Bryan and Olney clash over Iowa politics and Porter
The piece skewers Walter D. Olney for distributing political literature and past scandal, arguing his anti Bryan stance and ties to Cummins are flawed. It notes Olney’s divorce, alleged acts, and calls Bryan supporters to beware. It cites New York World’s view of Iowa progressives and mocks Porter’s election prospects.
