Of course, the Republicans are desperate over the coming into Indiana of Mr. Bryan. They know he is honest and able; they know that he has a strong hold upon the people; they know his influence for the ticket will bfe felt everywhere; and they know, too. that his sentiments have found lodgment in the minds of men and are being echoed in all directions for the good of the Democratic party. The attempt to discount what he should say by inspiring attacks upon him only shows that the Republican state central committee knew what his Influence would be and dreaded its effect upon the people. Democrats should begin to consider the Importance of getting out every vote on election day and also the importance of getting in the vote at the earliest posstble moment. Every Democrat who is able to be at the polls should be there as a worker and every legitimate means to Increase the party vote should be invoked. If Governor Durbin didn’t He awake at night when he schemed to increase the assessments on private property and reduce them on railroad, express, telegraph apd transportation companies, he must have employed someone else to do so. Such work cannot be accomplished in daylight, even though the summer days are long. The worst thing that I have ever •aid of Judge Parker is that he agrees with Roosevelt on the money question. But the great difference between the two men is this: On all important questions ’now before the country, Parker Is right and Roosevelt la wrong.—William Jennings Bryan.
