| Show I I Replying to the GlobeDemocrat the CourierJournal says The GlobeDemocrat is mistaken in placing us among the Reorganizers Wo aspire to no such distinction We belong to no such category Wo train neither with organizers nor disorganizes Ours Is the leadership of Ideas not of machines ma-chines Wo care not who control tho conventions and malco tho tickets Wo expound tho gospel of truth and ho that rejects the truth will bo surely left when tho votes conic to bo counted The above Is remarkable not less forth for-th grace of the style of It than for Its modesty The GlobeDemocrat had bantered the CourierJournal with jhowing a disposition to desert Mr Bryan to which the Kentucky Star Eyed responded as follows Softly It Mr Bryan keeps on as ho Is now going ho will be left in a party all by himself long before 1001 Parties cannot can-not bo fed on cobwebs Tho Courier Journal has been faithfully trying to show this visionary and heady young person per-son the way out of the wilderness It Is his friend not his enemy It knows full well that ho Is I preparing for himself an old ago of bitterness and disappointment emulating the folly and acrlmonlousncss of the wasp which Is said to be biggest when newly hatched Instead of the patient pa-tient wisdom of the honey bee Tho legions of Democracy have given Mr Bryan and his plans of battle even more than a fair trial They hao followed him through two dreadful campaigns to two disastrous defeats the second greater than tho first t That ho should use to such men tho language of dictation that he should threaten them In caso they dare to think for themselves and decline to take the word ready made from his lips In short that he should stigmatize all Democratic Demo-cratic discussion of ways and moans as ticason is proof not HO much of rank Ingratitude In-gratitude ns of amazing lack of knowledge knowl-edge of human nature as well ai thorough thor-ough unfitness for leadership That sounds to us like about the most sensible talk that has been aimed I at Mr Bryan for sixty days for it has been amazing to read his dictations to men who were eminent Democrats when he was a boy in schooL It has I boon all the more strange because Mr Bryan Is a Populist There was not a real Democratic plank in the platform plat-form cither platform on which he ran last year and as things are tending the next Democratic candidate for President will be named without counseling coun-seling With him and he will simply head the mlddleofthcroadcrs on an anarchy platform |
