IN WILD ABANDON.

The People of Omaha Learn of the Nom
nation of Their Fellow Citizen Bryan.
OMAHA, Neb., July 11.-Five thou
sand people of every party damned
the street yesterday in front of the
World-Herald Office to get the news
bulletins from the convention. Each
succeeding report which noted gain
for Bryan was received with wild and
spontaneous bursts of applause.
Every bulletin in which mention
was made of Illinois was
read with the most intense inter
est. When the report was flashed
over the wire that Altgeld's delega-
tion had gone over to Bryan, the en-
thusiasm of the crowd knew no
bounds.
The conviction which had been
growing since the first ballot that
Bryan would be nominated, was rem
dered almost certain to the crowd by
the action of Illinois. But the accu-
mulated tension of feeling which had
been on since last night, when the
demonstration was made for BRYAN,
remained until the final dispatch
came, reporting the nomination. Then
the crowd lost all control of itself. In
wild enthusiasm the excited people
threw their hats in the air and yelled
themselves hoarse with cries OF
Bryan" Hundreds of photographs |
of the silver champion of Ne |
braska were scattered out over
the heads of the people, and they |
scrambled madly for them, tumbling |
over each other and yelling in perfect |
abandon. 1t required considerable
effort to keep them from crowding into |
the office. A number of prominent |
politicians of the state were in the
crowd all jubilant over the nominal
ton of Ncbraska's son. Among those
who anxiously watched the bulletins
was Charles W. Bryan, of Omaha,
brother of the nominee

UncIe Luke and HIs Win.

If in case you have lived as long as
have you have took notice by this time
that back there in them plain old days
/ people had more oxen and thought
more of their COW teams than they do
now. On that trip 1 rccollect that
some of the men driv two oxen and
some driv four, whilst Uncle Luke
Willis he driv six without the sign of n
rope on marry one. He had him long
keen whip, which he could take it and
set the very air on fire from the tail of
the off OK at the wheels to the horns of
the lead OK way out there in front. And
to hear Uncle Luke talkin to his cows,
sometimes kind and gentle and some
times with loud voice in the plainest
and strongest United States language,
and then see him handle his long whip
till it would coil up and hiss and pop
like bunch of firecrackers-that was
fun and show enough for me.
Soon as ever we got 10 town and sold
out the cotton and other producements
which we had took to market, the men
folks driv around on the square and
halted the wagons. Then they
went off and left us boys there to
mind the teams and keep loose stock
away. You understand they didn't have
no stock law in town then, and if YOU
didn't look out the COWS and hogs and
things would eat up every blessed thing
in the wagons.
So the men folks they left us boys
with the wagons and teams, whilst they
went off to ''see about it," as heard
Uncle Luke say. AS for me, 1 don't
know for certain where they went. but
from what little could see and pick up
around the edges ] knowed blame well
they didn't go off and drink any plain
branch water to speak of.
Anyhow, we boys wanted to see some
of the sights, so we took it time about in
to min1in the wagons, and it
want no trouble at all that day to find
two or three yearlin boys fresh from the
woods and hills strayin and stragglin
around town steppin high and awk-
ward as mule colt in canebrake.
Finally at last I told The boys if they
would leave Ben Chris Weaver with me
and let mo have Uncle Luke's long whip.
/ would mind the wagons aud teams
and they could make up a crowd and
take in the town. If we tnlv turned
loose two or three at time, you under
stand, they dassent go out of sight from
the wagons for fears they never would |
git back to base. And that's how come
me TO take the job of mindin all the !
wagons and keepin the stock off with |
aotL-n but Uncle Luke's long whip and |
Ben Chris Weaver to help me.
Now it come to pass that there was |
one little woolly-headed he COW in /
town that day which was particularly
alean end sassy, and he mighty night !

a SINGLE TERM.

- All Mr.. Bryan Would, IN the Event
OF His Election. Consent to Serve, Be-
IeVing In the Doctrine EnuncIated by
President Cleveland In Hts First Letter
| OF acceptance and Also Advocated by
Presidents Hays and JacBson-One OF
the Platform Builders.
| CHICAGO. July I1-Shortly after Mr..
Bryan received word that he had been
nominated he gave out statement to
the American people declining to ac-
cept second term in the event that
he should be elected for the term for
which he was yesterday nominated.
Subsequently, to reporter of the
United Press, Mr.. Bryan made the fol-
lowing statements
This is not sudden resolution on
my part. l have had it in mind ever
since my nomination has been con-
sidered by my friends as possibility
l believe it is good principle for mo
to follow and shall live up to 1t. The
presidency is the highest honor that
can be bestowed upon any human be-
ing by his country and the power
placed in the hands of the president of
the United States Is SO great that there
should be no temptation thrown in his
way to cause him to use it for his per-
sonal Advancement.
Mr.. Cleveland, in his first letter of
acceptance set forth the objections to
second term in language so forcible
that it cannot be surpassed. Presi-
dent Hayes advocated an amendment
TO the constitution making the chief
executive of the United States ineliPi.
bic for reelection, and a similar
amendment was advocated by Presi-
dent Andrew Jackson.
Il desire to express my deep appre-
citation of the kindness shown to me
by other candidates. My nomination
Is due to the peculiar circumstances
which surround this campaign, and
not to any superior merit. In fact, had
tho convention considered who was
most deserving, the lot would have
fallen upon another. 1 so highly APP
preciate the responsibility imposed by
this nomination that l have avoided
making any promises or pledges to any
person"
Mr.. Bryan did not feel called upon to
say anything with regard to the plat
form. He was member of the COM
mittee that constructed it, and his |
IDEAS of what should be enunciated |
therein are prominent throughout the |
document. While not formally COM
menting upon the platform in the |
above interview it can be stated with |
accuracy that Mr.. Bryan, as the cam
didate OF his party, agrees with every
plank, and will be it's exponent during
the coming campaign and will adopt it
as his rule of conduct should he be
elected

During the past week heavy damag.
Ing rains fell in portions of the eastern
and middle sections of the State, but in
the western section more rain is needed
TO develop growing crops. The week
closed with warm, showery weather
generally. The principal crops-cot-
ton, corn and tobacco-are as rule in
good condition of growth. Tobacco
continues to french in some sections
where much rain has fallen. Cotton in
the western section is in excellent con-
dition, fruiting we'll and two weeks
earlier than usual. Early corn is al
most assured. Wheat threshing is
nearly completed and the crop is gener-
ally short of expectations; the I'M
threshed portion is being damaged by
rains. Oats are short. Irish potatoes
are only fair, while sweet potatoes

he was fool.
And way back there in the golden
days of boyhood it does raley look to
me like / was more different sorts OF
fool, and the blamdest, gonebyest,
biggest fool that ever sprung from the
bosom of the earth and got tangled up
with the web of time.
Now in them days the Sanders gener-
alton of people had made their clear
ins and built their cabins down there
in the old Panther Creek settlement,
and by some hook or mercrook-the
good Lord only knows howl had man
aged to worry through the ups and
downs and overs and unders of about
- years of human life.
By the old stage road it was sixteen
miles from the settlement where we got
our washin done TO the town of Green
vile, where we sold cotton and chick
ems and eggs and other farm produce
ments, and bought few dry goods and
groceries and other valuables of life.
When look back now and think about
1t right serious seems to me like Green
vile was but little more than wide
place in the road. But it was town,
you understand; to my young eyes it
was the biggest and the busiest and the
finest place in the round created warld.
Up to that time it had always looked to
me like the sun rose somewheres over
there in the fat woods on the other side
of Panther creek, and then went down
with a loyal bobtail flush and set behind
them old red hills around Greenville.
In that day and generation the men
folks didn't go to town as regular and
frequent as they do now, and it was only
about oncst year that they would fill
up with the milk of human kindness
and let the boys go with them. And,
mind you, with us boys 4 trip to town
was the biggest thing in the deck-the
happiest and most brightest spot in the
records of a year. White people, ac-
cordin to the way see things now and
the way 1 saw things then, a railroad
excursion all the way from New York to
New Orleans nowadays amt nothin to a
ride on our OK wagon from Panther
Creek to the town of Greenville.
So in the large and lovely autumn, in
the golden Indian fields were turnin
brown and rcd and pale in patches
the men folks they yolIed up the
oxen and loaded the wagons and took
the boys with them and went to town.
IL il was given unto me to live right
on for a hundred years to come
] never could forget how tremendous
big and broad and bright and beautiful
the world looked to me on that frosty
mornin in October as the wagons rolled
put over the old stage road-men and
oxen and boys all headed for town
from Panther Creek to Greenville-
from sunrise to sunset.

CONVENTION HALL, CHICAGO, july
1O-The intensity of the demonstra-
ton on behalf of VIM. J. Bryan in the
convention yesterday was largely due
to the efforts of ]. T. Hill, of Cordele.
Ga, the youngest delegate on the
floor. Mr.. Hill was one of the three
who seized Mr.. Bryan and carried him
to his seat. When the ovation to the
Nebraskan was at its height Mr.. Hill
went around among the members
of the Georgia delegation talking for
Bryan, and it is said that 1t was
largely through his efforts that
the Georgians declared for the young
looking orator. It was Mr. Hill
who secured the services of Halt
Lewis, of Georgia, to place Mr.. Bryan
in nomination, and altogether he APP
peared to be the most active manager
of the Bryan boom. Mr.. Hill is only
81 years of age and has aspirations to
congress.
