Bryan Does His Best to Get the
Office.

Lincoln, Neb, Nov. 6.-Mr. Bryan re-
turned to Lincoln at 1890 o'clock today
after spending the night in Omaha. His
first act after arriving here was to swear
in his vote and cast it. He voted the
straight democratic ticket, national,
state and congressional. The trip from
Omaha was without special incident
The candidate occupied a seat in an
ordinary day coach, which was crowded.
He appeared in excellent spirits and en-
gagged freely in conversation with people
about him. Much of the time of the
journey was given up to discussion with
republican citizen of the state on the
Philippine question. The best order
prevails and while large vote is
promised the indications are that the
election will pass off very quietly.

istration would permit the Bryan prom
