Bryan in West Virginia Campaign Feels Republican Promises Lacking
Democratic standard bearer William Jennings Bryan pressed through West Virginia delivering about twenty speeches to farmers and miners. He challenged Republicans to back up promises of prosperity with action and faulted Taft for aiding a regime aligned with Wall Street. Bryan defended labor interests amid a coal region tour and received rousing crowds including a Charleston demonstration. He prepared a reply to Roosevelt’s criticism but did not complete it before nightfall.
