The Two Colonels, Both With Lona Records as Kickers, Would Make Good Team, Says Lewis
T. R. OFFERS WILLIAM J. BRYAN PLACE ON HIS BOLTING TICKET
Ex-President Said To
Be Willing to Let Ne
braskan Head New
Party, With Second
Place for Himself.
. By ALFRED HENRY LEWIS. I
BALTIMORE, June 29.—Who was it |
said "politics makes strange fellows?" I
There may something develop within;
the coming weeks which will great!?,
justify him in his wisdom.
Heney, chief rooter —not to say rioter
—for Roosevelt, is in town. Crane, also
a riotous Rooseveltian. is with him.
Heney came here to see Bryan. He
has seen him; also he saw him for
Roosevelt and brought a message. He
who could say not only what that mes
sage was. but what will be Bryan’s re
ply to it. might, in the ups and downs
It would cause, make money in Wall
Street.
There are two stories told as to that
message brought by Heney from Roose
velt to Bryan. One of them is right
after a manner; perhaps both of them
are right. The more believable is that
Roosevelt is urging Bryan to ..bolt the
present convention even as Roosevelt
bolted the steam-rollered, money-con
' trolled. Root-handled convention in
Chicago, and unite forces with him.
According to the tale as told, Roosevelt,
as an inducement to Bryan, offers the
latter the first place on the new third
party ticket. He t Bryant can have the
white house end of the situation, while
'he (Roosevelt) sinks modestly back to
second place and makes a race for the
vice presidency.
Alleged Roosevelt Contention.
Roosevelt'holds that this last would
show the public that he (Roosevelt)
was moved of pure motives and not
mere personal ambition in his present
war upon Taft and the regular Repub
licans.
Heney is making it plain to Bryan,
as are also divers other friends of
Roosevelt. Confidential friends, such
as William Allen White, are circulat
ing among the newspaper men, mak
ing it plain to the people that the Bry
an strength against Parker, like the
Roosevelt strength against Taft, came
from the middle West and West. In
both conventions the conservative
strongholds were in the East and
South.
* Heney for Roosevelt Insists that a
combination ticket of Bryan and Roose
velt, or Roosevelt and Bryan, would
sweep through the middle West even as
the grace of heaven through a camp
meeting, and leave both of the pld par
ties, too dead to skin.
The other explanation of Heney’s
visit from Roosevelt to Bryan is the
same story over, with the single change
of Roosevelt for the presidency and
Bryan for the vice presidency.
Roosevelt’s Real Motive.
You ask as to the probability of these
tales being true. There is no doubt
that Heney jjas come from Roosevelt.
There is less doubt that his mission is
a mission of politics, and has in view
tile bringing together. shoulder to
shoulder, of Bryan and Roosevelt in a
•crusade (against forces which both
identify as the public enemy.
That Roosevelt would so modify his
pretentions as to offer Bryan the top
place on the tifket and himself sink
hack to second position need not amaze
one. Roosevelt is a wise politician. He
knows the third ticket can’t win. At
best and most it would aid in beating
Taft and make his defeat not alone
sure, but disgraceful. That with a last
word is the target which' Roosevelt
aims at. He doesn't hope to. elect
himself president. He does hop* to
destroy Taft. His one burning wish is
to tear that girtliy chief magistrate
tn two in the middle politically and
leave him on both sides of the road.
In yielding first place to Bryan.
Roosevelt would be sacrificing nothing.
Also he would eliminate the third term
cry. which he knows better than any
other in the country, for he lias re
ceived tons of condemnatory anti-third
term letters. As you look the business
up and down there are scores of rea
sons why Roosevelt ivould be willing to
give Bryan the top of the ticket.
Proposition Not New to Bryan.
The proposition is nothing new to
Bryan. It did not descend upon his
unguarded head like a bolt from the
unexpected blue. While Roosevelt was
fighting his war in Chicago and the
steam-roller was at the height of its
! crushing work the tentative sugges
tion of a Bryan-Roosevelt ticket was
' laid before Bryan at that time. Bryan
was mute. He was trying to edge him
self into the Democratic nomination.
He was talking "Wilson " while mean
ing "Bryan,” and entertained a more or
less firm belief that somehow and In
some way he (Bryan) would be the
man.
Bryan would sooner be the regular
■Democratic nominee than run upon a
bolting ticket with .Roosevelt, and yet
the chance was held open. Who could
say what Baltimore would bring forth?
It might become worth while to talk
of third tickets to one who knows so
well as does Bryan how to coin adver
tisement into money. Bryan therefore
refrained from making a negative an
swer upon that Chicago occasion. He
would close no final door upon the bus
iness The thing was left in the ait.
Bryan Waited Developments.
When Bryan journeyed from Chicago
to Baltimore it was upon a thorough
understanding with himself—an under
standing vaguely but no less positive
ly hinted to Heney and through Heney
to Roosevelt —that in case he (Bryan)
, found the money power in control of
the Democrats he might have some
thing pleasant to say to that thought
of a Bryan-Roosevelt combination.
There is another thought which
would occur to Roosevelt,who concern-

Ing such tangles as these po-sesses th-.-
cunning of a pet fox. With Taft to
the fore. Roosevelt would surely have
at his solid back every progressive
among Ute Republicans. He would
have them were he to head the ticket;
have them were he to run for the
vice presidency.
On the other hand, with Clark, a
piog: essit e, the Democratic nominee,
he (Roosevelt) couldn’t hope to carry
off a single progressive Democrat. Ev
ery Democrat would stick to Clark, but
how about Bryan?
Bryan is a progressive. He lias, too.
or is supposed to have, a personal fol
lowing among the Democratic rank
and file. That purely Bryan strength
might be expected to leave Clark or
Wilson’ er any one else to cleave po
litically unto Bryan. In other words,
to Roosevelt's progressive Republicans.
Bryan might add an army corps of
progiessive Democrats who wouldn't
follow Roosevelt a foot.
All these tilings occurred to the
astute Roosevelt, than whom no more
finished intriguer of politics has lived
since the days of Nazarin.
"Rule or Ruin” Policy.
In racing parlance, Bryan is right
now riding for a fail. He entered the
convention upon a policy of rule or
ruin. He had made up his mind to own
the party or quit the party. It is my
own feeling that he will quit the party,
having been convinced that he doesn’t
own it.
The next thing political you will hear
of him is that he has hooked up witlt
Roosevelt. What a combination! Bryan
for Ihe presidency. Roosevelt for the
vice presidency! It would shock neither
of the principals, however much it
might shock you.
Roosevelt began his political life as a
bolter when Blaine was named in 1884,1
and was only coaxed back upon a
promise of good things to come.
Bryan's Record Is Worse.
From the beginning he has been a
kicker, and Bryan s record is worse.
He came to congress in 1891 as a Popu
list. He quit the Populists for the Dem
ocrats in the house to get a place on
the ways and means committee. He
went back to the Populists and voted
for Wekver in 1892. He appeared in St.
Louis in asking Teller and Dubois
and the other Baltimore Republicans to
name him for the vice presidency on a
bolting ticket which he understood they
would put in the field with Teller at the
top. The Teller bolt came off, but the
Teller ticket did not.
Bryan went to Chicago professing to
be heart and soul for Bland, as he now
professes to be for Wilson, and with his
cross of gold speech tucked into a nom
ination. ,
Bryan has run for the white house
twice since then. He has been hunting
it every moment. He came hunting it
in this present convention. He has
found out that he can't get it—that
Democratically at least he need never
hope to get it.
Under the circmustances. a bolt with
that old natural born bolter—Roosevelt
—would be for Bryan mightily In order.
As I read the stars the gayety of na
tions is to be advanced this autumn by
the advent of a new firm in politics.
It will be made up of Bryan and Roose,
velt.
There remains but one question, will
Roosevelt’s or will Bryan's name be
printed first on the sign?

Not’d Atlanta Equestrienne
Takes Her Famous Mount to
Asheville Exhibition.
N
Miss Mary Algood Jones and Cock
Robin are going to Asheville, N. C„
next week to the horse show, and if
Cock Robin doesn’t come out of the
arena with another blue ribbon on his
bridle there’ll be a mighty disappointed
girl. Cock Robin and his mistress are
used to "blues,” and second or third
prizes do not appeal to them.
Atlantans who filled the boxes at the
horse shows here remember the girl
who always rode so well; who sat her
mount as though she had been born to
the saddle; who was a calm and self
possessed in the tanbark ring with the
band playing and the crowd cheering
as she would have been on a bridle path
in the park. That was Mary Algood
Jones, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
John Ashley Jones, 95 Peachtree circle.
She and her horse are chums. You
may see them any fine morning, if you
rise early enough, cantering out to
ward Piedmont park or Ponce DeLeon
avenue. Automobiles, with their smoke
and ( latter and general disposition to
do the unexpected thing, have made
Peachtree road and other main trav
eled highways out of the question for
enjoyable riding, but there are many ill
paved byways near the city where
horse lovers who have not abandoned
the bridle for the steering wheel may
be found any summer morning.
Miss Jones is one of the most en
thusiastic of the equestriennes, and
Cock Robin is the object of the admira
tion and the envy of her friends.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY
PREMIER CARRIER OF THE SOUTH.
FIRST DEFEAT FOR
MR. HAIL, OF 8188
He Fails to Collect an Ancient
Bill for Mr. Sims. Victim of
Soulless Railroad.
Joe Hill Hall.' the gentleman from
Bibb and the bulldog orator of the low
er house, went down in defeat
in his first crossing of oratorical swords
with Hooper Alexander, of DeKalb, his
ancient adversary. The speech-making
was heated and prolonged, and though
Mr. Hall lost out he sent several of his
antagonists to the tall grass before the
house tired of spellbinding and yelled
for a vote.
It was house resolution No. .’>4 which
started it all. That is the ancient claim
of the heir* of Sherman J. Sims, for an
amount which was once S7OO and which
has grown, by interest, to $1,175.40.
The claim is 20 years old and it has
been before the legislature for ten
years, always pigeon-holed, sidetracked,
forgotten or otherwise sent to the dis
card. Mr. Hall tiled to revive It to
day, but lost.
'Tie an Old, Old Story.
Av. ay back in the dark ages the
commonwealth of Georgia built a rail
road, known as the Northeastern. It
needed a little strip of land from Sher
man Sims’ farm, and it took it. prom
ising Sims, his family, his heirs and
assigns. a free pass over said road
as often as the trains ran.
The Sims family rode until the state
grew tired of railroading and sold its
road to the Southern. That soulless
o peration declined to honor the pass
l the Sims family, which had grown
considerably in the meantime. And
ver since then the Sims family has
been trying to make the state pay what
they considered the value of said free
transportation.
Adjectives A-Plenty. ,
According to Mr. Alexander, it was
a question whether the state would or
would not submit to the perpetration
of a pernicious graft, with other ad
jectives attached. According to Mr.
Hall, the state had pledged its sacred
word, the courts had rendered a judg
ment In favor of Sherman Sims, his
heirs, and the house of representatives
was in duty bound to vote the appro
priation or hang its head in disgrace
forever. He had considerable support,
too. Mr. Kimbrough, of Harris, and
others adding their voices to the vol
ume of oratory. Mr. Alexander came
back several times.
At last the house grew tired and de
manded that the committee of the
whole rise and report that the resolu
tion do not pass. It carried by a sub
stantial majority and the Sims claim
was buried once more.

WM. JENNINGS BRYAN
GREATEST IN DEFEAT
By ELBERT HUBBARD.
BALTIMORE, June 29.—1 called on
Colonel Bryan in hie room at the Bel
vedere.
He was wrestling with the starchy
obstinacy of the biggest white shirt 1
ever saw, preparatory to going to the
mayor’s reception.
Tw o collar buttons had already rolled
under the bureau, but Bryan was placid.
He has the happy habit, and he has
the defeat habit. Defeat is only for the
man who thinks defeat. To retreat in
good order, to Bryan, is victory.
And so, when I met Colonel Bryan
wrestling with the big “biled" shirt he
was sweatingly, smilingly happy. He
had shot his oratorical bolt, frankly ex
pressed his disapproval of Judge Par
ker, noted the fact that 510 delegates
had manfully stood by him, forgotten
that 579 hadn’t, and when 1 told him of
the generous compliment paid him by
Judge Parker, he said: “Did he say
that?” And then asked me to say it
again.
Not to have allowed Bryan to speak
at Baltimore would have been cruelty
to children.
So the Eagle Screamed.
Could there really be a genuine, sure
enough Democratic convention without
oratorical fireworks? Would it be con
stitutional? And so. there being no
other "silver tongues” present to com
pare with the man from Nebraska’s
shimmering plains, It was arranged,
and we heard the Eagle’s Scream.
Without Bryans protest, the pro
ceedings would have lacked accent.
The great commoner gave color to
the occasion. He added the necessary
tabasco, and the visitors will go back
home staisfied.
Bryan docs not like Parker, and it
was a joy to hear him say so, and at
the same time no one thought any less
of Parker.
Likes and dislikes are a matter of
temperament.
What the Rev. Dr. Dame called "the
congregation” admires Parker, but we
love Bryan.
After talking with Aryan at the Bel-'
vedere, I went over to the Emerson
and met Parker. It was like going from
a greenhouse into a cold storage plant,
cnicago Billingsgate Missing.
Bryan’s language was the language
of beseeching diplomacy. The man is
a great preacher. He has taken on the
evangelical atmosphere through much
speaking in the chautauquas, until mel
lowing age and becoming adipose have
given him a sort of "God bless you, my
children,” mental attlude. He should
be Bishop Bryan, not Colonel.
His speech dealt with past history.
And he who deals with reminiscences
instead of prophecy is wearing his fu
ture for a bustle.
Bryan nominated Senator Kern for
the chairmanship, and Kern came back,
and in a dignified heart-to-heart talk,
carrying with it fine pleas for peace and
good will, nominated Bryan.
And Bryan then came forward and
seconded the motion.
1 could not make out why any one
should object to Bryan. Personally, I
believe the heart of every delegate was
with him.
The only objection possible to Bryan
is that we are a little "tired of hearing
Aristides called The Just."
There is something in the heart of
man that protests against any man
getting much the start of the rest.
Bryan's Power Unmistakable.
When we fear Bryan's magnetic
presence, we pay him a great compli
ment.
The power of the man Is unmistak
able. The world has given him plaud
its for sixteen years. And who else
has stood the limelight so long with
out blinking’’

Parker certainly poured judicial oil
on the troubled waters in his gracious
compliments to Colonel Bryan.
Bryan is still the Great Commoner,
and he will be great long after this
convention Is forgotten. Read history
and remember that only a failure lives
enshrined in human hearts. No one
can jostle Bryan out of this place. Mul
titudes of men, women and children
reverence him beyond any other liv
ing human being. His apothesis is sure,
and his income is double that of the
president, when we consider the white
house "overhead.”
No Real Reasons Against Clark.
Bryan thinks well and speaks well
of Clark.
I have not been able yet to find any
one who could give a reason why
Champ Clark is not superb, well-sea
soned, vibrant, sound presidential tim
ber.
After visiting the Harmon. Wilson.
Underwood and Gaynor headquarters, I
can detect only personal and local rea
sons for opposing Champ Clark.
Champ Clark is a graduate of the
University of Hard Knocks.
Every experience of the seml-pio
neer times was his. In boyhood he
warmed his feet on October mornings
where the cows lay down. Difficulty,
trial, loss, deprivation, all the time—
learning and making head lessons—
these have been his mentors.
His hair is whitened by the frost of
years. Ills face is furrowed with lines
of thought, and while still In the hey
day of bodily vigor, yet time has tamed
him. and the hot desire to make the old
world over is not his.
Champ Clark knows that we evolve
through evolution. His heart is with
the toilers, but he knows full well that
the condition of the workingman is not
to be helped by making war on the
men who maintain a payroll. Champ
Clark will regulate, not destroy. He
will create, not tear down.
He has health, mentality, good-will,
ambition within decent limit, and he
has strength to resist bribery, no mat
ter in what form It may come.

Baltimore? Beautiful Baltimore is
, certainly an ideal hostess. Every

If you ask a man to direct you to

"Why, I'm Just going there,” and he
