One who was in close touch with him, both be- fore and after the Philadelphia episode, answers as follows: — “He believes the overshadowing issue of our time is pri- vate monopoly of transportation, industry and credit, and he believes that On that issue he alone, of the three candidates for the Republican nomination, represents the policies that are absolutely vital to the welfare of the 95 per cent. “His difference with Roosevelt on this economic question fs one that cannot possibly be reconciled. ho the ¢ history of politics The que.tion “La Follette honestly believes that the policy of accepting]? private monopoly as a permanent condition and having the government fix prices (presumably upon the basis of inflated capitalization) would amount to nothing less than the be- trayal of the republic into the hands of the money-masters. “ “Neither does he agree with President Taft that it is enough merely to ‘enforce’ the existing anti-trust law, with such results as we have seen in the oil and tobacco cases, where private monopoly is now authorized to do LEGALLY what it was convicted for doing LLLEGALLY, and where it has seen its stocks and bonds rise to unprecedented figures in ronsequence of this immunity from future ‘prosecution . ‘ “LaFollette ALONE stands fer a policy that will do jus- fice to all concerned, as justice was done by the constructive legislation he wrote upon the statute books of Wisconsin, where public utility companies are making good returns, yet iving the consumers BETTER SERVICE AT LOWER SOsT “Will he succeed? He does not know—nor care. knows that he is right, whether he goes up or down. all he cares, He says with William Lloyd Garrison: “*T will not retract, I will not equivocate, I will not re- tract a single inch, and I WILL BE HEARD’ “That's La Follette.” Well, well! Perhaps there is room for ONE such man in the United States of America in the year of our Lord, 1912 A Welcome Visitor What would we do without him?

He only That is What would we do with- To William Jennings Bryan it ts time for Wilflam Jennings Bryan to put on his armor and so to swinging bis trusty battle-ax, in behalf of the democracy of the People and the democratic party. Beyond all others, he ts the man in whose courage, honesty of por- pose, incorruptibliity and patriotism the common people have confi- dence. There may be question as to the wisodm of his position on certain issues, and he does bear the stigma of repeated defeats, but he fa best Known to be of ahd for the people, and his defeats are without dishonor The great Nebraskan bas the esteem and reapect of the Masses, earned through manly, open fights for what he believed to be right, even when the fight was against his own party, and not one act in ali his active career has cast the slightest suspicion on his loy alty to the people and hostility to those who oppress and loot the peo ple. Like Henry George, William Jennings Bryan ts “For Men,” and While be may not be the general actually on the battlefield, placing the men and the guns, he stijl is “For Men,” and the people know It It is to such @ man that the country may well turn for advice at this time, when the very life of democracy is dying out, when the Beople are ready to resort to a captial operation to aave that life, when that very principle of self-government which Mr. Bryan has loved and Tabored for is making its stand against a moneyed oligarchy. Mr. Bryan must know what is going on. He must see that with aft or Roosevelt on one of the tickets, Big Business ts trying to ghape the democracy for another dose of the “safe-and-eane” idiocy He must know what it means when a democratic majority in the con- gress suddenly “lies down” in its probing of trusts and sidetracks leg. fslation to reduce the cinches of the monopoll He must see the rea- gon for solidification of reactionary democrais and republicans and Mongrel Hearstites at Washington on a Champ Clark, who feels “safe and sane” in not letting the people know where he stands on initiative, referendum, recal} of the judic.ary and other hot isaues of the hour. Mr. Bryan, who is the man for leader of the democracy in these trying times? We believe that you can answer this to the satisfac tion of the people. We believe that William Jennings Bryan is bigger than anything that personally affects William Jennings Bryan alone and that be can answer this question as a respected leader of men and as an unselfish lover of the cause of men. Who is the man, you great, honored and honorable Commoner?
