When William Jennings Bryan declared
that the Republican slogan Of "full
dinner pail was an objectionable insult
to the American workmen-that II was
intended TO convey the idea that they had
no higher ambition in life than full
stomach-he gave utterancc 10 the gospel
truth. The insulting appeal was TO the
stomach and not to the intelligence OF our
American workmen, who, as a whole, are
men OF high ideals and commendable am
bition TO better their condition in life.
Mr.. Bryan admonished the American
workmen TO resent the insult and teach
those men lesson who had placed them
in the animal class. that they were SUI
perior human beings to those who had
DETAINED them. But many refused TO
heed the advice Of Mr.. Bryan and voted
for those who traduced them. They are
the ones who are now suffering, and not
