Ihe Following excerpts are froma re-
speech by Congressman Bryan.
"The tariff question is the question
which the Republicans want to discuss
in this campaign. A bill has been pass
ed which the Republicans lenonnce be-
cause it hasn't gone ns far as the Demo-
Gratis expected to go. The bill is good
bill, but we only complain because it
isn't better bill. 1t is step in the di-
rection Of tariff reform. don't believe
the Republican party will ever dare to
go into another campaign advocating an
increase Of tariff. This bill has started
toward tho end we aim at. The average

promptness and bravery, telling him he
had done a noble act to plunge In Mt the
risk Of his own life and save that little
colored boy. The fisherman, however
looking at tho stranger in astonishment
said, He had the bait in his pocket

pocket. Ifany Republican tells YOU we
ought to have left the tariff OH wool, ash
him where he gets the authority for the
idea that the man who raises sheep is 81
much better than anybody else. The
declaration OF independence doesn't say
so. 1t says all men are created equal, ant
doesn't say the sheep grower is any diff
ferent than anybody else. Here's piece
