speaking in Atlanta on the Fourth.
That was his way of saying that if the
democracy wanted to retreat from the

backward with his party, he wants the
whole nation to walk backward with
him. He is persistently advocating the
retreat of the United States from its
duties and its rights in the Philippines;
he is not only willing, but even anxious
to lead such retreat. Mr.. Bryan is de-
