the wind seeds he sowcu As BRYAN :
ting that he should be swept out Of
the national political arena by a hurli-
cane OF popular condemnation. But
the day OF defeat has its compensa-

makes his pity for the obstinate people
who rejected him take the place Of

downfall. He knows we'll that the

But aside from this. there is much
