Mr.. Bryan took for his text Let
there be light" and said in part:
THE Republican policies are without
form and void. Darkness conceals
their plans. The awakened consci'
eEce OF an aroused people calls out
Let there be light
What evils are marshalled behind
the Republican ticket? What debts
are being contracted? What mort
cages are given? Let there be

Challenge to Republicans.
The Democratic committee has
set the example. For the first time
IN orr national history. a national
committee has taken the nation into
! its confidence and given forth a list
Of its contributions. This is In the
interest Of honest politics and hon
est government. II opens q new era

I'VE demand the election Of sena'

senatorial elections be held in the

On secret caacases. where corrupt in
