that time, as We are told today that
they will be exercised now. There
are many historical incidents prov.
ing this charge. There are plenty OF
Hearst editorials between 80 and
1900 that can be cited to show the
underhanded and indirect way In
which his papers were then opposing
MIR. Bryan.
But now the only ground upon
which Mr.. Hearst's spokesmen declare
that he will antagonize Mr.. Bryan is
that Mr.. Bryan refused to make a
speech seconding his nomination at
the St. Louis convention. Mr.. Hearst
himself does not say 50, but he al
lows other people In his confidence to
say 1t for him. II the one reason for
