just yesterday saying. The Ameri-
can people are too generous to permit
me to serve them at a sacrifice. "
He is now saying that II will not
accept increase of salary" MIR.
Bryan is hearing from the "Hill
Country" MIR. Bryan, if we are
not in error, began his political car
eer as Populist, or Peoples Party
candidate. Among the so called
common people, the Populist move
ment was protest against that policy
OF the Republican party which was in
effect creating the gigantic financial,
commercial and industrial organiza-
tons and combinations which. wheth-
er good or bad. have been the SUBJ
jects of legislation intended to con-
troll less Objectionable and utterly de-
stroy the more unworthy or least fit
ted to have place among American
establishments. Populism was not
bad. 1t was the cry of people in
dlspair of reform in the Republican
ranks and OF those who had lost hope
in the ultimate success of the Demo-
cratic party. In the Nebraska COM
bine OF Democrats and Popuists, Mr..
Bryan posing as Democrat, and
teaching Populism, was elected to
congress and while serving in the
lower branch Of the National Assem-
bly, continued to be the advocate of
the Populiss theories as he interpret
ed them, all the while claiming to be
Democrat, as we think for the reas-
on that the Populist did not give
promise Of becoming a great National
party. He saw the winning trend Of
the cheap money doctrine as the free
silver arm OF that straw giant was held
up By the rich silver miners of the
west and the Fiat money arm was
supported by an army Of hungry spec
ulators and a host OF men in and out
Of all the fields OF industry who really
believed that our governnen. could
put into a worthless piece OF paper
imperishable value BY running it
through a printing press no promise
thereon 10 redeem in ANYTHING was
necessary. Mr.. Bryan did not stop
to think ,ha, God Almighty had never
done anything Of the sort.
Mr., Bryan must lecture because ne
is, or will be if he does not, loosing
the ten thousand per. tina, he has
beel saving for the las, seventeen
years. Think OF the man three times
defeated in those seventeen years,
think Ci the enormous expense OF the
three campaigns in whirh he has been
the candidate Of the Democracy.
and tel! me ye worshippers of this
colossus, who, starting with nothing
but plaglarized crown OF thorns
and cross Of gold, has saved one
hundred and seventy thousand dol
lars in the time required for three
defeats. ah there sir tell me. and wne
has been bened,,ed
| No, an invention OF any sor, to his
credit, and he has never written or
said ANYTHING that any man living can
remember. or cares 10 remember.

No sir, he prefers Crape /sift. a
stuff squeezed out OF the waste, infer

the pity OF such cheap no,orie,y.
