the government by a few great cor
porations? Was all their brave talk only
"talk," and did they "become meek
and submissive under tho hypnotic
influence of their master's voice.?
"When we realize what organized
billions can do, and are doing; when
we see that the shafts of right and
justice, of reason and logic, are im
potent when hurled against those
gold-armored soldiers, it is almost
discouraging;
And yet, at this hour whenhonest
government seems most distant,
when the principles of Jefferson are
without a friend" in power, when
greedy trusts hold eighty-odd mil
lions of people by the throat, we aro
more than ever devoted to the cause
of the many weak against the power
ful few; more than ever devoted to
the statesman, the pure citizen and
lovable gentleman, W. J. Bryan.
Columbia (S. C.) State.
Greater Than Ever
Mr. Bryan will not probably be a
candidate for office again. He does
not seek office for either fame or
salary, and unless Nebraska calls
him to office he has closed his po
litical career.. It has been like no
other career in ours or in any land.
No other man ever grew greater un
der constant defeat. No other man
with two national defeats on his
shoulders was ever welcomed by
kings and potentates as the repre
sentative of his country. The old
world hailed Mr. Bryan as the typi
cal American.
Like Henry Clay, he will never
reach the presidency, but he has
mode a permanent impression on our
politics. He has forced reforms up
on the victorious party and has com
pelled it to explain and deny its
alliance with the trusts. He has
made it discreditable to be dishonest
In politics, and his terrific words have
made predatory wealth shiver.
Tf Mr. Bryan becomes a senator
he will have a great opportunity to
press reforms.
All the reforms that Mr. Roosevelt
has attempted were suggested by Mr.
Bryan and openly adopted ,xy Mr.
Roosevelt. He has purified politics
as God purifies the sea, by .constant
agitation.
This defeat has not lessened the
regard of the American people for
the foremost private citizen. Mr
Bryan is greater than ever before.
Atlanta Georgian.
THE EDGE OP DISAPPOINTMENT
The only balm for the kc-n dis
appointment we feel over the elec
tion is in the fact that we made a
good fight, we kept the faith and the
result in Iowa shows the effect of
our work.
The reduction of the republican
majority in the face of a landslide is
an accomplishment of which any
newspaper could be proud. We have
received hundreds of congratulations
and acknowledgments from demo
crats all over Iowa who are kind
enough to say that the change in
Jowa is due to the Tribune more
than to any other agency.
However, wo are willing to fore
go any personal gratulation if there
by the victory could have been won
for that superb leader of the demo
cratic battalions in national conflict.
The defeat of Bryan is the saddest
blow that ever crushed the hopes of
man in a republic.
The defeat is not Bryan's. No man
can defeat him. He is invincible.
The defeat is one that affects the re
public. Tho people are the losers.
Bryan can go on unfa' on with his
life's work of good, but the republic
is in danger. The defeat of the elec
torate by unfair means will sooner
or later wreck any government on
earth.
It is idle to speculate on what
might have been. We can expect
half-hearted supporters of Mr. Bryan
to indulge in post-mortem specula
tion. They will point out that if
Johnson had been nominated the de
mocracy would have won. We deny
it; No man in the republic could
have beaten Bryan before the people
He is their idol. Parker afforded
evidence of the difference between
the so-called conservative candidate
and the radical candidate. Bryan
was the man, but the conditions were
not right.
Taft will give the American peo
ple an administration of indifference.
He will seek the line of least re
sistance. . He will not harm a single
trust. He is eminently safe and sane.
He will fasten the grip of the cor
porations yet more firmly on the
people and add years to the struggle
