WILLIAM ]. BRYAN
SPEAKS IN MARIETTA
Stops While on His Way
From Gainesville
to Atlanta.

William Jennings Bryan passed
through Marietta Friday on his way
from Gainesville to Atlanta and
stopped long enough to make a
short speech.
Mr.. Bryan's visit to the city was
unexpected. He was one of the
attractions at the Gainesville Chau.
tauqua and the schedules on the
railroad were not such that he could
reach Atlanta conveniently after his
lecture. Mr.. Fred L. Seely, of the
Georgian, went to Gainesville for
Mr.. Bryan and took him to Atlanta
in an automobile. The Marietta
Journal issued bulletin stating
that Mr.. Bryan would pass through
the city about five o'clock in the
afternoon and atthat hour number
of citizens were gathered to see him.
When Mr.. Seely's car rolled in it
contained Mr.. Seely, Mr.. Bryan and
Mr.. J. R. Smith, manager Of Gov
ernor Browns campaigns.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Meinert in
their car met the visitors and Mrs.
Meinert presented Mr.. Bryan with
very large and beautiful boquet
which he seemed to appreciate very
highly.
Mr.. Bryan was escorted to the
band stand in the Park where the
crowd gathered. He was presented
by the editor of the Journal and
Courier and made a talk of about
fifteen minutes length on the Com
mission form of Government, Dem
ocratic prospects, etc. He spoke
of the great change that has come
about in Congress where some
of the propositions that were ridI-
culed fifteen or eighteen years ago
have now become so popular. The
initiative, referendum and recall
once sneered at have been accepted
by vast numbers of people as the
most effective way of letting the
people run their own affairs tC
suit themselves.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Bryan:
speech he went on to Atlanta where
! he spoke Friday night at the Audi
torium-Armory on the Commission
Form of Government. which i
seems Atlanta is about to adopt in
stead of having the city governed By
mayor and council.

pecially the proposed Johnson.Sher-
man highway.
The dinner was served in the
large dining room of the Park Hotel
and it was a magnificent spread
consisting of salads and delicacies
to suit the most fastidious. After
dinner speeches were made by local
people and visitors all endorsing the
Johnson-Sherman highway. Judge
