CLAIMS
VICTORY IS WON
Nebraskan Reaches Home
After His Long and Ardu-
Gus Campaigning.

Lincoln. Neb.. Nov. 2.-Mr. Bryan to-
night issued the following statement:
Our 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 Wall street gam
blers or the Boosting of the panic
stricken Republican leaders.
'The Republican candidate has be-
trust magnates, most of the leading
newspapers and an enormous campaign
fund so tainted that he dare not let the
people know where it comes from until
after they have voted, and that part OF
il that is contributed to the Republican
congressional committee will not be
known even then.
II have behind me the awakened con-
science of the country and the senti-
ment in favor of popular government,
which demands the election of United
States senators by direct vote.
Il have behind me the victims of the
trusts who are pleading for relief. the
Iaboring men whose petitions have been
rejected by the Republican party, the
depositors whost savings are jeopar-
died by the carelessness of bank Off
Gals. and the consumers who have
been exploited by the beneficiaries of
the high tariff.
.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 a Demo-
cratic congress- backed by a popular
verdict in behalf of Democratic politics,
the Nay is open for remedial iegisla-
ton.
Republicans Weighed in Balance.
'Tbe Republican leaders have beer
weighed n the balance and have been
found wanting: they have betrayed the
rank and file of their own party, and
have left the Democratic party to voice
the honest sentiment of the honest cit
izenship of the country, Republican and
Democratic.
campaign the votes of all reformers, for
the Democratic party is the only party
that can bring at once the reforms
which the people need. and I am sure
that reformers cannot be deceived by
the leaders who pretending to repre-
sent labor. are now trying to assist the
Republican party. which is the open foe
of labor. and who, having posed as enc
mics of the trusts. now join hands with
Rockefeller. Hartman and Carnegie in
supporting the Republican party, which
is TODAY the champion and bulwark of
all the trusts.
s.What q spectacle the Republican
campaign presents at, its close. the Re-
publican candidate trying to repudiate
the support OF the trust n1agnates. who
are coming out from under cover and
their loyalty to him. and
at the same time trying to claim the
support of labor leaders like Mitchell
and Duncan and Morris. who are open
" repudiating them. Surely the hour
has come for a return of the govern
ment 20 the hands of the people. Let
the people rule Wliilam j. Bryan

WOOD STILL RULES

 MATERIAL.
More of The Approved Ere Proof Material is Used Esach Year Hut Wood StfiG
 Leads.

Great as the advance in firs-proof construction has been during the last ten years there has been no iet-up in the use of lumber. and both architects and builders find themselves. so de- pendent on wood to-day that they are compelled to amit that the forests of the country are likely to be the chief source of building material for many years to come.
 'aThe use of cement terro cotta brick and stone with a framework of steel. will make 1t possible soon to do away with wood entirely" is a remark often heard, and. indeed. when one stands on lower Broadway and looks up at the towering sky scrappers. the statement seems to contain much truth. As a matter of fact, however. the popular idea that fire-proof materials will do away with the need of using lumber in O comparatively few years is . very erroneous one. All of the various ire-proof materials going into the approved construction Of the more substantial buildings are used tn greater quantities now than the world dreamed of 6 few years ago, yet ths heavy demand for lumber eontinuAa

by the annual builjing records. 0e the permits used for buildings erected last year, approximately 6l per cent were constructed of wood. and the re- maining s9 per cent of fire resisting material, according to q report Issued by the Geological Survey on opera tions in forty-nine leading cities oi the country. These figures are the more signlflcant when it is realized that they only represent tlae buifiing activities fin the largest cities: they do not take into account the construe. ton Of dwellings, stores and other buildings fin the thousands of small cities and towns scattered over ana not included In the forty-nine cities on which the reckoning is made,
 Tn towns and small cities wood is usually the predominating building material and it is safe to say that if the statistics had included figures for all places of whatever size. the par centage of wooden construction would nave been much greater These figures, as a rule, arc only for the corporate limits. and the suburbs of these cities hava each very large amounts to be added. The cost. also is relatively higher in these cities than in towns nearer the base of the supply.

FOR THE CONSUMER
TAFT TO CONSIDER HIM IN TARIFF
 MATTER.
preaictRon Made That For Once The Republieana WiII Try To Give The Consumer SOTne
 Consideration.


 That he wants'a genuine revision of the tariff, revision which bears In mind the consumer as well as the pro- ducer and manufacturer, was made very plain . by Presidont-elect Taft at the White House today. says Wal ter Wellman in The Chicago Record Herald.
 He made no formal statement on the subiect. but in conversation with a party of visitors spoke in way which left no doubt as to his attitude. He seems to be somewhat disturbed over the reports that. as is usually the case whe nthe tarife is to be revised, only inc producers and manufacturers ap- near before the Ways and Means Com mittee, while the consumer Is unrepre- ssnted and apparently overlooked and
 It is predicted by those who have talked with MT, Taft that In the first Presidential message which he sends to Congress, which he Is to call to an extraordinary session next March, he will have something to say about the need of real revision of the tariff and in opposition to the usual method of making a tariff wholly for it's direct beneficiaries. It is. also predicted that in this very question the leadership of the new President is to get its first and perhaps most severe test. If he can force the standpatters of the House of Representatives and of the Senate to realize and meet the expectations of the people for & revision along broad lines for the millions of consumers as we'll as for the few thousand manu- factursrs and producers. he will achieve q great victory indeed.
 No one as yet knows how far the new President is willing to go in cham pionship of this piece of legislation. He is entitled to time in which to map out his policy and announce that poll icy in his own words. His own ideas as to what should be done are well known. Whether or not he is willing to make an issue of it. and boldly at tempt to compel Congress to follow his leadership. remains to be seen.
 Men who have watched the tariff game in Washington for many years. Venture the prophecy that uniess AlE Taft does think it best to seize the bull by the horns and advocate tariff reform with all the prestige of his name and place ct the head of the government and leader of the Republican Party, the outcome of the coming revision will be another tariff made for the producers and manufacturers and largely for those ot the eastern part oA ths country m other words, a great majority of the changes of rates will be upward and not downward. and the bulk of the schedules will be left as they are today. The game Is already set that way. And one of the most important and inter- esting questions in American politics today is this: Has Mfr Taft the courage to make himself the leader of the move. ment Co break up this gamer If. as is WFnf8 h1a that hA aAmVVAWnn a in the affirmative. the next question will be-: is he strong enough to secure results or win the stand-patters and upward reviSers in the two houses of Cons gress have their way. tn ther endi onlS aaaaAznans A,nazEa1s Aha1s
