HOME RULE

The speech of William Jennings
Bryan at Peoria, Wednesday makes
it very clear that he stands upon
the question of state rights, right
where the immortal Jefferson stood
years ago. and that he has not
become imbued with the new fan
glcd idea, which mas become yay
popular in the last few years, of do
ing away with the rights of states
and Centralizing all of the power in
the government at Washington. MIR.
Bryan states that he believes in al.
lowing the states TO govern them
selves in all tAliugs where the rights
of other states are moi involved anil
in this self government, or home
rule for states, If you choose to
call IL by that name, tiey shall be
given adj possible latitude and that
the government Of the nation shall
be strictly adhered TO and main
tained by all Of the states acting in
unlson.
How differently Mr.. Bryans words
sound from those which have come
from the Republican adminlstra-
tion in the pas. few months when
1t was proposed 10 take away from
the states all Of the rights they have
D,en enjoying and vest al authority
In the government at Washington.

state las and what it has not is
