Bryan discussed "The Problems of Government" Mr. Bryan prefaced his ad dress, which waa of tw hours' duration. with a denial that he will again seek to be come the national standard bearer et the democratic party, hit denial being contained in th following phrase : "I hop you will glv me credit with pos tering a higher ambition than merely wanting the office of the president of the United States. I am too democratic to covet a ambition that only a few In one genera tion can shsre. I prefer the honor ot being a private citizen as an honor greater than that of a king." - , Throughout his discussion of the momen tous problems now engaging the attention et the two great political parties, Mr. Bryan occasionally tapped a vein of quiet humor that generated smiles on many counte nances. "You will recall," he said, "that th re publican hav had two .telling chance at me, and on thia occasion I would seek one at them.

Reference was made to the Philippine question and the conduct ot the American soldiery In suppressing the Insurrection. He denounced Imperialism at gredt length, and then reverting to the currency ques tion proclaimed himself as devout an apostle ot free silver as aver. He further de nounced what be termed the plutocracy of wealth, the tariff and Injunctions and said that th only possibility of suppressing anarchy rested in th education of th pea pi to lov their government. Mr. Bryan stated with marked mphagls mat it h imd iu puwvr eveiy arllule manufactured by trusts would b placed on the free list, although he sincerely doubted If thl strenuous and tragical meas ure would wholly frustrate the trust.
