Bryan should be elected president
Senator Beveridge clinched one of the
greatest thirty minute speeches ever de
livered in this city by stating that no
individual or coriKmition over discharg
ed a tried and true servant who made
good without cause and placed in his
position another untried inexperienced
servant who could only claim that he
could do better The Republican party
with a brief interval to which oven the
Democracy cminot point with satisfying
pride has made good in America for
forty years There is no good and
cient reason why Democracy should
now be given its position at the helm of
state simply because the Democrats
claim they can do betterand in the face
of the fact that many of their leaders
theories in the past have been abandon
ed and cast aside by themselves and
further that their present theories and
plans arc for the most part untried and
sentimental while the Republicans pro
mise a continuance of the known and
approved policies of President Roose
velt
With a godspeed tho senator hoped
the voters would remember their famil
ies themselves and their country at the
polls in November intimating clearly
where their votes should go to accomp
lish their best good
The senator answered questions giv
ing good matrimonial advice to our en
thusiastic young friend Frank Colfer
who wanted to know
