County option is practically prohibition.
II enough men can be elected next fall
to pass a county option bill, they will not
stop there, 1t will be state wide prohibit
ton. That's the program. Bryan is EVIL
IDENTIFY afraid the democrats will win next
fall and he wants to block the game. II
the republicans put county option in their
platform and the democrats do not, the
democrats will sweep the state, II both
parties put county option in their plat
forms the republicans will win by 5000
majority. The s o'clock law is popular in
the country districts and unpopular in
cities. The chances are that no effort will
be made to modify this law. And the demo-
Gratis could do worse in their state conven-
ton than to simply endorse the last legis-

In his pronuncamento that Brother
Charley carried about until he was hump
backed. he says:
Liquor interests interfere in all matters
that may even remotely affect their inter
ests. They made themselves odious in the
last session OF the Nebraska legislature.
The democrats had a majority Of both
branches for the first time in the states
history, and the splendid record OF the
legislature has but one blot on II, and that
blot was put there by the liquor inter-
ests, They controlled enough senators 10
prevent the submission Of initiative and
referendum.
Now, let's call a spade a spade. Bryan
says the last Legislature made a splendid
record with the exception Of passing one
Of his individual hobbies, namely, the
Initiative and referendum. Without dis
cusslng at this time the merits Of the
initiative and referendum, every one knows
that bill was not an issue in the last cam
paign. Tit democrats ran on a specific
platform 1t suited the people and the
democrats elected a majority Of the legis
lature. A powerful element OF that major
ity Of voters was controlled by the liquor
interests. Without II the democrats would
have beeen swamped. Bryan knows this,
yet he growls because the men elected by
the support of the liquor interests will
not give them the double cross.
Omaha daily bee., 1910-02-17

The people knew what the issues were.
At every political meeting during the cam
paign the democratic candidates for the
legislature from Douglas county an
nounced that they were opposed to prohibit
ton and opposed to county option. Moth
ing was said about the initiative and refer
endum. In fact, while the liquor question
is in the air, the initiative and referendum
is considered a prohibition move.
Omaha daily bee., 1910-02-17

There would lave been no such thing as
a democratic legislature had 1t not been
for the liquor interests. For the last forty
years the democratic party has gone on
record In every important convention held
as being opposed to the passage of sump-
tuary laws. Bryan helped write many of
these planks, and endorsed them all. He
accepted the support Of the liquor interests
when ne ran for congress-, and in every
other campaign when he could get It.
When he was jumping sideways for bread
and the seat of his breeches wore, a patch,
the jack-pots raised by the liquor interests
for campaign purposes looked mighty good
to Willie. Now that he has got his bit, and
is s%trolling along the shady side Of easy
street, he starts the cry Of wolf.
Bryan is simply out to bust up the
democratic party. He realizes that he
cannot be elected himself, and he don't
want any other democrat to win. He has
enjoyed a powerful following, but it is get
ting away from him fast Men who have
followed him faithfully for years and years
now openly announce they are done. But
Bryan won't quit. He is bound to keep in
the limelight. 1t is a boost for his bust
ness. His paper, books and lectures must
be advertised. And he may be strong
enough to keep the democrats from elect
ing a president next time. And this in the
face Of the best opportunity the demo-
Gratis have had in years. 1t is all self with
Bryan. The success Of the party is a
secondary consideration with him.
