Boone, Iowa, Nov. 15.--Colonel

Bryan to decline the nomination and
to quit his dog in the manger' atti-
had it in his power to demand the
leadership Of the Democratic party in
1908, or defeat any other candidate
by knitting him as he did Parker.
Bryan's acceptance was no more than
he had expected however, greatly as
he regretted the action, because he
thought Bryan could no longer create
enthusiasm as he had been before the
people too many times.
Asked as to the assertion often
made that the next president would
