BRYAN COMPARES

Conmoner Says His Greatest
Sin Is to Be Made a Virtue

LINCOLN. Neb.. Sept e.-William j.
Bryan left here at o'clock today over
the Rock Island railroad for Chicago,
and thus began three weeks cam
paign tour which will carry him into
the middle west, the eastern states and
back through the west into South Da-
kota before returning home.
Perhaps no recent news afforded the
democratic candidate for president so
much interest as the announcemeEt
that Taft purposed making a campaign
tour Bryan regarded his opponents s
decision as a distinctive vindication OF
his course in the present as well as his
two previous campaigns, when he trav-
eled over the country and delivered po-
litical speeches. When asked if he had
any comment to make on the subject
Bryan said:

dent and Mr.. Taft have been doing 1

cause 1 favored railroad regulation.

brought that reform into popularity and

cial session called Immediately after in
