Another difference In the situation la Jhe different attitude of the people. In 1910 the In surgents had the sympathy of the country. Today tne agricultural bloc la regarded with misgivings. The Republican Congress la now ajmplv en countering the .troubles former Democratic Con gresses have: met, with, n, top-heavy majorities.
