INTENSIFYtNG THE PEOPLE

Since the Pennsylvania decision
which practically annuls the 2 cent
rate IN that State has been delivered
there are many who claim to see all 2
cent rates marching to oblivian. This
is as foolish as to suppose that liberty
Ia Russia has died. because a few OF
its advocates have been exec tied. The
people are behind the cent rate, tn g
courts against it. 1t is not always an
easy thing to sweep court decision
out of the way, but it has often been
done. The bred Scott Case is nota-
BILE example, and no matter which side
of the controversy one was on in the
great struggle which followed that
decision, be must admit that the decis
ion was, with reference to that i'm
pending struggle, what the blood of
the martyr has always been to the
growth of the church. Let the courts
and the railroads have care.

Corporation Commission 1t is certain
that no effort ever fell flatter, and it

WATTERSON ON BRYAN.

To the Editor of The Sun-Sir: /
am so used to being misquOted that
am grown callous to it; but some no
tlce of the following, which 1 find in
your Washington correspondence,
seems to justify word or two of re.
buttal:
In bis talk with fellow Democrats
MIR. Watterson warmly approved Mr..
Bryan as the Presidential nominee oil
the party. ''Some time ago. be ex-
planned Il attempted to work up q
sentiment against him, but failed. TO
day he is the undeubted choice Of a
vast majority of Democrats and the
strongest man in the country, and it
would be wrong not to nominate him, ,
l have st no time warmly approx
ed" Mr.. Bryan for anything. Quite
eight months ago 1 undertook a sys
tematlc and, as l thoughtj an intelli
gent campaign designed to organize
such volume of public opinion az
would convince the Nebraskan that
short of some economic cataclysm he
could not hope to carry any of the de.
batable States and therefore could not
be elected. All that is being said now
against his candidacy 1 said then
though l wrote in a spirit of cOnciIia.
tion. The lesson of 1904 admonished
| me that he and his friends must be
satisfied to unite the party and elect
any ticket.
Mr.. Bryan said In response that il
the party could find man likely to
get more votes than himself be wOuld
be for that man, but that the man mus
be "a regulation Democrat. Then ]
said that if MIR. Bryan were sincere in
this l could name him a man answer
Ing his req uirement, who certainly full
filled all other requirements, Ulti.
mately it came out that had Governor
johnson of Minnesota In mind. There
followed six months of newspaper ouy
ing OF one sort and another, not a syl
liable OF serious consideration. Mr.
Bryan naturally construed this to NEAR
that my appeal had met no answering
i volce-he announced himself q candi-
date-each possible competitor, Cover
nor johnson, Governor Folk, Senator
Culberson, declared they would not
oppose him-Denver, a Bryan strong
hold, was chosen for the national con-
ventlon-and nothing Is surer than
that he will be nominated The onIy
effect of Mr.. Bryan's defeat would be
repetition of 1904. The Bryan idea
has so sandbagged the politicians and
buncned the back settlements as to
