MR. BRYAN’S NOTIFICATION
SPEECH
(Continued from page one.)
preached, both the president and Mr.
Taft declared In favor of tariff revis
ion, but set the date of revision after
the election. But the pressure brought
to bear by the protected interests has
been great enough to prevent any a'-
tempt at tariff reform before the elec
tlon; and the reduction promised
afler the election Is so hedged about
with qualifying phrases, that no one
can estimate with accuracy the sum
total of tariff reform to be expected
In case of republican success. If
the past can be taken as a guide, the
republican party will be so obligated
by campaign contributions from tee
henefieiarles of protection, as to make
that party powerless to brag n the
Country any material relief from the
present tariff burdens.
Why No Anti-Trust Legislation?
A few years ago the republican
leaders In the house of representa
tives were coerced by public opinion
Into the support of an anti trust law
which had the endorsement of the
president, but the senate refused even
to consider the measure, and since
that time no effort has hi en made by
the dominant party .to secure remedial
legislation upon this subject.
Why No Railroad Legislation?
For ten years the Inter-state Com
merce Commission has been asking
for an enlargement of its powers, that
it might prevent rebates and discrimi
nations, but a republican senate and
a republican house of representatives
were unmoved by its entreaties. In
19u0 the republican national conven
tion wns urged to endorse the demand,
for railway legislation, but its plat
iorm was silent on the subject. Even
in 1904, the convention gave no pledge
to remedy these abuses When the
president finally asked for legislation,
he drew his inspiration from three
democratic national platforms and he
received more cordial support from
the democrats than from the republi
cans. The republicans in the sen
ate deliberately defeated several
amendments offered by Senator La-
Follelte and supported by the demo
crats —amendments embodying legis
lation asked by the Inter-state Com
merce Commission. One of these
amendments authorized the ascertain
ment of the value of railroads. This
amendment was not only defeated by
the senate, but it was overwhelming
ly rejected by the recent republican
national convention, and the republi
can candidate lias sought to rescue
his party from the disastrous results
of this act by expressing himself, in
a qualified way, In favor of ascertain
ing th* value of the railroads.
An Election a Public Affair.
An election Is a public affair. Tho
people, exsrelsing the right to select
heir officials and to decide upon the
policies to be pursued, proceed to
their several polling places on elec
tion day and register their will. What
excuse can be given for secrecy as to
the influences at work’ If a man.
pecuniarily Interested in "concenttat
ing the control of the railroads in one
management," subscribes a lat te sum
lo aid in carrying the election, why
should his part in the campaign be
concealed until he has put the offi
cials under obligation to him? f
a trust magnate contributes SIOO,OOO
to elect political friends *to office,
with a view to preventing hostile leg
islation, why should that fact be con
caaled until his friends are securely
seated In their official positions?
This Is not a new question; it is a
question which has be an agitated—a
question which the republican lead
ers fully understand- a question
which the republican candidate has
studied, and yet he refuses to declar
himself in tavor of the legislation ab
solutely necessary, namely, legislation
requiring publication before the elec
tion.
Personal Inclination Not Sufficient
In his notification speech, the re
publican candidate, speaking of the
election of senator by the people,
says: “Personally, lam Inclined to
favor it, but It is hardly a party
question " What iq necessary to
make this a party question? When
the democratic convention endorses
a proposition by a unanimous vote,
and the republican convention rejects
the proposition by a vote ot seven to
one, docs It not become an issue be
tween the parties? Mr. Taft can not
remove the question from the area
ot polltcs by expressing a personal
Inclination toward the democratic po
sition For several years he has been
connected with the administration.
What has he ever said or done to
bring this question before the public?
What enthusiasm has ho shown in
th> reformation of the senst*? What
Influence could be except In behalf
of a r Jorm which bis party has
openly and notoriously omd -mn -d In
Its convention, and to widen he ‘b
tachfd only by a belated expression
of personal Inclination?
The Gateway to Other Reforms.
"Shall the people ru.e*” Every
remedial measure of a national char
acter must run the gauntlet of th*
-ens’e. Th*- president may persons!
ly incline toward a reform: the house
may cousent to tt; but as long as the
senate obstructs the reform, the peo
ple must wait. The president may
b »ed a popular demand; the house
may yield to public opinion; but ai
long as the senate is defiant, the rule
of the people is defeated The demo
cratic platform very properly de*
cribes the popular election of sen*
tors as "the gateway to other national
reforms Shall we open tfce gate,
or shall we allow the exploitlsg In
ics*s to bar the way by the control
of this branch of the federal legisla
ture- Through a democratic victory
and through a dcmocra’lc victory

only, can the people secure the pop
ular election of senators. The small
er parties are unable to secure this
reform; the republican party, under
its present leadership, is resolutely
opposed to It; the democratic party
stands for it and has boldly demand
ed it. If 1 am elected to the presi
dency, those who are elected upon
the ticket with me will be, like my
self, pledged to this reform, and 1
shall convene congress in extraordi
nary session immediately after inau
guration, and ask. among other things,
for the fulfillment of this platform
pledge.
Other issues Will Be Discusssed Later
“Shall the people rule?” I repeat,
Is declared by our platform to be the
overshadowing question, and as the
campaign progresses, I shall take oc
casion to discuss this question as It
manifests itelf in other issues; for
whether we consider the tariff ques
tion, the trust question, the railroad
question, the banking question, the
labor question, the question of ini
perlalism, the development of our
waterways, or any other of the num
erous problems which press for so
lution, we shall find that the real
question Involved In each is, whethet
the government shall remain a mere
business asset of favor seeking cor
porations or be an instrument in the
hands of the people for the advance
ment of the common weal.
Democratic Party Has
Earned Confidence.
If the voters are satisfied with the
reored of the republican party and
with Us management of public af
fairs we cau not reasonably ask for a
change In administration; if, how
ever, the voters feel that the people,
as a whole, have too little influence
in shaping the policies of the govern
meat; if they feel that great combi
nations of capital have encroached
upon the rights of the masses, and
employed the instrumentalities of
government to secure an unfair share
ot the total wealth produced, then we
have a right to expect a verdict
against the republican party and in
lavor of the democratic party; for
our party has risked defeat —aye, suf
fered defeat —hilts effort to arouse the
conscience of the public and to bring
about thai very awakening to which
Mr. Taft has referred.
Only those are worthy to be en
trusted with leadership in a great
cause who are willing to die for ir
and the, democratic party has proven
Its worthiness by Us refusal to pur
chase victory by delivering the peo
ple into the hands ot those who have
despoiled them. In this contest be
tween democracy on the one side and
plutocracy on the other, the demo
cratic party has taken its position on
the ride ot equal rights, and invites
the opposition of those who uso poli
tics to secure special privileges and
governmental favoritism. Guaging the
progress of the nation, not by the
happiness or wealth or refinement ol
a le.v, but "by the prosperity and ad
vancement of the average man," the
democratic party charges the repub
llcan party with being the promoter
of present anuses, the opponent of ne
cessary remedies and th only bulwark
