REPUBLICANS Use
WATSON s SPEECH

NEW YORK, Aug, S1.-Consider-
able interest has been aroused
among the politicians of all parties
by the report that the Republican
headquarters here are sending out
thousands of copies of Thomas e.
Watsons speech of acceptance of the
Populist nomination for the presi-
dency in the hope of estranging the
votes of the Bryan Democrats from
the national Democratic ticket.
Many Republicans and Democrats,
too, do not hesitate to say that Wat
sons speech is the strongest yet
made against the Democratic ticket,
and that it will do the Republicans
more good than any, not excepting
