TO prevent the Nebraskan's election
The prediction did not wait long for
fulfilment The morning following
the nomination of Mr. Bryan by the
Denver convention the Hearst news
papers in this city contained editorials
that made 1t plain that Mr. Bryan
could not count on the support Of
Hearst In the campaign.
All efforts of Mr.. Bryan to eoncil

futile in the belief OF political leaders
here. Mr. Hearst has an old score to
settle with his contemporary of tn

supporting the Nebraskan in 1896 and
