Bryan Acceptance Letter Sets Defense of Direct Democracy
William Jennings Bryan champions the 1900 Democratic platform in a letter of acceptance. He pledges not to seek re election, supports anti monopoly measures, bimetallism, direct Senator elections, and a department of labor, while denouncing trusts and imperialism and urging arbitration and arid land reclamation. He argues for Monroe doctrine fidelity and warns against European entanglements.
