Praise for Bryan.

Editor The Washington Herald:
While not an ardent admirer Of Bryan
ism. certainly feel inclined to give Hon.
w ]. Bryan credit for many Of the
hobbies he has advocated for the welfare
of the masses in his political career.
His letter to the President of the United
States at this time is opportune, when
he puts the question.
why not give the people a chance 70
vote for an amendment providing for the
election Of United States Senators by
popular voter
Naturally. this Is in line with the pro-
posed income tax which calls for con-
stitutiOnal amendment.
II has been almost a universal slogan
from California to Maine to elect Sena-
tors by direct vote of the people.

THAW'S WIFE ON STAND
She Refuses 70 Say Whether He
Threatened Her.

AT White Plains. N. Y, Evelyn
Nesbit Thaw was on the stand before
Justice Mills. subpoenaed by the state
in It's fight TO keep Harry Thaw in the
asylum for the criminal insane at Mat.
teawan.
Though called by the state to prove
Harry Thaw irrational, what Roger
Clark. the deputy attorney general.
drew from her lips created rather a
favorable impression for her husband.
Clarke tried hard TO get her TO admit
that Thaw had threatened her life
when she visited him on one occasion
after bis commitment 10 Matteawan.
She repeatedly refused 20 answer the
questions. Justice Mills ruled that he
would hold as confidential all CONVEX
sations between husband and wife.
The testimony was much like that
introduced MISUNDERSTANDING by
witnesses called by Thaw's counsel. all
OF whom attested TO his apparent
soundness OF mind.
