APPROVES BREAK
WITH HARVEY

LINCOLN, Feb. 1.-Further evidence
that Bryan will support Wilson's can
didacy was seen today in a Commoner
editorial in which Bryan sides with
Wilson in Wilson's controversy with
Col. Harvey, the editor of Harper's.
The editorial says: "If the friends
of Col. Harvey succeed in establishing
the doctrine that the candidate has not
the right to shake off a discredited
supporter, then Wall street will be in
a position to drive all the progressive
candidates from the field
"It will be only necessary to divide
the most odorous representatives of
wealth among the blacklist
ed candidates and start them eulogiz-
ing the victims of conspiracy.
While Governor Wilson may not be
most available candidate for presi-
dency, it will take more than the run
with Harvey to put him out of the run
