BRYAN FOR WOMEN
Secretary of State to Give Sup
port to Nebraska SUI
frage Amendment.
ISSUES FURMAL STATEMENT
Would Ask No Political Right for Him
self That His Wife Could
Not Have.

Washington.-Secr Bryan, in
formal statement just issued, came
out for woman suffrage. He declared
that he would ask no political right
for himself that he was not willing to
grant his wife and announced his in
tention Of supporting the proposed
state constitutional amendment eX
tending the franchise to women to be
voted upon in Nebraska next Novem-
Der.
Woman, Mr.. Bryan said, had proved
herself equal to every responsibility
imposed upon her and would not fail
society in this emergency. Above all
other arguments in favor of giving her
the ballot he placed the right of the
mother to a voice in the molding of
the environment Of her children.
THE mother" the secretary said,
can justly claim the right to employ
every weapon which can be made eff
fective for the protection Of those
whose interests she guards and the
ballot will put within her reach all of
the instrumentalities of government,
including the police power"
The voters of Nebraska will, at the
election next November, adopt or re-
ject a proposed amendment extend
ing suffrage to women on equal terms
with men, said Mr.. Bryan LAS a
citizen of that state it will be my duty
to participate in the decision to be
rendered at the polls have delayed
expressing an opinion on this sub
ject partly because have been seek
ing information and partly because
my time has been occupied with ma
tionaI questions upon which the en-
| tire country was acting; but now that
| the issue is presented in my state
I take my position. 1 shall support
| the amendment I shall ask no pO-
IiticaI rights for myself that 1 am not
willing to grant to my wife.
The first objection which I Temem-
Der to have heard was that, as woman
| cannot bear arms, she should not have
a voice in deciding questions that
might lead to war or in enacting laws
| that might require an army for their
enforcement This argument is sci
/ dom heard now

Its Effort to Force Reduc-
tion to Five Cents.

Washington, D. C.-With the senate
insistent upon retaining the present
allowance of 20-cent mileage for con-
gressmen, the house voted 1872 to 122
to recede from its vote to cut the mile
age allowance to cents. The house
conferees had been instructed to insist
upon the house provision for 5 cents
a mile Twenty-cent mileage had been
in vogue in congress since the early
days of the government.
The senators told the house con-
ferees that they never would agree to
the proposition to reduce the 20-cent
allowance and it was on this fixed de-
termination on the part of the senate
that the house conferees will present
their report of continued disagreement
and to ask further instructions.

arrived here an hour before. Behind
him came another train, also loaded
with soldiers, to guard against any
rear movements.
Captain Kohler and his staff in for
NAL dress uniforms were at the sta
tion and were officially presented to
General Huerta, who thanked the cap
tain for his call and for the offer of
his boat
Answering inquiries as to the state
of his health, General Huerta assured
the officers that he felt very we'll, al
though somewhat tired from the heat.
No Cheers On Arrival.

ViOusly had arrived lined along the

needs. And, it does all this without injur-
ing the stomach. In fact, Rexall Olive Oil
Emulsion is not only pleasant to take, but
even the most sensitive stomach is bene-
