Bryan Smoked Out On the TX
Confederate Incident.

The indignant demand of the South in
general and the frantic appeals of fatuous
friends in particular, have, as we go to
press, resulted in Mr.. Bryan breaking the
silence in which he had sought to bury
the charges against himself as to the Con-
federate soldier.
And pitiful plea is his long, founder
ing letter. addressed to Judge c. R. Crisp
and published July 18th in The Atlanta
Constitution. In all it's Bryanite world
ness, there is NOT ONE IOTA OF DE-
NAL.
In answer to the charge that he literal
ly threw away his vote on Mr.. Springer
in the caucus, when Springer himself had
withdrawn in favor of Mr.. Crisp, Mr..
Bryan mumbles something about not llk-
ing band wagon politics. He does not
deny that he refused to vote for Mr.. Crisp.
He hasn't the f1imsiest explanation to give
for his refusal. His wholly unnecessary
and irrelevant reference to the fact that
Mr.. Springer had, when he visited Wash
ington, showed him courtesies, is worse
than absurd If he wished to demon
strate his abiding gratitude for former
hand-out, why did he not follow Spring
er's own judgment when that gentleman
himself was supporting Crisp?
Mr.. Bryan does not even family deny
the language attributed to him by Mr.. Al
fred Henry Lewis: II SHOULD NOT
CARE TO FACE THE OLD SOLDIER
ELEMENT ALONG THE PLATTE

of negro domination in our own state, but
will open it and bid the Colossus come
forth in national politics.
A NADER PLUNGE TOWARD
POLITICAL CHAOS WAS NEVER
TAKEN.
Mark it we'll, gentlemen! The respon-
sibility is yours.
(2) The whole state Of Georgia is sat
urated with profound conviction on the
whiskey issue. Georgia is dry. So we
preach, so we sing, so we pray, SO we
vote.
Yet the Democrats refused to allow
Watson, lifelong Prohlblt1on1st, to
have the empty compliment of the cleo
toral vote of his native state-a state tor
which his people have worked and fought
since early Colonial times-when the can
didate Of National Democracy has never
said word in favor of Prohibition when
his only vote on the issue was against
Prohibition, and when his running mate
is the standing attorney of the Brewers
Combine of Indiana.
We can not believe that the action of
the Democratic Committee in spurnlng
Mr.. Watson's peace offering will enthuse
the Democracy Of Georgia. We believe
that there are tens Of thousands Of hon
est, fearless Democrats who will con-
denim the Committee, and who will re-
fuse to be made parties to the establish
ment of negro domination in national
campaigns.

Young g1r. Crisp TO the Rescue.

The Bryanites are nightly worried
about that ex-Confederate business.
Well may they be. Mr.. Watson knew
nothing of it until this year, for the facts
were not published in the Southern pa
pers. His attention was called to it by an
ex-Congressman of Georgia, and he i'm
mediately applied to Alfred Henry Lewis
for the story.
The standing of Mr.. Lewis, as gen
tlemen, is quite as good as that Of Mr.
Bryan, and in point of ability he is far
and away the superior of Bryan.
Mr. Watson believes the statement of
Mr.. Lewis for two reasons:
CD Because Mr. Lewis is a man of
honor, and had no motive whatever in
1891, when he first published the story,
to invent it.
(2) Because Bryan did not enter de-
NAL at the time, and lodges the issue
even now.
In their distress the Bryanites appeal to
young Mr. Crisp. Please read his state
ment carefully. Says he:
"Mr. Bryan supported Mr.. Springer,
of Illinois, in the caucus for speaker in
December, 1901 Mr. Bryan was raised
in Mr.. Springers district, and the rela-
tionship between the two was very close.
After the caucus Mr.. Bryan voted for
my father for speaker, and this the Con
gressional Record will show. My father
and Mr.. Bryan were close friends. In the
succeeding caucus, Mr.. Bryan was an
active supporter of my father for speak
er and voted for him, both in the caucus
and in the house. My father appointed
Mr.. Bryan on the leading committees"
Now, is it not clear that young Mr..
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1908-07-30
Mr.. Watson S Peace-OHeYing
Rejected.
Rejected.

Could any man have gone farther than
Mr. Watson, in his efforts to keep down
political bitterness in Georgia?
He asked the Democrats to put few
Populists on their electoral ticket, and to
print his name along with that of Bryan
on the ballot, so that the voter could
scratch Watson and vote Bryan, or
scratch Bryan and vote Watson.
With magnanimitv which really laid
him open to the criticism of being incon-
sistent, he proposed that, in the event
Watson received the electoral vote Of the
state he would deliver it to Bryan, in
case it should be indispensable to Bryan's
election as president.
Was a more generous offer ever made!
Throughout the ranks of Populism, Mr..
Watson has been roundly censured for
making such a proposition. In other
states he has lost many supporters by
it. But so earnest was his desire for
an era of good will at home that he stood
pat on his offer.
And the Democrats have turned it
down. A more fatuous mistake was never
made.
See how they have stultifed Our state
CD We are on record as being opposed
to negro domination, but Georgia's vote is
to be given to our Illinois hero whose
whole plan of campaign pivots on the ne
gro vote of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
New York.
In national politics the weight Of the
Empire State of the South is to be
thrown in favor of negro domination, in
the same year when the voters Of Geor-
gia are asked to do away with the posi-
bility of negro domination in our state.
We have toiled and moiled to disfran-
chise the negroes in the Southern States.
Yet Bryan is setting the vicious prece-
dent of making the negro the umpire OF
dispute between the whites, in his dick
erings and deals with the negro leaders
on the other side of Mason and Dixon's
line
In our native state of Georgia the
whites, in the same election year, will
vote the negro out of state politics and
vote him into national politics. We will

'' financial Folly. !"

Is the name of weekly paper just es-
tablished in New York City, by Dennis
O'Sullivan, whose book, "The Cold Sto-
rage Baby" is terrible arraignment of
our present system of class-legislation.
In one of his editorials, Mr.. O'Sullivan
calls attention to the fact that the money
plank as adopted by the Republicans
dropped the words ''redeemable in,"
where they came in between dollars"
and gold"
Every dollar shall be based upon, and
as good as gold" is the way the platform
reads.
That's gold standard, without the omit
ted words.

After waiting for weeks, in the hope
that he could BY silence evade that which
he could not possibly deny, Mr.. Bryan

lie excuses.

Bryan has been smoked out! Last

OF course, at the state affairs, but at

The baron always took a great inter

this nation and his own. In one of his

regard TO this spirit as follows:
