WHY BRYAN
SUPPORTS HIN.
tFrom The n Y. Malll


Bryan Is supporting Parker In
this campaign. We have been at some
pains 10 collect tho scattered refer.
ences he has made 70 him In tho last
ave months. They are presented be-
low as a sort OF Democratic campaign
document;
II would mean hat those who at
tempted to reach the white House, II
Parker we're elected, would have to
wade through peanut shells knee deep.
The Albany platform ought TO pre-
vent Parker's nomination. unless the
Democrats decide to attempt a conf
dence game on the public.
Is this adopting OF platforms a sort
Of variety show. with a change OF act
for each campaign?
My objection to Judge Parker is that
he goes before the country on a cow
ardly and s~traddllng platform that can
only appeal to towards and straddlers.
I object TO loaded dice.
II that tthe Albany platform
anything. e means that the Democrats
Of New York State are against the
merger decision and in favor Of the
minority decision. II Mr.. Parker
means that, he means that as Presi.
dent Of the United States he can ap.
point one judge and reverse that de.
eision.
We are opposed TO the b%urglarious
methods which are now being employ
ed to foist upon the party a speeches.
candidate and a meaningless platform
The influences back OF the Parker
candidacy are so intimately associated
with trusts and great corporations
that the Democratic party could not
appeal TO the masses.
a man who is weak enough to put
his candidacy in their CHir's and Bel
mont's) hands before the convention
would not be strong enough to resist
their influence after election, II he
we're BY any possibility successful
With such q candidate the battle
would begin with a foot race and
end with q rout
II would have been manlier II Judge
Parker had stated his position before
this convention met. Il would have
been more manly II he had. stated his
position while this convention was IN
session.
The ~plutocrauc element for the
time being Is IN control OF the Demo
cratic party.
The nomination OF Judge Parker was
virtually nulliGes the antitrust plank
The nomination OF Judge Parker avs
secured by crooked and i~ndefenslble
methods II was a plain and delIb

II he had sent 70 the Albany con
vention the telegram he sent 70 the

had no possible chance for the nomina
ton.
He and his managers adrottiy and
