Defeated But Not Discouraged—He Knows That Republican Policy Can Never Prosper. W. J. Bryan gave out the following statement concerning the election, from his home in Lincoln, Nebraska. “The result was a surprise to me and the magnitude of the Republican yictory was a surprise to our oppon- énts as well as to those who yoted our ticket. Itisimpossible to analyze the returns until they are more com- plete, but speaking generally we seem to have gained in the large cities and to have lost in the smaller cities and in the country. “The Republicans were able to se- cure tickets or passes for all their voters who were away from home and this gave them considerable advant- age. We have no way of knowing at this time how much money was spent in the purchase of votes and in colon- ization. But while these would ac- count for some Republican gains they could not account for the widespread increase in the Republican vote. The prosperity argument was probably the most potent one used by the Republi- RYAN AND KILEY CARRY THE COUNTY STRONG Donohue for County Attorney and Vient for Judge of Probate are Defeated.

They compared present condi- tions with the panic times of 1893 to 1896 and this argument had weight with those who did not stop to con- sider the reasons for the change. The appeal, ‘Stand by the president while the war is on,” had a great deal of in- fluence among those who did not real- ize that a war against a doctrine of self government in the Philippines must react upon us in this country. We made an honest fight upon an honest platform and ‘having done our duty as we saw it, we have nothing to regret. “We are defeated but not discourag- ed. The fight must gocn, Iam sure that Republican policies will be repudiated by the people when the tendency of these policies are fully understood. The contest between plutocracy and democracy cannot end until one or the other is completely triumphant.” Concerning himself Mr. Bryan said: “IT have come vut. of the campaign with perfect health and a cleac con- science. Jdid mv utmost to bring success to the principles for which I stood. Mr. Stevenson did all he could: Senator Jones and the members of the Democratice, Populist Silver Re- 2 nae { publican and anti-imperialistic com- Mr. ° mittees did all they could. Hearst and his associates in the club organization put forth their best efforts. Our newspapers, our com- paign speeches and our local organ- izations all did their part. “T have no fault to find and no re- proaches. Ishall continue to take an active interest in politics as long asllive. I believe it to be the duty of the citizen to do so, and in addition tomy interest as a citizen, I feel that it will require a lifetime of work to repay the political friends who have done so much for me. I shall not bea senatorial candidate before the legislature which has been elect- ed. Senator Allen deserves the sena- torship which goes to the Populists. Mr. Hitchcock and Mr. W. IL. Thom- son are avowed candidates for the senatorship. They both deserve well of the party and I am too grateful to them for past support to stand in their way, even if I desired a seat in the senate.” Mr. Bryan said he has no other plans at present than to remain at home until he has recovered from the fatigue of campaigning. He denied the report that he would remove from Nebraska and make Texas his home. Statement by Mr. Towne. Personally I confess to have mis- read grievously the signs of the times. This was an easy error, because my premises were wrong. I trusted too much to the theory that a wide diffu- sion of education and a long inheri- tance of the world’s experience must have qualified the American people to solve a problem never hitherto solved by anation, Under similar circum- stances every preceding Democracy in history has done exactly the same thing. From the time when Esau sold his birthright fora mess of pottage, men, at recurring intervals, have trafficked liberty for bread. In a per- sonal letter received by me during the campaign of 1896, from one of the greatest contemporary historians, he said: ‘‘I hope the fight may be won, but Ido not think it can be. My study of history has convinced me that the power of concentrated wealth, when at harmony with itself, is irresistible.” Against. this judgment my optimism then rebelled. Iam not sure now, however, but my friend was right. Certainly wealth was never so concen- trated, never so unified as now. Cer- tainly never before so plainly exhibit- edits program. ‘The power of the few was never so openly and defiantly asserted. The great speculative banks have not disguised their intention to obtain control of the money system. The trust monopolies have brazealy paraded their partnership with the government. The very rich have been almost as bold in declaring their refusal to bear their proportionate burden of the public expenses as were the nobles of France in the last quarter of the eighteenth century. Witness their opposition to the gradu- ated income tax; their systematic evasion of a fair assessment of per- sonal property; their conscienceless facility in accomplishing instantane- ous changes of residence to dodge the tax-gather, of which the vice pre- sident-elect himself gave so memor- able an exhibition a couple of years ago. In the campaign just closed the substitution of force for consent as the basis of government was avowed- ly the theory of the proposed colonial system. and right of conquest, plus power of purchase, was pleaded as one people’s excuse for making a bloody war of subjugation upon another. The elimination of all real popular participation in a government still supposed to be “of, for and by the people,” could not be more absolute andcomplete. The voters have been ‘plainly told from nearly every Repub- lican stump and by most Republican newspapers, that the money question should be left to the bankers, the trust question to the capitalists, the taxation question to the rich, the question of abondoning the constitu; tion and establishing colonies to the administration. What remains to the people? Nothing. On all these sub- jects as to which policies have not already been declared, no definite roposition has been submitted to the people; they are merely asked to vote a blind confidence and absolute power. Mr.‘Hanna says in one breath that there are no trusts; in the next that there are good ones and bad ones, and in the next that the way to get rid of them if there are any, is to trust the organization to which practically all of them belong. The Republican platform declares that the party pro- poses to give to the newly acquired colonies such measure of selfgovern: ment as guits their welfare and our duty. hatis that measure? Na.
