 Here are four positions taken by him which are undemocratic, and l may add that the Republican leaders have supported him quite enthusias' tically in all that was undemocratic and have opposed him quite persist ently where he was Democratic. l have bean glad to commend the presi- dent where I could and have criticised him where it was necessary. It would be unfair to him and unfair to the Democratic party to call him a Demo- crat. He is Democratic in spots, and while the spots arc not as large as they ought to be or as numerous as l might wish them a Democratic spot looks beautiful to me no matter upon whom I see it."
 Jefferson Versus Hamilton.
 MT. Bryan insisted that the Demo- cratic party looked at government from the Jeffersonian point of view while Republican leaders were more Hamiltonian and leaned toward cen tralization He next presented the Democratic and aristocratic view of society, saying that the Democrat re- gards society as constructed from the bottom, while the aristocrat thinks II is constructed from the top.
 "The Democrat" said MT. Bryan, "believes that if you will only legis' late so that the people will be prosper ous their prosperity will be shared by the smaller classes that rest upon the people. The aristocrat believes that if you will only legislate to make the we'll to do prosperous their prosperity will leak through on those below. You will find that the Democrat looks at public questions from the standpoint of the masses and asks what will be best for the people as whole, while the Republican leaders eulogize the captains of industry and regard the employer as a sort of trustee whom the government should give all that is intended for the employees.
 Time Ripe For Democrats.
 "rhe difference in the point of view will explain the difference in the rem. edies proposed to relieve the present financial stringency. It came from speculation in Wall street, and the Re. publican leaders have so tied the coun' try to Wall street that S0y000,000 of people must shiver when the Wall street speculators get cold. The Re- publican remedies will provide that the high financiers shall be well paid for acting as guardian, while Demo. cratic remedies look to the protection of the depOsitors and the business of the country.
 "The time is ripe for a Democratic appeal to the Democratic sentiment of the country. There is no doubt that q large majority of the people take the Democratic rather than the aristocrat. ic view of government and of society. All that we have to do Is to convince those who are really democratic fin sentiment that the Democratic party can be trusted to be democratic if in, trusted with power. I believe that in the coming congress our Democratic senators and representatives will prove themselves equal to the task imposed upon them and demonstrate the fidelity of the party to Democratic principles. Then with a united party we can face a divided opposition and enter the campaign with the assurance of a vic tory"
 Daniel Lectures Bryan.
 Senator Daniel of Virginia, who was temporary chairman of the Chicago convention of 1896. told Mir. Bryan fin tSe crowded lobby of the Willard hotel that it was time he ceased considering himself better than his party, that 1t was time he ceased dictating to the party and that it was time he ceased taking his cue from the Independence League. NIT. Bryan was not only
