WASHINGTON DEMOCRATS IN
1 LINE FOR BRYAN
Former Senator Turner suggests former lead
er and Gov. Chamberlain for president and
Vice-president and arouses enthusiam |
(Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan.)
Seattle, June 13.? The largest and
most enthusiastic gathering of demo
crats that has taken place in many
years was at the state democratic ban
quet last night. The notable feature j
of the occasion was the launching of a ?
boom for William J. Bryan, as the '
democratic presidential candidate, and j
, one for Gov. Chamberlain, of Oregon, |
for vice-president, by former Senator
George Turner, as the principal speaker i
of the evening. He said that with these
champions of the American masses as!
standard bearers of the democratic j
party,? the party.of Jefferson? would
sweep the United States from ocean to
ocean- in 1908. The names of Bryan and
Chamberlain, and the eloquently ex
pressed sentiments of Senator Turner,
were greeted with the wildest enthusi
asm and tremendous cheering, resem
bling that which awakened the west
during the first Bryan campaign.
A letter of regret was read from Col.
James Hamilton Lewis, corporation
counsel for the city of Chicago, and a
former Washington staie democratic
leader and party idol. Col Lewis added
to the Bryafi enthusiasm. He said
President Boosvelt is carrying out
the anti-trust policy advocated by Bry
an in 1906 and consistently urged by
him continuously since that time.
Other speakers last night were Alden
J. Blethen, editor of the Seattle Times,
Thomas M. Vance and others.
The nanus of William JR. Hearst
and Alton B. Parker were not mention
ed during the evening.
All the democratic state leaders
were present and the sentiment ex
pressed was one for immediate organ
ization for the fight in 1908, with the
only democratic candidate who ever
carried the state as the national leader.
& club will be organized next Monday.
