Mayes, of the Pensacola Journal, one of the dele- gates te the Democratic convention, writes a very interesting article for his paper on the convention, and of William Jennings Bryan he has the following to say: “I have met Mr. Bryan on several occasions and have heard him speak from various platforms as have thou- sands of Americans everywhere, But Mr. Bryan on the lecture platform and Mr. Bryan in the forum of poli- tics are like two separate and dis- tinct persons.
