The Prosperity Argument Won-lie Thinks That the Repuablicans' strong.st Card. The Fight Must Gn On-- Vo Complaints Lincpin, Neb., Nov. 8.-Wm. J. Bryan tonight gave out the follow ing statement concerning the elec tion: "The result was a surprise to me, and the magnitude of the Republi can victory was a surprise to our op ponents as well as to those who voted our ticket. It is impossible to an alyze the returnB until they are more complete, but speaking generally, we seem to have gained in the large cities and to have lost in the smaller cities and in the country. "The Republicans were able to secure tickets or passes for all their, voteis who were away from home, and this gave considerable advantage. We have no way of knowing at this time how much money was spent in the purchase of votes and in coloni. zation. But while these would ac 'count for some of the Republican gains, they could not account for the 'widespread increase in the Republi can vote. The prosperity argument was probably the most potent oni used by the Republicans. They com pared present conditions with the panic times of 1893 and 18943 and this argument had weight with Shose who did not stop to consider the rea sons for the change. The appeal, 'Stand by the president while the war is on,' had a great deal of influ ence among those who did not real ize that a war against a doctrine of self government in the Philippines m ust react upon us in this country. We made an honest light upon the honest platform, and baving done our duty as we saw it, we have noth. ing to regret. "We are defeated' but not discour aged. The light must go on. I am sure that republican policies will be repudiated by the people when the tendencies of these policies are fully understood. The contest betweoen plutocracy and democracy cannot end until one or the other is completely trinmphant." Concerning himself Mr. Bryan .said: "I have comae ut th ampai Day in the W Store in the town ,ou know, love tc :least money. 1 ieap as M g power and outl money, or same g md Silks. of Dress Goods An< )ne-half the other is thE goods.

I did my beat to bring sue cess to the principles for which I stood. Mr. Stevenson did all that he could: Senator Jones and the members of the Democratic, Popu list, Silver Republican and Anti-Im. perialist committees did all they could. Mr. Hearst and his associ ates in the club organization put forth their best efforts. Our news-. papers, our campaign speakers and our local organizations did their part also. I have no fault to find and no reproaches. I shall continue to take an active interest in politics as long as I live. I believe it to be the duty of citizens to do so, and in addition to my interest as a citizen, I feel that it will require a lifetime of work to repay the political friends who 1 have done so much for me. I shall not be a senatorial candidate before the legislature which has been electel ed. Senator Allen deserves the sen atorship which goes to the Populistei. Mr. Hitchcock and Mr. WV. H. Thomp son are avowed candidates for the other senatorship. They both de serve well of the party, and I am too grateful to them for past support to stand in their way even if I desired a seat in the senate." Mr. Bryan said he had no other plans at p)resent than to remain at home until he had recovered from' the fatigue of campaigning. He do nied the report that he would remove from Nebraska and make Texas his home. McKinley Carrieg Ne braak.
