BRYAN AND KERN ISSUE APPEAL
TO FARMERS.
Iowa Farmer, Formerly a Republican,
Gives $100 for Campaign ..
Fund?Bryan on Brownsville
Affair.
Fairview, Lincoln. Neb., .Inly 17.?
Following his declainfion of yesterday
to I lie (bill imore Sim tlmt lie had
nol discussed |he Brownsville affair
or the (|iicst ion of the appoint merit of
negroes to olliee. \V. !irvan today
announced that he did not wish to he
misunderstood. lie said he did not
mean to convey I lie impression that
he liad never talked nhoul the
Brownsville case in any manner, hut
that he had no) discussed it as an issue
in the present campaign. While
he had lot read the evidence hearing
on that subject, lie recalled an editorial
written by him two years ago, in
which he made the frank assertion, if
the fads were as stated, President
Roosevelt was fully justified in his
ci >11 rse.
Visitors to the Ibyan home were
less numerous today than on yesterday.
The principal caller was John
I'-. Lamb of Indiana, hut lie declined
to make any statement as to the subject
of his ennversar?on.
Tonight Mr. Bryan went in to Lincoln
i<> at t end a Masonic meeting and
two hours afterwards received at his
home a la rye delegation from the local
t 'ent raI I .ahot* unv >n.
The !ir>l appeal for campaign contributions
by the Democratic candidates
fi?r the presidency and the
vice residency was issued today, directed
to the farmers of the country,
(t i> as follows;
"To the Farmers of the t'nited
Stall's:
''The I'ir-t contribution made to
the Democratic <-aiiip:iiiz'ii fund this,
year. far as we know, was made I
hyan Iowa tanner. .1 u ? I before the
Denver convention met this man, who
modestly prefers ih?l to have his name
mentioned, journeyed more than 1 Oil
miles to Lincoln with his contribution
of $101), which he left with Mr. Bryan
to be given to the committee when
organized for the campaign.
"This farmer was horn in Sweden
ami for some time after he was naturalized
was a member of the Republican
party. I bit lie was a student of
public i ('lesl ions and in lhe course of I
finie became a Democrat. To manifest
his deep interest in the success
of the party and the triumph of Democrat
ie principles he made this free
will oiT?'rim: to the e-:?ipaign fund.
"It is \ r\ appropriate that this '
first ? >;,! licit ion -Iambi come from
that b??l\ of - n- population ,
Iviinwn a- avriculi urist s. The farmer j
has nothing to gain by privilege and
favoritism; hi- hope i< in the application
of the doctrinr or 'equal rights
to all and special privileges to none."
lie has been the victim of all special
legislation and has snPPered from control
of politics hv the great predatory
corporations. Now that the Democratic
party has announced its determination
ot to acerpf contributions
from corporations and not t<? accept
e\ces>i\e contributions even from individuals
and to publish all contributions
\? lien - over a reasonable tnininmm.
I to be al?'e to secure a
stiflici'Mi; s.iiii I'rom the citizens who
ask from the goverr.mcnl nothing but
protect ion of their rights and consideration
for the general welfare. There
are hundreds of thousands of fanners
who ace abundantly aide to conrtibute
to tiie campaign fund. There
are thousands who could give $|u0i
apiece without feeling it; (here are!
tens ot thousands who could give $">0
apiece without sacrifice and siill
more who could uive $?J.> or 'fit) or $ ">.
"As 11 it* national committee has not
yet been organized we will ask the
Commoner to call for subscriptions
to this farmers' fund. Those giving
t'mi\ indicate whether they are willing
to have their names mentioned and
if the contribution is not more than
$100 their wishes will be complied
with. All contrilmt ions above $100
must be made known, no matter from
whom they come.
* uThe farmers' fund will be turned
over to the national committee as soon
as its permanent oflieers have been
selected. Who will be the first to
respond? The Denver convention was
a people's convention; it would adopted
a strong, clear, honest platform
and its nominations were named with
practical unanimity. Our fight is a
fight for the whole people. Our aim
is equal and exact justice to all; oud
purpose is to restore the government
to the hands of freely chosen representatives
of the voters. How many
farmers will join in furnishing (lie
fund necessary to present the issues'?
