Bryan's Present and Future, Politically.
u. y. gITRDOCK. -


Croker the horseracer; Dick Croker the Prophet OF
Tammany in Bryans estimation before starting for his
home in England is out with the that no power
an earth can prevent his Nebraska admrer from remaining
the leader of the Democratic party. AS the Eagle said on
the morning Of the election Bryan viii never again be per
ted to lead the Democratic party defeat Bryan is
not Democrat He is Pop There being no Pop party
now there is nothing left for Bryan lead rampant
Pop speech won him his hrst nomination at Chicago with
oney or Hin or some other Democrat who holds TO and
believes in tenets Of the Democratic party much bet
Ter showing would have been by that party on Last
Tuesday Mckinley might not have been defeated His
raatehless record would probably have saved him The
solid classes and discerning people Of the country were at
bottom afraid Of Bryan Croker is talking through his
hat And speaking Dick Croker If Tammany expects to
remain political factor of national Importance it should
reegate that prince Of thugs summary Bur to Bryan
Thousands upon thousands Of Democrats voted for him
under mental protest knowing him to be professional
gitstor and promoter Of class hatred they and
afraid of him. and he win never again be the nominee Of
that party He may be- and probably viii be, chosen to the
United states senate by fusion legislature but he viii not
be the Democratic leader body As the days Of the
campaign went by and it became every day more certain
that the American people were going 'le wen enough
alone by endorsing the administration Of Mckinley Bryan
grew desperate and turned an open demagogue He as
serted many things that he knew to be untrue. His
declaration that our seacoast cities being fortified for
the purpose Of ensaving the American people was IN
worthy the candidate national party besides is false
as was also assertion by day that the prosperity
and progress boosted by the Republican party without
foundation Everybody different IT, in fact Bryan
really believed any things he would have proved
dangerous man in the White House. According to nearly
every presidential precedent aside from the civil war era
Bryan would have succeeded Mckinley. AS it is, but for
the solid south which blndy, without reason and
only for a name Bryan would not have secured dozen
electoral votes Those would have voted
just as soIdy for Croker had he been the nominee
Of their party AgunaIdO IS selfconfessed traitor who
sold his country to its enemy for money and it nsulted the
Judgment Of the American people en that traitor to
washington Bryan win probably take seat in the
United states senate on 4h next March but
Democrat only in name. His real party having been swa
lowed by the Democratic party If he should ever be
uonal candidate again, win be the candidate Of
mutation or revolutonizing faction Of rregolars.
