and healthful returns and a stalwart

and gentlemanly resort for the young

bound to lend the weight Of their
highest opinion and unceasing effort

the most important and significant
departures that has been made here in
years; and along with such other ex-

Up Against a United Democracy and

in Copap,apd

W COMMAND
Have you noticed how the republi.
can campaign management and The
republican presidential candidates
have been playing second fiddle to the
democratic committee and Mr.. Bryan
from the inception of this campaign?
Mr.. Bryan said the deposit guaranty
law would he a good thing for the
country. Mr.. TAFT said ridiculous
and preposterous. it wouldn't do at
ALL" Then he heard from Kansas,
which is just across the line from
Oklahoma, and concluded that it
might be all right to allow a guaranty
fund to be created. if the banks were
allowed TO handc Il themselves and
to use their own judgment about sub.
It, Taft didn't know that 1t was load
ed when he got to monkeying with
that bank deposit guaranty idea.
Then, remember the tremendous
amusement which the republican
newspapers and speakers got out OF
the idea of Mr.. Bryan's canned
speeches when the announcement
20 hAeA AAAhN NAA1N hAt N'AApNA 1AAN
candidate was impressing his views
on Photographic records for distribu-
ton to voters. But this was another
idea that rather took with the people.

ridiculous I'm Mr.. Bryan transmitting
his voice and thoughts to them
through a Photographic record when
II was impossible for him 70 reach the
masses in person. The announcement
vas soon forthcoming that Mr.. Tart
had started a canning factory of his
own, with twelve different varieties
OF preserved speech on the menu.
The republican party is up against
a real fight this year, and they don't
know what to do about it. For the
first time In twelve years they have
to do with q united democracy, and
