WHAT BRYAN SAID

When He Was Free to Speak Plainly Concerning Parker. Fr'ENDG CF FINANCIAL INTERESTS In Europe and America Dictated His Nomination—The Parker Candidacy Found Its Origin in Wall Street — The Integrity of the Supreme Court Would Be Menaced by His Election. Mr. Bryan's participation in the present campaign is occasioned simply and solely by a desire to preserve his party regularity. Mr. Bryan knows the truth of what Mr. John B. Stoll, chief among the Indiana reorganizers, has declared in a public statement, namely, that a victory for Parker is a defeat for Bryan and a defeat for Parker is a victory for Bryan. In the speeches Mr. Bryan has delivered in Indiana he has said enough to give the impression that he is supporting the ticket, and not enough to c avince any follower of his that he ought to do so. As.evidence of Mr. Frys '••> r 'al attitude toward the Parker ticket t'.e following extract from Mr. 8.-;-t'.'.'a- piper. “The Commoner,'’ is p: •

Amen ca were announcing coulidentiy that u man had been found who would beat Theoilme Roosevelt—a man by the name of Darker, a protege and friend of David B. ll.ll—and that sufficient money would be spent" to corrupt the Democratic politicians and control tile Democratic convention. 1 heard of this almost at the time, but like many another at sea, look.ng at the sky and beholding this tiny cloud, no greater than a man s hand in the political skies, 1 could not believe that it meant more than an idle boast given forth by the disgruntled merger organizers. If 1 had reflected on the power of money, if I had retlected upon the vast organization which Wall street has throughout the United States, if I had reflected upon the unscrupulous determination which these men showed in< the campaigns of 1896 and 1900, if I had reflected upon the endless ramifications through Which money can - exerciseriru—influence, If I had reflected upon the unstinted liberality permitted to those, who gobble their tens of millions through government privilege, I could have predicted with certainty just what has come to pass. “But I could not believe that the effrontery of these men would be so great; that they could regard the American people as so asinine; that they could hope to stand up and simply by asserverating through their powerful press connection that white Is black and black is white, and white is black and black is white, repeated ad Infinitum, they could hope to make the American people color bliud. But it Is one of the peculiarities of the sharp politician,.the greedy politician, the unscrupulous politician, the astute politician—to sum up in English as it is spoken in New York, the “peanut politician"—that his views can never in the nature of things extend very far beyond his nose. He has no idea of the breadth of the American continent, he has an utter contempt for the Intelligence of the American people, and he thinks that cunning and manipulation can do it all." Upon this statement Mr. Bryan commented as follows: “When the Republicans e’ect a Wall street man. the Democrats can denounce him and gain recruits by so doing. When the Democrats are unfortunate enough to have a Wall street president, they have to either denounce him or apologize for him, and no matter which they do. they have to bear the odium of his administration. No wonder Mr. Cleveland speaks highly of Judge Parker. He is on the inside, and knows that Mr. Parker is satisfactory to the financial magnates who ran the Cleveland administration and yet. while It ts as plain as day that the Parker boom finds its source in Wail street, there are many Democrats who are trying to argue themselves Into believing that Judge Parker would lie a good man to harmonize on. He has the same environment that Mr. Cleveland had, and it can lie set down as a certainty that Wall street always finds out a man's views before it supports him. however nmelßth-we views may be concealed from the public generally.”

Parker National League. In January, 1904, a circular letter advocating the nomination of Parker for president made its appearance under the letterhead of the Parker National League with headquarters at Suite No. G, Folsom building. 525 Broadway, New York city. The circular was signed by A. Henry Browne, secretary of the Parker National League, and is written under the letterhead of the league. Printed on the letterhead is a picture of the New York jurist, who is styled “our next president,” and below it the following: “List of some prominent indorsers: August Belmont, Esq., of August Belmont & Co., bankers, New York; the Hon. David B. Hill, ex-governor of New York and ex-senator of the United States; the Hon. P. N. McCarren, state senator, Brooklyn, New York; the Hon. Thomas Taggart, proprietor of the Sentinel, Indianapolis; Joseph Pulitzer, editor and proprietor of the New York World; St. Clair McKelway, editor of the Brooklyn Eagle; Norman E. Mack, editor of the Times, Buffalo, N. Y.; etc.” All the editors named in these circulars were either secretly conniving against or openly fighting the Democratic party in 1896 and 1900. Mr. Bryan’i Prophecy. The following Was printed in Mr. Bryan’s “Commoner some weeks before the St Louis convention: “Mr. Cleveland, Mr. Belmont and the financiers and politicians back of the Parker boom are the men who have in t" > campaigns contributed to the defeat of the Democratic party, and they threaten to defeat It acain If they are not allowed to control Its policy. If the members Of the Democratic party desfrr to revolutionize the poller of the party and make It the tool of Wall street, they have a right to do to. but the reorganisers hare no thought of submitting this question to the voters. They will not go before primaries and county conventions with a platform of principles. They rely upon ‘boases’ and -leaders' to hoodwink the people and secure d'legates without, any open avowal of the principles for which they stand.” Parker and Belmont, From Mr. Bryan's speech at ,an antiParker convention In Cooper Union, New York, June 20, 1904: “What Is Mr. Belmont's consideration In ths Parker candidacy? He is too shrewd a financier to Invest uls money without being sure of the goods. If Mr. Parker dealt kOMStly he would say to Mr. Belruout what

he says to others, that his lips are sealed and If he did so he would not be Mr. Beimont'a candidate. . "Parker la traveling as a negative quantity. He stands for nothing positive. He reminds one of the story of the man in praise of a child who said that It looked and breathed. So Parker looks at the great financial Rights uud breathes.” Supreme Court Jeopardized. The following appeared in Mr. Bryan’s paper, “The Commoner,” on April Bth: . "There is no doubt that the corporation intervals aave an understanding with Judge Parker, for without such au understanding ' theywould not think—of—supportlHg—him.The dec.slon iu the merger case shows how important it is tnat the president should be in sympathy with tlie people rather than In sympathy with the corporations. The three judges appointed by Mr. Cleveland dissented from tiie opinion of the court, and as Judge Holmes stood with them, it would only require one more Judge to change the decision. e ven if J mice Brewer's separate Opinion does not al.e.idy indicate the possibility of all adverse decision * an diier ease. "if Judg - !’i l.'r were n imlnnted by the influence of - Tiro - corporations and vh’C’od witli the nld of t licit- corttribut lons, is there any doubt that his appointees would lie corporation non? Can the Democratic party afford to lend itself to a movement to so make up the supreme court as to nullify, the efforts- of the people at reform? To secure remedial legislation the people must have not only the house, the senate, the president, but the supreme court also, and as the members of the supreme court hold office for life, that department of the government Is hardest to change. As president Judge Parker might appoint one. two or even three supreme justices, and his appointments might bar the way to relief for ten or fifteen years. Can the party afford to take such a chance? "If Mr. Parker is nominated, It must not bo as a ‘harmony’ candidate—it must be with the kn.wlodge that he represents the same element, the same Influence and the same method? which during Mr. Cleveland's second administration led th'* D-moerntio party through ‘the valley of the shad >w of death.' ”

WAS DEMOCRACY INSANE?

If So, Bryan Was a Lunatic, According to Mr. Cleveland. Democracy has “returned to sanity,” said Grover Cleveland recently, in an interview. This statement, made with all the solemn ponderosity of which Mr. Cleveland Is capable, would imply that the Democratic party has been insane and its leaders a set of lunatics. In previous interviews Mr. Cleveland contented himself with merely saying that Democracy had strayed from the right path after “strange gods” when it embraced Bryanlsm, but since the defeat of the Bryan faction at St. Louis he has been secretly rejoicing over the apparent downfall of his most bitter political enemy, and on Oct. 2, at Buzzard’s he virtually declared that Mr. Bryan was a madman.

How do the friends of Mr. Bryan in Indiana. Illinois, Nebraska and other states relish having their leader called a lunatic? Insanity is lunacy, or madness, and if the Democratic party “has returned to sanity” it must first have been insane, and, by the same reasoning, if the party was insene because Bryan was its leader, Mr. Bryan himself must have been the chief lunatic. Candidate Parker is generally admitted to be a nonentity in his party—a tool of Hill, Sheehan and others—and what he says counts for little, but it is different when Mr. Cleveland talks. He is the oracle of the Eastern Democracy, and if he says Bryan is insane it is certain he voices the sentiments of “sane" Democracy. How can the Bryanites Indorse such a slander on their leader by supporting Parker? Mr. Cleveland declined to vote for Bryan on the ground that the Nebraskan was insane,- but he will vote for Parker because he leads the “sane” Democratic ticket. An important point seems to have been forgotten by Mr. Cleveland. Parker voted twice for the Nebraska “lunatic” and was therefore one of the host of madmen who composed “insane” Democracy. Does Mr. Cleveland Improve his position by now Supporting one of the madmen who voted for the leader of the “insane” Democracy? Mr. Cleveland’s thrust at Bryan was uncalled for, and will, no doubt, be resented at the polls, for the friends of Mr. Bryan do not think he should be put in the straightjacket class.

WATSON’S VIEWS

The Georgian’s Opinion of Roosevelt and Parker. Thomas E. Watson, the candidate of the People's party, is getting a great deal of amusement out of what he calls the Independent side-show of his own, of which he is “in full militant aggressive control.” He says he respects Roosevelt and the Republicans because they know what they want, are candid in stating their position and fearless in fighting for their principles. He prefers Roosevelt to Parker, because the former “is not seeking the support of Bryan Democrats upon false pretenses. He Is not playing a confidence game on the negro question. He Is not attempting to win Jeffersonians by a sham adherence to Jeffersonian principles. He Is not In ambush; he is behind no *blind’; he stands out in the open and says to his enemies: ‘Here I ato, a Republican who stands pat on all existing conditions; If you want a fight, come on.’” Mr. Watsqn's letter is Jull of vitriolic contempt for Judge Parker as a weakling and artful dodger. It ridicules his position on the pension question and says his pledge to revoke Order No. 78 amounts to saying: “Roosevelt did the right thing, but not in the right way, and if you elect me president I will do the same thing In the proper way.” As to the DeuiX'racy Itself Mr. Watson asks: . “Who could put faith In the pledges of the party which has so little unity of conviction as the National Dem ocracv?” “What party ever made and broke •o many pledgesr
