Both are men who bear good
records and could be supported by
the entire Democratic party II the
"sore spots caused by the conven-
ton heal over.
The biggest man at the conven-
tion was W. J. Bryan and It looked
for a long time as though he
would again be the nominee as
he was engineering things to suit
himself. His desertion OF Champ
Clark, Missouri's favorite candidate
caused him many bitter enemies
in Missouri and will no doubt
cause the state TO 20 Republican In
November.
The outcome of the election de-
pends largely upon future develor
ments and Is not sign OF a Gel
tain Demosratic victory by any
means.
