Will Not Be Candidate
for Senator
But VIII Continue to Take In
terest In Politics.

Lincoln, Neb., November S.-William
]. Bryan tonight gave oue the following
statement concerning the election:
"The result was q surprise to me and
the magnitude OF the Republican VIC
tory was surprise to our opponents as
well as to those who voted our ticket.
1t is impossible to anaIyze the returns
till they are more complete but, speaking
generally, we seem TO have gained In the
largo 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
Considerable advantage. We have no way
Of knowing at this time how much
money was spent in the purchase Of votes
and In colonization. But while these
would account for some of the Republi-
can gains, they could not account for the
widespread increase in the Republican
vote. The pro sperity argument was prob
ably the most potent one used by the Re-
publicans. They compared present con-
ditions with the panic time Of '93 to '96,
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
q great deal of influence among those
who did not realize that war against
doctrine OF self-government In the
philippines must react upon us in this
country. We made an honest fight upon
an honest platform and, having done our
duty as we saw 1t, we have nothing to re-

Ex.Secretary Carlisle for Imme-

Atlanta, Ga, November s.-Hon. John
G.Carlisle has wired the Atlanta Journal
In response to request from that paper,
his views on the reorganization OF the
Democratic party. Mr.. Carlisle says:
"In my opinion the Democratic psrty
shoull at once organize on Democra-
tic basis.
IAN immediate return to the conser-
vative and patriotic position occupied by
the party before it was demorslized by
Populism and Free Silver Repu blicans
in 1896, will unite all true Democrats In
an active opposition to the objectionable
policies of the administration, Insure the
success OF our northern friends In state
and local contests and prepare the way
for great national victory in 1904 The
Democratic votes cast for MIR. McKin-
ley were not endorsements of his party
or his admi nistration, but protests
against what was considered the dan
gerous purposes and tendencies OF the op-
position candidates.
.-. lSigned) -. q. Cariisie's
New Orleans, November S-The New
Orleans Pioayune sent telegraphio re-
quests to many leading Democrats In
various sections of the country asking
expressions with reference to the future
OF the Democratic party. The following
are extracts from some OF the replies:
Hoke smith, Atlanta, Ga:
~ doubt the advisability of a distinct
movement by few men with the pur-
pose of re-aSsaRszs tion. A party which
can poll the sehE sa&s-@~sote that the
Democratic party has recently polled is
far from being dead party. More con-
seryative councils Will prevail in future
Democratic conventions and with pro-
nounced sound money platform in 1904,
with man against whom no factional
fight can be made, there is every reason
to believe the party will triumph"
Horace Boies OF Iowa:
my belief is we should drop 10 to /,
Let the money question rest while the
conditions remain as at present; orga-
nize Democratic clubs in every voting
precinct to send delegates to county,
from county to state and from state to
national convention OF delegates to meet
periodically and formulate platform or
the party. This should be based on prin-
ciples enunciated in our declaration OF
independence. Insist on a strict construc-
ton Of the sole source OF legislative pow
er in Congress. No subjngation of un-
willing people by force. Expansion in
everything that pertains to unnecessary
war. One form Of government for all;
one flag, one people, with equal rights
to all and special privileges to none.''
The Portland daily press., 1900-11-09

'we are defeated, bat not discouraged.
The fight must 90 on. am sure that
Republican policies win be repudiated By
the people when the tendency OF these
policies are fully understood. The con-
test between plutocracy and Democracy
cannot end until one or the other is
completely triumphant"
Concerning himself, Mr.. Bryan said:
81 have come out Of the campaign with
perfect health and clear conscience
did my best to bring success to the prin-
ciples for which stood. MIR. Stevenson
did all that he could; Senator Jones and
the members of the Democratic, Popu-
list, Silver Republican and anti4mperi-
alist committees did all they could. Mr..
Hearst and his associates In the club or
ennization put forth their best efforts.
Our newspapers, our campaign speeches
and our local organizations all did their
part. / have no fault to find and no re-
proa ches. shall continue to take an
active interest in politics as long as 1
live. believe 1t Is to be the duty OF
citizens to do 30 and In addition to my
Interest as citizen, feel that IL Will
require life time 'of work to repay the
political friends who have done so much
sor me. shall not be senatorial can
didate before the Legislature which has
been elected. Senator Ailsn deserves the
senatorship which goes to the Populists.
Mr.. Hitchcock and Mr.. W. Fl. Thompson
are avowed candidates for the senator
ship. They both deserve well OF the par
ty and am too grateful to them for past
support to stand in their way even II
I desired O seat in the Senate"
Mr.. Bryan said he has no other plans
at present than to rsmain at home until
he had recovered from the fatigue OF
campaigning. He denied the report that
he would remove from Nebraska and
make Texas his home.
