Hon. William 7. Bryan OF Nebras-
ka met his third Waterloo" last
Tuesday and we cannot say that we
are sorry. Viewed from any stand
point. he got what he paid for He
deserted great principles and fol-
lowed the maudlin sentiment of the
mob In a vain effort to reach the
presidency. He descended from the
pedestal Of a statesman and stood on
the platform Of a demagogue. He
met a committee of colored men, and
led them to hope for recognition from
him. and then in order to secure the
nomination, he repudiated all that he
said to them, If not by direct refer
ences. certainly by inference.
He justified the DISTINGUISHING
laws Of Southern States by appealing
to the worst prejudices. calling at
tention 10 what northern men would
do rather than what was right to be
done under such circumstances.
His managers gave encouragement
to the revolt Of colored men against
the Republican Party and yet refused
to admit that such encouragement
had been given. He handicapped
these colored men by Offering them
no argument upon which to appeal to
the colored voters for their suffra-
ges.
II is surprising that the Negro in
dependents were able to continue the
contest. based as it was upon revenge
for the Brownsville order The col
ored Republicans were really more
benefited than they. The result of
the election is notice to Messrs. Till
man. Vardaman and Dixon that the
North Will not stand for a further
agitation of the race question. The
South may continue to remain solid
and stay outside the Union, so to
speak.

Hon. William II. Taft of Ohio will
be the next President of the United
States and Hon. james s. Sherman
of New York will Dee the next Vice
President of this same country, ac-
cording to the returns from the cleo
tion last Tuesday.
We are not surprised at the result
for the attitude of the Democratic
Party as reflected through Hon. Will
liam ]. Bryan made the conservative
business interests fearful that all of
the many experiments of the dema-
gogues and scheming soldiers of
fortune" might be put into practice
If the fondest desires of the great
Nebraskan were realized
We are more interested now in
the pledges of the Republican plat
form than we are in anything else
and it would be we'll to note too the
utteraaces of Mr. Taft while on the
stump relative TO his attitude TO the
colored people Of this country.
