WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN spoke to a great audience at tho Salt Lake theatre Wednesday Wednes-day nigjit following a brief sprint across a section of the state in an auto, consorted by the machines of many Democrats who greeted him at Provo. Mr. Bryan devoted considerable of Ills oratorical effort to an "unmasking" "unmask-ing" of Colonel Roosevelt, who, he said, had been an advocate of the j initiative and referendum for only two years. Up In "the gallery a spectator spec-tator wondered how long Mr. Wilson liad supported this feature of progress pro-gress and the Nebraskan was floored by the Question. After trying to show that Wilson Is the only simon-pure Progressive and that Roosevelt has been a Progressive only two yeirs, tho Nobraskan was forced to admit that It had been "about throe years' since Wilson began to oxprnsa a belief In tho initiative and referendum. Mr. Bryan's speech will be of Inestimable In-estimable value to the Bull Moo3e because be-cause of his clear, powerful "analysis i of the theft pulled off by tho Repub-llcan Repub-llcan party at Chicago, but, ,as usual, Mr. Bryan refrained from attempting to prove that his oandldate possessed any of -the qualifications which ho asserted as-serted the others lacked.
