BTyan'S Statement
He Will Support the Nominee Of
the Party.

Lincoln, Neb., July II. w j..
Bryan today gave out the following
statement:
II shall vote for Parker and
Davis, the nominees of the demo
cratic convention and shall do 50
for the following reasons:
First. Because the democratic
ticket stands for opposition to i'm
perialism, while the republican
ticket stands for an imperialistic
policy. On this question, which
was the paramount issue in 1000
and which mus remain an import
ant issue so long as an attempt is
made to hold colonies under the
American flag on this issue the
convention was unanimous, the
platform imphatic, and | have 10
doubt that the candidate will carry
out the platform.
Second. Mr.. Roosevelt is in
jecting the race issue into Ameri-
can politics and this issue, if ii be-
comes national, will make it possi-
bic TO consider economic questions
and demand solution. The election
of the democratic ticket will put a
quietus upon this attempt and per
nit the race question to work it.
self out without the bitterness
which Mr.. Roosevelts conduct has
engendered
Third. Mr.. Roosevelt stands
for the spirit of war His friends
present him as a man Of blood and
iron He believes in strenousness
and inculcates a love for war-like
things. The democratic ticket
stands for peace, for reason and for
arbitration rather than for force,
conquest, bluster.
Fourth. The democratic plat
form declares in favor Of the reduc-
ton of the standing army. and as
this plank was unanimously adopt
ed there isreason to believe that a
democratic statement on this ques-
tion is useless"
In the latter part of hisstatement
Mr.. Bryan criticises the action Of
the conservatives and says little
hope from existing economic con
dition is to be expected under
Parker.
