An Appeal for Bryan.

The following statement to the Demo-
cratic voters of Vermont, ia the interest
of William }, Bryan is made public by
&. Herbert Pape, president, and Phil S.
Howes, secretary of the Vermont branch
Of the Democratic Progressive League
of New England.
"rhe Vermont branch of the Demo.
cratic Progressive League of New Eng
land, believing that Hon. William j..
Bryan of Nebraska, is the strongest and
most logical candidate for the Democrat
ic party to nominate for president of the
United States, hereby calls upon alt
Democrats of Vermont who favor Mr.
Bryan's nomination, to cooperate with
them to accomplish that result
"By his high personal character, his
patriotism, his great ability, which has
been recognized both at home and
abroad, his able advocacy of the great
Democratic principle of equal rights
for all and special privileges for none,
we have in Mr.. Bryan the ideal Demo
cratic candidate.
GAS vote-getter, Mr. Bryan is not
the failure that his political opponent,
in and out of his party are trying t,
picture him.
