Cleveland ami Hill accepted tbe invitatiou of the TUden club and made speeches in New York city on Thur*day night; but Bryan, like Achilles, ulked in his tent. Though invited, he refuted to attend, showing conclusively that he does not intend to with tried and true demo crata of tbe east. He can fraternize very readily with tbe populitts of tbe we*t, aa appear* by bis letter to tbe editor of the Madison Mail, in wbicb be declare* that be will not be a candidate for Governor of Nebraska against tbe populist candidate. These extr&cts from bis letter shows where hit sympathy* are: "My Dear Mr. Allen: I have jutt read tbe editorial which appeared in the laat issue of your paper. The Madlaon Mail. While I nave not thought It proper to take public notice of tbe Ogge-tiona tbat have occasionally been made in line with your editorial, your prominence in the populist party *n<i ivour hiffh standard among tbe democrats of Nebraska and the nation would seem to mane some reply necessary, ahd I ausweratonce. I need not assure you that I appreciate the compliment which you pay me, ae I do tbe , frieodtfhip that you have shown to- i wards me oo former occasions. Neither 1 need I repeat my expressions of gratitude to tbe democrats and populists of tbe state for tbe support tbey have given me. After twelve years of ser- 1 vice, four of which were spent in con- , grew and eight in tbe advocacy of , these reforms for which democrats and populist have cooteuded, etc. | "I may add that I am looking for?H?h niM.urH to ao onoorluuity 1 to retort) some of the favor*'that have been t*sLowed upon me. In five cam* ptkni I have received the oonetaut i and unwavering support of the demo- 1 crats of Nebraska. In the campaign* , of '92 add '94 I was supported by many < poftuliatr, and in 1896 and 1900 received ' the vote* of all the fusion populists 1 , am now In a position to make return and I am not willing to intercept a reward which is due to these friends. J am not willing to deprive any one of , thtmof the hunor that attends a gu* 1 bernatorlal nomination or election. j "For these reasons I am not aud cao- , not be a candidate, aud I beg you to make no further mention of my name 1 in oonneotion with this offlce. On the j contrary, I hope you wiil hold yourself In rwMlinew to ibrow your great Influence to such democrat or populist as may in the opiuiou of tbe delegates , Sve the best promise of uniting the i sion forces of the state in a supreme 1 effort to recover tbe state from tne re- , publican hands.?W. J. Bryan." It is 4 democrats and podulists" all ( the way through, lie wauls lo "make j, return'' now to the ptopullsts for their (f support by helping oue of their odd* J her to the gubernatorial Domination. | Well, gratitude la an admirable trait. Aud be wants the editor ol tbe Mail to hold hlmeeJf in readiness to throw his grant influence to such "democrat or populist"?It seems to be immaterial lo mm whloh?as shall get tbe uoini- i nation. In other words, Col. Bryas can joiu hands with populists iu Nebraska to < "recover the stale from republican ' rule," but be canuot join hands with such democrats as Cleveland and Hill to recover the uatiou from republican rule. i 8till there are lots of people who i think that Col. Bryan ought to be the leader of the democracy iu 1904, as he , was In 1896 and 1900. CHEEKY TREE MEN. H hi CMS |II,H#-Tha ? MM Wb? lagaKMl la (ke Wurh Bmln B*mra ?f f fcelr wary.
