KANSAS CITY, No. March 3l.-Hun-
dreds Of Democrats from Missouri, Kan

the dollar dinner given last night by
the Young Mems Democratic Club, at
which William J. Bryan and JudsOn
Harmon were the chief guests.
Mr.. Bryan's opening statement, eve
have yet to begin the campaign Of 19nS
and TO present those principles and poll
cies which ought to appeal 10 pro-
gressive Republicans as well as 20 ira
ditional Democrats" was the keynote Of
his speech.
Speaking OF Republican candidates.
Mr.. Bryan declared: IF the President
had picked out Senator La Toilette. a
real refOrmer; II the Republican party
had rallied TO Senator La Follette's sup
port IL could have compelled the conf
dence of reform Republicans.
The President has picked out Secre-
taTy Taft and given him the support OF
the Administration Without the sup
port of the Administration the Secre-
tary would scarcely nave a State in tho
convention, and with the President S
support he is having an uphill fight He
has nc record as q. reformer. and his
speeches do not indicate a definite pur-
pose or a courageous program He may
be the best man the President could
find among his Cabinet officers, but Sec
rotary Taft's superiority over his col
leagues is due not TO his positive
virtues. but 10 the fact that none OF

Mr.. Harmon argued that trusts -four
ished because of the Republican tariff,
saying:
Il am certain that but few fair and
dlsinterested men now deny that the
trusts and the unnatural distribution OF

due to the enormous and unfair tariff
