The Fiddling Senator From Tennes see Talks Politics-Declares That the Sentiment for the Nebraskan the Country Over is Tremendous. Zach McGhee in Charlotte Observer. Washington. Sept. 3.--Senator Bob Taylor, Fiddling Bob, Yarning Bob, but ever interesting and perennially picturesque Bob, of Tennessee, you Sknow, leaned slightly forward, spit a sousing flood of tobacco juice into or partly into a spittoon about six feet away, wallowed his tobacco quid around his mouth a time or two and in his familiar droll drawl spak'e thus: "'I have jvi<t comne b)ack from a trip K* v as. Nebraska Zanid India na. I have been lect viring at (Chautauquas six nights a week. You know the Chant auquQ movement all throug that country out there is something tremendous. They come from far and Swide by the thousand, come in their covered wagons, and camp just like the old time Methodist camp-meeting, and, my soul alive, they have every kind of entertainment a man can think of, music, moving pictures, lec tures, ever' kind of thing. That's what I've been doing. I just stood on the platform and turned loose on 'em what I had. And they stood it re markable well, too, considerin'. Great Bryan Sentiment. "Politics." he went on, stopping now and then to shift the tobacco quid. "why, you never heard tell of the politics there is out there. No body's mad, though; everybody in the best of humor. I would just sit about after I got through my little plat form business, and listen to 'em. They don't mind saying wvhat they are going to do. either. And I tell you the sentiment for Bryan is some thing tremendous.' The senator was sitting on a, sofa in his room at his hotel here last night when I -called on him. He had shut himself up in this room for some rea son or other so that at the desk in the hotel office the elerk said to me, "He isn 't stopping here." This was stri'nge, I had been told by a friend he was there, and I so said to snie clerk. "I haven't seen him," he said. "He isn't stopping here." "Hasn't been here ?" I asked. "No," he replied, but as I was turning away, he observed, ''if you 'will give me your car'd I will see if I can find him." The significant way he said this brougin the card at once, and after the porter had once taken me to the wrong room. to ex-Senator Welling ton, of Maryland. with whom I was forced to talk tfor about fi tteen m in utes because he had my card on his table nind thought it had been sent to him, and another little wait I was 5s1iV n :nto th~o room of "Fiddliun Bob,'" who evns all smiles as he usu us:ial1. h ..

"poni mfy soul'' he anweed " a believe Kansas will go Democratic.' t Will Pull Republican Votes. 1 "I heard numbers of men out there ' talk this way, 'I've been a Republi- ei can and have always voted the Re- si publican ticket, but I'm going to vote w for Bryan. We've tried to down e Bryan in every way because we f< thought he was not safe, that he was all wind and that sort of thing, it but he just will not down. After it both his overwhelming defeats he has w shown himself a big enough man to n absolutely dominate the Democratic el party and to keep up a big enthus- j iasm for him in all parts of the coun- p try. He is far bigger today than lie el ever was, and he always has had the w interest of the people at heart, and ti I'm just going to vote for him. Of s< course.

''*1 He is Convinced. le That there is nothing new, as oth- m ers who have come from the West el have told us before. bnt the Tennes- f see senator :md leel'tr' says he has b heard so much of this s( rt of talk h that lie is convinced that the co)tntry cl is for Bryan.

Of course, erybody knows there are reasons >r such an assertion. In the first place, with the increase size of the hat comes the increase the bill-and that is a subject orth mentioning. Secondly, the ?rve-raeking, soul-piercing, altogeth "-hurtful propensities of the Merry Tidows have already overstepped the tience that a mere man is said nev to possess.
