This is hot meant as a reflection on Mr. Bryan, but public opinion here as elsewhere is very much divided in regard to Mr. Bryan. He is not by any means the idol of the people of Utah he was a few years ago. There are a great many more at this time who take no stock in him and the views which he represents, than there are who still believe in him" and his theories. There are many, who, if they believed that Bry-aniwas to be injected into the Democratic programme, would vote the Re publican ticket. The presence of Mr. Bryan is more likely to increase the discord in the party, He will change no Republicans. Moreover, he has lost prestige and is looked uporfks repre--l renting little but defeat.
