Taft When asked to-day If he still
held TO that estimate. he replied
In estimating Wilson's plurality at
2.0oo. 900. was not counting on a third
party. That might reduce the plural
ity some. and vet not much because
many Republicans viii vote for Roose-
Welt who would not be willing to vote
for Democrat. and that viii largely
reduce Taft's vote TAFT will be the
contender for tho Roosevelt votes
not Wilson
Tn our platform said Mr. Brvan,
"the single term for the presidency
will attract much attention and also
the declaration tavorins direct pri-
marics. One or the best planks is that
declaring for popular election OF ma
tional committeeman. the committee
men TO begin service when elected.
This change viii prevent hold over
committeeman from organizing con
ventions."
Asked what he thought Of Colonel
Henry Wattersors prediction that
Colonel Roosevelts party would sue
coed. Mr. Bryan said:
'Mr. Watterson predictions have
not all come true. but If such a mis-
fortune as he predicts should over
take us. hope that the Lord will give
us strength to bear 1T with more
cheerfulness than 'Marse Henry
shows"
Mr.. Bryan said that while he
thought that either Governor Burke.
of North Dakota. or Senator Chamber
lain. of Oregon. would have brought
the Democrats more votes than Mar
shall. the Indiana Governor was n
powerful man on the stump and had
an excellent record.
