BRYAN AND THE TARIFF.
The Peerless Candidate QuaIIaed -
Lead Free Trade Cohorts.

The Peerless Candidate ouaIIaed ts
Lead Free Trade Cohorts.
The enthusiasm with which the Dem
Ocratic leaders are hailing the coming
OF Mr.. Bryan from his tour through
foreign parts and the fact that a num-
Der OF state delegations in various
parts OF the country have given In
dorsement to the proposition for max
ing Mr.. Bryan the nominee OF the Dem
Ocratic party in 1908 convince most OF
the political observers here that unless
something unforeseen happens Mr..
Bryan will be the Democratic nominee
for the presidency, practically without
opposition. 1t also seems to be the
opinion that Mr.. Bryan hopes to unite
the various wings Of the Democratic
party on a middle ground of compara-
tive conservatism, abandoning all refer
ences to the money question and max
ing the campaign solely upon the issue
Of the tariff and opposition to corpora
tions.
Whatever may be said about the un-
soundness of Mr.. Bryan's economic
opinions generally and regardless Of
the views now entertained by many
people throughout the country respect
ing the conservatism of Mr.. Bryan
compared with THE striking illustrations
the country has had within the past
two or three years OF want Of con-
servatism in high places, the country
will not forget that William ]. Bryan
Is and always has been a radical op-
ponent of the protective tariff and per-
sistent in his demands for free trade.
1t will not be forgotten that Mr.. Bryan
was Il member of the committee on
ways and means of the house of rep
resentatives In 1894 and had con-
spicuOus part in the work Of that COM
mittee In framing the iniquitOus Wilson
tariff law. 1t will not be forgotten
that so radical was the Wilson bill
when it left the committee of which
Mr.. Bryan was a conspicuous member
that 1t required the efforts Of Senator
German and other Democrats in the
senate to save it from being the most
obnoxious free trade bill ever present
ell in congress. Even after the senate
Democrats had materially modified the
bill the measure when 1t became law
was SO destructive Of American inter-
ests and 80 liberal in its encourage
ment of foreign competition that i'm
ported commodities flooded the markets
of the United States, while the mills
and factories throughout this country
stood idle and American workingmen
dined at soup houses In the leading in
dustrial centers of the country.
Mr.. Bryan has record on the tariff
question that qualities him to be the
leader of the Democratic party in Il
presidential campaign on that ISSUE
He may not be radical at this time on
the subject Of free silver, but the most
ardent free trader In the country would
not be disappointed on account OF want
of radicallsm on the part of Mr.. Bryan
In his denunciation of the protective
system.

The Democratic idea Of restricting
immigration Is TO tear down the pro-

wages to the foreign level, so that there
will be no inducement to come to the
United States to live. But that argu-

wage earners in its bald simplicity

UNANIMOUS FOR BRYAN-WHY

New York World: Four democratic
state conventions this week have in.
dorsed Mr. Bryan for president Of the
United States. but thus far not q
single republican state convention
has Endorsed him Is this ingratltude
or stupid neglect OF political oppor.
tunity1
We read In the Washington CORE.
spondence of our republican neighbor,
the Press, that ''the prospective
nomination OF Bryan for the presiden.
cy gives the republicans food for
serious thought. It appears, accord.
ing to the correspondent, that after
the republican field is scanned only
two men are seen who would be likely
Ito make q commepdable contest"
against Bryan-President Roosevelt
himself and Senator La Toilette of
Wisconsin. Mr.. Roosevelt has empha.
ticallY declared that he would not &C.
cept another nomination, and Sena-
tor La Follette's availability is some
what dubious; so why should not the
republicans indorse Mr.. Bryan, too7
Where will they find another candi-
date who is more closely in sympathy
with Mr. Roosevelt's policies3 Mr..
Bryan advocated federal regulation of
freight rates years before Mr. Roose.
Welt dreamed Of making it an admin
istration measure. All of Mr.. Roose-
velt's trust. busting activities reveal a
close and thoughtful study Of Mr..
Bryan's eloquent speeches Mr.. Bry.
an favors federal licenses for corpora
tions, and has been one Of the stanch
supporters of Mr.. Roosevelt's second
administration. Like Mr.. Roosevelt,

restricting fortunes swollen beyond
all healthy limits. =
Some republicans might protest that
Mr.. Bryans tariff views disqualify
him for republican nomination, but
