idea of the dimensions of this dam

that it will be nearly 1900 feet

yelt steps out and gradually dis
appears from view, Taft, as his
successor, will fall more and more
under the influence of those who
opposed Roosevelt, and that if the
people of the west really want y
progressive administration during
the next four years they will have
to take Mr.. Bryan.
In the west the Democratic
leader will point to the nomination
of Sherman at Chicago as proof
that the reactionaries were IN con
troll there. He will remind pro-
gresslve Republicans everywhere
that the planks which they favor
as a part of the new idea in our
public life were not only turned
down by overwhelming vote when
brought forward at Chicago by the
Wisconsin delegation, but de-
nounced as democratic and So
cialis,ic" by Chairman Hopkins of
the Committee on Resolutions.
He will try to convince western
Republicans that on the tariff the
revision promised by the Republi-
cans means a revision upward,
while the Democracy stands
pledged to give revision downward,
not for the benefit of the manu-
facturer, but for the good of the
consumer.
In the east Mr.. Bryan will main
taip that Democratic policies are
really conservative. Az the very
least he will maintain that what
ever they are they are to be car
ried ont without any favoritism,
but there will be no juggling with
New Haven and Hartford or other
interests which have friends at
court.
1t is curious fact that Mr.. Bry.
an really believes be can make
gains in the east on the far side of
the Alleghenies by avoiding too
much radlcalism in the platform
and by taking advantage Of re
action from Hoosepeltism,
Another curious fact In this cons
neotion is Mr.. Bryan's belief, aud
the belief of bis friends, that one
great aid TO the Democratic cause
this year will be the knowledge
of business men and railway man
ayers and manufacturers that if
Bryan should be elected they are
safer from interference and annoy
ance than they would be it Taft
were elected. With Taft in the
White House the Republicans
would have to revise the tariff, and
they woRld baYe toput up a bluff, at
least, toward railway and anti.
trust legislation. But with Bryan
IN the White house and the Senate

surely be nothing at all could be
done for fopr years. There would
be an absolute blockade of legis-
lation. Business would get a rest.
