o Vice President Fairbanks for his hes
itation about expressing his opinion Oh
any of the live subjects of the
present day political discussion
and says that the old DAYS of
gum shoe craftsmanship are
over; that after Roosevelt, and
Bryan, with their frank. unreserved
daring style Of party leadership. the
REORGANIZATION of the past can not
be INDUCED in with Success.
There is more than a possibility that
a political leader will say too much
for his party and too much for him
self We remember that less than a
year ago the frank, unreserved and
daring style" of Mr. BRYAN got him
into a great deal of trouble. In the
latter part of August he signal.zed his
return from Europe by a declaration
in favor of the government ownership
% railroads. Other eminent states
men only a little less RESERVED. frank
and daring" than Mr.. Bryan were edg-
ing toward that position and doubtless
but for the painful experience of Mr..
Bryan they would shortly have taken
it. But the storm evoked by Mr.. Bry-
an scattered the government owner
ship statesmen and sent AR Bryan to
cover whence he issued an explana-
ton or rather a statement that no man
in his vast audience except himself
knew what he was talking about, just
what he meant And by the way he
has not yet made himself quite clear.
The trouble with az "unreserved~
statesmen is that the do not weigh
their words; they do not think as
much as they talk; they neglect TO
weigh conditions and they see things
only in the light of al uncertain pres
ent glare which will presently be re-
placed by a clear steady burning
flame.
Lincoln during his first campaign
for the presidency was denounced by

wisdom was mistaken by them for
cowardice.
