THE BEST FTNANCIER.

he has the right to use his vote as ne

JUST OVER IN NEBRASKA
At Plattsmouth Mr.. Bryan was intro
duced to his first Nebraska audience
by the chairman of the county central
committee who. on behalf of the citi-
zens Of Nebraska, welcomed him home.
Mr.. Bryan, in answering, thanked them
for their cordial welcome, and said he
hoped at some future time TO address
them at length and discuss the political
situation with them. He was cheered
and aplauded and everybody crowded
about him at the conclusion of his brief
remarks 70 personally and individually
greet him home. AT Omaha, 600 people
awaited the train which bore Nebras-
ka's presidential nominee.
SPEAKS IN OMAHA.
Mr.. Bryan had said he would not
speak at Omaha, but the cordial greet
ing given him by the friends assembled
at the depot apparently compelled him
to tell them of his trip east. There
We're many personal friends in the as
semblage who knew the Nebraskan be-
fore his nomination and the warm hand
clasps were not of such a nature as to
tend to the healing OF his already sore
right hand. Mr.. Bryan said:

want TO say to you that 1 have felt |
just as much at home in other parts of |
the country as here. I thought it might !

THE MOURNER'S BENCH.

mourner's bench at our meetings. so
that those that were under conviction
and about TO undergo a change Of heart
might come to the mourner's bench.
But instead of coming to
