coMMONER SAYS HE RECOG-
NlZES WILL OF THE PEOPLE

LINCOLN, Neb.. Nov. 5.-William
J. Bryan today issued the following
statement:
The election has gone against us
by q decisive majority. The returns
are not all in, and it is impossible at
the present time to analyze them or
to say what causes contributed most to
the Republican victory. We made our
fight upon a platform which embodies
what we believed to be good for the
American people. but 1t is for the peo-
pie themselves to decide what laws
they desire aud what methods Of gov
ernfaent they prefer. u have faitit that
the publicity which we asked for will
yet commend itself to the American
people; that the election of senators
by the people will be secured; THAT the
1niQuities of the trust will arouse an
opposition that will result in the elm
ination Of the principle of private mo-
nopoly. I am confident that the peo-
pie will see the necessity for the labor
which our platform demanded. l am
confident. too. that the educational
work done in this campaign will result
in securing greater protection to bank
prominent reforms for which we la,
bored. and 1 believe that these re-
forms will yet come together with
more effective regulation of railroads
and independence for the Filipinos.
II desire to commend the work OF
our national committee. l am entire
ly satisfied with Mr.. Mack as the
chairman and with the members OF
the committee. l do not see what
thS- could have done more than they
did, and as for myself, l put forth
every effort in my power to secure
victory for our cause. The nomina
ton came from the hands of the vo
ters; l have obeyed their command
and have led as best l could. Words
! will not express my gratitude for the
devotion which has been shown by
millions of Democrats during the past
twelve years. Neither am I able to
adequately express my appreciation
for the kind words which have been
spoken since the election.
III l could regard the defeat as
purely a personal one. 1 would con-
slider 1t blessing rather than mis-
fortune, for l am relieved of the bur
dens and responsibilities of an office
that Is attractive only in proportion as
1t gives an opportunity to render a
larger public service. But i shall serve
as willingly in private capacity as In
= public one. God does not require
great things of US; he only requires
that we improve the opportunities that
are presented, and | shall be glad 10
improve the opportunities for service
presented by private life.
In this hour Of national defeat,
find sifses consolation in the cordial
support given by my neighbors. by
the citizens Of Lincoln and by the peo-
pie Of the state Of Nebraska. With a
Democratic governor and Democrat
i6 legislature, we shall be able to put
no practice SO much OF the Denver
l1dorm as relates to state legisla,
ton. and l trust that our state will
ence for good in the nation"

didacy of s. NJ. Burke for the office Of

the county by so, he can always point
to the warm endorsement Of his

this endorsement in anyway a criti.
