BRYAN BOLTS DEMOCRA-
re NOMIVBE.

William Jennings Bryan has bolted
the head of the Democratic State
ticket in his own State, Nebraska,
because, be alleges, he Bryan is not
in accord with the Democratic nomi-
nee's views on the liquor question,
Bryan being a prohibitionist and The
Democratic nominee for Governor be-
ing an anti. Bryan says he regrets
that he has to thus depart from party
regularity. but that the crusade
which be feels impelIed to wage
against the interests of the State
and nation o~vershadows d personal
and political friendship Of twenty
years.
This is mighty ugly on the part Of
Mr.. Bryan. thrice the nominee of the
Democratic party.
Mr.. Bryan should remember that
many, many Democrats disagreed
with him in his faIlacious doctrine Of
free silver, which time has proven to
be unsound; with his populistic ideas
Of Government ownership of public
utilities, which policy would create a
political monopoly for autobiography
in power; and with many more of his
unpopular and un-Democratic IDEAS
yet these Democrats supported him,
because he was the Democratic nomi-
nee; they had faith in their party.
and half-hearted faith in Mr.. Bryan
OF, perhaps. many Of these Democrats
supported Mr.. Bryan because he was,
with all his awry ideas, still better
than d Republican.
Anyway, without question as to.
whether prohibition is right or wrong,
there can be no excuse for a man who
has been honored az Mr.. Bryan has
been by the Democratic party, to bolt
the party, especially in his own State,
and at . time when that State. nor
mally Republican, can be carried BY
the party that has been his friend
and his making.
One can not conceive Of a baser
act Of tr%eachery, and it IS happy that
the time has come when Mr.. Bryan is
longer the idol Of the people to
lead them TO his p~opulistic, demego-
zig doctrines by The sway Of his elo-
