Bryan and LaFoIlette May
Organize New Political Party

Madison, Wis, Oct. 20.--Are. William
Jennings Bryan of Nebraska, and SEN
iator Robert M. LaFollette Of Wisconsin
in an offensive and defensive alliance;
are they planning to merge the present
democracy and large portion of the
republican party into new political
organization, or are they simply fell
low members of little mutual adj
miration society?
Discussion along this line has been
revived by the intimacy of the two men
during the Wisconsin campaign tour
of the Nebraskan this week and the
glowing tributes paid by Bryan to La
Toilette in his several badger speeches.
More than two years ago, when La
Toilette was governor OF Wisconsin. it
became known that these two men
held occasional long conversations
over the long distance telephone that
each had lively interest In the po-
liticai fortunes of the other, that they
entertained coincident views concern
Ing not only questions of public well-
fare. but also agreed and conferred
with each other regarding the most
effective measures and methods in
practical politics.
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1906-10-20

1t was then noised about that they
planned to form a new nationals politi-
cal party, to which Bryan should con-
tribute substantially the present DEM
ocracy and La Toilette would carry
large enough part Of the republican
vote to make uD an organization of
controlling strength in the nation. Just
where the presidential office was pro-
posed to go was not settled in the ru-
more on this subject.
Wednesday Mr. Bryan came into
Wisconsin to speak for the election of
Gubernatorial Nominee Aylard and the
other democrats running for state Of
fees and for congress.
Although Mr. Bryan got mis- trained
and was reported lost at GAINESVILLE in
the morning, 50 that his visit to Mill
waukee was interferred with and de-
iayed, Senator LaFollette met him at
Wtaertown and came with him to
Madison. and after Bryan had lauded
the Wisconsin senator in every WIS
consin speech he made, he multiplied
the compliments that night in the
crowded university gymnasium, while
Senator La Toilette sat in the audience
The Wisconsin man seems to take
every available opportunity to even up
the exchange Of compliments.
