the Great Oarsman. And they
got.
Throughout it all Bryan was
sweet and smiling-fair as a day
in June or any other month. He
lacked the bluff and buster of
other fighters one might name.
He attempted to brow-bate no
body. He went after" those
who were opposing him, but he
did so openly and above board.
He called names-the names of
men who faced him. He did not
go around the corner to denounce
anybody;he denounced everybody
he saw fit to denounce right out
in the convention, where those
denounced could hear him.
All the time Byran was per-
forming other tasks. He was
debating a column or two a day
to a list of chosen newspapers.
He was attending to business
while attending to politics. He
was making history with hand,
a living with the other, and there
was 70 blots upon the history he
made nor upon the money he
earned.
Only great man could win
the fight which Bryan won.
Only man of mercy could have
been so merciful to those he
castigated. No one but a philan-
thropist could have so scourged
the delegates and at the same
time shown them so much SYM
patty. For it must be rememb-
cred that Bryan had it within his
power to do much more persona,
damage to certain delegates
than he did.
And over and above all, while
the passions were at white heat,
while the great throng yelled it
self hoarse or whipped itself in
| to frenzy. the Nebraskan sal
with thoughtful brow and watch
t full eye, eager only to be o.
} service to his country, to his fel
low-men. This is the kind o:
: man one must see in Bryan
| when he lays aside all prejudice
r for or against him and consider:
: him only as man.

Lay aside ell prejudice for or

that we had never heard of him,
and knew nothing about his rec
ord as a candidate for President
or any thing else. Let's study
the man a little just as he is to-
day. and as he was at the Balti-
more convention, from an i'm

would study a newcomer upon

The Proposed New Pc
Party.
Political

The call Tor a new political
party which has just been issued
makes it apparent to the world
that the split in the Republican
party is beyond all repare
during the present campaign.
Whether the proposed new
party is to draw to itself a ma
jority of the former Republican
party or whether it will carry off
into its separate organization
but a small percentage of the
membership of the old party is
not a material fact as far as the
future is concerned.
The main and all important
fact is that the wedge of divi-
sion of sentiment upon national
issues has done its work, and
the old organization is split in
two parts.
There is to be in the campaign
of 1912 two political organiza-
tons formed of voters of former
Republican affiliations and these
organizations are to be separate
in candidates, antagonistic in
purpose, hostile to each others
success at the ballot box, next
November.
This separation may be brief,
this antagonism but temaorary,
this hostility short lived, but
union can only ultimately be re-
stored through defeat of one or
both of the Republican factions.
He indeed would be an optim~
istic Republican WhG would be
confident Of success of his party
this campaign in view of the de-
feats of 1909, 1910, 1911, and
the now open division of the
militant forces of the G. o. p.
That some voters classed as
Democrats may become affiliated
with the proposed new party is
probably true, but the masses of
the Democrats and of the in
dependent voters of the country
seem so we'll satisfied with the
candidates and the platform put
forward by the Baltimore con-
vention that from present ap-
pearance the Democratic support
of the new party will be exceed
ingly weak in numbers.
1t behooves the Democratic
candidates and their managers of
the campaign, however, to be
very careful in speech and in
writing, in word and in action,
so that the unlocked for and
scarcely expected harmony with
in their own party receive no
sudden shock nor quickly dis
sipated.
The change in the political
situation and political conditions
have been remarkable this year
for their rapidity, their unex-
pected climaxes and unlocked for
consequences, and they may run
in this series of startling occur
rences even beyond the close of
the campaign in November

nothing unless we knew how
difficult it was for him to do thus
and so, what obstacles he had to
overcome, what opposition he
found when he undertook to do
the certain thing.
Now, pitted against Bryan at
Baltimore, when he arrived, was
strong organization of moneyed
men-men of influence in COM
merce and business and financial
affairs. These men understood
the value of organization, of
system. They are able to, and
do employ the best talent in the
country. They associate with
themselves the brainiest men
who can be had for a price.
Naturally these men are I'M
scrupulous. They know what
they want and when they want
it, and they let nothing short of
ozert violance stand in their way
Of accomplishment. They are
trained in the game and I'M
afraid.
Further, these men who were
opposing Bryan had lot of
prejudice against the Nebraskan
on their side. They fought with
that prejudice when it suited
their convenience. The battle
had been long waged. Do not
think for moment the oppo-
nents of Bryan went to Balti-
more without preparations, OF
: that the Skirmish began in that
city was the beginning of THEN

Policemen rushed up. and found
young man of eighteen, Alfred Hervo.
shrieking with pain, and rolling In
agony OH the ground. His face and
hands were covered with blood and
his clothes were burning. Two police
men put the fire out. put ilervo in a
cab. and took him to the nearest hos
pital. The other policemen found the
bomb. 1t had been made OF two metal
soap boxes tied together, and filed
With powder and nails. Hervo declared
thai he knew nothing about the bomb.
He was on his way to his work, saw
the thing lying on the pavement. and
kicked It off into the gutter. 1t broke
open. and wondering what the black
stuff in it WAS. Hervo lit match and
bent down to find out. An explosion
