VILE programme, and Mr. Bryan made a short
address He introduced by William Cullen
Bryant. the president of the club.
This is William Jennings Bryan" Mr.. Bryant
said He is a newspaper man now. and we have
asked him TO tell how much easier il is to run
for President than to get paying advertisements
for a Daper."
Mr.. Bryan spoke for the greater part in humorous
vein He began by saying that he had not gone
into newspaper work entirely of his free will.
but had been led into il by circumstances after
becoming convinced that his oratory suff-
ciently clear 20 convince majority of the people
that his ideas were good. Then he told as against

or more responsible.
Speaking OF the adverse criticism to which men
in politics are subject Mr. Bryan said he saw
no reason why the men should complain. 1T is
better he added that any number OF men should
suffer from free press than that the world should
suffer the loss OF the truth that comes from the
free press. No government should object free
speech That is how its errors are pointed out.
II IL is government that objects to free speech IL
is a government that needs it.
Referring to the work OF the editor, Mr.. Bryan
said that the who serves his country with
heart and brain is more of patriot than he who
fights in battle The true patriot he continued.
IFS the who gives TO his country what his
country wants The more men who give their
hearts and brains to the country. the fewer will
have 10 give their bodies. The best service man
render his country or his party when he sees
IL going wrong Is to say so. and to chastise IL
