Lincoln. Neb., July r7.-william ].
Bryan's attention was called today 10
the fact that some anti-irnperialists had
announced they would be opposed to him
on account of the silver plank in the plat
form, and he was asked as to whether
this fact would seriously affect the anti
imperialist vote. He said:
Several gold standard opponents of
Imperialism have already announced
their intention to support the Democratic
ticket, although the anti-imperialistic
league has not acted officially In such
matter each individual is governed by
his own views as to the relative import
ance of the issues. The Democratic plat
form declares the question of Imperialism
to be the paramount issue. If any OPP
ponent OF Imperialism refuses to support
the Democratic ticket because of the sill
yer plank, it must be because he consid-
ers the money question more important
than the PHILIPPINE question: that is he
prefers gold standard empire to a BIZ
metallic republic. When the test comes
1 believe that those Who adhere to the
doctrine that governments derive their
just powers, not from superior force, but
from the consent of the governed, will
support our ticket, even though they do
not endorse the silver plank"

Following the system adopted year
or two ago by the B. & o. Railroad, the
conductors and brakemen of the Norfolk
& Western Railway will hereafter wear
stripes on their uniforms, each stripe in
dicating five years service. Capt Walter
Hutchings is the oldest conductor on the
entire N. & w. system. having been in
the employ of the company for twenty
years. Hewas the first conductor on the
old Shenandoah Valley road.
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad has
taken new step. Formerly when an
employee desired to take a trip to another
part of the road he had to apply for
special pass. This order of things has
been changed and in the last few days
quarterly passes have been issued to the
engineers. conductors, fremen and brake
man who have been in the employ of the
company for one year. These passes are
good for any part ftheroad, northeastern
and western branches. This action of
the company will be labor-saving move
for them. besides giving the old and
faithful employees 4 chance to take trip
now and then without having to send to
the main Office and spend several days in
getting a return.-M -Martinsblrg Stateman.
