BRYAN HAS A BUSY DAY
Makes Many Speeches In Old
Congressional District.
TOUCHES UP HANNA
DISCUSSES VARIOUS ISSUES OF
TIE CAMPAIGN.

Falls-City, Neb., Aug. 22.-This has been
busy day for Mr.. Bryan. He may be
said to have begun the day yesterday,
for it was after 1 o'clock this morning
when he reached Auburn, his first STOP
ping place after leaving Lincoln. Getting
few hours sleep there, he was prepared
to commence the day early. He began
his speech at Auburn shortly after 8
o'clock. There he made an hours ad-
dress, and after being driven RAPIDLY to
the depot he was compelled to wait fifty
minutes for a delayed train to take him
TO Tecumseh, the next stopping place
At Tecumseh he spoke briefly, and after
taking a hearty dinner, started upon
twenty-tWo-mile drive across country to
PaWnee. This drive was made by means
OF three relays in two hours time and
It was apparently q pleasing diversion for
Mr.. Bryan.
At Pawnee, as az Auburn and Tecumseh,
there was a good attendance. as there
was also at the night meeting held at
this point. The day meetings were all
held in the groves of the court houses
of the counties. The meetings were all
held in the First congressional district,
Mr. Bryan's old district, and he was ac-
cOmpanied throughout the trip by Mr..
Berge, the Democratic candidate for con-
gress. At each place Mr.. Bryan made
an appeal in Mr.. Berges behalf
The trip from Pawnee to Falls City
was made in a freight caboose behind
special engine.
Answers Republican.
At Tecumseh the most interesting Incl
dent was colloquy between Mr.. Bryan
and man in the audience, evidently a
propound1ng several questions to the
speaker. Some of the questions indicated
Enthusiastically that the questiOner was
out of temper, but Mr.. Bryan responded
M ar,d xr-ifh na
natue.
This gentleman interrupted Mr.. Bryan
toward the close Of his speech by Sug-
gesting that Ihe Filipinos were on a par
with our Indians. To this Mr.. Bryan re-
Now, as I understand you. you think
we We're right in taking the property of
the Indians
No, sir"
Then do you think it right to take the
property of the FiipinosY'
mo, SIR responded the man in the
audience, and nobody is going TO. How
does the treatment Of the FiliDinOS diff
fer from the treatment of the iail-birds
In this county? Do you believe in pun
Mr.. Bryan-Your face is the face of an
intelligent man and you cannot fail to see
the difference between putting men into
the penitentiary for the commission of a
crime and going over to the FilipinOs and
taking charge of the government Of the
Fihpinos.
Corruption In Islands.
At Pawnee Mr. Bryan limited at what
he considered another objection to ac-
qUiTing outside territory, addressing him
self 20 Republicans and saying:
Under your own administration men
OF your own selection have been guilty
of the embezzlement of the funds of Cuba
If that occurs right here, under the
shadow OF our own country, what would
be the entertainments if We sent men to
rule over 1000. 600 FiliDinos Even now
you Will find they are organizing develop
ment companies in the United States for
the Philippines, and that these develop
ment companies are relying on American
officials over there to help them get fran
chises. You will find that people are
standing ready to gObble up the fran
chises in the islands, and don't you know
what a time we have had in this country
with those men who are getting the fran
chises?'
Touches at Hanna.
At Falls City he paid his respects to
Senator Hanna as follows:
This mornings paper states that Mr..
Hanna yesterday went down into New
Jersey, the home of trusts, TO make a
speech Did he tell those Republicans
ing to win, and not to worry? Oh, no
He said TO them:
You want to watch out. Don't be
OVer-cOnfident; we have got a great fight
on hand. We have got to hight hard
And then / can imagine l can see him
put his hand behind him and say: Come
down. Is not that good place for
man to go to scare corporations into con-
tributiOns? 1t is possible that a ReDub-
lican farmer can be deceived as to the
attitude of the Republican party on the
trust question
Mr.. Bryan viii leave at 2:30 tomorrow
morning for Topeka, reaching that city
at 1880 o'clock, for the notification.
