It could not exist as a pluto cratic party." William J. Bryan. (By Leased Wire to The Times) Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 12' "A battle lost a war but begun." is the cap tion of the first page editorial in this week's issue of William J. Bryan's newspaper. "The election of 1908 is over and the returns disclose a signal victory for our opponents, but the principles for which our party stands, the poli cies for which our party contends, these are not dead. A good propo sition is not made bad by rejection at the polls; a needed reform is not made unnecessary by an adverse vote. ... "The legislation' asked for by the democratic party in its national plat form was not of a temporary charac ter; it was legislation which will be of permanent advantage when it is secured "Does anvone believe that the American people will permanently permit the will of the voters to be thwarted as it is now, by the election of senators through legislatures? Does anyone believe that the trusts will be permitted permanently to ex plolt the masses? "Does anyone believe that the con sumer will permanently permit the tariff to be written by the beneflclar Ice of that tariff? Does anyone be lieve that the public will permanent ly tolerate estrangement between la bor and capital? . ... "Does anyone believe that the fif teen millions of depositors will for ever permit their savings to be jeo pardized as at present? Does any one believe that the extravagance of the government will go on forever unchecked? Does anyone believe that our republic will permanently consent to a colonial policy with lib humiliations and financial burdens? There must be a party representing the people's protest against wrong in high places, against corruption In politics, and against the oppression of the struggling masses.

Spreading Rails Ditched Train and Twelve Are Hurt in Crasl) A WILD EXCITEMENT Many Passengers Were Bruised and Battered As They Were Hurled From Their Berths Lights Were Extinguished and There Was Great Confusion in the Darkness. Men and Wouk-ii Were Thrown To gether in Heaps on the Floors us the Cars Left tin Ralls. (By Leased Wire to The Times) Rochester, N. Y., Nov. 12 The Twentieth Century Limited express, the premier train of the New York Central Railroad, was wrecked early today at Blossom Road crossing, two and one-half miles east of this city. Twelve persons were nurt. Spread ing rails ditched the last three of the six Pullman coaches, of wlilrh the limited was made up. Wild excitement prevailed, women fleeing the wrecked curs in their night: clothing. Many passengers were bruised and buttered as they were hurled from their berths. The extinguishing of the lights in the cars added to confusion as the three cars bumped over the ties and into an em bankment. Mrs. E. H. McCormick and Mrs. L. H. McCormick, of Chicago; E. B. Kimball W. H. Noyes, and J. C. Ham mond, of New York, and J. J. Stor row, of 217 Beacon street, Boston, were hurled from their berths with terrific force and all were cut by flying glass and bruised. A frtfd scene followed. Women" and men were thrown together In heaps on the floor aB the cars left the rails. In the rush to get out. several persons were trampled, The train had left Rochester after its usunl two-minute stop. It had reached a headway of 25 miles an hour when the, crossing was reached and this fact undoubtedly prevented heavy loss of life. The embankhie'nt against which the cars landed pre vented their overturning. The Mrs. E. H. McCormick Is said to be the wife of a wealthy leather merchant. Mrs. L. H. McCormick Is said to he Mrs. Leander Hamilton Mc Cormick, formerly Miss Constance Plunimer, and related to Harold Mc Cormick, of the rich harvester fam ily. ".".:""..;-:".:' The Twentieth Century Limited, when it wus started as an 18-hour train between New York and Chicago, aroused such protest that two hours were added to Its schedule. After it had continued for a time as a 20-hour train it was put back at the 18-hour schedule. JOHN W. KERN WILL . ; BE ELECTED SENATOR (By Leased Wire to The Times) Washington, Nov. 12 John W.

(By Leased Wire to The Times St. Paul, Minn.. Nov. 12 In an interview Inst night on I he demo cratic campaign and the future of the democratic partv, Governor .lohn A. Johnson said: "It is to soon after election to talk freely. If, within il:e next few months, T had been convinced that there was any desire on l:ie part of the rank and file of the democracy, for an expression of mv view on nn icnal Questions, l lion I will uhullv give them. And if I do siie ik, I will speak plainly and to the point. There wlU'.be no chance for anvone to mis understand me." 'We won, and won docisivolv (in Minnesota) and in winning we gave the steel trust and other great cor porations that were lined up against us, In the fight, one ot the worst .lick lags that they ever had and one which they will remember for some years to come." Speaking of the situation in gen eral, Governor Johnson' continued: "The storm has not :vet. cleared away. There is a niin-kiness in the democratic sky; the water, agitated by the storm, is still soiled. There is a feeling of .exultation In some quar ters, -of soreness in others. Time Is a great healer and will heal these sore spots, just as a Utile sunshine will brighten the sky and clear the muddv waters. "In view of the fact that mv name was voted for in the democratic con vention in Denver as a candidate for the presidency.- I consider that it would be indelicate for me to give any expression of opinion as to causes contributed to the defeat of democ racy in the country at large, or what must be done to remedy condition If the party Is to make Itself a force that will be felt and seriously con sidered in campaigns to come." While Governor Johnson did not say so from the trend of his conver sation, it was easy to see that he would like to see William Jennings Bryan declare himself on the causes for his third defeat and his position in the future .is regards his leader ship of the partv. "I think hundreds of thousands of democrats representing what might be called botn elements of the party -I do not like the word faction would be very glad to hear from Mr. Bryan at this time," Is the guarded way in which Governor Johnson puts it. ,'. .: Powder Mill Explodes.

' . . Governor Glenn today Issued his annual Thanksgiving Proclamation, It reads as follows: Proclamation by the Governor. State of North Carolina. Another year has come and gone, bringing its sorrows and its Joys, its reverses and its prosperity; but, if a true account Is taken, we will And our mercies largely exceed our ills; and, therefore, we have much for which to be thankful. It is a beautiful custom for the President of the United States and the Governors of the various StateB once a year to issue a Thanksgiving Proclamation, asking the people "to forget not all their benefits," but to praise the Lord, "who crowneth us with loving kindness and tender mer cies,'" and "satlsiieth our mouths with good things.'" This Thanksgiving Day, set apart from all others, is no meaningless observance; neither should It be re garded Bimply as a day of pleasure or rest from ordinary labor, but as a day. above, all days,oa which we ears and should express gratitude to our Master for undeserved blessings, both to us individually and as a State and Nation. -,' We have, indeed, much for which to be thankful.
