A Bitter Feeling.
Final Appeals TO Nebraskans.

IAncoln. Neb., Nov. Mr. and Mrs
Bryan reached their home in this city
al ~ oclock yesterday, after an absence
or several weeks duration. There was
quite an assemblage Of personal friends
at the Lincoln station. and the candidate
and his wife were welcomed by many
| cordial handshakes. Immediately upon
their arrival they were driven directly
| 10 their own residence. There were n
| rev callers, but they consisted, for the
| most part, OF fellow townsmen and none
| or them spent more than sufficient time
TO inquire about the personal welfare
or Mr.. Bryan and his wife, Mr.. Bryan
confessed to all that he felt the need of
securing good days rest. He accord
ingly retired early in the afternoon, and
was still sleeping at o'clock, Mrs Bryan
standing guard at the door, to prevent
intrusion Of any kind
In the few words that he did speak to
callers, Mr.. Bryan asserted his un-
shaken confidence In the success of his
cause, and ~ has never since the be-
ginning OF the campaign appeared moro
cheerful or more hopeful than he Is now.
He believes that the people are thor
oughly aroused and will sustain him at
the polls, but said that if perchance they
should fail to do So he would by no
means consider the cause.of bimetallism
lost He thinks that In the contingency
OF defeat at this time, immediate prep
arations should be begun for the cam
paign of 1900.
The last day OF the campaign will bo
devoted wholly to Mr. Bryan's own state,
and will be a long and busy one. He left
Lincoln at $50 this morning, and he will;
go westward as far as Grand Island, and |
from that point return over another |
railroad line In time to reach Lincoln |
at $3.50, making speeches of a few min |
utes duration at all important points
going and coming. He will stop at Lin
coin, on his return, long enough to make
q last address 10 the people OF his home
town, and Will then proceed to Omaha,
where, between the hours of and l2
o'clock. he Is expected to make from five
to seven speeches. Immediately after
the last speech I'm Omaha, Mr.. Bryan Will
return again to Lincoln, so as to be here
On election day Mrs. Bryan will ac-
company her husband through the state,
but Will not go to Omaha with him.
