William Jennings Bryan On Imperialism
Speeches and essays by william jennings bryan about the SpanishAmericanand Philippine-American wars and United States imperialism, 1898-1913.

Extractions: Women's History Month Resources William Jennings Bryan on Imperialism By Jim Zwick A lthough often described by scholars focusing on presidential politics as the champion of the anti-imperialist cause, William Jennings Bryan (1860-1925) had an uneasy relationship with the organized anti-imperialist movement. Unlike many other Democratic politicians, he never joined the Anti-Imperialist League. In 1898 and 1899, while the League was organizing opposition to ratification of the Treaty of Paris, Bryan supported ratification. The National Liberty Congress of Anti-Imperialists held by the League in August 1900 urged support for Bryan during the presidential campaign that year but his position on the Treaty of Paris, his financial policies, and his relationships with racist Southern Democrats alienated many anti-imperialists. Thomas Mott Osborne , Oswald Garrison Villard, John Jay Chapman and others tried to organize a third party opposed to both William McKinley's imperialism and Bryan's free-silver financial policy. Unable to recruit a prominent anti-imperialist Republican to head the ticket and failing to gain support from the Anti-Imperialist League, that movement collapsed. Many other anti-imperialists voted for McKinley in 1900, though, as the League was unable to make imperialism the "paramount issue" of the campaign while Bryan was the Democratic presidential candidate. Bryan remained a controversial figure, but the Democratic Party consistently supported Philippine independence in its campaign platforms and the Anti-Imperialist League endorsed the party in every presidential campaign from 1900 to 1920.

Extractions: Women's History Month Resources Imperialism By William Jennings Bryan Speech delivered by Mr. Bryan in response to the Committee appointed to notify him of his nomination to the presidency, at Indianapolis, August 8, 1900. M r. Chairman and Members of the Notification Committee: I shall, at an early day, and in a more formal manner accept the nomination which you tender, and I shall at that time discuss the various questions covered by the Democratic platform. It may not be out of place, however, to submit a few observations at this time upon the general character of the contest before us and upon the question which is declared to be of paramount importance in this campaign. When I say that the contest of 1900 is a contest between Democracy on the one hand and plutocracy on the other I do not mean to say that all our opponents have deliberately chosen to give to organized wealth a predominating influence in the affairs of the Government, but I do assert that on the important issues of the day the Republican party is dominated by those influences which constantly tend to substitute the worship of mammon for the protection of the rights of man. In 1859 Lincoln said that the Republican party believed in the man and the dollar, but that in case of conflict it believed in the man before the dollar. This is the proper relation which should exist between the two. Man, the handiwork of God, comes first; money, the handiwork of man, is of inferior importance. Man is the master, money the servant, but upon all important questions today Republican legislation tends to make money the master and man the servant.

About the 1925 Scopes Trial (held at the Rhea County Courthouse in Dayton) and bryan's role.
http://www.bryan.edu/historical/wjbryan_trial/index.html

Extractions: In his political life, Bryan viewed his role as doing God's work. He was U.S. Representative from Nebraska to Congress in 1891-95. At thirty-six he was nominated for president in 1896 by the Democrats and seven other parties. Although he received forty-seven percent of the vote and won in more states and territories than William McKinley, voting fraud stole six states from Bryan, and he lost this election and those of 1900 and 1908. In 1912 Bryan helped Woodrow Wilson get elected, and Wilson named Bryan his Secretary of State. While in this office for three years, Bryan negotiated peace treaties with thirty nations and helped promote Wilson's progressive policies and strengthen the U.S. position in the Caribbean. During the fifteen years he was the leader of the Democratic Party, Bryan also acted as the watchdog of Congress and the conscience of the country. BRYAN - POLICIES AND PROGRAMS When asked how he could be a progressive in politics and a fundamentalist in religion, Bryan replied, "Government is man-made and therefore imperfect. It can always be improved. But religion is not a man-made affair. . .I am satisfied with the God we have, with the Bible and with Christ." As the best-known spokesman for the fundamentalist movement of his day, Bryan believed in the divine verbal inspiration of the Bible; the deity, virgin birth, resurrection and miracles of Christ; and the sufficiency of Christ's substitutionary death on the cross for the sins of all who believe in Christ as their personal savior.

Extractions: Women's History Month Resources The Man with the Hoe By William Jennings Bryan New York Journal, rpt. The Commoner Condensed (New York: The Abbey Press, 1902). The Democratic candidate for the presidency in 1896 and 1900, William Jennings Bryan (1860-1925) was the most prominent national political figure identified with the populist cause at the turn of the twentieth century. Both the San Francisco Examiner, in which "The Man with the Hoe" first appeared, and the New York Journal were owned by William Randolph Hearst. I t is not strange that Edwin Markham's poem entitled "The Man with the Hoe" created a profound sensation. It is a sermon addressed to the heart, and its lesson is not limited to any nation, race or clime. It voices humanity's protest against inhuman greed. There is a majestic sweep to the argument, and some of the lines pierce like arrows: Is this the Thing the Lord God made and gave To have dominion over sea and land; To trace the stars and search the heavens for power;

Extractions: William Jennings Bryan, (1860-1925), American political and religious leader, who was known as the "Great Commoner." He intuitively sensed the feelings of the common man and was able to give them eloquent articulation. A persistent agitator, he acted as the conscience of the nation in opposing special privileges for favored groups. Although he was thwarted three times in bids for the presidency, everything reasonable in his political program has since become law. Bryan was born in Salem, Ill., on March 19, 1860. He graduated from Illinois College in Jacksonville, Ill., in 1881 and received a law degree from the Union College of Law in Chicago in 1883. He practiced law in Jacksonville for the next four years. In 1887 he moved to Nebraska, and in 1890 he was the second DEMOCRAT elected to CONGRESS from that heavily REPUBLICAN state. He was reelected in 1892 but declined to run in 1894. While seeking nomination as U. S. senator (1893 and 1895), he stumped widely for free coinage of silver (see FREE SILVER) and for tariff reform and an income tax. Presidential Candidate At the Chicago Democratic National Convention of 1896, Bryan boosted his chances for the presidential nomination with his now-famous "Cross of Gold" speechin which he argued the case for free silver ("You shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns, you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold" ) and by his availability to other parties. Although he became the candidate of four parties (Democratic, Populist, Silver Republican, and National Silver), Bryan was defeated by William

Extractions: Shane Hamilton, Web Editor Bryan, William Jennings Political leader (1860-1925) Born in Salem, Illinois, he studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1883. After moving to Nebraska, he was elected to the House of Representatives in 1890 and served two terms. Though defeated in an 1894 Senate race and never again elected to public office, Bryan remained a highly influential national figure. Rooted in agrarian populism, he advocated low tariffs, free silver, direct election of senators, the income tax, aid to farmers, the minimum wage, and women's suffrage. He also became known as a rousing, impassioned orator. At the 1896 Democratic convention, he mesmerized delegates with his famous "Cross of Gold" speech and ended up the party's presidential nominee. He ran for president on the Democratic ticket three times (1896, 1900, 1908) but lost each election. Cartoon depicts William Jennings Bryan "Tryin Bryan served in the Spanish-American War, but he staunchly opposed imperialist policies in his presidential campaigns. In 1901, he founded the journal The Commoner to promote his brand of populism. He supported Woodrow Wilson in the 1912 election and became Wilson's secretary of state the following year. During the First World War, he advocated strict neutrality and eventually resigned in 1915 over Wilson's pro-Allies policies. A devout Christian all his life, Bryan spent his later years campaigning for prohibition and against the teaching of evolution. In 1925, he served as prosecutor in the infamous "monkey trial" of John Scopes, a Tennessee teacher arrested for teaching evolution.

Extractions: WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN : The Paralyzing Influence of Imperialism Source: Official Proceedings of the Democratic National Convention Held in Kansas City, Mo., July 4, 5 and 6, 1900, Chicago, 1900, pp. 205-227. IF IT IS RIGHT for the United States to hold the Philippine Islands permanently and imitate European empires in the government of colonies, the Republican Party ought to state its position and defend it, but it must expect the subject races to protest against such a policy and to resist to the extent of their ability. The Filipinos do not need any encouragement from Americans now living. Our whole history has been an encouragement, not only to the Filipinos but to all who are denied a voice in their own government. If the Republicans are prepared to censure all who have used language calculated to make the Filipinos hate foreign domination, let them condemn the speech of Patrick Henry. When he uttered that passionate appeal, "Give me liberty or give me death," he expressed a sentiment which still echoes in the hearts of men. Let them censure Jefferson; of all the statesmen of history none have used words so offensive to those who would hold their fellows in political bondage. Let them censure Washington, who declared that the colonists must choose between liberty and slavery. Or, if the statute of limitations has run against the sins of Henry and Jefferson and Washington, let them censure Lincoln, whose Gettysburg speech will be quoted in defense of popular government when the present advocates of force and conquest are forgotten.

http://www.agribusinesscouncil.org/bryan.htm

Extractions: William Jennings Bryan, three-time Democratic nominee for President (1896, 1900, 1908) and one of Americas greatest leaders/orators as the nation came of age at the turn of the 20 th century, left an enormous legacy of achievement and public service which has been largely unheralded or forgotten. A lawyer by training, Bryan hailed from rural Illinois and Nebraska where he rose rapidly as a young legislator (U.S. House of Representatives, 1892-1896) and a populist leader championing the farmer and the worker. Bryans famous Cross of Gold speech at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in 1896 propelled him to the nomination as one of the youngest presidential contenders in U.S. history. Boy Bryan barely lost to William McKinley, a Republican, in an election which historians have largely agreed was fraudulently manipulated and coerced by monied legions of the robber barons and big business (i.e., J.P. Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, and others).
