tellectual capacity coupled with strong
partisan bias limits the effectiveness
of Roosevelt's efforts to that of agi-
tation and education along the lines
laid down by Bryan, and his failures
tend to emphasize in the public mind
the sturdy and unyielding qualities af
the great democratic leader. Hence,
Roosevelt is only breaking ground and
preparing the way for Bryan.
The names of the two were coupled
in connection with every word and
deed that brought TO Roosevelt popu-
larity, and the weakness he exhibited
in falling victim to the Aldrich, ALI
son buncO game that cheated him out
OF great victory after the battle aid
been fought and won, caused his dis
appointed and sorrowing admirers to
long for a Bryan to WELD the helm of
state. Roosevelt achieved exceedingly
great popularity along lines laid down
by Bryan. His advocacy of demo
cratic principles has popularized them,
and his failures have broadened and
fastened the popular demand for
Bryan. To Theodore Roosevelt more
than to any other man except Bryan
himself is the Bryan revival that is
sweeping over the land at this time
due.

THE BRYAN REVIVAL

Significant symptoms of returning
moral and physical health, nationally,
are furnished in the action of the
four state conventions that recently
declared for the denomination of Bry-
an for the presidency of 1908. The
Inmistakable ground-swell of opinion
that is thus early recording itself on
the presidential question is significant
and reassuring.
The continuing prosperity and the
elimination, for the time being, of the
perplexing money question have an
abled the people to recover their
mental and moral equilibrium sufic-
iently to discover that the govern
ment had fallen under the control of
an oligarchy of trust-magnates who
in large measure had filled the po-
sitions of responsibility and power
with their agents and retainers. The
revolt Of the voters in the democratic
party against President Cleveland and
the party leaders in 1896 that culmin-
ating in the adoption of the Chicago
platform and the nomination of Bry-
an for the presidency, was a revolt
against the usurpation of the powers
of government by the confederate
banks, railroads and industrial mo.
nopolies.
The Chicago platform pledged the
democratic party to restore the gov
eminent to the people, and the party
candidate represented the demands OF
the people with fidelity, brilliancy
and heroism that challenged the ad
miration of friends and foes alike. The
campaign of 1896 will ever remain
memorable as the fiercest fought pc
lit;cal battle in our history and one
in which the issues were joined b!
the democrats without any evasion
and the cause of the people was cham
pioned by a leader whose intrepidit.
challenged the admiration of mankind
The Chicago platform was right
And Bryan, the leader in the contest
was the impersonation of the plat
form. and as sincere and guileless a
he was brilliant and brave. Durin

BRYAN AND HEARST

No sincere democrat need have the
least misgivings over any imaginary
or remotely prospective clash between
the two greatest and most deserving
democrats of this generation-Wil-
liam ]. Bryan and William R. Hearst.
That New York city and state con-
tain a majority of genuine democrats
there is every reason for believing,
but that the party in the state bearing
the leadership of machine that is
anything but democratic there can be
no reason to doubt. That there is a
clash between the old democratic ma
chine leaders in New York and Will
liam R. Hearst is the most natural
thing in the world. Hearst is a
democrat of the Bryan school. He
fights against privilege and plumber
in all forms and is uncompromising.
In so doing he attacks the source
of the incomes of those who dominate
the democratic as we'll as the repub-
lican party in both the city and the
state of New York. Platte and De-
Pew are United States senators by
virtue of support of the interests that
control the machinery and direct the
policies of the two great parties in
the Empire state.
Under the leadership. of Hearst it
seems that a great Independent po-
litical movement is spreading over the
state, and is threatening to disable
the democratic machine by attracting
to it's fold the great body of democratic
voters in the state. This new organ
ization is being built out of the raw
material of the democratic party, that
which has had no representation or
voice through the old organization
controlled by Hill, Murphy, Belmont,
Ryan & Co. 1t is announced that the
new organization will nominate Hon.
William R. Hearst for governor on
July 4th next.
Now, who are the men in New
York that are flocling under the
banner of Mr. Hearst? Are they the
men who supported Bryan, or are they
the democrats that swelled Mckinley
| plurality above 100000 in 1896 and to
!. $4,000 in 1900? There is no room

he went he expounded the doctrine
of genuine democracy and warned his
theories and policies of government
then in practice. The year 1900 found
conditions generally changed and the
active interest of the masses of the
party voters somewhat relaxed, re-
sulting in the time serving element
OF the party again forging to the
| front in considerable numbers. The
national convention of 1900 dared not
turn down the party tribune for a
denomination, but many of the prom
| inent party leaders in the convention
exhausted their powers in the at.
tempt to wiring from Bryan ccnces-
sions in the platform of reactionary
character in order that they might
again, in good standing, return to the
flesh pots of Egypt." But Mr.. Bryan's
answer to all such entreaties, and
| his ultimatum to the party leaders
was that if the platform is changed
you must look for another candidate
Here again the confidence of the peo-
pie in Mr.. Bryan was justified and
then it was that the corporation,
henchmen and timeservers of the
party discovered that in Mr.. Bryan
there was no hope for them
Had Mr.. Bryan yielded to the bland
ishments of the party leaders in 1900
he would have forfeited the confidence
Of the people and have blotted out his
own political future. But standing
steadfast and immovable as the rocks
Of Gibraltar, he became the leader,
not alone Of the democratic party,
but of the American people. His
steadfastness to principle singled him
out as the man to whom the nation
would turn when the political pendu-
lum would start on it's backward
swing, and his principles become in
the ascendancy the man to whom the
American people would elect to the
presidency when the hour of their de-
lirium was over.
Mr.. Bryan, supporting the demo
cratic platform and incidentally it's
candidates in 1904, showed himself
still loyal to the people and did not
attempt to claim more for the can
didate than there was warrant for,
and in his campaign speeches did
even-handed justice to the contesting
candidates.
President Roosevelt, who is mix.
ture of inconsistencies, possessing
many good and some bad traits, has
given the country a mixed admins
, tration, which upon the whole has
been highly educational to the people
, During his first term he did just
{ enough that was good to lead the PEG
! pie to believe that if given another
term in his own right he would seek
} immortal fame by restoring the gov
eminent to the people.
Under this belief, the democracy
of Theodore Roosevelt proved to be

Murderers in the Garden of Death.

Juan Aldige, the proprietor OF a gamb-
ling den at Teushor, Spain, and Manuel
Mopoz, his assistant, were executed at
Seville on Friday on six charges of MUIR
der. Aldge enticed innumerable trav-
eers to his house, which stood in an isO-
lated place, and 6eeced them by cheating
at cards. The victims who protested
against his play, or otherwise showed
that they had discovered his trickery,
we're killed by Aldige with hammer and
their bodies buried in his garden. The
condemned men shocked even the jailers
bv their calousness, and when on the
scalFold laughed and joke1 with each
