4 RECORD OF Mr.. BRYAN'S CAMPAIGN

Lincoln, Neb.. November 4.-Colonel w.
}. Bryan and Mrs. Bryan arrived at their
home in this city tonight, coming di-
rect from Chicago They were driven to
their residence where Mr. Bryan will re-
main until tomorrow morning, When he
will start upon flying trip through Me-
hraska. deyoting the last two days of
the campaign to his own state. Mr.. and
Mrs. Bryan found large number of their
friends at the depot At noon, when they
reached Creston, Iowa. there was quite
q strong demonstration IN Mr.. Bryan's
honor Several hundred people had con-
gregated at the depot and there were
calls for a speech. MIR. Bryan told the
people. however, that he never made
speeches on Sunday, but he shook hands
with most of those present before the
train started. There were similar crowds
at Villisca Red Oak and Pacific Junction,
and when the train landed the candidate
in his own State at Plattsmouth. there
was still stronger demonstration, Tho
crowd was large and there We're many
calls for Mr. Bryan. He declined. as at
other places, to speak.
Mr. Bryan's attention was called to tho
address Of Charles r.. Flint and others
who claim to be democrats. but urge
democrats TO vote the republican ticket.
Mr.. Bryan said that he was very glad 70
find that MIR. Flint was supporting Nc
Kinley, and added Mr.. Flint is the
leading member of the Rubber Goods
Manufacturing company and is also con-
nectea with the starch trust. He has
been the most conspicuous defender Of
the trust principle In the United States,
having made speech at Boston in May.
1893. and another Mt Chicago recently on
that subject. ] am glad to have all trust
magnateg support the republican ticket.
for if am elected they will not be visit
ing the White House and asking t'i' fa-
yors In return for campaign support. Our
appeal is to the people who suffer from
the trusts. not TO the monopolists VINO
nrofit by them. Next to Imperialism and
militarism. the trust question has done
o more than any other question to con-
vince the plain people that the republican,
party is entirely given over TO the con-
t tro, nj orsauized wealth. Imperialism
. aynloifs abroad while private monopoly
a numbers at home, and the large army
, advocated by the republican party Is m
~ tended to support the system or spolia-
I ton at home and abroad.
