The Demagogue by Werner Biggeron

A satirical critique in verse unfolds, debating whether Bryan is a demagogue or a hero, contrasting demagogic tactics with lofty ideals. The piece cites Lincoln and Bryan, condemns tyrants, and questions ambition, power, and the fate of freedom amid political rhetoric. Mixed OCR text includes financial ledger listings and stray proper names embedded in the scan.
