BRYAN WOULD NOT HURT
MRS. TAFT'S FEELINGS

ographer at Baltimore. He said today /:
AS dictated to me originally by Mr..
Bryan. the resolution contained a
caustic reference to the Chicago con-
vention steam roller and denunciation
of Taft as the beneficiary OF such
methods and as the recipient of ia
vors from the interests When he
entered the hall that night with the
resolution, Bryan was advised OF the
presence of Mrs. Taft in the hall. Dis
liking to do anything offensive to the
first lady of the land, Bryan cut out all
reference to the president when he
presented the resolution. He after
wards told me he eliminated this part
OF his resolution because Mrs. Taft
occupied box and he didn't desire to
say anything that might tend to hunil-
late her."

overwhelm the enemy and sweep him
from the field in utter route by a
brilliant dash aad then leave the reg
lular soldier TO hold the field against
tne return Of the enemy which in
many cases is difficult and even inn
possible.
But what general when going TO
make a charge would send out and get
a strange commander 10 lead his sol
diers to the onset? Would he not
rather lead his men disciplined under
him. who understood his method Of
command than entrust so important a
function to stranger. Sometimes Il
is necessary TO lay seige, and sap and
mine the strongly entrenched enemy
and over come him by constant ham
mering and drive him from his
trenches by sheer dogged and irresist-
able perseverance. Pickett's famous
charge at Gettysburg was led by a
commander whose men were trained
to obey orders and who would at the
word OF command follow him into the
jaws of death. SO it seems that the
regular pastor ought to have a trained
force that would storm the heights at
word and who would bring victory
wherever organized effort could pos
sibly prevail.
