Bryan Harp on Cleveland Rouses Democratic Debate
The letter argues that neither Grover Cleveland nor William Jennings Bryan warrants harsh attacks from Democrats. It notes Cleveland avoided responding to Bryan’s charges, while Bryan continues to criticize Cleveland. The writer urges Bryan to focus on promoting his cause rather than denouncing opponents.

The Cleveland third term push collapsed after an ex-president appeared at a meeting supporting Booker Washington’s institution. The St Louis Globe Democrat argued a democrat who favors such positions cannot gain party favors, signaling despair for a Cleveland nomination. The piece notes the country’s sovereignty and growing public control over capital, while praising ongoing trust reform and de-emphasizing the trust issue in future politics.

Democratic style of government in Missouri questioned
