Prospects for the success of the Democratic party in Nebraska tlii9 fall have recently been heightened by the announcement thut for the ? first time In years there is good feeling between United States Sonator Hitchcock and William Jennings Lryau and that .Mr. Bryun is now in 'Nebraska speaking in the interest of the reelection ot Senator Hitchcock and the State ticket, headed by Churles E. Bryan, brother of the Commoner, as the parly candidate for governor. In the Suites of the Central West and Northwest .Mr. Bryun has an immense following, especially among the farmers, and it is gratifying to read that he is actively In the cumpalgn this year. With the passing of the years one is not surprised when he reads that the average public man who yesterday* was a champion of the people's cause in some . great issue lias shifted about until today his- viewpoint is changed and that he 13 to bo found where the Jiugle of the coin is loudest. Not so, however, with Mr. Bryan. He is today, as he was nearly a third of a century ago when the Democratic party first put him up as its candidate for the presidency, an advocate of the things test in government for the mass of the people. Little wonder, therefore, that he has been able 11 i A Hundreds oi of users in every line of / -/ cutting hau Hverv coat? 11 One-ton Tru 11 show you w I I No obligatio: |H desired.

To emphasize the fact one ( needs but to recall that to him is | largely due the credit fhr the adoption of the prohibition amendment to the federal constitution and for the amendment lor the direct election of United States senators. It is to be * hoped that the pcopie of Nebraska ' and the other atut*s la which Mr. i Bryau will speak during the present ^ campaign will need his words, for he can be depended upon to urge the* election of men who will not seek.to pass laws compelling the people to turn their pockets inside out that th. profiteers and other money grabbers niair swipe the little they have left ( after the Republican buccaneers have been in charge of the national government for the-last few years.
