BILLY SUNDAY May BACK
W.. BRYAN FOR President

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. A.
Not the least interesting story
now current is one to the effect
that IL Mr.. Bryan succeeds in max
ing prohibition a leading, or the
leading, issue in 1920, and gets a
presidential nomination with that
issue in his platform, Billy Sun
day will take the stump for him.
That would make, all will con-
cede, a lively combination.
The two men are friends. They
admire each other. Mr.. Bryan re-
CARDS Mr.. Sunday as a great in
fluence for good in the field of
morals and religion. and Mr.. Sun
day regards Mr.. Bryan as a great
influence for good in the field of
morals and politics.
Mr.. Sunday never has offered
the public advice on economic
problems. What his views are on
the tariff, the trusts, the currency,
or a merchant marine is not
known. Neither has he taken the
public into his confidence on such
problems as Imperialism and pre-
paredness.

E. f.. MCKENZIE, is a native of
Indiana; lived with his parents in
louisville, Boon county, where he
attended school until the age of 10
years. He afterward devoted sew
feral years to the carpenter and
builders trade in the middle west,
following that pursuit during the
greater part of his life, up to the
past ten years. He arrived in Ia
coma in November, 1888, coming
to this city a comparative strang-
err. The first year he was en-
ployed as a journeyman carpenter
and builder, and later he began
contracting and building on his
own account, as the senior partner
of the firm of Mckenzie G. Ed
wards, his associate in business
being w. r. Edwards, who accom-
panied him to the Northwest and
who had previously been connected
with him in building operations
in Eureka, Kansas. The firm met
with substantial success from the
beginning and many of Tacoma's
