BRYAN TO URGE
AN OPEN FIGHT

hew Bryan policy. or course Il is
not possible To say what Mr. Bryan
Will touch in his New York speech.
since. one may say confidently. not
one line OF this speech has been pre-
pared. IL may be that he Will not ap-
proach politics. preferring To devote
himself to an expression of thanks
FOR the tremendous welcome that he
VIII receive: but one knowing MIR.
Bryan feels sure that he will at least
touch some OF the great subjects next
the public heart.
Mr.. Bryan's new policy whether
he outlines IL in his speech or not.
VIII be one OF the most direct hon
esty. III he should express himself
IN favor OF the public ownership.
II will be for the ownership OF GER
tain great utilities In such way as
TO give the Federal Government
part control and the State Govern
ment part, a plan eminenaly Demo
cratic. IL he should again take up
the question OF an income tax he
viii bring to the American people
the best that he has fonnd i'm Eng
land on the subject.
In short he viii, I'm course OF his
stay in America, previous to depart
ing for Australia, try to convey To
his friends and the public clear idea
OF the best he has observed In gov
pointing out at the same time. the
evils of such bad phases as he has
encountered
He will insist on an open fight on
all questions; he will declare with
greater emphasis than ever against
the iniquities OF the trust systems
he Will tell his friends in whatever
part OF the country that his leader
ship must mean clean local leader
ship. More than once / have heard
Mr.. Bryan say. In all earnestness.
that he does not care to be compIi-
mented by the support of men who
achieve political eminence by fraud
I Mr.. Bryan has founl time In his
travels TO meet most OF the world rs
public men. TO make several speech
es and deliver good many lectures
to missions in the far East and to
write a book, which is soon to leave
the press He has also managed to
edit a great work for some OF the
big London New York publishing
buses.
There has never been good reason
for doubling Mr.. Bryan's conserva-
tism. Even admitting that at one
time or another, he may have ad-
vanced opinions that were open TO
controversy. he has always been pos
sessed of an Unborn tendency towards
seeking the covers OF canton.
u has been remarked I'm Paris and

not in the wide circle OF Mr.. Bryan's
