Col. Williain Jennings Bryan has
not yet earned the title of "Lin
coln's richest citizen," but in the
past three years lie has maide rapid
strides toward that honor. After
the election of 1896 lie issued an ad

said: /
"The Republican candidate has
been heralded as the advance agent
of prosperity. If this proves to be
true, we will all share in that pros
perity.'

of accurate pr)phiecy. Hei has pros
pered, and pro.spe-red very well.
