JVational Committee's
Letter to Editors.
To the Editors:
There are no secrets in this campaign.
Strictly practicing what he
preaches, Mr. Bryan would not win victory with tainted money paying the
election expenses.
Not a dollar is to be accepted which requires any promise, either ex
pressed or implied, other than for HONEST,
MENT.
Mr. Bryan will enter the White House absolutely free from entangling
alliances, free to serve all classes of honest citizens alike, or he will not
enter at all.
Hence the course is plain. The campaign of Bryan and Kern must be
conducted by the people.
The people must pay the necessary campaign expenses If they want
public servants who will serve their Interests.
Special Interests and favored classes, having secured "SWOLLEN
FORTUNES'' by purchasing favors In the past with MILLIONS CON
TRIBUTED TO CONTROL ELECTIONS, stand ready to give MIL
LIONS MORE FOR CONTINUED FAVORS,
a dollar unless It buys a pledge.
Mr. Bryan says, from March 4, 1909, "LET THE PEOPLE RULE."
This can come only if the people pay their own bills, and control
their own elections.
"BEWARE OF THE TRUSTS 'BEARING GIFTS.' "
That policy of the favored few buying a mortgage on the government
meant that the candidate for president knew a few people only in an en
tire state.

• Bryan says, "We will take the cause of PEOPLE'S RULE home to
the people, and will know people in every county."
You can serve the grand cause of popular government.
Your paper reaches the fireside of the patriot who loves his
country
for his country's GOOD; as distinguished from the greedy possessor of
swollen fortunes who loves his country only for his country's GOODS.
Please carry this letter in BOLD TYPE at the masthead of
your pa
per.
Asking every one who favors government by the people to pay you, at
once, as many dollars as he can spare to aid the campaign for BRYAN,
KERN AND PEOPLE'S RULE. You forward these gifts of honest hearts
and homes every two weeks to the treasurer of the Democratic national
commltttee, with the name of each contributor and amounts given,
treasurer will forward you a certificate like the copy inclosed for each
one, asking you to deliver these certificates.
Once more, you should be a part of the great organization bearing the
Lamp of Light to every nook and corner of Free America.
Our country is for the people; its government must be by the people

Washington Day By Day.j
Hearst News Service.
Washington, September 6.—There is
little indication that the silver-tongued
Joe Blackburn, of Kentucky, will be
heard on the hustings this campaign.
Since he fell out of the senate and into
the Isthmian Canal Commission, with
headquarters in the Canal Zone, he has
lost interest in common politics. But
Blackburn was a great campaigner in
his day, and there was a time when it
was hard to keep him from speaking.
It Is related of him that he was once
present at a hanging in Kentucky, and
in those days a hanging was looked
upon as a public holiday. It was a
public performance, and was attended
by all citizens, men, women and chil
dren, and the farmers, with their hired
1 inds and families, drove In from miles
around. There was a great crowd
When the condemned man was asked
at the last moment if he had anything
to say, he shook his head negatively,
whereupon, Blackburn, mounted the
platform and said:
"Mr. Sheriff, if the gentleman con
cedes his time, I desire to make a few
remarks on the political issues of the
day,' and launched forth into a speech
that held his great audience for an
hour and a half. The sheriff proceeded
with the hanging, but the assemblage
took no interest in it. They all pre
ferred to hear Blackburn.
Another old campaigner who will
probably not take much part in the
campaign this year,
Grosvenor, of Ohio,
he was once an irrepressible spell
binder. Wherever two or three gather
ed together in the name of anybody,
there was Grosvenor to make a speech.
"Old Figgers"
Like Blackburn
He was present one evening at a large
church wedding. When the officiating
minister had announced that if any
man knew of any objection to the mar
riage he should speak then or forever
afterward hold his peace, Grosvenor
waited for a moment or two during
the solemn pause that ensued, ttnd then
arose in his place and said:
"As no one seems inclined to take
advantage of this oportunity, I de
sire to say a few words in connection
with the coming campaign in this
state," and for the next 30 minutes the
wedding ceremony ceased until Gros
venor finished his remarks.
Gaines—John Wesley Gaines, of Ten
nessee—the gay and debonair, the bril
liant and the bald, is another un
squelchable orator and much more au
dacious, than either Blackburn or Gros
1 venor.
[ Probably the most characteristic
story every told about Gaines is con
nected with the time he went up Into
Maine to be the best man at the wed
ding of th§ daughter of Dingley, the
tariff apostle. Gaines got up there on
time, all right, but the bridegroom
missed the train and the wedding had
to be postponed until the following
night, Gaines did not propose to waste
any time, so he went down town, hired
a hall for the evening, called at a
printing office and ordered a thousand
posters stuck up over town. These
posters read: "Free Trade! Free
Trade! Free Trade! Down with the
protection of monopolies. Come out
out tonight and hear the gospel of
tariff reform expounded by that cham
pion of the people, the brilliant young
statesman from Tennessee, John Wes
ley Gaines. Admission free. Seats re
served for ladies. The band will be
in attendance.
Then Gaines hired the town band
that evening delivered to a packed
house one of the strongest anti-pro
tection speeches ever made in the state
of Maine. He made a hit with the peo
ple, but it is said that Mr. Dingley
never did appreciate the joke. He and
Gaines were really the only two who
never did see the Joke of It.
A special committee to provide for
the entertainment of- the women dele
gates and visitors to the Internationl
Tuberculosis Congress, which will con
vene in Washington, September 21, has
been appointed by the local officials,
under the chairmanship of Mrs. George
M. Sternberg, wife of the former sur
geon general of the army. The offices
of the committee wil be in the central
department of the congress in the
Smithsoian Museum.
Included in this commitee will be
I sub committees to arrange for the com
fort and convenience of guests speak
ing different languages. Miss Sophie
Stebert has been chosen chairman of
the committee on foreign guests speak
ing German; Mrs. W. C. Chancellor, of
the committee on guests speaking
French; Mme Quesade, of the commit
tee on guests speaking Spanish, and
Mrs. Charles J. Bell, on the committee
on guests speaking English.
Dr. John S. Fulton, secretary general
of the congress is much elated over
the announcement made by ' the Ger
man government through the Depart
ment of State, that Prof. Dr. Robert
Koch, discoverer of the tubercle bacil
lus and the cholera germ, will attend
the congress as the official representa
tive of the German empire. Dr. Koch
with Prof. Dr. Martin Kirschmer,
Kutusministerium, and Prof. Dr. Wil
helm Oliver von Loupe, professor in
the Royal University of Wurtzburg,
Bavaria, will head the German delega
tion of 35 members.
Word has been received through
the State Department that Dr. F. B.
Herbitz has been appointed the offi
cial representative of Norway.
