i | Our Lincoln Letter.
( Concluded from page one. )
.r been -made much of by the repub-
[ Hcan press , but in this connection
' it may be interesting to know a few
facts. The Sun opposed Mr. Bryan
j- in 1896. In 1900 it remained neu
* . tral until the last week or two of
/ the campaign and then gave Mr.
Bryan a half-hearted support that
was really worse than open hostil
ity. In 190i the Sun supported
Parker vigorously , yet Mr. Parker
polled fewer votes" in Maryland
with the Sun's hearty support than
Mr. Bryan polled in 1900 when the
Sun was damning him with faint
praise.
The weekly democratic press is
performing valiant work. It is a
pleasure to go through them and
see the vigorous work they are do
ing in behalf of the democratic
ticket and platform. And after all
it is the weekly press the local
papers that are anxiously awaited
guests at the family fireside that
get in real touch with the people.
The weekly democratic papers
have always been loyal , but this ! !
year they are excelling all previous I I
efforts. The tone of the newspa
pers , daily and weekly , ? s decidedly
encouraging.
The reports from
that reach Lincoln are most en- |
couraging. For the first time in
twelve .years the democrats of that
state are in entire harmony and
are working heart and soul for
democratic victory. Chairman
Mack , who is a Xew Yorker , and
in close touch with Xew York pol-1
itics , is sanguine of success in the
Empire State. He says that the ;
indications are that New York will
go democratic by close to 100,000 ,
and he has figures to back up the
stat2ment.

But here ja a little inci- '
dent that will be interesting. A
newspaper correspondent well
known in this immediate vicinity
was in Chicago last week , and in
cidentally called at republican na
tional headquarters. A member
of that committee asked about Ne
braska and expressed incredulity
when he was told that Bryan
would carry the state. "Why , I'll
bet he'll not carry Lincoln , or Lan
caster county or Nebraska I'll
bet he does'not carry either of the
three. "
"How much ? " asked the corres
pondent.
' '
'Anything you name.
"All right , make it § 250 , " said
the correspondent , pulling a draft
for twice that much from his pock
et. Or make it § 500 or § 1,000. "
The member of the committee
weakened , but after some good { j
natured joshing agreed to wager a
