whiie this morning, arriving at O'Clock

DprIng his prief stay in this city Mr..
Bryan gave the United Associated Presses
represe natives Il short interview. He said:
Il have no intention of removing from
Lincoln Isee nonecessity fOrit. propose
to do all can for the cauae OF free silver.
/ don't want to be regarded as leader,
but simply as an ordinary worker, con-
Iident tGat the sentiments advocate mean
prosperity for the country. The cause Is
stronger today than ever and will grow
dali y.
"When the people are enlightened on a
just use, they will see its merit. Educa-
ton can do nothing to hurt the cause or
silver. This year We got the heaviest vote
in States where free silver had been longest
discussed. Where it has been presented
to the people only in limited way, 1t
did not do as well.
Kentucky is an instance. While the
Democrats lost 5000 votes the vote was
almost tie. This shows the result Of
the silver cause. The people are seeing
the light and Will learn for themselves
The gold Democrats, If they come back
to the Democratic party, must come as
silver men. THERE'S not room FOR two Re
publican parties in this country. The gold
Democrats cannot come lack to the party
and run il on Republican IDEAS. They left
because of the platform, called me Popu-
list long before the Chicago convention, and
unless they have changed their views, must
stay with the Republicans. The Democratic
party is committed to silver and will con-
tinue to fight for it.'
Mr. Bryan is looking well, and outside OF
his voice, which is yet weak. is in re-
Inarkably good health.
