and Geo. Fred Williams
Seem to Know.
MIR. BRYAN is A PROGRESSIVE
fspecial to The Herald

NOpecldl 10 ne 1eTdlu.)
Washington, d. c., April e.
There is no denying the fact that
there are millions of Democrats in
the United States who love william
j. Bryan and have the highest re-
gard for him politically and person
ally. There also is no denying the
fact that he Is entitled to the
friendship of all these citizens of
the United States. His opinion goes
very far with them because they
believe honestly, and have reason
for their belief, that he is an un-
selfish patriot who has worked con-
sistently for the good of the people
of this country. There are thous-
ands and hundreds of thousands of
men in this country who are unset
ening for some suggestion from
Colonel Bryan as to who he favors
as the next nominee for the Demo-
cratic party for the Presidency. He
has never announced himself in so
many words and thousands are
still hungesing to hear from him
because they believe in his sagacity
and his Democracy and are willing
to follow him to any extent to NOM
mate the man that he favors.
While Colonel Bryan has not yet
come out in so many words and
announced his choice of the man
who should be nominated for the
Presidency at the convention in
Baltimore on the 25th of next June,
nevertheless he has indicated very
clearly where he stands. Every
Democrat in this country knows
that Colonel Bryan is a progressive
Democrat, and the vast majority of
Democrats and citizens of this
country agree with that progressive
idea of his. 1t Is a significant fact
that since the dinner that was given
to Mr.. Bryan in his homeJ city of
Lincoln, Nebraska, on the occasion
of his fiftieth birthday, that.two' of
his most intimate friends, men who
had stood by him to the utter ex-
clusion of all other men, should go
home to their native States and i'm
mediately announce the fact that
they were for the Honorable Champ
Clark for the nomination for the
Presidency.
All Democrats in this country
will realize how significant is this
fact when | mention the names of
Senator-elect Ollie NJ. James, of
Kentucky, and George Fred Will
liams, Of Massachusetts,, as the two
men who are intimate friends of
Colonel Bryan who Immediately,
upon their return from this Bryan
birthday dinner to their native
States, announced that they were
for the Honorable Champ Clark
for the Presidency. Whether or
not these two intimate friends had
a silent whisper from their erst-
while chief and Democratic leader
in this country, Colonel William J.
Bryan, deponent sayeth not, but 1t
looks very significant, and If the
readers of this poor. correspondence
will take the tip of an old fashioned |
newspaper correspondent, who has
been in contact with politicians all |
his life, they will come to the con-
as he has, that Mr.. Bryan's
choice for President is the Honor
able Champ Clark.

1t looks like the Society of Equi-
ty is getting little too near poll
tics when it gets mixed up with the
tariff tax on sugar, as being discuss
ed in Congress. Secretary Tubs,
of the Wisconsin State Society of
Equity, has issued an appeal to
Equity members everywhere, "in
behalf of the beet growers of Wis
consin, against a reduction in the
tariff, which would wipe out the
rapidly growing beet sugar indus
try in America" Wonder If Sec
rotary Tubbs ever considered the
fact that while thousands grow
sugar beets, there are millions who
use sugar, which would be reduced
in price If the tariff tax was re-
moved? Loyal Equity members ev-
erywhere should not allow this po-
litical question to be injected into
their order.
