John E. Osborne, former governor
of Wyoming and manager of the Ma
tional Democratic campaign in the
West, returned to Denver yesterday
from a meeting of the National Dem
ocratic Executive Committee at which
final plans for the conduct of the cam
paign were laid. He declared that
never in the past twenty years have
the Democratic leaders been so GER
tain of success for the ticket, and
ed among the workers of the party.
Since the national convention the
national committeeman in most of
the states have had an opportunity
to canvass the feeling in their Sec
lions of the country, and without eX-
ception report that Bryan sentiment
is growing apace. Republicans who
have stood by the G. o. p. for many
years have renowned their alleg-
lance to that party and declared for
the great commoner.
Two reasons are advanced by them
the backsliding of the party from
the policies advocated by Roosevelt
and the support of Taft by Roosevelt
in spite of the slap given the Presi-
dent in the platform; the attitude OF
Roosevelt in forcing his successor up
on the party in h face of protest,
and the weakness of the candidate.
