Kansas City, Mo, Aug. 27.-Bryan
and his party arrived here from st.
Louis this morning and left for To-
peka, Kas., where he speaks tonight
on Guaranty of Bank Deposits"
Changes His Speech.
In view of the republican state con-
vention of Kansas endorsing the guar
of bank deposits, Bryan said it
would be necessary for him to make
some additions to his speech at To
peka tonight. Without outlining his
additional remarks on the subject,
said:
Rebuke to Taft.
The action of the republican state
convention Of Kansas Is a rebuke to
the republican candidate for president,
who has been assailing the guaranty
of depositors.
Opposes National System.
Not only is he opposed to the sys-
TEN as a national system, but the at
torney general has made a ruling
which prevents national banks from
taking advantage OF the state system
Glad Of Result.
Il am very glad to have the ISSUE
drawn so clearly. The action OF the
republican state convention in Kan
sas makes 1t impossible for the re
publicans Of that state to oppose our
plan, while the action of Taft and
Bonoporte shuts OF all hope Of favor
able action by the republican party.
Must Linz Up With s5lni.
Those who favor the guaranty Of
bank deposits, therefore. will find
their only hope in a democratic vic.
tory"
