Ideal about practical politics.
1t was stated at the headquarters OF
the Anti-Saloon League that W. J
Bryan's name was not on the list OF
speakers, though the opinion was ex-
lpressed that he might be invited to
take an active part in the convention.
When the list was originally made Up

the managers of the convention had
no reason to expect that he would be
able to attend. Now that he is retired

Must Take Stand.
Leaders of the National Anti-Saloon
League already have announced that
their organization will support no
party in the next Presidential cam
paign which does not come out on a
platform favoring national prohibi-
ton. As neither of the big parties is
likely to take such an advanced stand
on the liquor question, ii is not i'm
probable that they will take advant-
age OF the opportunity to launch ma
tional movement with Bryan and
Hobson at the head of it, Bryan and
Hobson are together on prohibition
and woman suffrage, but the latter is
more OF fighting man than tho
Commoner, and might have TO tone
down his war views little to harmon
ize with his colleague. However, with
prohibition as the big issue. the peace
might be subordinated to
meet the requirements.
Politicians do not think there is
much likelihood of Bryan attempting
to get the presidential nomination
from the democratic party. The prin-
cipal reason is that they do not be- |!
