BILLY BRYAN TALKS AGAIN.

Special to The Sentinel.
New York. July 13.-The Times
prints the following cablegram from
its correspondent at London:
rs it true" | asked Mr. Bryan
yesterday, that President Roose-
welt caught you in swimming and
stole your clothes" Over in AmerI-
ca they say that is what has happen
ed"
He did not get all my clothes. -
Mr.. Bryan laughingly replied, and
quickly added:
II doubt whether what he did get
fit him very we'll"
Mr.. Bryan went on: "It is hard.
uphill work, for Mr.. Roosevelt to
meke his administration respond to
the country's evident demand for re-
forms. for the country gave him no
mandate. The platform on which he
was elected does not declare that our
laws and our government should aim
at the welfare of the whole people.
but IL a Democratic president is
chosen in 1908 he will undoubted-
ly represent party committed to
this reform idea and will be in quite
different situation.
There is no doubt about the peo-
pies wish in this respect. Views
that were considered revolutionary
few years ago are now accepted as
sane and necessary. A change has
come over the country. An Ameri-
can asked me today: Mr.. Bryan how
do you explain the change that has
come over some of our rich men in
respect to their attitude toward Dem
ocratic principles?' I replied The
explanation is very easy. People who
live in a valley watch the dome above
them. and if a flood is threatened
they know that the higher the eleva-
tion the greater the danger, and some
of them have made up their minds
that they cannot afford to dam public
any longer
There is another thing to be CON
remarked Mr.. Bryan after
a pause" namely, the ethical move
ment. A great many men are begin
ming to learn that there is something
in the world more valuable than |
and it has gratifed me to hear
of numbers of cases where men have |
taken a larger view of their relations |
to their fellows and of their respon- !
sibilities. This introspection is maxi l
ing some of them ashamed of the /
questionable methods which they |
have resorted to in the past"
