T NEWSPAPER ablished 1873) (Official City, State and County Newspaper) WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN The death of William Jennings Bryan removes from public life a man whose t personal following over a period of 30 years attests the devotion in which the nation held the dead democratic chieftain. His rigid loyalty to a cause —the outstanding aspect of his spectacular career—won the Commoner the lasting confidence of the masses and retained that confidence when the eccentricities of age and the buffet- ings of circumstances conspired to hold up to ridicule the man to whom millions once looked for inspiration and hope Bryan’s held on the imagination of the masses was phenomenal. It was not lessened because the once popular idol, the “peerless leader,” had feet of clay. It is the mo: genuine tribute that. can be paid to the memory of the man that he never forfeited the affections of the common people. If in his declining years this twentieth-century Don Quixote —who went to his death in the last battle of the windmills was a sad figure, it cannot be said he was not a moving personality. We do not ociate the Bryan of later years with the Bryan of 1896. The nation will forget the old man of after years. It will never forget the young man who occupied the central role in the atest presidential campaign of recent American histo} The stirring -e silver” campaign, now bathed in the pathos of distance, is the resplendent frame with which history will adorn the figure of the Commoner. The voice that came out of the west and sounded the call to arms in the memorable Chicago convention of 1896 will reecho though the nation’s history with undimmed vigor. It will not forget the soul-stirring challenge a new-born leader carried to every corner of the nation when he uttered the speech that coined his fame. “Having behind us the producing masses of this nation and the world, supported by the commercial interests, and the toilers everywhere, we will answer their demand for a gold standard by saying to them: You shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns, you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold.” In that short moment of triumph, Bryan achieved an im- mortality which nothing—not even the man’s own varied histozy ould dim. It reared him to leadership and fused the nation in a struggle which has gone down as an epic of American politics. Bryan catapulted to national prom- inence by a single speech. That speech marks the peak of the golden era of American oratory. His passing marks the end of a splendid succession of great American orators. Like Daniel Webster, Clay and other great orators, he never realized the crowning ambition of his life. But his mark upon the national life cannot be obliterated by defeat. Bryan was the typical American idealist who had not lost contact with the practical affairs of life. He was a poli- tician in the finer sense of the word, He fought to wrest control of the democratic organization from the hands of power-greedy bosses. That contest lasted the length of his colorful public career. The man who three times tasted defeat, lived to accomplish his goal. In the Baltimore con- vention of 1912, Woodrow Wilson, due entirely to the work of Bryan, won the democratic nomination. The Commoner’s contribution to American politics will remain a monument to his life and work. He bequeathed vision. We prefer to remember this and to forget the rest. YOUTH The papers told recently of a young man who, rejected by his sweetheart, swallowed poison in a public dance hall. He didn’t swallow enough, however, and will recover. When that lad gets older he will probably figuratively kick himself many a time, and ponder: “oh, what a fool I made of myself.” And yet it is just youth’s capacity for feeling deep emo- tions that makes it so wonderful. Oftentimes, as with this lad, it gets off on the wrong foot; but somehow, when he is old enough to think of himself as a fool for that action, something will be missing. If only we could enlist this wonderful capacity for en- thusiasm, for deep feeling, in the youth of our land, in some high, stirring ideal—what might not be accomplished. LEGS Probably everyone has heard the tale of the London bus conductor who, noticing a woman reluctant to descend the steep stairway from the upper deck, reassured her with, “Never mind, lady, legs is no treat to me.” There seem to be some grounds for hoping, or fearing, if you will, that the average American male is rapidly ap- proaching a similar frame of mind. Short dresses have been with us, off and on, for years. and the effect is sinking home. No longer do young men point and leer when a girl boards a street car. No longer do the corner loungers strain their eyes when there is a bit of wind. A girl can sit in a street car with her legs crossed without attracting attention. It’s a healthier state of mind. Let’s hope it continues. DISAVOWED There may be comfort for fundamentalists in the fact that Sir Arthur Keith, generally considered the foremost authority in the world on evolution, decalres that the famous “ape-man’s” skull recently found in South Africa is not the skull of the “missing link” at all, but the skull of a young Pe scientific men had hoped that the skull was indeed the long-sought-for skull of the link between ape and man. Sir Arthur disillusions them. _ But, on the other hand, his statement ought to silence some of those enthusiasts who have been charging that men of science always strain a point or two to bolster their pet theory. Sir Arthur didn’t. Editorial Review __ Comments reproduced tn this column may or may not express the opinion of The Tribune.

Rowell German Nationalists are disillusioned. No responsible leader had told them that their marks would be good and their bonds worth par if Hindenburg was elected, but the impression that some such thing would happen was subtly spread. The whole atmosphere of the Nationalist movement was the memory of Old Germany, and the dream that it could be restored by voting to do so. : Of course it can not. The world which ended on August 1, 1914, will never be restored in Germany or anywhere. Perhaps the German Nationalists had to find this out by experience. If so, their present disillusionment may be one element in turning the face of the world forward. Where the British Way Is Better _ . Foreign Secretary Chamberlain told the British Parlia- ment that the British secret service had indisputable evi- dence that “another government” — meaning, of course, Russia—was fostering the Chinese troubles. Secretary Kellogg had the same evidence, and similarly wanted to make it public. But he did not go into Congress and tell what he knew. Our system does not admit anything so simple and direct. Instead, an anonymous article ap- peared in the newspapers, which every experienced reader knew was inspired, but which made no direct statement to that effect. There was nobody to question or which hode no good to the stability of China or the peace of the world. Such statements ought not to be authorized unless they are absolutely known to be true.
