WILL SUPPORT BRYAN.
Former Senator German Loyal to His
Party.

Washington, Feb 14-Ex-Senatol
German. who was at the Capital to
day for the first time since the present
session of congress asst m bled, III an
interview with a Post reporter, said
that all his efforts heretofore had
been directed against the renomina
tion of William Jennings Bryan a.
the democratic candidate for the
presidency, he believing it would not
be wise, but he was now convinced
THAT nothing can prevent his selec-
ton as the head of the democratic
ticket"
He certainly" added Mr.. Cor
man, has the people behind him to
a remarkable degree.
Asked if he would support Bryan if
nominated, he replied: Certainly, !
supported him In 1896, and | shall
support him again this year. do
not propose to desert my party"
He expressed the opinion that his
partys prospects were improving,
Saying that the Nicaragua Canal
treaty aud the Philippine problem
we're helping the democrats. The
passage of the currency BILL he also
thought, would help the democrats,
because it would remove danger of
free coinage of silver and bring back
to their party the men who left it in
1896 on the silver issue.
