At Duluth the other day Gen. Russell
a. Alger, ex-secretary of war, took oc-
casion to puncture one Of the numer-}
GUS bubbles which the Democrats have
blown into the air concerning Col.
Bryan's war record The Democratic
politicians and newspapers have al
ways claimed that Col. Bryan was sup,
pressed and sat down upon by Presi-
dent Mckinley and the war depart
ment out of fear that he, Bryan, would
distinguish himself and become hero
gerous leader of the opposition. AS a
matter Of fact, stated by the ex-secre-
tary--W who, by the way, the Democrats
had expected to take a stand against
McKinley-Col. Bryan did not offer his
services until the second call for troops
was made, and after Nebraska's quota
had been practically supplied. He made
no offer to enlist when the first call
was published. and it was only after
Gen. Funston and other heroes in the
island of Luzon had distinguished
themselves and gained great notoriety;
that he suddenly became possessed Of

American government is wrong in pros

as the war in Cuba was practically at
an end before he could have reached
the scene Of action, the only place
where he could have gone to fight
would have been in the Philippines.
Claiming that this war In the Philip

and wrong, the valiant colonel could
not well have lent his hand to the
Determination Of the Filipino ranks and
the destruction Of the Filipino "repub-

quite clear that Mr.. Bryan did not
want to fight very badly, and he could
