667 votes, or two-thirds necessary.
This was followed by a motion by
Champ Clark to make the nomination
of Parker unanimous. Great enthusi
asm followed, and a monster American
flag was unfurled from the dome of the
building. The band struck up "The
Star Spangled Hanner."
Patrirk A. Collins, of Massachusetts,
took the stand to second the motion to
make the nomination unanimous, dele
gates standing on chairs and waving
flags, making it almost Impossible fur
him to be heard. The vote was made
unanimous, and then t tic convention
broke loose.
Kignt thousand small flags were
waving from the pit to the galleries,
and the great Coliseum wa.s a waving
mass of red. white and blue, with the
great yellow dome overhead alto
gether it made a wonderful 'picture.

"Jinloe I'm-ki-r is in all respects an
admirable man to be made president.
He is a true Democrat, and if his
candidacy docs not create enthusi
asm it docs satisfy the judgment of
tlie voters. He will grow in the con
fidence of thi' people as the campaign
pnieiossis, and 1 believe he will be
elected. The people want a faithful,
servant, and not a dictatorial master,
in the White House at Washington.
