BRYAN NOT RADICAL ENOUGH.
A writer, who signs himself "Juni
us,’’ contributes an article to the At
lanta Georgian .In wcich he dispar
ages the suggestion of again nomi
nating Mr. Bryan on the ground that
the great Nebraskan Is not radical
enough, eince the political battle of
1908 will bo a war of labor against
capital. It Is rather amusing
witness men complaining at Mr. Bry
an’s ultra conseivatlsm. In view of
hla two campaigns for the presiden
cy, Just as It Is amusing to note oth
ers complaining because certain men
once opposed to Mr. Bryan are now
advocating his nomination and elec
tion.
What wo object to, however, says
the Houston Post, Is the assumption
Uiat the next campaign la to be
war ot labor against capital, because
It Is going to be nothing of the kind.
If there should be such a political
movement, It li certainly not apt to
Involve any great portion of the dem
ocratic party In the South.
There Is not the slightest Justifi
cation of a political labor movement
in this country, however anxious Mr.
Oompers and others may be to In
cite such a conflict. There are some
serious problems to solve, Involving
both capital and labor, but those
problems are going to be handled
along common sense lines. Mr. Bry
an has himself stated the Issue by
declaring that the necessity exists
for the destruction of private monop
oly. In the destruction of monopoly,
every Just right of labor, organised
or unorganized, will be secured.

A day or so ago we printed
‘‘non-partisan opinion” from Johi

In a later Issue of the Georgian, re
ferring to the disfranchisement pro

r^buaf^Si'men who are
wise- enough to tea that the days of
privilege In the United States
numbered.
Labor, by which la meant the wage
workers other than agriculturists,
has no Just Interest at stake that can
not. be safeguarded through cooper
ation with agriculturists and men in
professional and commercial pursuits
and there Is no potent sentiment in
this country for the destruction ' of
any legitimate Interest. As a matter
of fact, much of the evil which the
republican party has Inflicted upon
the country can be truthfully credit
ed to Northern laboring men who
voted the republican ticket In 1896
when Mr. Brynn was denounced as
a radical.
It is going to do no good at this
time for thoso who voted against Mr.
Brynn then to come forward and
complain that Mr. Bryan Is not rad
ical enough now. He Is Just as rad
ical now as he was then when
was too radical for Mr. Gompers and
others like him to support. And he
Is no more conservative now than he
was then when ho was not conserv
ative enough for some misguided
democrats to support.
The democratic party Is not going
to be swung away from its moorings
to any program of radical socialism.
It is going In the next campaign to
destroy monopoly, to aboilah privi
lege and restore to vitality the an
cient principle of "equal and exact

As a matter of fact, we are all for
disfranchisement of the negro vote
and for what Mr. Graves calls the
"eternal supremacy of tho Caucasian
race,” though there Is a difference
In the way of getting at the matter
Watson* plan—the plan which
Mr. Smith adopted after the Watson
"pledge"—must carry with It an ed
ucational qualification to make it
stand before the United States su
preme court. This would put a
premium upon the education of the
negro and would put more of them
in school than there are at present.
Another plan of dealiug with the
matter Is through the white primary
aud a national disfranchisement law
—or the repeal of the Constitutional
amendments which placed the’ballot
in the hands of the negro.
Watson’s speech at Douglasville,
ten years ago, which we have pub
lished, shows that he does not fear
the negro as a dominating Influence.
Watson’s real grievance is because
the Democrats dominated the negro
when he wanted their votes. H»
