nings Bryan on his arrival in Reno
yesterday morning was Something
of frost. according 10 the Ca
zette, which declares the sudden
changing of plans served to confuse
and also caused resentment on the
part of the rank and file of the
party at the undue action OF the
leaders. The Gazette says:
Showing the same rare misjudg-
ment that has characterized demo
cratic campaigns in previous years.
the Bryan program was changed at
the last moment upon the arrival OF
the Peerless One in Reno and in
stead OF going to Virginia City by
train as planned, Bryan was sent
over the grade in an automobile
His reception was in the nature
of frost. But handful of persons
greeted the Democratic leader and
although orders had been issued to
hold the V g. T. train Is minutes
so that Bryan might address the
students of the University of Ne
vada. there was no occasion for the
wait The students didn't show
up.
"A sprinkling Of democratic en-
thusiasts assembled at the various
stations along the V. & T. to catch
a glimpse of Bryan. but all they
saw was flash of yellow as the
cars sped by. Bryan was enjoying
the luxury of high powered auto
mobile instead of a common rail
road coach.
Many democrats who had hoped
to extend greetings to Bryan and
accompany him to Virginia City By
train, refused to go when they
found that the plans had been
changed at the last minute.
This move on the part of the
democratic campaigners has caused
bitter resentment and disappoint
ment among members of the party
and opened again the old wounds
which were believed TO have heal
ed"

with regard to the speech of Col
Bryan as delivered at Virginia City:
