GOLFERS NATIONAL WEEKLY

We elsewhere describe the
Collier Plant. A word now about
the Weekly and its policy.
1t is at once the peril and the
shame of the hour, that the
American Press has so widely
become venal.

But thank God, all over the
land yet remain journals whose
editors, like Fabius of old neither
the lure of gold can seduce nor
the threat of power deter.
Chief among these is'Collier's
National Weekly, a bold and elo'
ouent advocate Of the rights OF
the people against the marauding
Trusts; journal that stands for
civic righteousness in every de-
partment of the government,
municipal, state and national.
Because it is fair, fearless and
lust in it's non-partisan views, it
has come to be a great National

Rodenburg roasted Bryan and said
that for l6 years he has been de-

BY DEMOCRATS WHEN RATIFICATION
MEETING IS HELD LAST Evening"

Bryan dominated the convention
from the start, and but for the
poor management of Clark's floor
leaders, the speaker of the house
of representatives would have Sc
cured the presidential nomination.
Clarks alliance with the Ryan-Mur-
phy-Taggart interests antagonized
the convention and finally resulted
in the nomination being lost. In
addition the Clark campaign leaders
started the convention by breaking
with Bryan and the antagonism at
the start was never wiped out dur
ing the entire session.
John F. Kunze OF Goldfield. who
attended the democratic meeting as

the scenes and INDUCED in several
