so manifest that even he must see and
recognize it.
No man could be more unwilling
than Mr.. Bryan TO admit that his day
has passed, that his control OF the
party is broken. But the truth has
been forced upon him, as in state after
state and in one congressional dis
tricG after another democratic con-
ventions have deliberately excluded
from their platform all mention OF
him and his Kansas City principles
While there was still possibility
that Mr.. Bryan might continue to be
the democratic leader, the statement
OF his personal resolve not to accept
another nomination would have been
of no consequence. He might have
changed his E1ind. The party viii not

it might change It's mind, he would

President Roosevelt.



The extent and spontnneity Of the
Endorsement of the President are un-
precedenfed in the history of the
country. Not only have Kansas, In
diana. Nebraska, Maine, Vermont,
Missouri, Ohio and Minnesota APP
proved OF his Cuban policy, but Kan
sas, Pennsylvania, Missouri and Min
uesota have strongly recon nlended
him for the next republican nominee
for President. The Ian
guage OF the resolutions shows that
the President has 8 strong hold upon
the hearts Of the people.
They speak of his fidelity, his pa
triotic ideals, his high sense OF hoaor,
his courageous manhood, his purity
and devotion to the interest OF the
country, and all this shows that the
people know him and trust him. In
deed. their admiration takes on a GER
tain good humored familiarity. At
railroad stations they shout for
ssTeddy'', and he does not resent il,
though never for moment relaxing
the dignity that properly pertains TO
his exalted station.
They know him as college man,
ranehmau, hunter, rough rider, pop
ular orator and interesting author,
but they alec recognize his most ell
Gent seryiee as civil service CON-
missioner, police reformer in the
great city OF New York, assistant
secretary Of the navy, valiant soldier
in Cuba and successful governor oil
the Empire state.
He il no novice, and vet he il so
young that a southern admirer spoke
of him a. ''the big boy". Thus he is a
rare combination OF hearty vitality
and studiOusness, familiarity and
dignity, impulsiyeness and prudence,
courage and caution, and under the
ripening effects of years and great
experience, he is constantly becom-
ing admirably equipped for his high
responsibilities.
Even If be we're not President, and
month after month becoming more
and more worthy of reelection, his
brilliant career and his strong quail
tiles would make him one of the few
men -eminently qualified for the
