tBy Associated Press. J

MILWAUKEE, Nov 2.-Eugene w.
Chain, Prohibition candidate for presi-
dent, closed his campaign tonight in
Milwaukee, speaking in his native state
TO an audience which included the
famous Phantom Outing club, of which
he is a member.
ION the eve of tie. election" he said,
''I make this prophesy: The party that
goes down to defeat tomorrow will
never again put a candidate for presi-
dent in the field.
1.-The entire face of the politics of the
nation will change before another four
years is passed.
THE Prohibition ticket tomorrow will
receive the largest vote it has ever
been given by tens and tens of thou
sands, and the old parties will awaken
on Wednesday morning to the realiza7
tion that there is something more than
a body of what they call fanatics back
ing this anti-liquor party
1.-THE old parties will realize that the
political battles of the future will be
waged over this question, and that this
liquor issue will be the great issue
until the day when the saloon is abol-
ished forever.
"Then, and not till then. will we stop
our fight for the wiping out of the

NTARYsVILLE, Kas., Nov a.
H William Jennings Bryan con-
AtA cludsd his campaign of Kansas
and Of the United States before an en-
thusiastic audience here tonight.
1t was the political speech of the
campaign, his address to be given at
Lincoln being non bipartisan, and simply
a talk of q neighbor to his neighbors.
Mr. Bryan realized it was the con-
cluding political speech of the cam
paign and his last words were given
with more than ordinary feeling.
His peroration was delivered with all
the earnestness at his command, and
as he declared that he had given an
impulse to honest politics and helped
to create a sentiment in favor of re-
form he was wildly applauded by the
large audience.
Following is the conclusion of the last
campaign speech in 1908 made by MI.
Bryan:
Ladies and gentlemen: I am now 4s
years old. 1t is eighteen years since
began my political career as candi-
date for congress. | told the people of
my district that if elected l would not
try to get their hands into other peo'
pies pockets; that | would simply try
to keep other peoples hands out of
their pockets. For eighteen years this
thought has run through every speech
and act.
Il have tried to apply to government
the Jeffersonian maxim of equal rights
to all and special privileges to none.'
Il have tried to help make this gov
ernment a government of the people, by
the people and for the people.
Long in Public Eye
For eighteen years you have had a
chance to scan my every speech and
act
while Republican leaders have dis
appeared as the result of Investigations,
/ have invited the scrutiny of my op-
ponents and have outliVed their crit1-
cisnls and their Misrepresentation.
Il know not what the future has for
me: l know not whether it is the peo-
ple's wish that l shall be their spokes-
man in the White House or continue
to perform the work which have tried
to perform as a private citizen, but [
have not lived in vain. | have given
an impulse to honest politics; l have
helped to create a sentiment in favor
of reform, and as a candidate [ have
but one thing to rely upon, the con-
fidence of the masses in my fidelity to
their interests.
"My opponent has behind him all
those forces which are considered
potent in politics. but I would rather
have the love of the people, the af
fection of the multitude in whose be-
half I have fought, than to hold any
office.
sIf I enter the White House I shall
enter it free to keep the pledges 1
have made: free to serve with single
ness of purpose.
"If / am elected 7 shall for four
years devote whatever energy I have
and whatever ability / possess to the
one object of making this government
again a government in which the peo-
pie rule and under which every citi-
zen shall draw from society a reward
proportionate to the service which he
renders to his fellow men.

the entire population of the city
The reception was rendered, to him

made he avoided all refereneef to parti-

In the parade which fol ollowed his

BRYAN GIVES OUT
FINAL STATEMENT
OF PARTY STATUS

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 2.-AIr. Bryan
tonight issued the following signed
statement:
sour fight is won and we await the
verdict with confidence The people
will not be deceived by the padded
straw votes published by the partisan
newspapers, by the shambles of the
Wall street gamblers or the boastings
of the panic stricken Republican lead
erS.
THE Republican candidate has be-
hind him an army of officeholders, the
trust magnates, the most of the lead
ing newspapers and an enormous cam
paign fund so tainted that he dare not
let the people know where it comes
from until after they vote, and that
part of it that is contributed to the Re-
publican congressional committee will
not be known then.
II have behind me the awakened con-
science OF the country and the senti
ment which demands the election of
United States senators by direct vote.
81 have behind me the victims of the
trusts who are pleading for relief, the
laboring men whose petitions have been
rejected by the Republican party, the
depositors whose savings are jeopar-
died by. the carelessness of bank Of
ficials and the consumers who have
been exploited by the beneficiaries of
the high tariff.
Bryan Their Only Hope
"All of these people see in a Demo-
cratic victory their only hope of relief,
and they know that with the election of
a Democratic president and Demo-
cratic congress, backed by a popular
verdict in behalf of Democratic poll
cies, is open for remedial legislation.
"The Republican leaders have been
weighed in the balance and have been
found wanting; they have betrayed the
rank and file of their own party ana
have left the Democratic party to voice
the honest sentiment of the honest
citizenship of the country, Republican
and Democratic.
And I may add we expect in this

statement tonight:
THE Democratic victory will

Despite the confident claims of the Re-

Doodle, my original estimate of 1873
electoral votes for Bryan will prove
correct when the returns are in.
MY prediction Is not based on imag-
mary statistics, as Hitchcock has used,
but upon conservative and reliable re-
ports from men who have been in
strueted in every state and district to
send only true reports regardless OF
cur feelings, SO that we would know
where and how To wage our battle.
MANY of these reports have given us
probable estimates too good to be ac-
cepted, but these estimates have been
Included as 'pOstscripts' and we have
used only the lowest figures oa which
to calculate the status of Democracy.
II repeat. Mr.. Bryan's election will he

however, upon al! who have the inter
