This sensible appeals everyone further
of sincerity nsefne and sanity like his calming the fen-
zed 1896 with the remark that unless his

tua campaign Mr. Bryan, like Mr. Lincoln will show
and vivid interest the opposite indifference
Personally believe Mr. Bryans particular theory of
the ownership and management railroads democratic
economically plan competition their
tracks by law authorizing the attorney general of his
motion relation anyone aggreived the existing
ownership and control and install other socaed
managers However, through with deserng great
men because cannot agree with every detail

Mr. Bryana political combinations by the pure
force courage honesty and democratic instinct Tom L. John
of Cleveland my mind splendid Democrat without
equal business sagacy OF great executive ability he would
make wonderfully fine Democratic president But If he be living
time there is only possibilyNIr Bryan himself His
services campaigns his conspicuous part in making Demo
crat history but knowledge him which his country
have gained he stood in the bright light giving them the
surng confidence that he their their WARRIOR with skill and
strength courage for the warfare his personality and democratic
worth all make him uqestonaby the leader of the people the

Such cry went up told all but fools sodden their
folly Democratic would defeat Judge Parker and that al
ter he was submerged returning tidal would pick up the
standing there democratic Democrat for the people

is said Mr. will be forced against Mr. Bryan
as the only Republican democratic enough oppose him.
But he will run and he doese Mr. Bryan will defeat him
have heard suggestion great corporations and property
