BRYAN IN THE WEST.
Mr.. Geo. G. Royal Has Returned Home and
Gives His Views of the Nebraskan.
(Goldsboro Argus


Mr.. Geo. G. Royal has just returned
from an extended business trip through
the North and West in the interest of
their renowned felt mattress, which is
attracting attention all over the coun-
try. Among the many things which i'm
pressed Mr.. Royal on his Western trip
there was nothing more so than the fact
that that whole section of country has
declared unequivocally for Bryan. In the
many large cities he visited, he says
he made it point to go to newsdealers
and call for the leading paper, and in
each case every one was outspoken for
Bryan.
He was in Indianapolis when the Anti
Imperialistic convention met and he
says that there were thousands of dele
gates present, and Bryan banners were
to be seen everywhere. He says the
Bryan sentiment is growing and he
firmly believes that Bryan will be the
next President of the United States.
