Bryan Drops Money Question In Democratic Editorial
In a Lincoln Nebraska dispatch, William Jennings Bryan announces in a forthcoming Commoner editorial that the money question will not be detailed as in the Chicago Platform. He asserts the principle of bimetallism remains vindicated and broadly recognized, urging equal rights and fair application of law for all Americans and opposition to special favors. He condemns radicalism and defends a sane, safe monetary system against coteries benefiting the few.
