DENVER, July 10.-One of the most
stirring speeches of the closing hours
of the nominating session was that of
Congressman James T. Hefiin of Ana
| bama, seconding the nomination of
Mr.. Bryan IN these glowing words
he paid tribute to the man who was
destined to be the party's leader:
Il rise to second the nomination of
| man who is, and has been for
long time, the lido! of the democratic
masses. Every throb of his big heart
| is loyal to their interests. As patriot
no man ever had deeper or more ex-
allied love for his country than has
this. peerless democrat for the Ameri-
can republic. AS teacher of civics
the world has not seen his equal since
Jefferson wrote and spoke. AS de-
fender of justice he ranks among the
worlds bravest and best AS an ad
vocate of popular rights he is the
ablest and most fearless of American
citizens. AS a statesman he resem-
bles a tower seen afar off and under
clear sky rising in grandeur and sub
Unity at every step of approach. AS
an orator Cicero would have been de-
lighted with his diction. Demosthenes
would have been charmed with his
forceful sentences, Daniel O'Conne'l
would have applauded his feryid elo-
quence and Daniel Webster would
have been inspired by his powerful,
convincing logic.
He is to the tariff-robbed and trust
ridden masses of America what Mira
beau was to the downtrodden of
France. He is to the enemies of equal
rights in this country what DAME
i oil Of
ireland. He has given expression to
more great thoughts and lead more
people to higher ground than any 9TH
er American, He is the intellectual
giant of the United States He is less
misunderstood and more misrepre-
scented than any other statesman in
our history. So frank and fair and
fearless that he cannot be misunder-
stood-so true is he and so uncomprO-
misingiy just that his political oppon-
ents and the great tTuSt-contrOkled
dailies dare not play fair or fight him
in the open. Statesmen, world diplo-
mats and kings have paid him tribute.
At the international peace conference
in London five hundred representa-
tiVes from twenty-six of the greatest
nations on the globe in council as
sembled requested his assistance that
they might profit by his wisdom con-
corning arbitration and his words up
on that occasion and Cd that subject
have become international law. If /
could speak a thousand tongues and
could command the eloquence of the
worlds best l could not express the
unselfshness of his life nor the power
of his genius-the charm of his elo-
quence is his sincerity-its strength
is his moral courage. He is the Thorn
as Jefferson of new deciaration-a
dec aration of independence from the
tyranny of combines and trusts. He
is the Patrick Henry OF new revOlu-
tion-a revolution in civic affairs that
means the overthrow of plutocracy
and the restoration of the ark of our
civic covenant to the friends of consti-
tional government. He is the George
Washington who will lead our right
eous cause to victory in November.
''Mr. Chairman there is a mountain
peak in the Hymalayas that towers
beyond the reach of rains and SHOWS,
and scientists tell us that an open
book there might remain unsoi,ed by
dust through passing centuries. De-
mocracy's great champion towering
above the miasma of time-servers and
