New England for Bryan.

George Fred Williams of Massachusetts, one of
the strong democratic leaders of the nation was in
Denver last week. Between the Denver convention
and his return to the convention city he had made
of the New England states and his appre-
citation of the situation there is surprisingly encour
aging.
1t does not seem to be at all necessary to rely
entirely on the western states for democratic sue
cess for the east is falling into line overwhelmingly
according to Mr.. Williams He says the republican
party is broken up by the panic of last fall and the
depression that still prevails, producing business
conditions that the west is unable to comprehend
in its immunity from the effects of the commercial
disaster
Of the situation, Mr.. Williams says:
The huge cotton, wool and leather industries of
New England are at a standstill because of the
inability to dispose of stocks hand except as de-
mand comes from the west, where the panic was
not telt IN the same measure as in the east Thous-
ands upon thousands of textile and leather workers
are out of employment result of the panic and
the party in power is universally condemned as
being responsible for the conditions that exist
These are conditions that breed unrest and in
spire demand for change that is likely to be
recorded at the polls next fall The republican
party has long occupied the position of sponsor to
prosperity, in its own assertiveness that tremen-
dous reaction must follow the sudden departure of
prosperity while the republican party was at the
zenith of its power and strength capable of con-
trolling all legislation and the enforcement of all
the laws.
Mr.. Williams testified that the people of New
England, and the east in general pleased with the
democratic ticket and the democratic platform and
have implicit confidence in Mr.. Bryan, notwithstand-
ing the efforts of the eastern press to convey the
opposite impression
The newspapers of the eastern states are not in as
close touch with the voting masses as the news
papers of the western states They are representa-
