Soldiers and citizens in Canada howled
W. Jay Bryan down the other night when
he attempted to make speech. Of course
they did. And they were justified in this
most drastic and c:scourteous method of
expressing disapproval of this chautauqua
orator. Bryan was a leader Of Tie pacifist
movement AS member of the Wilson
cabinet he was a barnacle and hot-air
merchant. Now, having done all the harm
he can do as a pacifist, lie would undertake
to get in with the drift of the popular cur
