shown by his speeches that he would be
the advocate and supporter OF the Eosd
standard on the ground that 1t u d 0etter

During the four years to come ex-

There 10 no Season Way we should be

II is the most disastrous defeat the Re-
publicans OF Kansas have ever suffered.
In former elections since 1890, when they
began to meet adversely. they have man
aged TO save something out of the wreck
In 1900 they saved the governor and had
a hold-over senator from the election of

the governor and the state senate. and
John Martin, Democrat. went 10 the
United States senate to join PETER. Popu-
list. and a Populist took seat beside the
two Republicans on the supreme bench.
In 1894 they won the governor and the
house. but the senate was still Populist
although the Republicans had "A uaiort,v
on joint ballot, which retired Martin from
the United States senate.
This year everything has gone the rov-

Gratis, Mr.. Bryan said:
They joined in the minority report,
which declared that they were afraid Il
would prevent International bimetallism.
Where were those gold standard Demo
Gratis who had talked so much about
money Of civilization? Why, they went
into that convention and pleaded, not
for the gold standard, but for interna-
tional bimetailism, and yet, my friends,
when they were defeated, defeated in as
fair and square fight as was ever made
in a convention, they went to Indianapo-
lis and when they had the power to write
a platform such as they wanted, instead
of declaring for international bimetallism
they forgot all about international BIZ
metallism and declared for the gold STAN
dard."
A good sized crowd turned out at
Chester and listened with respectful at
tention to the candidate.
At Juneau there was not a yellow
badge visible and the few remarks OF the
candidate were well received.
There were large crowds at Water

places were apparently not in sympathy
with the free silver doctrines. Evans

POSITIVELY THE LAST APPEARANCE
Bryan's Program at Omaha Monday Night,
Closing His Public Career.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 3O.-The arrange
nlents for the appearance ofW j. Bry-
an in Omaha next Monday night have
peae practically decided upon by his
managers. He will speak at half doz-
en- halls during the evening, but the or
der al which he will appear at each has
not been announced, as it is feared that
if this was done, his crowd would all
congregate at the first rendezvous and
leave the others deserted. Chairman
James c. Dahlman of the Democratic
state central committee will accompany
Mr. Bryan on his tour of the state and
return with him to Omaha. The candi-
date is billed to arrive at the union
depot from Lincoln over the Burlington,
at ST., T. M He will be met by a recep-
ton committee and an escort of the
Veteran Bryan club. They viii accom-
pany him to the hall where he will make
his first speech, which will probably be
Boyd's theater. During the evening Mr..
Bryan will also speak at Creighton hall,
w aslington hall, Germania hall, Metz
hall on South Thirteenth street and to
the Swedish Bimetallic club at some hall
not vet designated. 1t is also expected
tina; he will speak at two or three open
air meetings.
AS a result Of rumors that there was
danger of a crash between the Repub-
lican paraders and the silver voters, the
Republican committee addressed let
Ter yesterday TO the Democratic COM
mittee. asking the members TO meet the
Republican committee in conference this
afternoon. One representative OF the
silver people appeared, and in his pres
ence a resolution was passed which ef-
fectually prohibited any movement south
Of Farnam street by the Republicans.
This gives one-talf Of the city to the
Democrats.
