nounced that he would not support

awakened some little comment in
political circles.

any political party might well
adopt The utterance may come
as a shock TO a distinguished sena-
tor from a state south of the Poto-
mac river who rather bitterly ac-
cused Mr.. Bryan Of taking his views
and principles from the Independ.

However Governor Johnson did
