MR.. BRYAN.


not agree with Mr.. Bryan in the
policies he advocates, am free
to say that l regard him as the
most important citizen in the
country today. AS an ever ready
protestant against the encroach-
ments of special interests he is
rendering invaluable service to
the country and but for him some
of these special interests would
run away with us"
This was certainly high tri-
butte from a political opponent
and the correctness of the tribute
will, we believe, be generally ap-
proved. That this is the common
opinion may explain the oft re-
peated remark, that although de-
feated for the presidency three
times. Mr.. Bryan's hold upon the
American people today is stronger
than ever.
1t is safe to say that thousands
of men who voted against Will
liam J. Bryan confidently look to
the defeated candidate for the
presidency for some measure of
protection from imposition by
the benehciaries of the trust sys-
tenn.
In this view. then, Mr.. Bryan
occupies-so far as public inter-
ests are concerned position
second in importance only to that
of the presidency.
AS a great Commoner in whose
purity OF purr ose men of all par
ties have absolute confidence,
William J. Bryan has great op-
portunity to render service to his
fellows. That he will grasp this
opportunity no one will doubt.
He will do it from the lecture
platform; no will do it in news
paper interviews; but best of all
he will do it through his own pub
lication-The Commoner-a pa
per that is now steadily forging
to the front because through its
columns the American people
may continually keep in touch
with Mr.. Bryan's opinion upon
public questions and with his
efforts for the public welfare.
Mr.. Bryan announces that he
has again assumed editorial
charge of The Commoner and
that he will give active. personal
attention to the editorial depart
ment.
Men of all political parties
have deep and abiding interest
in the fight which Mr.. Bryan is
to. wage through the columns of
The Commoner. 1t is a fight of
the public welfare; fight against
the encroachment by special in
terest; fight for the protection
of the men who. in professional
Office, on the farm, in counting <
room or in workshop give honest
toll for their livelihood. 1t is a
fight to preserve popular govern
ment as the fathers founded it.
In the initial number of The
Commoner printed in 1901 Mr..
Bryan said: "The Commoner
will be satisfied if, by fidelity to
the people, it proves its right to
the name which has been chosen" /"
The Commoner has proved its
right to the name and because it
is giving this proof in abundance
The Commoner deserves the
support of the American people.
Feeling that wider circulation
of The Commoner in our section
will materially advance the DEM
ocratic cause. and that a large
