Democrats. There were Whisperings
of his imperialistic temperament; of
his love for the sound of his own
voice. of his ignoring the suggest
ions and hints of leaders who had
been with the party when Bryan was
still unknown, in Nebraska.
And when the crucial test came,
Bryan failed in strength and the
Democrats lost. while in sight of the
Promised Land.
And the second and third nomina-
tons of William J. Bryan read as
the first
Against the advice of many, stub
born in his own faith Of himself,
overbearing in his demands to his
party, for three successive times did
he lead the Democrats to overwhelm-
ing defeat.
If the knowledge of his long domi-
nance of the Democratic party is any
comfort to him, William J. Bryan
may reflect on this fact: with the
exception of Jefferson and Andrew
Jackson he was dictator longer than
any other leader in the history of
the Democratic party.
His platform has changed in size
and construction SO often, it is hard
to realize just where he stands. His
most drastic adoption was the ia
nous '16 to II, in favor of free sill
yer; the government ownership of
railroads was another plank which
aided largely in defeating the party.
AS a leader without a following,
Bryan will never loom large outside
his own State; though he has de-
veloped a bombast and an assurance
which has utterly separated him
from the rank and file of the Demo-
cratic party, he will still proclaim
himself, his views, his opinions, and
his willingness ''to serve the peo-
pie" whenever occasion or oppor-
tunity offers.
And the Democratic party, being
distressingly short of Presidential
timber, thinks with sorrow of the
blunders their Moses made; the
party has become almost as wobble-
kneed and as thin-blooded as the
Jews of old, but, goaded by the fat
years of Republican misrule, smart
ing under the injustices of the pres
ent Infamous tariff, hacked and rid
den by the overbearing Trusts,
which have fattened on the flesh of
the poor, a successor to the once ia
nous Nebraskan may soon appear
to smite the rock of Republican
domination, and once again the
waters of Prosperity may bless the
hungry, lean and weary followers of
the Democratic camp.

new one became drunk with power;
he forgot he was called to REPRE-

him, and he became dictatorial,
overbearing and stubborn.

golden phrases which flowed from
