Dayton, Tenn., July 7.—The contest
between evolution and Christianity is
“a duel to the death,” William Jenn
ings Bryan declared tonight in an ad
dress at a dinner given in his honor
by the progressive Daytoh club in the
dining room of the Hotel Aqua.
“It has been in the past a death
grapple in the dark,” said Mr. Bryan,
who arrrived here today in prepara
tion for the Jtrial of John T.. Scopes,
who is charged with violating the
Tennessee stautue aganist teaching
evolu.ion theories in the schools of
Tennessee.
“From this time on it will be a
de .th grapple in the light.”
.Mr. Bryan, who is associated with
counsel for the prosecution of the
young high school instructor, was
guest of the club which two weeks
ago entertained Clarence Darrow t>f
defense counsel, in the same dining
room. The fundamentalist leader was
introduced tonight by Wallace Hag
gard, a member of the prosecution
counsel. A welcome to Dayton was
extended by John L. Godsey, local
member of defense counsel.
One issue of the coming trial, which
is scheduled to begin next Friday, is
whether the people shall rule in the
United States, the speaker asserted
The people are only soured of the
power, he said, and will in the end
control.
The dinner ended a day which for

“Opponents of Christianity under-
sta,nd tbe character of the struggle,”
Mr. Bryan declared, and from hence
forward Christians^ will understand its
character he said. Christians, he said,
believing that “revealed religion of
mankind the only abiding truth will
fight evolution as their only great foe.
If they are wrong they will of course
be defeated and will be compelled to
abandon the Bible as the word of God,
he declared.
■. “If information furnished at the
trial and brought out afterwards be-1
cause of the trial shows evolution to
be unproven and therefore unworthy
of acceptance, science will have to
fall back upon demonstrated truth,
which has no terrors for Christianity.
“Christianity is not afraid of truth,”
Mr. Bryan exclaimed. “It only opposes
hypothesis put forth in the name of
science but unsupported by facts.”
Mr. Bryan’s “third point” concerned
“the fundamental principle of our
government. . —
“Shall the people rule?” he cried,

the basic principle of the Tennessee
anti-evolution law was the theory that
the people, speaking through the leg
islature, have a right to control the

Speaks After Dinner
Mr. Bryan spoke following the din
ner, which was attended by John T.
Scopes, members.of counsel for both
parties to the suit, leaders in Dayton’s
civic life, and newspaper men. He
avoided details of the Seopfes case,
saying the case would npt be tried in
the newspapers but in the court. Three condition,
points, he said, he could discuss with !
propriety.
Referring to the size of Dayton, Mr.
Bryan, said that “some of the city

The newspaper critics who have
been making fun of Dayton should
read the. front page of the book which
gave rise to this trial.
The biology which the defendant
was teaching has as its frontisipiece a
picture of a crowded city street and
just below it the picture of a farm
house on a quiet road.
Beneath the pictures is a suggestion
upon which .the city editors might re
flect with profit. This is the comment
that the author of the book makes
upon the two ^pictures contrasted:
Compare the unfavorable artificial en-
politics by the very general disre

wishes to live in peace it will have to
