HOPE TO CONVERT BRYAN
Texas Senator Hopes to Induce the

Washington-Senator Bailey of Tex

for the present his intention of firing
a broadside at Bryan's advocacy of
government ownership of railroads
Bailey announced a week ago that he
would give out a statement, but now
he has changed his mind His hesi-
fancy is believed to be due to the
fact that he, as well as other south
ern leaders of the party, is laboring
privately with Bryan to. get him to
side-track his views.

SAYS BRYAN Is WRONG
John Sharp Williams, Minority Leader
Of House of Representatives, Op-
pose to Government Owner
ship of Railroads

Richmond, Va-The Times-Dispatch
telegraphed John Sharp Williams, mi
nority leader in congress, at Yazoo
City, Miss, for an expression of his
views on Bryans plans for govern
ment ownership of railroads, receiv-
ing from Williams the following reply:
Il am opposed to government own
ership of railroads, irrevocably, now
and forever in theory and in prac-
tice, question concerning which Mr..
Bryan and | agree to disagree But
l see no good to be attained by my
rushing into print on the subject. We
will simply vote it down if offered as
plank of the democratic platform.
Meanwhile let us not magnify demo
cratic differences There are so many
things we are agreed upon-let us
magnify them. Rush them to the
front if we can Bryan is not in
fallible and does not pretend to be.
He is right about so many things, elo-
quently and greatly right, but abso-
lutely and altogether wrong about this
one thing especially from the stand
point of racial peace and quiet in the
south. Let us strongly regulate rail
road rates, but not operate the rail
roads"
