REPUBLICAN ARGUMENTS.
Mr.. Bryan Makes a Statement
Concerning Election Results.

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 9.-Wm.
j. Bryan tonight gave out the
following statement concerning
the election:
"The result was a surprise to
me, and the magnitude of the
Republican victory was a sur
prise to our opponents as well as
to those who voted our ticket.
1t is impossible to analyze the
returns until they are more com.
plete, but speaking generally, we
seem TO have gained in the large
cities and to have lost in the
smaller cities and in the country.
"The Republicans were able TO
secure tickets or passes for all
their voters who were away from
home, and this gave them con-
siderable advantage. We have no
way of knowing at this time how
much money was spent in the
purchase of votes and in coloni-
zation. But while these would &C
count for some of the Republican
gains, they could not account for
the widespread increase in the
Republican vote. The prosperity
argument was probably the most
potent one used by the Republi-
cans. They compared present
COT ditions with the panic times of
1898 to 1896 and this argument
had weight with those who did
not stop to consider the reasons
for the change. The appeal,
Stand by the president while the
war is on had a great deal of in
tiuence among those who did not
realize that war against doc.
trine of self-government in the
Philippines must react upon us
in this country. We made an hon
est fight upon an honest platform,
and having done our duty as we
saw it, we have nothing to regret.
"We are defeated but not dis
couraged. The fight must go on.

There ia no pleasure in life if
you dread going to the table to
eat and can't rest at night on ac-
count of indigestion. Henry Will

suffered that way for years, till
he commenced the use Of Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure, and adds, "Now

stood. Tho contest between plu
tocracy and democracy cannot
end until one or the other is com
pletely triumphant"
Concerning himself Mr.. Bryan
said:
81 have come out of the cam
paign with perfect health and a
clear conscience. | did my most
to bring success to the principles
for which | stood. Mr.. Stevenson
did all he could; Senator Jones
and the members of the Demo
cratic, Populist, Silver RepuhE-
can and Anti Imperialist com
mittees did all they could. Mr..
Hearst and his associates in the
club organization put forth their
best efforts. Our newspapers, our
campaign speakers and our local
organizations did their part also.
l have no fault to find and no re-
proaches. Ishall continue TO take
an active interest in politics as
long as | live. | believe it to be
the duty Of citizens to do so, and
in addition to my interest as a
citizen, | feel that it will require
a life time of work to repay the
political friends who have done
so much for me. / shall not be a
senatorial candidate before the
legislature which has been elect
ed. Senator Allen deserves the
senatorship which goes to the
Populists. Mr.. Hitchcock and Mr..
w. II. Thompson are avowed
candidates for the other senator
ship. They both deserve we'll of
the party, and l am too grateful
to them for past support to stand
in their way even if | desired a
seat in the senate"
Mr.. Bryan said he had no other
plans at present than to remain at
h0ine until ne mad recovered from
the fatigue of campaigning. He
denied the report that he would
remove from Nebraska and make
Texas his homo.

Millions May StarYe.

Tacoma, Wash, Nov, IL
Oriental advices received by to-
days steamer state that four to
six millions Chinese north of
Pekin are in danger of starving,
their crops having been a total
failure. One million piculs of
tribute rice were to be dipatched
from Shanghai and distributed
among these hungry hordes from
Tien Tsin and Pekiu, but the
military officers at Shanghai have
given orders that no rice should
be sent out of central China.

CIvILITY Is GOOD CAPITAL.
The Rudeness Of American Sales
people Prevents Their Ad
yanC2mPnt.

Look at the army Of salesmcn
and saleswomen in our stores.
There is not, | believe, as capa-
bic or honest corps of workers
in the world. Yet French or
English shopgirl will sell twice
as manv goods in the same time,
and the customer will also come
again and again to be served by
the same woman. Why ? Be-
cause she is civil and courteous.
There is something pitiful as
we'll as ridiculous in the indif-
ference, the hauteur, the actual
rudeness of many Of the intelli-
gent young men and women
behind our customers. Yet,
civility is their capital By sell
ing gloves or tinware they earn
their living, and the more civil
they are, the more they sell.
Most of our readers know a
few saleswomen who have re-
manned in some Of the old bus
mess houses until an honored
old age, and, by their ability
and courtesy, have made for
themselves hosts Of friends. 1t
is a pity that these foolish young
people could not learn their
business from them.-"An

The poor powder would cost

Royal Baking Powder may cost little
more per can, but it insures perfect,

Proof Positive.

Walls have had ears since curiosity
began; now it seems they have eyes
too, II we may generalize from the
story of q contemporary. A Awell-known
photographer Of New York recently
had his country house overhauled. A
new skylight was added, and altera
tions were made in the roof. The mer
took their time and did not overworb
themselves, but this did not prevent
the roofer from presenting . bill al
most as "steep" as his calling. Wher
the owner of the house expostulated
it was explained to him that the mer
had to be paid for their time, and they
had spent several days on the job. "Nt
WONDER" said the photographer; ant
then he produced Q number Of snap
shot photographs. representing th'
men on the roof of his house as take,
from the attic window of an adjoining
building. Some were sitting smoking
some were reading newspapers, ant
others were lying on their backs
"Wby," said the astonished roofer
'these are my men!" Exactly SO, re
piled the photographer, "and they ar
earning my money."-Youths Com
