Bryan Will Not Say.

Why Mir Bryan will not in advance of the convention state whether he will sup port the ticket is perhaps explained in this extract, written before he was nomi- mated at Chicago: If abandonment of party Is ever justifable the voter must decide for himself when the time for abandonment arrives. When should he decide? The proper time, If not the only time. is after the party has adopted it's platform and named It's candidates. If he tries through his party organization to save his country and fails, must he then take hand in it's destruction? If a great question arises, must he assume that his party will go wrong and there fore leave 1t before he acts. or should he try to hold his party to the right courseg
 In another place MT. Bryan says: "The voter may abandon his party permanent ly either when he himseir changes his position upon paramount question, or when his party changes It's position. The strength of party organization is found in the fact that men do not like to re- pudate nominee or leave their party for light and trival causes; in fact the tendency to vote a straight ticket is so great that men require the strongest of reasons for justying assertions, and yet the right to bolt or abandon Is essential unless man Is to become a mere machine and unless the party machine is to be- come omnipotent. The desire tb draw voters to the party makes the party care- full to indorse the wisest policies, aQd the fear that men may bolt is the most eff fective protection against bad nomina- tions."

His Right.

'T claim the right to hold and vim no other mans conduct or the integrity of his purpose. I yield to every senator the right of differing from me, and never make a test on him for doing so. l never make speeches proclaiming to the world that I will bolt a convention If 1 cannot get my man nominated, and threatening to break up the democratic party if the little faction to which the speaker belongs cannot control it, and then talk about the right hand of fel- lowship. Sir, the senator has placed him. self beyond the pale of democratic fel- lowship by the pronunciamento that he will not abide by the decision of the na- tional convention. l do not understand this thing of belonging to an organiza- tion, going into a convention, abiding the result if you win and bolting if you lcse. never thought that was fair dealing in any profession. If you took the winnigs when you won, l always thought you lad to pay your debts when you lost man who tells me and the world that he>goes only into conventions to abode the re- suit only in the event of their deciding in his favor has no right to talk about extending the right hand of democratic fellowship. He has a right to differ with me; he has right to bolt the Charleston conventon he has right to proclaim that he intends to do so; but he has no right to go into the conven,:on unfess he intends to abide by the result"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-07-03
To Follow Conscience.

Again MT. Bryan says: T have at all times defended the soverign rights of the citizen to follow his conscience and his judgment in political matters, and to make his party affiliations conform to his convictions.''
 Those democrats, who believe MT. Bry- an will bolt In case the. convention does not act in accordance with his wishes, largely base their opinion upon the above extracts, of which he is the author. On the other hand there are quite a few who believe that Mir. Bryan will have difficulty in abandoning his party in the light of the following question which he asks and is answered by him: "When is a man justified in abandoning his party? Obvi- ously, when he satisfies himself that some other party is a better means through which to serve his country" In a sim liar strain MT. Bryan says: Tt is not to be expected that every person will find in any platform all that he desires and nothing that he does not like. But when a citizen Is called upon to vote, he in- dorses that platform which gives him the best assurances of securing the most important things which he desires."
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-07-03
Would Support Ticket.

In the light of the last two extracts of MT, Bryan he would certainly support the democratic party, or at least could give no support to the republican party. The democratic party must certainly represent more that Mir. Bryan believes in than the republican party. If, how ever, the populists make a nomination and put out platform, it will not be surprising, in view of the extracts above quoted, if he supports the populist nomi- nee.
 In this connection. however, it is inter- esting to note the debate in the senate in the Thirty-first congress participated in by Senator stephen A. Douglas and Senator Clay of Alabama. Senator Doug las great speech on party regularity, while 1t failed to accomplish Its purpose and bolt from the Charleston conven- ton was made, thereby insuring the elec- tion of Lincoln, is a model for every democrat. An extract is as follows:

areas of the United States. Time was.
says the Winnipeg Free Press. when
the Dakotas, Minnesota and Iowa fur
mshea the Dominion with the main
puik OF Its American contingent. Last
year, however, forty-four States and
districts were represented in the off,
cal statement as to the former resi-
dence of Americans who had home
steaded in Canada. The Dakotas still
head the list, with 4,O06 entries, Min
nesota being close second with 1857,
but with the exception of Alabama and
Mississippi and Delaware every State
In the Union supplied settlers who. in
order to secure farms in the fertile
prairie country of Canada, became citi-
zens OF, and took the oath of allegiance
10, the Dominion. Last year no less
than 1854 Americans entered for
homestead lands IN Canada.
From the Gulf to the Boundary, and
from ocean to ocean, the trek to the
Dominion goes on. Not only the wheat
growers Of the central Mississippi val.
ley, but the ranchers of Texas and
New Mexico, and the cultivators of the
comparatively virgin soil Of Oklahoma,
are pouring towards the productive va
cant lands of the Canadian Northwest.
1t is no tentative, half-hearted depart
ure for an alien country that is mani
tested in this exodus; it has become al
most rush to secure possession of
land which it is feared, by those i'm
perfectly acquainted with the vast area
of Canada's vacant lands, may all be
acquired before they arrive. There is
no element of speculation or expert
ment in the migration. The settlers
have full information respecting the
soil, wealth, the farming methods, the
laws, taxation and system of govern
ment of the country to which they are
moving, and they realize that the OPP
portunities offered in Canada are in
every respect better and greater than
those they have enjoyed in the land
they are leaving.
Canada can well afford to welcome
cordially every American farmer COM
ing to the Dominion. There is no ques-
ton but that these immigrants make
the most desirable settlers obtainable
for the development of the prairie por-
ton of the Dominion. Full informa-
ton can be had from any authorized
Canadian Government Agent, whose
address will be found elsewhere.
