BRYAN WELCOMED
To HIS HOME.
Bryan Says, 4sGreat Scott!
What a Crowd!" When
Greeted at City of Lincoln
HEARTILY RECEIVED

LINCOLN, Nebr., Sept. 6.-William J.
Bryan returned this evening to his Lin
coin homo and the rhome folks" well
coined him with every evidence of ap-
proval and satisfaction It was
neighborly welcome, planned as such.
and carried out in its entirety with
that understanding.
Lincoln has more Republicans than
Democrats and Bryan has in the past
good -humoredly expressed the belief
that 1t would be a task to reform the
city politics. but tonight there was no
line of partisan division, and the well
come extended to both Mr.. and Mrs.
Bryan was generous and sincere.
Everybody showed good nature. no.
body wanted TO quarrel about politics
and nearly the whole population
showed that 1t was genuinely glad that
so well-known a man as Bryan lived
here.
1t is doubtful II Lincoln ever held a
larger crowd than that which came to
the city today. The weather, barring
the heat. was nearly perfect It was
a half-holiday In the city and every
train arrived loaded down, bringing not
only Nebraskan people. but many from
nearby States. The city was hand
someiy decorated for the Homecoming.
The fronts OF business houses were a
mass of flags and bunting. while in the
residence districts Autographs of
Bryan were, shown in the windows to-
gether with the national colors. The
non-partisan> nature of the reception
was emphasized In every way possible.
The Bryan train arrived at the Bur-
lington station shortly after o'clock.
Two hours before that the crowd be-
gan assembling and was packed around
the station, on the platforms of freight
and express buildings and on the side
walks and in the street for nearly a
half a block away. There was a roar
of welcome as the train rolled in and
Bryan appeared on the platform.
In the party, besides Mr.. and Mrs.
Bryan and their daughter, Grace, was
the Lincoln delegation which left here
ten days ago to meet Bryan in New
York, and which accompanied him on
his homeward trip.
AS he looked down on the multitude
of faces Bryan explained:
| Great Scott, what q crowdv
! Showing no sign of fatigue, but bow
| ing right and left, and smiling happily,
with an occasional word to an old ac-
quaintance, Bryan made his way to
the carriage Seated with him during
/ the trip uptown were Governor Mickey.
Mayor Brown and John e. Miller,
president of the Lincoln Commercial
Club. A second carriage contained
Mrs Bryan, Mrs. M. d. Welch, Mrs.
j. E. Miller and Mayor Dahlman of
Omaha Then. in turn. followed car
riages containing members of the re-
ception committee and newspaper men
who accompanied Bryan from the East.
No attem2t was made at a parade,
although there was a mounted escort
policemen on horseback, fraternal or
ganizations and individual marchers. the
whole preceded by six bands compris-
ing 1872 musicians.

TURN DOWN HEARST.
Prohibitfonfsts Decline to Nominate
Editor for Governor.


BINGHAMPTON. N. Y. Sept Sin
the State convention of the Prohibition
party today Captain Henry NJ Randall
oe Port Jefferson. Suffolk County. was
nominated for Governor.
Prior to the opening of the conven-
ton it looked as though William Ran
dolph Hearst would get the nomina-
ton. Clarence E. Pitts of Oswego led
a band of faithful followers into the
convention hall exhibiting Hearst
badges Pitts was accused of being a
Hearst leader in Oswego County and
with having agreed to endeayor to
swing the Prohibition party in line for
Hearst. The committee on platform
and resolutions nipped this plan in the
bud by Incorporating in the platform
the resolution setting forth that $50
long as ours is the only party with
prohibition purpose we cannot support
any candidate Of any other party, any
where at any time or for any reasons
At the finish of the reading of this
there were few cries of Whats the
matter with Hearst7" Chairman Hop
-kins of the committee on platform
loudly proclaimed that IF we voted
for Hearst we would be voting for
man. who is mortgaged to another party
and we should be getting the second
mortgage. Then the other party would
foreclose on the mortgage and where
would we be?"
Tremendous cheers rent the air and
drowned the efforts of the Hearst SEN
timent to make itself heard. This
quenched all attempts to amend the
platform and the Hearst boom died.

No region is more interesting and
full of romance than the South Sea
islands, and to make voyage in the
good ship Mariposa and travel to these
summer isles of Eden Is pleasure sail

The famous surgeon. DR.. Nicholas
Sem, says of this charming region:
mo other island can compare in nat
ural beauty with Tahiti, the gem OF the
South Pacific 1t Is the island where
life is free of care-where the natives
are fed, clothed and housed by nature,
where man eats his daily bread with
out being forced TO labor, sleeps and
dreams away his life free from worry

paradise before he dies"

Peter Peterson, aged 80 years, the
son of Ole and Dorothy Peterson, died
at Denver Saturday afternoon, follow
ing an operation for amputaton of one
of his legs, and the remains were
brought to this city Sunday afternoon,
where they were prepared for burial,
and taken today to the home of the
parents, at 165 Cedar street, from
whence the funeral will occur at 2
O'Clock Tuesday afternoon, with ser
vices by Rev. Oscar Woods, pastor of
the West Side church.
Injured on His Birthday.
Young Peterson was born in Nor
way March 16, 1876, and came with
his parents to this city seven years
later, having since been a resident
here. On his twenty-third birthday
while employed at the railroad shops
here, he fell and injured his hip, since
which time he has been an invalid. A
few days ago he decided to go to Den
yer and have the injured leg ampu,
tated, in the hope of staying the raw.
ages of the disease. He said he pre-,
ferred the probability of death to the
certainty of life under the distressing
circumstances, and would be glad to
have the operation performed. The
am%putation was made Saturday after.
noon, but the young man did not
long survive the shock of the opera,
ton. He. will be laid to rest in the
cemetery here.
Leaves Sorrowing Relatives.
MIR. Peterson was the brother of Mrs.
II. A. Smith and Mrs. John Thees and
Sayer, Elmer and Oscar Peterson, be.
sides two hat preceded him to the
grave. He was a patient, uncomplain,
ing sufferer, making as little trouble
as possible and doing his share of the
work possible under the circumstances
of his long illness and almost hope
less condition. The parents and mem
bers of the family are mourning the
taking away of a son and brother in
the very prime of his life, and mourn
not without the comforting Thought
that he is better off than while here on
a bed of endless pain.
