The Latest BRYAN Gossip.

An unnamed friend OF NJ Bryan has
been talking about his leader and the flu
ture. He does not expect Mr.. Bryan to
make another race for the presidency. but
does not doubt the latter'S desire or abi-
ity TO name the man And of course the
man must he Il simon pure Bryante,
without guile a blot on his party
record
But. We are told. not every man who
supported Mr. Bryan last year may be
counted among the eliGibleS. Gov. john
son of Minnesota, for one, is barred Rea-
son not given. Need il he given? Do we
not I'll know that the short-lived JOHN
son boom of last year was an anti-Bryan
maneuycr? Mr.. Watterson, who launched
1t. was at the time anti Bryan. Subse-
quently he made hts peace with the Orator
of the Platte and from that day the John
son boom knew him not. But the men
who remained anti-Bryan clung to the
boom. and the MnnesIan did not say
them nay. the boom survived and Gov
Johnson - 'ad 'opes" until the Denver con-
vention spoke and set things al rest
Mr. Bryan is busy man, but keeps
track of everything relating to his for
tunes. Likewise is he very human He
knows his own; and the difference between
a man who supports him willingly and
joyouslN. and one who does so AT party
command and in order to he regular is
very marked. indeed. Gov. Johnson $
course up to the Denver convention, and
after. was all for Johnson. He tried to
defeat Mr.. Bryan for the nomination. but
on his own account did not dare TO carry
his opposition further. A bolt would have
cost him his political existence.
But is Mr. Bryan's position correctly
stated by his unnamed friend? Why
should he at this early day make up his
mind as 10 1917? Why not wait awhile
and note the drift of things? The repub-
licans. for all their present strength, have
hard row to hoe. Their program is diff
ficut; their responsibility complete. If
they trip they may pay a heavy penalty.
Why should not Mr.. Bryan. before de-
termining his attitude toward it. permit
events to declare the value of the next
democratic presidential nomination?
He is still an interesting man in the
public estimation. His engagements as d
lecturer are more numerous than ever
before. He is the topiiner on his circuit
Money is pouring into his purse. In u
general way the world is going we'll with
him. His tours enable him to remain in
touch with politicians everywhere. and
they keep him advised as to changes.
There is probably no man in his party 50
well informed as he as to new currents
in affairs. He knows promptly when they
appear, what direction they take. and
what they mean. We may all be sure that
when Mr.. Bryan withdraws from the field
he will not do so through the medium of
an unnamed friend.

The Extra Session.

We hear a good deal abou, taking the

low tariff men contend for their respective
policies the tariff will remain a legiti-
mate subject of political discussion. 1t
Will continue 20 figure both in congress
sional campaigns and in presidential CAM
paisns and the winners at the polls will
be expected to give the country such
tariff legislation as they may have prom
ised while soliciting votes.
But the present opportunity is an ex-
cellent one for taking the tariff out OF
live contention in politics for some years
10 come. If the new Congress revises
the schedules in way to redeem the
promises made in Judge Taft's behalf last
year, and at the same time to provide the
government with revenue sufficient to
meet the expenses demanded by the ma
tional growth. the tariff issue cannot fig
ure disturbinsly either next year or in
1872, and 1t may not do SO again before
1915 Mr.. Bryan and his friends will con-
tinue to present the subject, but the
proper law on the books will render their
efforts fruitless.
