Show The hot weather or something else Is certainly affecting Mr Bryan His speeches since he left home Including his speech of acceptance on Thursday have been pitiable in their mediocrity There is not a high thought to be found In all their dreary waste of words We speak In all fairness but they sound Infinitely more like the talk J I of an amateur who wakes up to find I himself nominated for a county office and who putting on his best clothes goes to show himself to the people and to apeak his little piece than anything that has ever fallen rem the lips of a candidate for President of the United Slates Four years ago Mr Bryan vas called the boy orator To Judge by the speeches he has been making during the past three days he gives off the impression of a species of tropic tree that is always green but only bears fruit once in three years |
