harm come to them on his account.
He wanted a result in Iowa that would
be argumentatively good for his side
of democratic politics. Therefore he
sought opportunity to come into the
state to help. He was even not re-
strained by the GOODNESS of the demo.
cratic candidate for governor and the
utter inability of the democratic state
committee to contribute to the sue.
cess of his meetings.
There is no comfort for Mr.. Bryan
in the Iowa result 1t could hardly be
worse for the Kansas City platform
and Mr.. Bryan. The interests of the
Nebraskan were not at all regarded.
The republican victory exceeds the
most sanguine forecasts of the repub.
lican managers.
The democrats of Iowa, relatively,
did not do as well as the democrats
of Ohio, where in state convention
they refused to mention the last ma
tional platform of their party, or Mr..
Bryan, their candidate for the presi.
dency.
The Tammany tiger, whose fur Mr..
Bryan stroked last year with gentle
hand and cooling voice, has been run
out of Greater New York.
The news from Maryland is now in
