to Offset the effect Of the Cooper Union
meeting. says that Bryan's advocacy OF
Parker is not genuine and asks us
readers Ito take what Bryan may say
with an abundance of grains OF salt.

chuded that their claim to Omnipotence
ID little too broad. They now say
as long as the Parker democrats or the
republican party is in power the gold
standard is irrevocable." The assertion
OF Roosevelt or Parker that II IS If

New York Associated Press dis
patch says: THE unusual activity of
populists In this state Is also causing

faction are ready TO support Watson.
