 l Mir Bryan spoke for an hour and I twenty minutes and was frequently in- 1 terrupted by applause The only dis cordant note sounded during the even | ing was when MT.

Mir. Bryan quickly said: Nv friends, I have no objection to any man expressing himself in favor of social | ism because the Socialist, as a rule. Is an honest man. He is seeking what he | believes to be a benefit with argument and not with abuse. I deny that the trust Is an instituaion necessary for economic purposes. I deny that 1t Is an economic institution at all. It is not economical; 1t is political; It rests not on natural laws, but on handmade laws"
