At the outset of his speech Mr..

Union to declare through its Delegates

nomination in 1908.
1t was not difficult, he SAID, TO loca'e
the original Bryan man.
He promised that in any future cam
paigns the people of this state coui9
always call upon him. Mr.. Bryan salu
he was doubtful in coming south II ne
was using his time to the best advan-
tage, and added that his coming was
made still less necessary from the 1act

secretary Shaw, he said, had tried to
palm off in the state some second manu-
clothing he could not get rid of IN
Iowa. He had brought speech whlch
had been rejected in his own state.
He declared that Secretary Shaw Is
the high priest of the stand-patters,
that he goes beyond every other Re
publican in thinking that the Repuon-
can party has done everything neces-
sary.
Secretary Shaw" he said, has not
a word in favor of any modihcatlon Oh
the tariff schedule. Conspicuous Re-
publicans are demanding 1t, and even
In
he saw something might be done to
extend our trade"
Democratic Plank
On the question of Democratic planks
advocated by Republicans, Mr.. Bryan
said that whenever a Republican
speaks of anything with praise and
rejoicing he is speaking of something
done in accordance with the Demo-
cratic doctrine. When he apologies
he is talking about something purely
Democratic doctrine. Everything the
Republicans say on the tariff, he added
is in the way of apology.
Speaking of President Roosevelt as
warrior, Mr.. Bryan said that two years
ago Governor Black, in nominating the
president. delivered an eulogy on war.
saying the country needed man OF
blood and iron.
'At the St. Louis convention" said
Mr.. Bryan, II quoted this and said 1t
was a challenge to Christian ciViliza-
tion. Now, it is not strange that with
in two years the man who was then
called the god of war; had won his
greatest victory and laid the founda-
tion for his greatest glory as maker
of peace between Russia and Japan"
Coming to the question Of trusts, Mr..
Bryan said that you don't enjoin
horse thieves, but put them in the peni-
tentiary We say treat the rich and
poor alike. Talk about anarchists-the
Republican party has made more an
archists in this country by discriminate
ing in the punishment of the rich and
the poor than were ever made by all
the speeches on anarchy put to-
gether"
Mr.. Bryan said that the present rate
bill could not nave been passed with
out the help of the Democrats and
that the great Democrat Tillman, was
put in charge of 1t, although he be-
lieVed they gave it to Tillman because
they thought it would make Mr.. Roose-

as it would have been II they had let
other Democrats amend it, and 1t was
better than il would have been If they
had not let some Democrats amend It,
Mr.. Bryan delivered a ten minutes
