Declares Democrats More United than
They Have Ever Been.
St. Joseph, Mo., Aug. 14. William
J. Bryan, In addressing a Democratic
cn.u heie, said tho campaign of 1908

bor question Mr. Bryan reviewed un

"The present prosperity of the Unit
ed States ionics Irom two somcus,"
ho said. "The Increased volume of
money and the era, of unpreeeilentod
good crops."
