\ B | { I Nebraska BRYAN INCLUDES ALL WETS IN BAN Friends in Lincoin Say He Is Laying Plans for National Fight. NOT ONLY LEGISLATURE (From a.Staft Correspondent.) Lincoln, Oct. 31.—(Spécial.)—"“At- tempts of the Hitchcock-Mullen-Ne- ville p’r:ss to convey the impression that Mr. Bryan only refers to the leg- islative candidates ajen he says that only dry candidates shall be voted for makes me laugh,” said a well known democrat today, who is cery close to Mr. Bryan. Further than this the gentleman would not talk for publication, but The Bee, desiring-to discover whether this was the opinion of only one man, hunted up another well known Bryan democrat, and one who has been in the close’ counsels of the Bryans, and asked him if it were true that Mr. Bryan referred only to the legislative candidates. “Did not Mr. Bryan say in his g speech that he was preparing the way for a fight for national prohibition?” answered the man. “Can the interests of nationathmhibiliou or statewide prohibition be subserved by the elec- tion of a wet candidate for the United States senate or a wet candidate for the United States congress, or a wet candidate for the governorship of this state?” Enthusiastic Rally Is Held at Oakland Oakland, Neb., Oct. 31.—(Special.) —An enthusiastic old-time republican rally was held here Saturday night.

Devoe, candidate for attorney general, and C. Petrus Peter- son of Lincoln. Mr. Peterson made the principal address of the evening. - Bryan Makes Addresses In Humboldt and Pawnee Pawnee City, Neb,, Oct. 31.—(Spe- cial Telegram.)—W. J. Bryan spoke to a good-sized audience from the court house steps in_this city this eve- ning. Mr. Bryan came here from Humboldt by automobile and arrived late. Before he arrived Governor Morehead and Judge E. O. Kretsinger »of Beatrice addressed the people who had assembled to hear the ex-secre- tary of state. Mr. Bryan made a plea for the pro- hibitory ‘amendment and made the statement that he would not vote for a wet candidate under any considera- tion. He further stated if two candi- dates for the same office were dry he would vote for the driest. Mr. Bryan endorsed the candidacy of Joha A. Maguire for congress from the. First district, seemingly ovérlook- ing flie fact that while a member of congress Mr. Maguire voted against submitting a prohibition amendment to the United States eonstitution. HYMENEAL.

Peterson Calls Neville \ Bloomfield, Neb., Oct. 31.—(Spe- cial.)—*“Hand-picked and recently dis- covered, not by the people, but by a political boss,” was the characteriza- tion given by C. Petrue Peterson, city attorney of Lincoln, in referring to Keith Neville in a political address held tonight. A crowd of 500 people listened to Mr. Peterson and applauded his de- nunciation of Millen and his attack on the attorney general for his alleged failure to enforce the law. Mr. Peter- son said: “In the state of Nebraska the demo- cratic party is presenting the issue of whether we shall have a hand-picked governor, recently discovered, not by the people, but by a political boss, or a man who owes his election to the electorate of the state; whether we shall have an attorney general who states that his office is not respon- sible for the enforcement of the law, or a man who takes the position that the attorney general is the chief law- enforcing officer of the state.” Hebron Restaurant Burned. Hebron, Neb., Oct. 31.—(Special Telegram.)—Fire of unknown origin started in the front part of M. A. Mendenhall’s restaurant sabout mid- night and before the volunteer fire department could extinguish it every- thing in the room was destroyed. Mr. Mendenhall's family living on the second floor had a narrow escape, as the fire had a big start before they were aroused. Dr. U. H. Squier lost all his office furniture and some of his professional equipment. The room is a part of the Hebron Stdte bank building. The fire did not rgach the bank nor none of the other “f- fices in the building. Mr. Menden- hall's loss is covered with insurance. Got auything you'd lil the “Swappers’ Column.” to swap?
