COLONEL BRYAN REFUSES
TO BETRAY A PRINCIPLE

New York, July S.-William ]. Bryan,
in response to a private telegram urg-
ing him to drop the silver issue, wrote
letter to the managing editor of the
World, which was received on May ..
The World today requested Mr.. Bryan's
permission to print the following eX-
tracts, because they gave eastern Dem
ocrats who do not know him a clearer
conception Of his character than any of
his published letters or speeches. Mr..
Bryan gave his permission and the
World will print the following:
Whenever you see in the papers that
I have abandoned silver, or side
tracked it, or tried in any way to evade
it, you can set it down as false. While
men differ as to the relative Importance
of the money question, the trust ques-
ton and Imperialism, l regard all of
them as important and have not yet
attempted to decide which is the most
important. 1t seems to me that the
World ought to be able to see the folly
of my taking sides in the dispute.
Why should [ discourage those who
oppose the gold standard and trusts.
merely to crafty those who think the
QueSllOI VI iii DGIldllSlll the dil-llIl POI L
ant question? Why should | discourage
the anti-imperialists by saying that the
trust question is all-important? Why
should L discourage the opponents of
trusts and Imperialism by saying that
the money question is the only question
to be considered. Others may empha-
size one question or the other. but L
shall emphasize them all. If we are
to win in November we must have the
cooperation of all who oppose Republi-
can policies, and that cooperation can
only be secured by making a fight
along the line.
''The people who oppose the gold
standard also oppose the trusts and i'm
perialism, and there are nine who OPP
pose all three to one who favors the
gold standard and yet opposes the
trusts and imperialism. Why ALLEVIATE
nine in order to please one?

THE men who demand the abandon
ment of the silver question did what
they could to make the party gold
standard party, and when they We're
outvoted they left the party and did
what they could to defeat the ticket.
Now. they want to drive away the Pop
ulists and Silver Republicans who came
to us when the gold Democrats de-
serted.
Whatever influence l may have VIII
be eXerted to holding what we have,
and getting enough from the outside
to defeat the Republicans, and l do not
want it to be Il barren victory. l want
the party to accomplish the reforms to
which it is pledged want the Philip
pines to have a chance to celebrate the
Fourth of jury, and l want every pri-
vate monopoly destroyed, but l also
want silver restored at the ratio of 16
to l, and [ want the national banks
deprived of the power to issue paper
money.
Il also want the constitution so
amended as to permit an income tax,
and the election of senator's by the peO-
pie. In addition to these, | want to see
the system known as government by
injunction abolished. and arbitration
between labor and capital established.
Those who favor free silver favor
all these reforms. Those who favor
the gold standard favor a few of these
reforms. but are against most of them.
l am not willing to trade a large num-
Der of people who are right for d small
number who are part right. l am not
anxious enough for the nomination to
purchase it by sacrificing what 1 be
lieve to be right. If my principles are
as unpopular as gold Democrats think.
why not nominate a gold Democrat?

will find that my strength Cf | have
any) is not all personal. but is due to
principles I advocate. The only part
that is personal is the belief among
our people that I am honest and will
fulfill every pledge 1 make. If 1 gave
them any reason to doubt my willing
ness to go down to defeat rather than
abandon my convictions. they would
turn against me in a moment.
