Atlanta, Ga, Feb, 20.—William Jennings Bryan spoke here lastnight on “Moral Issues,” taking occasion toarraign the administration’simpe- rialistic policy and ite handling of the Panama canal situation. Mr. Bryan refused to discuss the state- ment of Charles A. Towne to the ef- fect that the West is tired of the eil- ver question, but he talked freely of the article in the Saturday Evening Post by ex-President Cleveland relat- ing to Democratic duty and prospects for success in the coming fight. “There is only one thing Mr. Cleve- land says which I commend,” Mr. Bryan said. “He urges a platform that shall honestly state the party's position, and that shall mean exact- lywhatit eaye, That is what Ihave Start is Made to Face Japan- ese Bullets in the East.
