Lincoln Neb June 29 William Jennings Bryan plans a vigorous drive in Ohio to win Taft’s home state and follows reports of a strong local reaction.

Bryan aims to mobilize radical Democrats and shield Harmon’s gubernatorial bid, with Ohio ahead as a major battleground and party unity at stake. Bryan also weighs Harmon's vice presidency and a campaign staff for Ohio, Lincoln, and Denver negotiations.
