BRRLIN, Nov. 6.—The Cologne Volkes- bung, the leading conservative organ, dis- cussing the growth of the United States in population and wealth, says: “A tari® war could be waged against the United Btates only by the European states com- bined. It Germany alone were to make the attempt its Industries and commerce would have to foot the bill, while other na- tions would get the advantage.

BRYAN SWEARS IN HIS VOTE r- Puston ndidate Returns to His Home After a Night in Omaha, LINCOLN, Nov. 6.—~Mr. Bryan cast Bis vote at 11:10 o'clock. The place at which he exercised tkis public duty was Nose house No. 3, a half dozen blocks from Bis place of residence ou B street. The emony was witnessed by half a hundred idents who were congregated in the hose Bouse and a dozen or 80 of newspaper men who followed Mr. Bryan from the railroud station. Before going to the voting place Mr. Bryan repaired to the city bhall, whera Re filled out a certificate stating that he d failled to register because of absen from the city. The clerk at the city ball who supplicd him with a certificate also @lspensed to all who would receive them yellow badges bearing the Inscription: 1 #m a republican,” and he seemed quite as wuch occupled with one duty as the other. There was quite a processton from the eity ball to the voting place, consisting vt eftizens and mewspaper men In carriages and & oumber of Mr. Bryan's neighbors on oot, who escorted him to the voting place He reached the fire company's house sbout 11 o'clock and immediately proceeded to the rear of the bullding, where the vot- fog corner was roped off from the re: mainder of the house. He was, of course Fecognized by almost every one present and & general handkhakiug ensued. Two free- Bolders of his ward, one a republican and the other a democrat, volunteered to stand for him, and they, us well as Mr. Bryan, were sworn as to the facts in the case. The presidential candidate was granted no exemption by the judge of election, Rev. Mr Ludden, a Lutheran minister of repub- Mcan prociivities. Mr, Bryan was required to glve his place of residence, the state where be was born and also inform the offi elals as to how long he had lived in the precinct, the ward and tho stute. Having obtalned this information, Mr. Ludden esked Mr. Bryan, i uccordance with the Jaw of the state, whether he wished to sta e the name of the party with which he afil- fated. To this Mr. Bryan promptly re- sponded: “The democratle party,” and with & smile he added: “With friendly feelings toward two others.” After (his Mr. Bryan took the ballot which was Banded him, entered & booth and prepared ft. Emerging from the booth, he @ropped the ballot into the tin box pre- pared for that purpose and the vote was given the number 183. As he was votlng overal cameras were turned upon him and tho election judge requested all prescat to | remove their hats, The request promptly complied with. As Mr. was Bryan It is because Ayer's Hair Vigor is & hair-food ; goes right dowa 1o the roots of the har; fecds the bair bulbs just the way they used to be fed whea you were younger and more vigoroug: That's why the dark, rich color of early life always comes back to your gny bar The beir grows longer, too. he, Vi, s, R Oset A ahe ‘adiress, Di'J. ¢l AT R, Lowelly e of Caba I8 Not to Be | THE OMAHA left the booth he was asked If he had cast @ straight baliot, to which he replied: “Yes, the electoral candidates are all triends of mntne.’ The voting over, Mr. Bryan was escorted to his home and there made a briof address to the friends assembled. Standing on his tront porch, he satd “Gentlemen, 1 want to thank you for the loyalty you have shown, not only in this campalgn, but in the campalgns which have preceded it, and I hope that within twelve hours we may be able to meet again and rejolos over a victory. We opened this campalgn at Kansas City by indorsing the laration of Independence, written by Thomas Jefferson. I want to close this cam- palgn by reading an extract from a speech | made by Abraham Lincoln, for, In this cam- | palgn we have been quoting the speeches of Lincoln and f{avoking his authority, as Lincoln, In his frst eampalgn, quoted from the utterances of Jefferson and lavoked his autkority “‘Mauy free countries have lost thelr Iiberties, and ours may lose hers, but it she shall, may it be my proudest plume, not that T was the last to desert her, but that 1 never deserted her.' “I will add that T think we shall sue- ceed today. But If we fall, be It 0. We sball have the proud consolation of saying to our consclence and to the departed shade of our country's freedomn that the course ap- proved by our judgment and adored by our bearts, fn disaster, in change, in torture, in death, we never faltered in defending.” The brief address was recelved with cheers and the party took its leave, giving Mr. Bryan a few hours with his family. He repaired to his home and was sound asleep fifteen minutes after he entered the house. GLOOM AT BRYAN'S HOUSE and i Dispatehes from Poughkeepaie ant Foreshadow Neo brask s Defen Nov. 6.—Mr, Bryan received election returns at his residence o this city His hcvse was falrly overrun by newspaper men and telegraph operators. Not only was the fizst floor of the house largely given up to them, but two of the rooms in the ond story also. Four telegraph wires ran te the house. Mr. Bryan had with him his brother, Charl Bryau; his former law partrer, ex atate Senator Talbot; National Committeeman Dahlman and Attorney Schmidt. Mre.Bryan had panions a cousin, Mrs. Rogers, and Mrs. Dahlman. Mr. Bryan took his dinner a little after § o'clock and later spent a few minutes in conversation with the newspaper men, referring to the bulletins received and asking some questions about different states, but without venturing any opinion | upon ‘the fgures. The first ‘bulletin in was the one announcing that Poughkeepsie, . Y., had given McKinley a majority of 1,337, and this was quickly followed by | another bullctin to the effect that Elmira had gone {n Mr. Bryan's favor to the ex- tent of 1,722 majority, When shown this message he slmply remarked that it was encouraging. The other bulletins from New York camo in thick and fast after that and while Mr. Bryan made no comment, there was a feel- ing among those present that he was disap- pointed in the returns from New York City and Brooklyn. His reports up to the last concerning those cities had been en- couraging and his own observations had led him to belleve that there would be a larger increase in his vote, rather than a loss. On the other hand, there was con- slderable encouragement from the Interior of New York state, and especially gratity- ing was a message from National Commit- teeman Mack, saying that Buffalo had gone republican by a majority of only about 2,000, against a majority of 12,000 four years sgo. Coming closely upon the heels of the Buffalo dispatch was one from a friend in Boston announcing that city to have gono for Bryan by a majority of 7,000, as Agalust 17,000 for McKinley four years ago. The early dispatches indicated the loss of Maryland aund this also was a disap- pointment, for it had been belleved that that state was fairly safe for the demo- cratic ticket. After receiving the earller returns in his library, In the midst of his friends, Mr. Bryan retired to his private apartments, which were connected with the outside world by a special wire. Both he and Mrs. Bryan were in cheerful mood and a person unacquainted with the circumstances would never have dreamed from thefr demeanor that they were at this time the center of national interest At 8 o'clock, when the newspaper men congregated a* Mr. Bryan's house and sought to secure a statement from him, they were told that he had just gone to sleep and could not be disturbed. When he retired to his own room he glanced over the returns with apparent Interest and then, expressing a desire to make up some of the rest he had lost In the last few weeks, lay down and was asleep In lgss than five minutes. He had slept an hour in the afternoon, after which he went for a horseback ride to his farm. He did not, however, feel fully recuperated and therefore sought additional rest, thus man- itesting probably less concern than hun- dreds of thousands of his followers. Beujamin Harrison Votes, INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 6.—Benjamin Har- rison walked to a livery stable in East Sixteenth street three blocks from his home at 12:20 today and voted. The crowd at the polling place made way for the former president, who was inside the booth only a short time. He then walked back to his home, WEST VIRGINIA WHEFLING, W.
