CANT DICTATE"- BRYAN.

TBy TeIsgraph to The tribune. ]


Lincoln, Neb.. Nov. 21.-UEder the heading
Let the People Rule" W. J. Bryan. IN The
Commoner" tomorrow replies TO the tnnportuni-
ties OF friends that he assume the responsibility
of naming a Democratic candidate for the Presi-
dency and at the same time. in a way, ex-
plains and justiies his own receptive candidacy.
Mr. Bryan says many Of his Democratic friends
feel sure he can insure party victory by de-
clining to be a candidate and urging the nonina-
ton Of some other man. He adds:
att might be very pleasing to tie friends OF
a particular candidate to have that candidate
indorsed by Mr.. Bryan II Mr. Bryan's indorse-
ment insured a nomination. but Mr.. Bryans
Endorsement would not insure the nomination OF
the person indorsed. and 1t would not insure
his election. and it would insure one thing
namely. that Mr.. Bryan would be denounced as
a dictator not only by all who are unfriendly
but by many who are friendly"
Mr. Bryan criticises the attitude OF President
Roosevelt for indicating a preference for Secre-
tary Taft. and in conclusion says such a coursa
as IS proposed. to him by his correspondents Is
undemOcratic because power comes from the
people and not down from the leaders. Ths
rank and file Of the party. he says. not IN ths
mood for dictstion from himself or any ons
else.

lature, and although he forecasts several i'm
portant actions, particularly in regard to flnan-
cial legislation. he expects that the Legislature
will adjourn early in April. There will be, he
says. a desire on the part Of Senators and AS
sembymen to get away early before the prelim-
inaries of the Presidential campaign set in.
For one thing" he added. Il look for I'M
portant financial legislation, following the inves-
tigation OF the banking experts who have been
asked by Governor Hughes to look into the
matter. At the present time 1t looks as If this
would be the most important subject to be
taken up. There are others, however. OF i'm
portance throughout the state
Much, OF course. will depend on Governor
Hughes's message and the recommendations to
be contained therein. It is fair 10 presume that

lature the need Of direct primary legislation and
also ballot reform both Of which were recon-
mended in his first message. but not enacted.
a half years working of the public utilities law
may have shown some points where it can be
improved and should this be the case that point
too. doubtless will be mentioned in the Gov
ernor's message.
Two important commissions Will report. with
recommendations, and these must receive at
tention. There is the so-called Wainwright
commission. which has been looking into na-
tional guard affairs. and the Good Roads Com

gestIons 10 make"

his lineup was Mr.. Smith denied that he had
made any attempt 10 have the members declare

where Chairman Woodruff stood his candi-
dacy and added that he wasn't worrying at all
about his chances.

FEDERAL CENTRAL BANK
Senator HanSbrougk Plans to In

[From The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, Nov. Ex-senator Hansbrough OF
North Dakota. who is a member of the Finance
Committee arrived in Washington to-day and ex-
pressed himself freely and directly the subject
OF financial legislation.
Financial conditions in North Dakota are in
good shape in far as crops business etc, are
concerned said the Senator but We have suf-
1ered severely from the money stringency and the
boarding Of money by Eastern banks. Political
conditions are entirely satisfactory. North Da-
kota is as strongly Republican as ever, and Pres-
dent Roosevelt is a greater favorite than ever if
that be possible"
will the coming Congress enact financial legis-
lation promptly" he asked He replied:
I hope so. I understand that the President makes
clear cut and urgent recommendation in his mes

on ample security and taxed that 1t will add

IN fact government institution. its circulation
could well stand upon its fund, and If need
be. on its general assets In times of currency
scarcity the bank could issue increased amounts
and distribute il to the points where it most
needed, while the issue and withdrawal OF this
currency would be controlled by the Secretary of
the Treasury.
Such bank. had ii existed during the present
strngency, would have issued currency and sent it
20 the Northwest to move the crops. With these
arriving al the seaboard European money would
have flowed in TO relieve the scarcity in the East,
and the shortage would have passed without caus-
ing the grave Inconvenience it has occasioned.
Being in the Middle West the directors OF this
federal central bank would keep in close touch
with the conditions and resources in that section,
where the vast exporrabe wealth of the country is
produced They could foresee emergencies which
likely TO occur when have large high
priced crops TO move and could keep sufficiently
close TO unusual situations TO deal with them
effectively.
