WILLIAM ]. BRYAN IS ! STILL COL, BUT NOT
 ! A'1DAMANT, } IS CLAIM
rIbune Writer Discusses Most Widely Talked of
 Leader

Hes the same old Wm. I. Bryan. pst turned 60; thirty years in poll zcs and still up to his kidnaping SS,cks, says Henry Hyde, in the Snieago Tribune. He's forever Saking off with the political per while the nurse is flirting Sith the policeman. In 96 he ab- quoted "l6 to l" from the Pops and Rade 1t his adopted off-spring. In f9 ilhe saved the Spanish American face treaty from defeat in congress.
 nd the next year used it as a spring
 pard to leap on Republican "imper-
 4lism.'
 "Now he is seeking to purloin
 fom President Wilson and the ad-
 illustration Democrats the peace
 seaty in whatever form it emerges an issue.
 Already he has kidnapped the li- 1. hor question from the Anti-Saloon eague. Who made America dry :?
 Thy, Bryan. of course. As a mat IT of fact, he probably had as little do with the actual percentage of { Prohibition as had Gov. Edward |. Awards of New Jersey--the league.
 bipartisan body, put it across. I Totes Off Li'l Brown Jug But now the little brown jug is ta- fbo by the constitution. Bryan has alked away with the child right un- 1 ar the noses of the leaguers. He { IS become the great progenitor and z Tender of anti-grog, and is all pri- ! kd to make rum howl at San Fran i Eco. On issues Bryan's penchant is ! aappropriate, not originate.
 1.-The "peerless one" appears to be { biting more enjoyment out of the < eesent situation than any other ' emocrat leader-or Republican, too, \ IT that matter. He is basking again N f publicity.
 | His opponents are whacking away \ him and he is coming back with \ Aunter wallops; the wave of ridicule !, ad condemnation that followed his i jsignation from the cabinet between < se first and second Lusitania notes \ Is rolled over.

the next four years," MT. Bryan said ."The song, Lead, Kindly Light, One Steps Enough for Me- applies to politics as well as religion.
 "A discussion of remote contingent cies is unwise for two reasons: Be- cause, first, you invite unnecessary controversy. It's like debating over the cut of a mans clothes when he's two miles away. When he's so far off the discussion is futile. And when he reaches you it is unneces- sary.
 "The second reason is that issues are always judged in connection with their environment; and without a knowledge of environment it is diff ficult to form an intelligent iudg- ment of issues. That is why I de- cline to answer hypothetical ques- tions."
 Old Loom Still Is Looming.
 "Well, then, what about the issues this year?"
 "They are looming up, and it is not only possible but necessary to deal with them."
 He expounded the peace treaty sit uation stressing it as the most prom inent issue ,and took up domestic questions.
 "The. most immediate domestic question:" he said, "is profiteering.
 of it becomes necessary to fix the rate of profit for merchandise the various legislatures ought to be em- powered to do it, just as they fix the rate of interest.
 A Touch of His Logic.
 "A merchants business is no more sacred than bankers.
 "If the money lender is permitted to charge only 6 or per cent. for the use of his money for year why should the manufacturer, wholesaler or merchant be allowed to charge 50 to 100 or even 200 per cent. on prop erty that he turns over two or three times year?

swarming with visitors and small ar mics of newspaper correspondents. He holds levees in his hotel suite. The limelight is exhilarating Bryan is having the time of his life. The years have dealt with him kindly. The frieze around his dome is as luXurient and almost as raven as ever, his eyes as flashing. his mouth as mobile and fluent. Tissue, Ia little of it, has come with pros peritv; the lean and hungry look of the Cassius of '96 has given way to a hint of sickness; the lines in his lace are deeper, but he's in the pink physically, and a winter in Florida has given him almost beauty parlor complexion. He looks like the same old eagle, but with facial massage.
 When Does Ravishing Begin.
 He says he is not candidate for president, but if Vox Pop clamors, that makes a different set of cir cumstances, an observation echoed by McAdoo, Edwards, Hoover and others. A habit of running for pres ident is not broken too easily, and in Washington they are always compar- ing Bryan to the statue of General Sherman opposite the treasury-it is always looking toward the White House-but that's all.
 The old voice is still there with all it's pristine sorority. The diapason rolls out the old line of ideas and they sound almost like newly dscov- cred verities.
 Truth is truth" fright is right, Justice always triumphs in the end"
 Rules Realm of Platitudes.
 The voice still transmutes them into profundities. He makes the word democracy" sound like tone poem. He still talks like Bach fu- que on the cathedral organ. Leaving Bryan after a twenty minute talk one feels like a skeptic coming out of church, uplifted by the music but unconvinced.
 'He would be daring man who would attempt to state the issues of

Simple Way To
 End Dandruff

There is one sure way that has never failed to remove dandrutf at once. and that is to dissolve It, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces oi plain, common liquid arvon from any drug store (this is all you will need), apply it at night when retlr- ing; use enough to molsten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. ', By morning, most if not all of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications WI completely dissolve and entirely de- stroy every single sign and trace of it, no mateer how much you may have.
 You will find all itching and dig ging of the, scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lus- trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel hundred times bet ter.

not know to what extent the parties will 'grapple with this, but it is a problem of government ownership versus private monopoly. This issue is involved in every natural monop- oly. That is, wherever competition is impossible and, therefore. a mon- i opoly is necessary, it must be a government monopoly for all the people, andnot q private monopoly administered for the interest of a few.
 ! Talk and Talk; Then. Maybe, Act.
 "Just now we need machinery for the investigation of all industrial disputes-not arbitration, but inves- tiGation- and investigation before the dispute reaches point where strike or lockout is threatened.
 Again, as a means of reaching a solution in all problems we need a national bulletin-not newspaper, but a bulletin furnished at nominal cost to all who desire it, such bulle- tin to give the facts in regard to all i important legislation or administra- tive action, with editorial space for discussion of all government issues, the editorials to be furnished by rep resentatives of the various parties, chosen by the parties.
 ! "Then, too, the initiative and ref erendum perfect government, and are the most effective means of insur- ing the rule of the people" i 0. Boy, the Limelight. l At San Francisco, Bryan will be there with bells on, just as he was at Baltimore, when he dished Champ Clark's ambitions. Senator Hitch cock may prevent his going as del egate from Nebra ska, but the peer less one will be on deck just as usual and he'll get his hearing.
 ! As to the treaty and the aspects. it may finally assume as an issue, 1t is one horrible nightmare of mix up. The parties are "pled,' and 1t will take time to sort them out.
 The battle between Bryan and the Wilson Democrats will be accentuat- ed by the row over rum, and although the administration is expected by the wise ones to be strong enough to knock Bryan into a cooked hat once again, still that will leave rancor and animosities, with Bryan sulking in his tent as in 1904 after the Parker nomination.
 The politicians are still trying to figure out the long game in Bryan's jump into the treaty situation and 1 his shout that minority has no right to obstruct, even if 1t be an administration minority.
 The Kidnapping King. 1 Right now it looms up stronger than ever as Kidnapping expedition. If the treaty with the reservations had been ratified, Bryan would have been able to shout. "I did it." Then he would have sought to have the country divided into five districts and America's delegates to the league of nations elected directly by the "pee pull"
 He has been urging elected dele gates. Incidentally, it would have given him a chance to run for one of the five places. i With the treaty unratified because majority crossed few cts" and dotted few "i's," it still leaves Bryan free to sally forth at San Francisco for plank for "safe- guarded" league of nations and for an amendment that will enable ma jority to make peace as we'll as de- clare war.
 He's got plenty up his sleeve to make the convention one joyful, re- verberant discord.

encouraged to produce more live

this administration has been to break
