BROS. 201 MAIN STREET buy Detter | | warlike BRYAN REALLY BACK WITH DEMOCRACY ' tration.in St. Louis Speech St. Louis, June 16—When Senator | James called the democratic conven- [ tion to order at 9:18 last night eri of “Bryan! Bryan!” showed the heads | of entertainment what the convention was looking for. Mr. James is an old-time Bryan follower, bu he thun- dered for order. The guests of the convention, he said, must not abus their privileges. The cheery crowd ap- plauded this rebuke and a resolution at once was offered by Senator Thompson of Kansas to suspend the | rates and hear Mr. Bryan. The mo- tion was carried, scattering ‘‘noes.” A committee headed by Senator Kern of Indiana escorted Mr. Bryan to the speaker’s place, while the floor and galleries roared their ap- proval. Senator James introduced Mr. | Bryan as ‘“one of the leading citizen of the world and America’s greatest democrat. | Mr. Bryan set no limit to his ad- miration of the president nor to the party’s claim for continuance in pow- er. He said he had had differences of opinion with President Wilson, but, raising his head and his voice, while the packed Coliseum gave a mighty shout of joy and relief he said: “I join the people in thanking God that we have a president who does not want the nation to fight.”” Manifestly there had been uneasi- ness lest Mr. Bryan should limit his | indorsement to domestic matters, il he did not actually assail the presi- | dent to justify his own resignation as Secretary of State, but he did nothing of the sort. He surprised his hear- ers, many of whom remembered his raids on party harmony in the past by saying that all democratic conventions were love feasts to him. 3ut as he proceeded it was evident that he meant the description to ap- ply truly to this convention. He was truly back with the party that had nominated him three times for the presidency, and in his closing sen- tence he asked that the nomination this time be given to, President Wil- son. Referring to his hope for the res- toration of peace, he said: “As a democrat I want my party to have the honor of bringing the peace about and I want the country to give Woodrow Wilson a chance to bring it about.” A Sincere Speech. It has been a long time Bryan had his party leade ly with him. Murmurs ran the delegation that Mr. Bryan was making the greatest convention speech of his life. In a sense this was true, though not as to oratory. Mr. Bryan's friends have said that be caused Woodrow Wilson's nomin tion four years ago, but his enemies said that he couldn’'t prevent it. Last night, however, there was no doubt that Mr. Bryan had put his personal political ambition away from him. He set at rest the one possibility of demo- cratic dissension here and, praising Mr. Wilson's domestic and foreign policies and his courage against the interests of those who want war, he urged a united demeocracy to rally for the president’s re-election. Mr. Bryan reerred to his long ser- vice for the party and the long friend- ships he had derived from the politi- cal wars he had waged. He praised Governor Glynn's speech and said he had met him years ago when he threw into the Bryan campaign the vigor of a young man of promise that had been made good. He praised Sen- ator James, and he did not fail to in- clude in his friends and his old enemy Senator Stone of Missouri, Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Rela- tions here, who has been working to avoid a too warlike denunciation of hyphenated citizens in the democratic platform. For Mr. Bryan, in making peace with his own party, was also making a peace speech to the country on foreign affairs. The one point he stressed in his reference to the Eu- ean difficulties was that President on had kept the country out of That was his point of praise too regarding the president’s hand- ling of the Mexican situation. His| view was that intervention would lead to annexation and his praise was that the president had prevented that. Eulogizes the President. Reviewing the struggles of the democratic party, Mr. Bryan said: “After sixteen years of waiting, our party entered the White House, and fortunately we won the senate and the house at the same time. Our party became responsible for nation- sl affairs, and now we come, after three vear of labor, to make our plans fcr the future and to submit to the American people the claims of our v to continued confidence. “Whatever differences of opinion may exist, ar may have existed, as to particular measures or particular acts, we are here to begin the fight of 1916, a united party in every state in the Union, ready for battle. “Today those who stand for the democratic party are able to go be- fere this nation and not only give a reason for the faith that is in them, but give a defense of the administra- tien’s claims to the confidence of the people. “You may take all the administra- tions from the beginning of our his- tory as a republic to the beginning of the present one, and you will not find as many laws written upon the sta- tute books, of great importance to the people, as you will find written in the last three years by Woodrow Wilson, a democratic president.” Briefly, Mr. Bryan then referred to he tariff revenue, the Federal Re- serve law, and the strengthening of the anti-trust laws. No' president since Jackson,” he continued, “has had to meet such an | unholy combination of the powers of h finance, ana even Jackson him- _ self never mct the situation better nce Mr. solid- through Praises Wilson and His Adminis- | though not without | NEW., BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, JUNE 16, 1916. than Woodrow Wilson met it. We have just commenced to learn what the Federal Reserve law means for this nation. This great piece of legis- lation, the greatest piece of construe- tive statesmanship in a generation, has not only broken the hold of Wall S s of the nation, the grip of Wall Street upon the politics of the United States. For twenty ye: there has rot been an election but what a hun- dred men in Wall Street could, by coercian they had in their pow: change the result of the election. And one who like myself has felt their power must be pardoned if he rejoices that we have an administra- tion that has broken that power and set a nation free. “Here were three great measures, carrying out the promise of a demo- cratic platform, and these three great measures constitute a record of achievement which the republican party dare not attack. The elector- ate before which the republican party must now go is not controlled as the convention at Chicago was, by the ex- { vert representatives of the favor- sceking corporations. “While our president and our con- gress were at wark conducting th splendid pyramid of performance a war came that threw upon this ad- ministration such burdens as no presi- cent has had to bear within the last fifty years. We inherited from a re- publican administration an insurréc- tion in Mexico. This administration bas dealt with that situation, and the republican party dare not challenge a verdict before the country on the Mexican question. “We have a few man interested in ranches and a few interested in mines who would use the blood of American soldiers to guarantee profits and their iuvestments in a foreign land. But that is not the sentiment of the American people. The people of this country stand back of Woodraw Wil- sen in his determination not to in- terfere in the affairs of Mexico, “Why, my friends, if President Wil- san had yielded to the demand of those who have clamored for inter- vention in Mexico we would no sooner have crassed the line than the same men would tell him that the soldiers rever must come out, for, my friends, arnexation is the next step after in- tervention has been undertaken. And if we invaded Mexico, these same men would say, ‘On to Panama.’ “But, my friends, the president nat only has had to deal with war to the south of us, but with war to the east of us. My friends, I have differed from our president on same of the methods employed in this war. but I am one of those who desire sincere- ly that this nation shall nat become a participant in the dreadful conflict. “There is a picture which has at- tracted attention wherever it has Leen seen—the picture of Christ Be- fore Pilate. Pilate represented the power of the Roman government, and back of him were the legions of Rome. Before Pilate, helpless, un- armed, stood the Apostle of Love. Yor His triumph, they nailed Him to the tree, and those who stood around mocked and jeered and said, ‘He is cead.” But that, instead of being the end, was only the beginning. “In a few centuries the power of Caesar was gone and his legions for- gotten. The power of Christ, how- ever, increased until hundreds. yes thousands of millions of people, have taken His name with reverence upon their lips. Millions have been ready tc die rather than surrender the faith trat He put into their hearts. He has become the great factor of all histcsy, the glowing figure of all time. To- day Christ and Pilate again stand face to face, and Force and Love are again striving for mastery and domi- nance. The Old World represented Force. It built its hopes of peace and fear and threats of violence. Each nation attempted to terrorize other rations into peace, and in their efforts they engendered hatreds that ended in war. “If the nations now at spent one-tenth as much cultivate friendship as spent in trying to there would be no today. “If I understand this nation’s ap- pertunity and this nation’s task, it is tc lead the world away from its false philosophy and help it to build its hope of peace on the enduring foun- detion of love and brotherhood and co-operation. “And, my friends, if this is ta he the task of this nation, what party is fit to perform the task than the party that preaches -the brotherhood of man as next in importance to the fatherhood of God? “I, as a lover pf my country, want my country to win this greatest of all prizes. As a democrat, I want my party to have the honor that shall come with the accomplishment and fulfillment of such a task, and I i stand with the democrats of the { nation to give to Woodrow Wilson an cpportunity to be that man.” i it has broken war had trying to they have cultivate hatred, war in Europe It’s Wonderful How Resinol Stops Itching To those who have endured for years the itching torments of eczema or other such skin-eruptions, the relief that the first use of Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap usually gives is incredible.
