How Does II Happen?

The New York World says: "a
tax on the hundreds OF millions OF
annual income OF the wealthy would
20 far toward relieving the burden OF
taxation now borne BY people With
small incomes or almost no incomes
at all. There Is no more just or
equitable way OF raising public
revenue"
Yet the republican national con-
yention defeated an income tax plank
BY a vote OF $50 nays TO Is yeas.
How does IL happen that such a just
method OF raising public revenue

in an assemblage Of 97s republican
leaders?-The Commoner.

Here's the way the intensely anti

1t Is rot possible to-day so rally
the conservative forces OF the country
in opposition to Bryan so splendidly
as In 1896. Everybody knows the
reason why. You cannot revile a
man whom you have initiated. A
party that has appropriated Bryan's
ideas cannot, with good effect, at
tack his person. At the very begin
ming OF the Republican campaign, it
is the part whether OF irankness or
sound generslship, to admit that
power OF resistance to Bryan has
been broken by yielding to him.
President Roosevelt's avowed and
deliberate purpose has been to head
off Bryan by stealing his Issues. The

the most OF himself, intellectually,

advice from these competent to give
It, and to follow such advice, unless
