It will be necessary to regal ncontroof the party organization To do thisthe frindof reform throughout theentire country must work together Ademocratic paper of national scope offers the best means for carrying onthis work and the Commoner occupiesthis field The campaign of educationand organization which Mr Bryan an¬

nounces will becarried on through TheCommoner will not only be interestingand instructive but every democratand independent thinker should receiveThe Commoner regularly so as to keepin touch with the progress the reformforces are making and to fortify him¬

self with facts and arguments to convin ehis republican neighbor that thedemocratic party offers the surest re-
