MIR. Bryan and Labor


WIHEN the Commoner appeared before the
w House Interstate Commerce Committee
and announced that the railroads should not
De returned TO private management, adding
TO that statement the declaration that even
the Plumb plan preferable to the old
system, he took position which must COM
mand more and more attention as the policies
of the government and the politics OF the
nation shape themselves during the coming
year.
II has been common habit Of certain in
terests TO wave MIR. Bryan aside as A factor
of no moment, as man three times defeated
for the presidency, a man whose radicalism
has repeatedly been repudiated and as man
to whom the nation dared not intrust the
power OF administration. But he is not to
be dismissed in this contemptuous fashion.
He is not to be scofed out of the political
arena or silenced by sneers. He has been
lar TOO active, far too honest, far too able
IN the years that have passed, TO be ignored
in the years that are to come.
1t is easily conceivable that Mr.. Bryan by
becoming the accepted champion of the rad-
cal labor program, will become mighty fac
tor in the government OF the future whether
or not he ever again holds Office 1t is con
ceivable that he will go into the next Demo
cratic National Convention with an unalter-
able demand that plank be written into the
party platform committing the Democracy OF
the nation TO the Plumb plan or the Bryan
plan, or TO some other scheme OF industrial
naturalization.
If he should accomplish this. in spite OF
the opposition to such leadership as Presi-
dent Wilson FOR the time being represents
in American life. he would be the logical can
didate TO run on that platform. There would
doubtless be no other pre-eminent Democrat
in the nation who would accept the Demo
cratic nomination upon such terms. Ger
tainiy there is none in sight who might
be placed at the head OF the ticket
The answer offered to such a suggestion
as that, is that the Democratic party would
SIMPLY invite overwhelming defeat by sur
rendering TO this new type OF Bryanism 1t
Is even declared that to yield TO the radical
plans OF labor at this time would be party
suicide-the same declaration it might be
added incidentally, which was made when
Tree silver was the slogan OF the party
But when it is remembered that there are
more than 100000 men affiliated with
labor organizations in this country it is by
no means certain that Bryan would be de-
feated. IL he could command the overghelm-
ing support OF that vast multitude of voters
ne would al least make the outcome an OK
tremely doubtful proposition.

Curious idea some Prohihitionists have OF

the conclusions Of actual experience and of
