BAYS ONE TERM ENOUGH

When 1t came to the nomination
OF a president at the Denver con-
vention all Of the alleged opposition
to Mr.. Bryan faded away like tie
s0ow before the sun. There was no
opposition-tbat is none to speak of.
Judge Gray was nominated and
received 50 1.2 votes. Governor
johnson was nominated and on the
roll call received 48 votes-not
enough to be considered In the run
ming, but sufficient. however, to
remove any suspicion from johnson
that he could be characterized as a
quitter and thus not place him in
bad repute for the campaign Of 1912.
at which time 1t is supposed that
the Minnesota governor will again
be a candidate. starting in Sufficient
time as not to be handicapped.
On receiving the information that
he had received the nomihation OF
the democratic national convention
Cor president, Mr.. Bryan made the
following Statements.
"The presidency is the highest
official position In the world and no
one occupying 1t can afford to have
his views upon public questions
biased by personal ambition. Re-
cognizing his responsibility to God
and his obligation to his country
men, he should enter upon the dis
charge of his duties with singleness
of purpose. Believing that one can
best do this when he is not planning
for a second term, | announce now
as i have on former occasions, that
II elected, / shall lot be a candidate
for reelection.
"This Is a nomination as purely
from the people as can be, and If
elected my obligation will be as pure
IL to the people. / appreciate the
honor the more because it came not
from one person or q few persons but
from the rank and file acting freely
without compulsiOn."
There is the record on which Mr..
Bryan Is presumed to stand in the
future with reference to the
possibility OF his again becoming
= candidate for the high position.
tt may not, however, have any
more weight now than his Telegram
Of four years ago, when he said
That q man who had twice teen
defeated for the presidency should
retire from the race. Notwithstand.
ing that announcement the Nebraska
gentleman has not ceased since that
time to build up his foundation for
another nomination and which has
just eliminated at Denver. Without
the support of the eastern democrats
and without the aid Of the leading
democratic papers Of the country.
the ace that Mr.. Bryan is about to
run will be rather a lonesome one,
unless Hearst can be brought INTO
camp with his string OF papers to aid
Bryan. There is no greater hope TO-
day that Bryan can be elected than
there was eight years ago.
