Following his declaration of yesterday
To the Baltimore sun that he had not
discussed the Brownsville affair or the
! question of the appointment of ne
/ groes to office. Mr. Bryan today an
nounced that he did not wish to be
misunderstood He said he did not
mean to convey the impression that
he had never talked about the
Brownsville case in any manner, but
| that he had not discussed it as an
| issue in the present campaign. While
50 far as he has read the evidence
bearing on that subject he recalled
an editorial written by him two years
ago in which he make the frank as
sertion that If the facts were as stat
! ed. President Roosevelt was fully Jus
| titled in his course.
The standard bearers for democracy
are out for the farmer vote OF the
country In joint letter today Mr.
Bryan and Mr.. Kern appeal TO tise
| farmers for campaign contributions in
! order, as the letter states. to assist in
the restoration - the democratic i~lr-
ty to power ami thus secure for the
agrieulturists larger return for their
labor
Tonight Mr.. Bryan went into Lin
coin to attend a Masonic meeting and
two hours afterward received at his
home a large delegation from the 10
cal central labor union.
The chairman of the delegation pre-
sented to Mr. Bryan resolutions ex-
pressing their confidence in him and
pledging their support of his eandi-
dacy for president.
While this was purely local the
resolutions afforded Mr.. Bryan a
chance to make his first real political
speech since his nomination He em-
phasized his qualification that the |
great labor leaders have been 50 wen
satisfied with the work of the resolu-
tions committee of the recent Denver |
convention. Mr. Bryan said
Gentlemen of the Central Labor
Union: / am very grateful To you fer
this generous expression of confidence
and this pledge of your support The
resolution is the more pleasing to me
because 1t comes from you among
whom l have lived for now a little
more than twenty. years. Among the
testimonials that have been given by
neighbors and friends, there are none
that 1 prize more highly than this
voluntary proffer of your support,
this expression of your confidence and
good will

dorses a number of remedial meas
