Mr.. Bryan's conversion to a belief In
sound money would, in my opinion, be a
reason for national rejoicing, but any
abandonment or abasement of the frank
ness and sincerity which have always
distinguished him would be little short
Of national calamity. We need not ac-
cept Mr.. Bryan as an infallible or even
as sound authority on economies, TO
acknowledge that his integrity, his
truthfulness and absolute sincerity have
been among the most saIutary Influences
Of this genera ton on our political life
It is certain that this country is indebt-
ed to him for the gold standard law,
which, though it has the defects of its
party origin, is the best contribution to
our national stability since the resump-
ton Of specie payments. II the Demo
cratic platform OF 1896 had been evasive
as unquestionably it would have been If
the so-called conservatives had CONTROL
ed the convention, can anybody doubt
that the Republicans would have met
evasion weth evasion and that the fnan-
cfal issue would still be unsettled, hang
ing ike sinister shadow over our in
dustrial system? Mp. Bryan's frank. sin
cere and UneQuivocals advocacy OF free
silver forced the Republican party re-
luctantly to declare in favor Of the gold
standard. The result was not that which
Mr.. Bryan sought; none the less it was
produced by him. Because he was sin
cerely wrong he forced the Republican
politicians to become insincerely right.
To this sincerity of Mr. Bryan the coun-
try Is indebted for the opportunity TO
pass squarely and decisively upon the
issue OF imperialism. If the republic Is
TO be overthrow, the assault must now
be made in the open light OF day. It is
no longer possible to strangle it under
cover OF misleading and hypocrftical
phrases. In this open fight for liberty
surely every antrim perialist should be
read to bear his part. Y Hesitation TO
avail ourselves Of the leadership under
which alone opposition 10 imperialism
can be made effective through distrust
Of the leaders views on economic ques-
tons not now at issue, would be as
senseless as hesitation 70 employ a sur
geon on whise skill depended the sole

Hgious belief
Il can hardly Be necessary To say that
We who four years ago sacrificed our po-
litfcal prospects and personal associations
