Must Harmonize Factions in the
East.
Washington, Aug. 12.-The re.
turn to this country of William j.
Bryan in a little less than three
weeks will be the signal for much
writing and more talk about the
future of the Democratic party.
Assuming that he will be the next
nominee of the Democratic party,
interest from the time he sets foot
on American soil, after an absence
of nine months. until he is made
the party's standard bearer for the
third time, will largely center
around his efforts to reunite the
Democratic party, if he makes any
such efforts. 1t is foregone con-
clusion that he can not be elected
President unless he can reunlte his
party. Can he do it! will be the
question that will interest students
of national politics. When he lands
in New York he will find that the
outlook presents some encourag-
ing features, but on the whole is
not reassuring. Plenty of work for
the party repairer will be found.
The Democrats Of some seven or
eight States have declared for him
in 1908, and it is assumed that the
Democrats of other States will do
likewise before the summer ends.
but there is still a large and infu-
ential wing of the party to be
heard from. What may be termed
the Grover Cleveland Democrats
have so far accepted the Bryan
business in silence. 1t is true that
here and there a member of the
party who refused to accept what
was known as Organism" in 1896
and in 1900, has indicated that he
is now willing to follow the Ne.
braskan, but the great body of the
So called Cleveland Democrats are
simply watching and waiting. Per-
haps if all these conservative Dem |
ocrats we're assembled at one point |
in the country they would not
make very impressive showing, |
but wherever they are found they
are influential in business and in
politics, and while they probably
would not count for much in the
national convention, they must be
with in an election.
The South shows disposition
to accept Mr.. Bryan, and will, of
course, roll up its usual number
Of electoral votes if the Nebraskan
Is nominated. So, in the final an
alysis, the question will be wheth.
'r Bryan can reunite his party in
he North, in those Northern
States which he must carry if he
ropes to be elected President.
In 1896, Connecticut, Rhode Is /
and and all the other North At
antic States did their best to make
t unanimous against him. 1t does !
lot make much difference what s
ONE of these States think of him,
'ut it does make a great deal of
Inference about what Maryland,
Jew Jersey and New York think.
Jnless we make some new poIiti-
al history in this country, Bryan '
annot be elected President with. il
ut the electoral votes of New b
,ork and at least of the other two d
tates. Hence 1T will be interest a
