| LINCOLN, Neb.. Oct. 2-For some days
preparations have been made for a mons
ter Republican demonstration at this
place. the home OF Mr.. Bryan, and the
capital Of the state.
| 1t took place today. The line of march
OF the carriages from the station to CAPT
toi House square, something over a mile
and half. was lined with people every
Wnere and the wide streets were filed
almost the entire distance to such an ex-
tent that In many places 1t impeded the
passage or the crowds and the mounted
escort.
| Arriving at the capitol square the. gov
ernor was conducted to a reviewing stand
| on the street and a grand procession
passed In review, occupying more than
an hour. There were many unique and
amusing features In this parade. One
was the number of women on foot that
| took part in 1t. First came about forty
young ladies Of the city in uniforms Of
blue, occupying place in the column of
march. At long intervals came two other
troops of ladies In uniform. The Ida Me
kinney club, numbering about fifty
women, wore an outer garment Of Stars
and Stripes, the stripes forming the skirt
OF the cress and the blue ground of the
stars made into a shirt waist

One of the amusing features was a

After the procession had passed in re-

| speakers stand, where he addressed a
large crowd. Fewer of those present
| heard his speech than those who did not
| hear 1t. lie needed a megaphone to adj
dress all who were there. He spoke for
| liucS-QudIl Oh an nOuFy gong over
| the same ground In his remarks that he
has travelled over before upon the issues
Of expansion, militarism, imperialism and
patriotism. His remarks were punctu-
ated by frequent cheers.
At the conclusion of his speech on his
way from the stand to his carriage he
was nearly mobbed by a wildly eager
crowd who wished to shake his hand or
t. get a word or a look of recognition
He reached his carriage somewhat bat
tered in appearance, but in fine spirits on
account Of the extent and the fervidness
of the reception. The train pulled out
for Plattsmouth, where an evening meet
ing was held. ~.
The evening meeting at Portsmouth
was also great success in point of num-
bers ard Interest. This meeting closed
the days itinerary.
