Defeat Brings To Him No
Feelings of Personal
Loss.

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 6-Mr.
Bryan today gave out the fol-
lowing to the bimetallists of the
United States: "Conscious that
millions of loyal hearts are sad
dered by temporary defeat, I beg
to offer a word of hope and en-
couragement. No cause ever
had such supporters, more brave,
earnest and devoted, than those
who have espoused the cause of
bimetallism. They have fought
from conviction, and fought
with all the zeal which convic-
ton inspires. Events will prove
whether they are right or wrong.
Having done their duty as they
saw fit, they have nothing to
regret. The republican candi-
date has been heralded as the
advance agent of prosperity. If
his policies bring real prosperity
to the American people, those
who opposed him will share in
that prosperity. If, on the other
hand, his policies prove an in
jury to the people generally,
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1896-11-07

those of his supporters, who do
not belong to the office holding
class, or to the privileged classes
will suffer in common with those
who opposed him.
1.-THE friends of bimetallism
have not been vanquished; they
have simply been overcome.
They believe that the gold stand
ard is a conspiracy of the money
changers against the welfare of
the human race, and, until con-
WINGED of their error, they will
continue the warfare against it.
The contest has been waged this
year under great embarrass-
ments and against great odds.
For the first time the public has
been stirred up on the money
question, as the paramount issue,
and this has been done in spite
of all attempts upon the part of
our opponents to prevent it. The
republican convention held out
the delusive hope of internal
tional bimeta1ism, while repub-
lican leaders labored secretly for
gold recommendation; gold stand
ard democrats have publicly ad-
vocated the election of the In
dianapolis ticket while they
labored secretly for the election
of the republican ticket.
"The trusts and corporations
have tried to excite a tear Of
lawlessness, while they have
been defying the law, and Amer
lean financiers have b0asted that
they were secretly bartering
away the nations financial inde-
pendence. But in spite of the
efforts of the administration and
it's supporters; in spite of the
threats of money loaners at home
and abroad; in spite OF the coer-
cion practiced by corporation
employers; in spite of trusts and
syndicates; in spite of an enor-
nous republican campaign fund;
and in spite of the influence of a
hostile daily press, bimetalism
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1896-11-07

has almost triumphed in it's fight.
The loss of a few states, and
that, too, by a very small plu-
rality, has defeated bimeta1ism
for the present, but bimetalism
has emerged from the contest
stronger than it was for months
before.
Il desire to commend the work
of the three national committee
men, which have joined in the
management of the campaign.
Cooperation between the men,
bers of district political organi-
cations is always difficult, but it
has been less so this year than
usual. Interest in common
cause Of great Importance has
reduced friction to a minimum.
I hereby express my personal
gratitude to the individuals as
we'll as to the executive officers
of the national committee of the
Democratic, Populistic and Silver
parties for their efficient, u1tir-
ing and unselfsh labors. They
have laid the foundation for the
future success, and will be re-
membered as pioneers when vic
tory is at last secured. No per-
son orpolitical friend need grieve
because of my defeat. My am
bition has been to secure imrne-
date legislation rather than to
enjoy the honors of office. There
fore, defeat brings to me no feel
ing of personal loss.
"Speaking for the wife, who
has shared my 1abors, as well as
for myself, l desire to say that
we have been amply repaid for
all that we have done. In the
love of millions of our fellow
citizens, so kindly expressed in
knowledge gained by coming
into personal contact with the
people, and in broadened SYM
pathies, we find full compensa-
ton for whatever efforts we have
put forth. Our hearts have been
touched by the devotion OF
