have been fairer or more to the point
or more free from personal rancor and
abuse than this same letter Of Bryan
to the-President.
But one thing, anybody can see with
half an eye and that is that Bryan got
the best Of Roosevelt. He was too
much forshim in the end. At first we
thought Bryan was hurting his cause.
Now we think he laid 1t all over
Roosevelt. The difference, too, is this !:
Bryan Yields lawyers pen while
Teddy writes as a layman and we want
to tell you that we know just enough
aboutsit to be able to tell You that the
lawyer gets the long end Of the string
every time. Brydh tied Teddy into a
double bowlinot. He, locked the door
with Teddy on the inside and Bryan
threw the key into the well.

spondence will be and we do not know
that we care very much. It,will not
make much difference in the final re-

Against any such attempt, Stevenson
Is MS squarely Democratic now as he
was In 1892 or as when he presided In
the Senate as Vice President OF the
United States, from 1893 to 1897. The
issues thus presented are us well de-
fined now as then. He has supported
Democracy without finching or compro-
missing from his beginnings In Illinois
politics to 1900 and since. When Ills
nois gave him its Endorsement, with
many who had been Republicans voting
for him, 1t was on the issues Of national
control through Democratic principles
as he was known and us he is still
known TO represent them.
After having been an Illinois Vice
President of the United States he is not
running for Governor of the State
merely against Deneen. To run for
Governor merely to eyict Deneen from
office to turn out the Deneen men with
whom the public institutions of Illinois
have been overloaded Mt the cost of the
taxpayers; to make campaign merely
to get Office and the spoils Of Office, II
not what any Intelligent voter In I'LL
nois, Republican OF Democrat, expects
from Stevenson. No one needs to be
told that as a candidate for Governor
Of Illinois he is running In support 81
the principles he has always represent
ed and that necessarily he is running
against Taft and Deneen. not against
Deneen only. Republicans cannot vote
for him intelligently on any other basis.
He will be ready to tell any honest Re
publican, II any homes. RepunIlcai
could need to be told, that he can repre-.
