Free Press.
William J. Bryan can be indicted
on dozen counts, either one of which
should be sufficient to eteTnally damn
him in theestimation of every liber-
ty-loving, right-thinking American;
but our space is valuable and we will
i only mention two or three.
William j. Bryan is the author and
originator, the sponsor and dispenser
of many of the crazy bolshevik ideas,
plans and Vaccinations which are
the curse of this country and nearly
every other nation on the globe today.
William j. Bryan went to the Balti-
more convention as a Champ Clark
delegate, and Immediately he was
seated began knitting his candidate
in the back Regardless of our prefer
erence inthat convention and regard
less of the outcome, it cannot be sue
cessfully denied that the part of
Bryan at Baltimore was that of the
traitor, the thug, the trickster and
the scallawag.
The German opinion that Ameri
cans would not fight and that we
would suffer any indignity rather than
fight-that we were nation of mug
wumps and molly-coddles and could
not be made to fight-owes it's origin
and PRONUNCIATION, its depth and dis
semination in large measure to this
blatant blatherskite who both in this
SHINE, unfounded and defamatory
sentiments abroad.
In our opinion, our first trouble
with Germany, possibly our part of
the war itself, is largely attributable
to Bryan and others of the Bryan
stripe.
rotary of State had been a full-siZed
man "a broad-gauged red-blooded
Americana he had dealt with rea-
son and firmnesS instead of servility
and evasion-if he had not already
created the opinion that America
could be trampled upon at will
there might have been no sinking of
the Lusitania and the flood of hor-
rors that came in it's wake
Bill Bryan is fake, a fraud and
four-flousher. And he has Editor
Rucker fooled just as he had us some
years ago.-Walton Tribune.
Men in high cfhce make mistakes
because they are human. Bryan dealt !
too gently wltn the German problems
at time when dt cision and firmness
might have rclG This country out of 4
the war at least for a while He
thought he was avoiding war by a
placating attitude, but was making it |
all the more impossible to avoid. He |
seemed unconscious of that.
Bryan has been in the forefront
in the United States quarter of a
century. Four times he has been his
party's choice as a leader for the
and that party was our
party. That distinction would seem
to demand for him a better name
than blatant blatherskite."

the other day. The man who said il

he is wrong. He was always wrong
President Wilson is the one great
figure at the peace deliberations. We
say great,-possibly it would be bet

1t does not take an over keen mind

those who will take time to watch
the process of peace making will
find that he is in every step taken,

pal move in any direction and he
will be in the final disposition of

remain alive till the end comes.

Paris, March 22.-Because of
President Wilson's desire to at
tend the sessions of both the
nations commission today's
peace conference program has
been reversed. The council met
at eleven O'Clock this morning

attention to this because politicians
