Bryan's Views

Col. William Jennings Bryan,
having resigned from the army,
is Immediately relieved of lock-
jaw and, IN substance, thus re-
Iieves himself on the question Of
expansion. He resigned because
ne can be more useful to his
country, now that peace is de-
clared, as a civilian than a SOL
dIer. He believes that our coun-
try is now in greater danger
than Cuba. The impcrialistic
idea dethroncs old ideals. He de-
clares that Jefferson was only a
home expan 5ionist, and hence he
sees grave dangers ahead in go
ing into the territory OF the
FIlipines. If Porto Rico desires,
we might annex it.
