BRYAN AND THE NEBRASKA ELECTION.
THE FUTURE ASPIRATIONS or THE SILVER CAN.
DIDATE DEPEND ON TILE REsIrIT

Lincoln. Neb.. Oct 3.-The campaign in Ne
braska which virtually closed last night has been
the dullest and most uneventful since years ago
when the Republican majority reliable to
make nomination on tina, ticket equivalent 10
an election. Five tickets are in the field and con-
ditions are much the same as last year. only with
popular interest lacking. Complete fusion has
been perfected by the silver forces comprising
Democrats Populists and Free Silver Republicans.
Their ticket is headed by Judge j. J. Sullivan OF
Columbus. for Justice of the Supreme Court. Judge
a. NJ Bost. also of Columbus. the present Chief
Justice heads the Republican ticket, and the fight
Is between these two. with odds close. based on
conservative estimates that the plurality either
way will not exceed six thousand Three other
parties are represented the ballot. the National
Democrats and two factions Of Prohbitionists. but
they are not serious factor In the race. Aside
from Chief Justice. two Regents OF the state
University complete the State ticket
While interest is lacking especially among the
rank and file OF the voters. the outcome may nave
q far-reaching effect the future politics or Ne
hraslla. Republican leaders insist that by winning
this year they will have killed fusion for all time,
paved the way for a Republican successor 10
Senator Allen year hence and given a Dack eye
to the Presidential Aspirations OF Mr.. Bryan,
whose desire for a fusion victory Is nndehied.
Fusionsts. the other hand, declare that the Is
are purely local. and the result can nave no
bearing on future struggles. There Is little pet
ting en- the outcome and no great ODDS on either
side.

DISCOVERED At CXMYREcHUS.
Dr.. co6ern Tells of the Finding of
an Entire Page of the New Tes-
lament BY Or. Petrie.

DENVER, Oct. 24-Rev. DR.. Cobern
startled the congregation of Trinity Metho-
dist Episcopal Church tonight by declar-
ing that for the first time he was prepared
TO tell of the discovery of an entire page of
the New Testament at Oxmyrnohus by
DR.. Petrie.
The speaker did not want this find to be
confounded with that of the papyri scraps
containing the writings of Christ The
leaf contained nearly the whole of the
first chapter of Matthew, and was almost
Identical in lines with the Greek Testa-
ment of to-day. The discovery was con-
tided to DR.. Cobern three weeks ago when
he left DR.. Petrie, by reason of the fact
that DR.. Cobern is secretary of the society
that had undertaken the researches.
The speaker delivered an eloquent SER
mon based on the find, proving conclu-
sively that the early Christians had the
same views and beliefs as those of the
modern church. The book from which the
page was taken was said TO be the earliest
authentic record of Christianity.
Among the verses which are authenti-
Gated by the find the following were cited !:
Jesus said except you fast 20 the world
We shall nowise find the kingdom of God"
Except you Sabbatize the Sabbath you
shall not see the father"
again Jesus said: Il went into the
| midst of the world and in the flesh was
seen of them. and l found all men drunk
and none found / athirst among them,
and my soul grieved over the sons of
man.
