Hon. John H Atwood of Kansas is the author of an
article published in Sunday's Kansas City Post on Wm.
J. Bryan. The following paragraphs were Included in the
article:
Instinctively, we compare him with Roosevelt, and
the result is bound to be sntlthesis:
Bryan has the calm of steadfast purpose; Roosevelt
has the histerical activity of an epileptic.
Bryan would leave each man to manage his own
aflairs except as they effect others; Roosevelt would
regulate every man's affairs, from his spelling to the num-
ber of his children.
Bryan never had a personal controversy; Roosevelt
never permits the word "liar" to become rusty from dis-
use, and cannot forbear its use even in his public discus-
sions with women and clergymen, though no more Is in-
volved than the way in which a wolf kills a deer.
Bryan reasons and shows what should be, and why it
is right; Roosevelt dictates and says what shall be, giving
no reason except that it is his will.
With one the cross is the supreme symbol; with the
I other the big stick.
Bryan stands for a constitutional government; Roose-
velt stands for a personal government.
Bryan says there is no unwritten constitution; Roose
velt would enlarge the constitution by presidential procla-
mation.
Bryan is always just; Roosevelt is not just even to
the black soldiers whose bravery gave him his all of mili
tary glory.
Bryan would stand as the mediator between capital
and labor; Roosevelt would be master of both.
Bryan sees In a public office holder, a public servant
' Roosevelt sees in the presidency only a pivot on which to
revolve dictatorship.
The primal purpose of Roosevelt is to win; the primal
purpose of Bryan Is to be right.
