The real issues for the Presidential election do

The compromise action on the treaty as demanded
would strip away the mask behind which every proneer
the United States is hiding the pretext that there
can be no normal conditions until the treaty is signed.
America is in twilight zone, No Mans Land in
which snping parties Of pronteers prow at will. This
is the situation from the peoples side.
There is also a politicians side It is embodied in
this sentence from Bryan's Jackson Day speech
I'VE are confronted with the organization Of new
parties the theory that the old parties do not the
issues that have arisen"
The plain meaning OF this that II the Senate lead

Bryan a third party may be formed.
In the resulting confusion the election might easily be
balanced that 1t would be thrown into the House of

The great body OF the people want Americas in
