"Then when Senator Martin of Virginia was. suggested as a candidate he was at tacked aa a Bailey democrat because he was not' a radical. The fact Is that since. Mr. Bryan came to Washington he has been organising everything fanatical in the party 'to fight everything based on the old and settled principles of the party. "It was not Mr. Bryan's business to come to Washington and Interfere with the work committed by the people In their elections. lie naa no right to stir up passion and strife In his party.

Yet, I will say this, that If the extreme policies advocated by the radicals are to dominate the democratic party and that It la to stand for the substitution of dire.-! demeuiacy for the .government provided for In the constitution, If It is to advocate the Initiative, and. referendum, right of recall and the other Ideas favored by fanaticism, Mr. Bryan will be the logical candidate of the party. for president, and is bound to be nominated next year. "These policies are his. and It la onlv right to admit he haa fought for them, taught them and Impressed them on the people. 1( the actual form of our govern ment Is to be changed and direct democ racy Is to take' the place" of our present system of representative government, Mr. Bryan, la. hoiestly- entitled to the leader ship."
