eight years ago." he said, 81 was
chosen the standard bearer of the
Democratic party; four years ago my
commission was renewed; tonight /
come here to return that commission.
Some of you may dispute whether l
fought good fight; some of you may
dispute whether I have finished my
course; but none OF you can deny that
l have kept the faith"
All through his speech shone the
spirit OF the old Wittenberger-God help
me 1 can not do otherwise. And deep
in the hearts of the listening thous-
ands stirred the sentiment, that, how
ever skillful might be the scheming
and Vaccinations OF the great politi-
clans there assembled with their eyes
fixed solely upon possible victory,
there was something which that pale
faced, determined man before them,
stood for that was infinitely above the
clever plans and the shrewd moves of
the political game4
Upon this occasion Bryan was not
addressing his friends alone. Among
his hearers were many influential
members of his own party who had
been his bitterest enemies. But none
Of those who we're SO intently listening
to him, whether friend or foe, doubted
for an instant the absolute sincerity
of the man.
l believe this will prove to be one of
the highwater marks of Bryan's career.
l doubt if ever under similar circum-
stances, an orator has held an audi
ence in more complete control.
The contention of the Herald
that Mr.. Bryan is dangerous man is
we'll taken. He is dangerous man.
There is not a powerful trust in all
the land, engaged in the illegal con-
troll of trade that does not believe
Bryan to be dangerous. There is not
beneficiary of special privileges,
using advantages derived from the
people to increase the burdens placed
upon the people, that does not believe
that Bryan is dangerous man. There
is not a brigand occupied in plumber
ing the public, from the thief who
steals the timber of the state to the
great CRATER who systematically taps
the national treasury, that does not
believe Bryan to be dangerous. Those
who believe that the gates of oppor-
tunity are not to be kept open to man
kind, that few are born to ride and
the many to be ridden, that equal
rights to all so far as government shall
come to the people, is destined to re-
main an unrealized dream, all those
believe Bryan to be dangerous.
Then, too, see the company Bryan
keeps. Washington, Franklin, the
Adamses, were very dangerous men.
And Thomas Jefferson, the witchery
of whose pen made tyrants tremble,
was the very quintessence of danger.
Tolstoy has been for years the most
dangerous man in Russia. Indeed
anyone who advocates the ways OF
peace in a world which is given to war,
is apt to be dangerous man.
Whatever the future has in store for
Mr.. Bryan, the future will decide. 1
believe, however, that he will always
retain the enviable position he has
already secured-that of great Amer
lean.
