he gets into a political meeting In his ad dress at the banquet he made fre quent and telling use of biblical references One of these was while he was speaking of Hamilton and Jefferson or aristocracy and de mocracy or Republicans and Demo 1 crfitLSa If I want to find out whether a man inclines to aristocracy or to Democracy I talk to him about the parable of Dives and Lazarus" he said "The man who believes in Democratic theories of government will pity poor Lazarus and wish that something could be done to lift up the distressed of the world The aristocrat will sniff and say a good thing for Lazarus it was that there was a rich man from whose table he could get crumbs to live "Talking of the references to him self as a dreamer Bryan grew elo quent in praise of the world's dreamers and likened himself to Joseph who was one of the first dreamers he said He told of being sold into slavery by his brothers and his story of the voung1 Israelite's life in Egypt was a brilliant bit of word work "But a famine came and the Israelites' were forced to go down into Egypt to buy he on "There they found the dream er and they had to go to him to buy the corn they needed It doesn't make much difference how much a man dreams as long as in the end he gets the One of grounds for be lief in his own cej tain success this year is that the Republicans and not the Democrats will be on the defensive in the coming campaign "In the last three fights they told us about their ability to guarantee he said "We were obliged to believe that while they were in control of the govern ment nothing evil could happen to the country They boasted that they were in a partnership they be ing the senior member of the firm and God Almighty the junior mem ber But it seems that the partner ship has been dissolved The junior partner lias drawn out of the com bination and the other fellow finds that he cannot run the business all r' There was nothing of the old Brvan missing from the political part of the evening and brilliant epigrams followed one another un til he had the crowd fairly beside themselves He is as hard a fighter as ever in his career and while his hearers are still sceptical about his winning the presidency they feel sure that?
