Bryan and Judson Harmon were the guests of honor and principal speakers and the recipients of repeated ovations from the 16,000 persons who thronged the great hall. The meeting was essentially a Bryan affair, spontaneous enthusiasm marking every mention of hla candidacy for the presidency. The reception accorded Mr. Harmon was no leas cordial, and suggestions promising him high honors from his party were enthusiastically received. A feature of Mr. Bryan's speech was his approval of Senator La Follette as the Republican candidate for president. He said: If the president had picked out Senator La Follette, a real reformer; If the Republican party had rallied to Senator La Follettes support. It could have compelled the confidence of Senator La Folreform Republicans lette has a record as a reformer; he has fought corporate domination In his own state for a decade."
