Would Honor State By
Making Bryan Delegate

mississippi could cover herself
with no more honor or glory than to
send William Jennings Bryan to the
st. Louis Democratic convention as
the head of the delegation from the
Magnolia State.
mississippi gave Bryan a majority
at every precinct in the state when
he was candidate for President. No
other state in the Union did that"
This is the view of Dr. j. d. Donald,
of this city, who will be one of the
delegates from Forrest county to the
state Democratic convention to be held
in Jackson within a few days.
DR.. Donald, in an interview given
today, stated why he had no hesitan-
cy in placing Bryan's name in nomi-
nation at the Jackson convention, as
delegate at large from Mississippi.
when first suggested Mississippi's
|electing Bryan as a delegate at large
from this state, had no thought or
purpose of becoming a delegate to the
state conventio," Dr. Donald said. q

a more serious light Does the Demo
cratic party of the nation need Bryan?
If so, should Nebraska say to the par
ty, You shall not have him.?
Bryan has practically shaped the
policy of the party for 20 years. He
has been the unchallenged leader and
the true interpreter of the teachings
|of Jefferson. The signs of the times
certainly indicate that the real true
leadership never was more needed
than now, and party success this year
depends more on sound platform than
upon the present uncertain attitude
