> What Bryan Has to Say * about Democracy's Defeat Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 7.?William J. Bryan to-day gave ou' the following statement: The election has gone agaimt us by a decisive majority. The retnrns are not all in and i' is impossible a', the present time to analyse them or to say what causes contributed most ?o tb?> Republican victory. vv e made our fight upon a platform which embodied what we believed to be good lor the American people but it is for the people themselves to decide what laws they desire and wha' methods of Government they prefer. I have taith that the publici'y which we asked for will yet commend itself to the' American people, that the election of Senators by the people will he secured, that the iniqui ties ol the trusts will arouse an opposition that will result in the elimination of the principl * of private monopoly. I am confident that the people wilt see the neces-dtyWcr the labor legislation, and the tariff reduction which our platform demanded 1 am confident, too, that thecdu ca'innal work done in this campaign will result, in securing greater protection to bank depositors. "The above are the most prominent retorms for whichjwe labored, .and 1 believe that these reforms will yet. coma together with more effective regulation of railroads, and indpendence for the Filipinos. "1 desire to commend the work of our national committee. I am entirely satisfied with Mr. Mack, as the chairman, and with the members oi the committee. 1 do not see how they did and as for myself, I put forth every ' effort in mv nowsr to bpwir? A' ~ wwwv.victory for our cause. The nomination came from the hands of the voters. I have obeyed their command, and have led as best I could. Words will not express my gratitude for the willingness of^thejDemocrats 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. If I could regard the defeat as purely a personal one 1 would consider it a blessing rather than a misfortune, for 1 am relieved of the burdens and responsibilities of an office that i9 attractive only in proportion as is given an opportunity to render a larger public servio. Hut I shall serve as willingly in a private capacity as in a pub'.ic one. God does not require great things ot us. He only require^ that we improve the opportu nities that are presented; and 1 shall be glad to improve the opportunities lor service presented by private lile "In this hour of national defeat I find some consolation in the cordial support given by ray neighbors, by the citizens ol Lincoln, and by the people ol the State of Nebraska. With a Dam ocratic Governor, and a Democratic Legislature, we shall be able lo put into practice so much of the Denver platform as relates to Stale legislation, and I trust that our Slate 'will set an example that will be an influence for good in the nation."
