and with a radicalism as fearless as
the peoples rights demanded, he has
gone slowly, steadily, discreetly and
yet definitely toward the dethrone-

were robbing the government. He is

Radical Suggestion of Georgian at
Banquet Given in Honor of the

Chattanooga, Tenn, April 11.-at
honor of William Jennings Bryan,
John Temple Graves, editor Of the
Atlanta Georgian and News, delivered
an address in which he asked Mr..
Bryan to nominate Roosevelt for a
unanimous third term in which to
perfect reforms which he alone can
carry to success. Mr.. Graves said:

"Twicc he has fought his good

j. Bryan upon it's shoulders to the
