He has been criticized ny members
OF his own party for insisting upor
making political questions moral ques'
tons The writer heard a man as well
! known as any other IN Virginia say
four years ago that Mr.. Bryan made
a mistake In making an economic
question, such as that OF the coinage
a question Of morals. But Mr., Bryan
insists that good morals should be
good politics, and that bad morals
must be bad politics.
He has never had the confidence OF
warm support OF the majority OF the
leaders OF the Democratic party, Just
| as Mr.. Roosevelt has not been able ia
count upon the jealous support OF the
leaders OF the Republican party. The
public men In Virginia who wanted
Mr., Bryan nominated are very few,
although the way in which they got
into the band wagon at the Roanoke
convention doubtless caused the aver.
age delegate and spectator to believe
that all the Democratic leaders In
Virginia were original Bryan men.
It has been remarked that II the
Democratic leaders who did not want
Mr.. Bryan nominated were to vote for
Judge Taft, and II the Republican lead
