comes my duty TO set aside special
day of thanksgiving and praise to the

so great that it should arouse
in us no spirit of reckless pride. and

a sober sense of our many blessings

THE BRYAN BOOM.

In response to request for an
expression of his opinion concern
ing w. j. Bryan's sudden leap in
to popularity and the movement
that is booming him for the Pres
idency, Congressman John Sharp
Williams of Mississippi, minority
leader in the House, has made
public the following statement:
"You ask me to explain the
movement back to Bryan. do
not think it is a movement back.
There has never been a moment
from 1896 down to now, that a ma
jority of the Democratic party
would not have nominated Mr..
Bryan for the Presidency, except
for the conviction upon their part
that he would be defeated.
"They looked about for other
nominees merely because they
thought he could not win and pos
sibly others could. Our last expe-
rience shows that although Bryan
might lose again, almost anybody
else we could select would be no
stronger, and possibly somewhat
weaker.
Bryan has his faults, of course.
All of us have. / think he some
times clings to an idea after all
hope of giving to the idea pract-
ical consumma alton has ceased.
But he possesses great fundamen-
tai virtues. He is honest, not only
in act, but in speech, and more
than that, in thought. The man
is sincere.
eff you knew national politics
as we'll as [ do, you would know
that there are few of them who are
always and altogether sincere.
Bryan has firm grasp upon
the fundamental principles enum-
Grated by the apostle of American
Democracy. Equal opportunities
and equal burdens in SO far as the
law has anything to do with max
ingopportunities or imposing bur-
dens at all, special law-given or
law-permitted privileges for none.
A man who has fundamental ideas
firmly seated at the center of his
thoughtand feeling can be forgiv-
en- some vagaries. In the long run
when not right temporarily, he
will swing right.
