along 3O-called progressive lines so

launched in New York by Judge II.
c. Roper, David City, Neb., who has
established headquarters at the Ho-
tel Endicott.
Judge Roper. who has come to
convert New York to Organism, de-
clared he had credentials from Will
liam Jennings and his brother to
speak for them.
Charles w. Bryan is said to have
been more active than his brother
in the movement. Judge Roper de-
clared that for twenty-five years
Charles w. Bryan had kept card
index of the right kind of DemoCra-
tic leaders, so that these can be APP
preached with the minimum of diff
ficulty in an effort to get them to
support the Bryan theories.
The card index system, he de-
ciared, WAS now being worked to
its limit, and soon every Simon
pure" Democratic leader in the
country would be reached and Mr..
Bryan's claims as to the leadership
Of the party put before him.
The real Bryan progressive move
ment for the reorganization of the
party is to be put forward in earn
est March IS, the anniversary of
William J. Bryan's birth.
That day the peerless leader"
will be 81 years old, and the mo-
mentous event is to be celebrated
by dinners throughout the country.
Charles w. Bryan has not al
ways been given the credit which
he deserves for his organizing abili-
ty." said Judge Roper. I'm this
he is a master genius. The sequel
of the 1904 disaster was the 1908
Bryan control at Denver. Begin
ming almost at once after the party's
defeat in 1904, the organs under
took the reorganization of the par
tvs rank and file. In this Charles
w. Bryan took leading part"

COL. "MARSE HENRY"
ON SHAKESPEARE,
The Colonel Refuses to Believe Thai
Shakespeare Wrote Those Plays

To The New York Herald: The
man who can believe that William
Shakespeare of Stratford on Avon
wrote the dramas that stand in his
name could believe that Benedict
Arnold wrote the Declaration Of In
dependence and Herbert Spencer
the novels of Dickens.
OF William Shakespeare we know
that he came to London when Is or
- years os age. held horses in the
alley about the theatre. got into
the management after while,
prospered, and when 40 years old or
thereabout, having acquired a COM
potency, returned to Stanford.
where for twelve years longer he liv
ed comfortably on the usufruct of
usance of his memory without writ
ing line.
Five of his signatures have been
discovered. They show him D have
been an illiterate. That Ben John
sen called him Sweet Will" mere
iy attests that he was @ good fell
low. popular among his associates.
Who wrote the plays? 1t will
never be surely known The Ba-
CONAN theory is preposterous. My
guess is that Marlowe may have
written them. He stands the only
writer for the stage of the period
who rose to the so-calied Shake
spearian altitude. Fie was not kill
ed in the tavern brawl. He escaped
20 the Continent. There he wrote
and thence he sent the plays to his
friend Shakespeare to be produced.
This is merely surmise, but plau-
sible surmrise. But he was a play
actor and the player folk swear by
him. He was an Englishman and
England stands by him. Henry
James, quoted by the New York
Herald, was right. But he had not
the courage of his conviction.

In addition to taking action on

Mr.. Newman, who has just re-

said he believed the proposed reduc-
ton would receive the hearty sup
port of land owners and tenants.
He declared there was no intention
Of any attempt to force any reduc-
ton on the hurley tobacco growers.
But an effort would be made to
create a movement for at least the
so per cent reduction in the crop
! this year. Nor is il the associa-
TONS plan, he said, to request the
small growers to make any reduc-
tions.
MANY farmers grow only two
to five acres of tobacco, and that is
generally grown on land that has
been rotated with other crops or
has been reclaimed from briar patch
Or pawpaw thicket This sort
OF land. said Mr.. Newman, makes
the finest grade of tobacco and the
quality is not sufficient to effect the
market"
