Tribune-Citizen:
"When tho country is livid with re
volt against industrial piracy in gov
ernmental affairs and when disrup
tion and dissolution have set in
against the great political party that
sold its soul to monopoly we hear
from the press of the country too lit
tle credit given to tho man of all men
responsible for things as they are.
"William Jennings Bryan, the man
of many battles and many outward
defeats, has reason to be the proudest
and happiest man in the United
States today. For he is now seeing
tho fruition of a' work that in the
earlier days of its undertaking was
hooted at, scored and mocked by
many of the forces that are today al
lied in the battle that he so ably
began.
"Mr. Bryan can not help but feel
flattered at tho almost universal ac
ceptance of the political religion to
which ho made undisputed sacrifices
to champion. Ho gave himself over
to the commands of tho fighting
hosts against tho giants of privilege
when there was small chance of suc
cess. The Tribune Citizen Is not now
and has never been among thoso who
have thought Mr. Bryan a candidate
for the presidency because he could
win. We have believed and still be
lieved that the Nebraskan went into
battle when he more than anyone
feared that defeat would meet the
cause for which he fought. We be
lieve that when ho accepted the nom
ination for the president he was fully
cognizant of the power of the enemy
and we beliovo that he was willing
if need be to go down to defeat as a
candidate if by so doing he. could
lead the masses against predatory
wealth in a good fight that in the
future would count for better things.
"And the fights he has made have
counted. They have counted mar
velously. Thoy have awakened a na
tion. They" havo smote the con
science of the people and they have
nvnnHPrl thft Hon nf American Indfi-
pendence to resent the invasion of in
dustrial tyranny until today the
fights he has made have placed vic
tory within the reach of other hands
than his.
"When, in 1896, the young thinker
and orator of Nebraska sounded the
alarm against the anarchy of money
and predatory wealth he brought
down upon his head the curses of
the monoy changers, the eminently
respectable thieves of high station,
the corruptionists in congress and
the captains of industry at the count
ing tables. But he was hailed by the
new spirit of America by the new
natipnalism of that day, if you please
as a savior. And the fight he
made, judged in the light of subse
quent events, was a1 wonderful fight.
His noteounded true. It reached
home. And while the power of tho
great combinations and the robbers
of public property sent him down to'
defeat the struggle brought with, it
its own reward in what was to come.
"So it was again in 1900, when
the struggle was renewed with even
greater intensity than before. Again
it took the herculean efforts of the
entrenched hogs of big business to
stem the tide that arose with re
newed Btrength against Hannalsm
and sleek standpattism. Outwardly
the battle was again lost. But that
the tide could not be stemmed until
the goal of the now movement was
achieved was signally demonstrated
1n tho next national election when
the democracy itself voted down a
candidate chosen by Wall Street as
the choice of the democratic party.
"No assertion of tho Nebraskan as
to the danger of the power of preda-
ILU1JT TVUU1WU IU AU1VUUUU JUDlllUllUUH
has given the proof of this danger
so well as tho history that waa made
in the campaigns of 1896, 1900 and
1908. Unbiased historians will re
cord, that Mr. Bryan was tho over
whelming choice of the American
people in three elections, but that
tho uso of money, coercion and in
timidation defeated their will. What
was suspected in 1896 was proved
in 1900 and what was proved in
1900 was made universal knowledge
in the choice of Judge Taft in 1908.
Never had the corporations so open
ly conducted a campaign, never had
they so openly posted notices in the
mills, the mines and the factories
that the man who voted against the
choice of tho financial bandits would
be thrown out of employment to face
hungry loved ones.
"But during all of the combats of
tho people againBt entrenched privi
lege the battle cry, 'Equal rights to
all; special privilege to none,' and
the question, 'Shall the people rule?'
have served their purpose well.
These have continued to speed to
the hearts of the people lon& after
the smoke of temporary struggle
cleared away. And in the year 1910
they are still tho slogans of the old
nationalism made new.
"And now the battering that was
done at the door of privilege is be
ginning to have its effect. The hinges
are beginning to weaken and the
panels are beginning to shake. Men
who, when the fight began, either
stood aBide idle or scoffed at the cru
saders have taken up the battering
rams themselves and the whole peo
ple are today making the assault at
the same citadel which repelled, the
attacks made before.
"It has been a long and a bitter
fight. The leader of the leaders has
been subjected to abuse such as lias
been showered on the head of no
other public man in the country's his
tory. But he stands vindicated. He
has reason to smile. His fight has
been won. And whether he shall
ever enjoy tho rewards from an ap
preciative people that are so often
delayed in the cause of reform or
whether he shall yet lead again when
triumph; is sure, he will at least
know that he has not fought in vain
and that the people who loved and
followed him havo not followed in
vain."
Slipped His Mind
A Perthshire farmer on his way
liome from market one day suddenly
remembered that he had forgotten
something, but what he could not
recall.
As he neared homo the conviction
increased and three times he stopped
Jiis horse and went carefully through
his pocket-book in the vain endeavor
to discover what he had missed. In
due courso he reached home and was
'met by his daughter, who looked at
him in surprise and asked:
"Why, father, what have you done
with mother?" M. A. P.

A GENEROUS GIFT
"You may say. what you llko
against young ministers, but I havo
nothing but praise for our young
pastor," the pompous Mr. Brown re
marked, as he passed out of tho
church. "Nothing but praise!"
"So I observed," dryly retorted tho
deacon who had passed the plate.
