one at Chicago, in 1896. which gave Bryan
his first nomination. He is ST. Louis
lawyer and politician. has served as
speaker of the state legislature and has
been an orator in every national campaign
for the last thirty-seven years. He bears
the rank of colonel in the Missouri Ma

Two of the largest halls in the world
will be used for this years conventions.
Neither party will be confronted by the

The big republican show of this year
will be held in Chicaso's Coliseum, the
building especially erected in 1896 for the
convention which Bryan captured with his
famous ''cross of gold and crown of
thorns' speech. At that time it was said
to contain the largest hall under one roof
in all the world. With its capacity OF
$4,000. il still comes pretty close to this
record. Its floor space covers five and a
half acres. or 2S5,OO0 square feet. The
great platform at the end of it will be ar
ranged to seat 800 men, including the ma
