Jennings Bryan, declaring in effect
that Col. Bryan had sold out to the
interests when he agreed to support
Davis following the nomination OF
Gov. Bryan. his brother, as the vice
presidential candidate.
To one Democrat, however, Senator
La Toilette paid tribute last night.
Senator Jim" Reed of Missouri. 1t
may be mentioned that Senator Reed
was an 'irreconcilable" in the SEN
ate who stood shoulder to shoulder
with Senator La Toilette in his op-
position to the League of Nations,
which the Democratic nominee for
President is now so strongly advocat-
ing. Senator Reed also has long
been an opponent Of the Bryan
brothers" Senator Reed called upon
Senator Ia Toilette during his stay
in Kansas City and took the Wiscon-
sin man for an automobile ride.
Kansas City did not give Senator
La Toilette the vocal welcome ac-

the Versailles treaty in accordance
with the more generous terms of the
armistice."
Senator La Toilette did not hesi-
tate to lambaste the Democratic
party, as well as the Republican. If
the Democrats have passed the word
to deal gently with the third ticket,
it has had no softening effect on the
head of that ticket and his followers
toward the Democrats.
No more caustic attack has been
made on the Democratic ticket than
was leveled by Frank p. Walsh, one
time Democrat, who presided at the

in their faces. He pledged a revision
of the system. so as to remove it's
control from the hands of private
rlanks in his program for agricul-
tural relief. for the first time out
lined in great detail.
Travelling through the West, the
question frequently crops up as to
Senator La Follette's physical condi
ton, his age, which is near 20. Can
he stand the strain of a campaign.
After weeks campaigning, he
shows strength. he shows his ability
to hold his audience with the fire and
magnetism he possessed in earlier
years.
1t is II years now since group of
weary reporters watched this same
Senator La Toilette hold the floor of
the United States Senate all night
long for IS hours and 45 minutes con-
secutively. the longest speech ever
delivered by any man in that body.
He was filibustering. and against a
banking bill. the so-called Aldrich-
Nreeland emergency currency bill, a
prototype of the present Federal re-
serve act. With the same vigor he is
again aSsailing the banking .n,eresls.
Still Fiery Speaker.
1t would be folly to say that Sen
ator La Toilette today could hold the
floor of the Senate for Is hours 1t
would be folly to deny that he does
not look much older than he did in
1909. But as he warmed to his speech
last night. his age fell away from
him. He was the same indominitable
fighter. Serious to degree. but with
now and then a flash of grim humor,
iaShing out in way that brought
laughter.
His strength is being jealously
guarded. A presidential campaign

man, no matter what his age. With
the Progressive nominee are his two
sons, Bob. jr.. and Phil La Toilette,
able lieutenants.
Bob. jr.. sits directly behind his
Iather while the Senator speaks.
His particular duty is to see that
Senator La Toilette does not wander
TOO far away in his vehemence from
ms written text. and also to keep
MN from lodging the radio instru-
| ment.
senator La Toilette brought a
lauSh from the crowd when he said:

No Train-End Speeches.
The Wisconsin Senator is making
no speeches from the tail-end of the
special car in which he is travelling.
RMS spares him some of the fatigue
incident to such trips
The farm relief program laid down
by Senator La Toilette contained
seven heads. among them being emer-
gen"y Legislation embodying the
principle of agricultural equality
laid down in the McNary- Haugen and
Norrts-Sinclair bills; the repeal Of the
ESch-CumminS railroad act and re-
ouction of freight rates. downward
revision of the tariff. farmer repre-
sentatton in the cabinet. Federal Re-
! serve Board, Interstate Commerce
commission and other boards, and a
sweeping investiga tion within the De-
partment of Agriculture and other
executive departments to locate and
remove every employe who owes his
position to the influence of the pack
crs. the railroads and other privileged
groups
In this connection Senator La Fol
lette recalled that Judge Kenyon Of
iowa, tormer Senator. had 'rout cd
out some 500 employees of the Depart
ment of Agriculture who were re-
ceivinS pay from Rockefeller"
File your teeth on that" shouted
! the Senator. 1t is to Judge Kenyon,
by the way, that the La Toilette sup
porters are fondly looking for a dec
iaratlon of support for the independ-
ent progressive ticket to aid the ticket
in Iowa.
Wants Treaty Revised,
Nor did Senator La Toilette forget
the great German Amo rican croup OF
voters IN this and nearby States
groups "hlch may change entirely the
results or the elections in these
states. He made his appeal to curb
war and declared for a revision O
