Autograph Letter TO

One of the best independent poll
teal writer's in this country is Mr.. H..
L. West, Of the Washington Post. OF
Bryan's campaign he has this to say in
recent issue of the Post:
If William jennings Bryan could have a
dollar for every mile he has Travelled, he
would be millionaire.
There is no man in the country who
is more familiar with the interior of a
railroad car than Mr. Bryan. Begin
ming in 1896 with tour that embraced
nearly every State in the Union, he has
during the past four years fairly earned
the title of the Great American Traveller.
He has been back and forth across the
continent innumerable times, he has been
up one State and down another, until the
crunching and the grinding of the car
wheels beneath him has been almost the
only music which his ears have heard.
All day long, all night long, this rumb-
ling noise, incessant, monotonous, nerve
wearing.
Bryan has never kept account of the
number of miles which have been rolled

ed when 1 asked him why he had not
done so, and said that life was too short
He is now touring the country in a pr-
vate car named Rambler Four years ago
his car, appropriately enough, was the
Idler This year the Rambler has car
ried him 16, 900 miles, and there are some
ZOO more miles yet scheduled. The car
has been his home for many weeks, and
it will continue to be his perambulating
shelter until he returns to Lincoln on
the day before election. Roosevelt has Q
private car all to himself with additional
sleeping cars in his special train for
newspaper correspondents and politicians
Bryan can only call one little state
room his own. 1t is not large room
although it has double berth and sta
tionary washstand. There is no extra
space for clothes, and all the comforts
of home are lacking. When three per-
sons are in the room at once, it is
