HIS PARTY HAS DONE ALL GOOD
All That Has Not Been Done Is the
Fault of Roosevelt and the Repub
lican Congress ; All That Has Been
Done IB Due to Mr. Bryan.
MCrom Thurmlny'a Dally. ]
William Jennings Dryan , democra
cy's foremost figure today , drew a
crowded house nt the Auditorium In
Norfolk and In his own Inimitable elo
quence painted the republican party
In the blackest of black colors for an
hour. Ho arrived In the special train
bought by the fuslonlsts as a means
of getting votes for the state and con-
grotmlonal tickets. Although Judge
Graven , fusion nominee for congress ,
arrived on the train with Mr. Hrynn ,
ho did not put In nn npponranco nt
the rally. A. C. Slmllonhorgor nnd M.
F. Harrington of O'Neill were on the
train and made speeches , Shallcnborg-
or before and Harrington nftor , Mr.
Uryan.
Senator Allen Spoke.
Former United States Senator Wil
liam V. Allen of Madison had been In
vited to Introduce Mr. Bryan and ho
drove up during the nftornoon , with
four or live other Madison people. Dr.
Dear , as chairman of the local com
mittee on arrangements , Introduced
Senator Allen snmo tlmo before the
Drynn train arrived and the senator
entertained the audience with a very
brief discussion of the government
ownership problem , declaring that the
ultimate prosperity of this country de
pends upon government ownership of
the railroads.
At last Mr. Bryan's bald head was
scon entering the Auditorium and Sen
ator Alien notified the crowd by say
ing , "Hero ho comes. "
Mr. Bryan walked directly through
the Hlngo door and on the platform ,
lie was greeted with cheers. On the
platform wore John Hulff , Dr. Bear ,
Henry llnuso , A. Morrison , Herman
Winter , Judge Douglas Cones of
Plorco , ( who climbed upon the plat
form from the orchestra pit with the
assistance of Senator Allen ) Herman
Xltkowskl fusion candidate for repre
sentative fiom Madison county , M. F.
Harrington of O'Neill , A. C. Shallen-
horgor , fusion candidate for governor ,
\V. II. Green of Croighton , fusion can
didate for lloutcnant-govornor , Judge
I. G. Wostorvolt , Mr. Cowan of Stanton -
ton and John Mntheson of Pllgor , fu
sion candidate for state senator from
the Eleventh district.
Shallenberger Begins.
Dr. Bear joked the audience n llttlo
when ho introduced Banker Shallen-
berger ns "Farmer Shnllonborgor" and
Mr. Shallenborgcr arose before a Nor
folk audience for the third tlmo In
this campaign. Ho had opened his
campaign hero early In the fall , ho
had boon hero a few days ago and ho
returned to wind up things In the
Third district on the Bryan train. Ho
poke with the same rapid flro oratory
that has characterized his former Nor
folk speeches , and ho told the same
stories that ho has told before so that
to many of the audience his speech
was but a repetition of things they
had listened to boforo. Ho discussed
the same Issues ho has taken up be
fore and told his egg story and his
skeleton story over again and then
paid the same glowing tribute to Wil
liam Jennings Bryan of Nebraska that
ho had uttered on former occasions.
Mr. Bryan's Speech.
Senator Allen briefly Introduced Mr.
Bryan. Ho said , "I take pleasure in
Introducing to you the world's great
est orator , William J. Bryan. "
Mr. Bryan said ho was glad to bo
again with Nebraskans for ho owes
to thorn all that ho Is or hopes to be
In nolltlcs. His voice was hoarse after
< \ hard dny'a speaking campaign nnt
his shoulders scorned to droop just a
little , though It was not apparen
whether this was n momentary drooi
or ono acquired since his last visit to
Norfolk. Ho announced that ho wouh
speak but three-quarters of an hour.
Ho then opened up nnd discussei
passenger faros , freight rates , the pro
toctlvo tariff , the republican < ongrcss ,
the trusts , the republican party , dem
ocratic glory , the money question and
the government ownership of rail
roads.
Refers to Free Sliver.
Perhaps ono of the most Interesting
clauses In Mr. Bryan's speech was
that In which ho touched upon his old-
time free silver Issue. He declared
that In 189G ho had predicted higher
prices If the government would but
make more money. Ho said that the
discovery of now gold mines had pro
duced the same effect upon our cur
rency that free silver would have pro
duced , Increasing the amount of mon
ey In circulation , and that prices had
risen accordingly. It was this old
free silver Issue , apparently , In anew
form , that had made the present pros
perous condition of this country.
On Government Ownership.
Another Interesting feature of the
speech was Mr. Bryan's clause on gov
ernment ownership of railroads. It
was essential because lie declared In
i i > t 1 1 . .
bin Mndlmm Square speech ( lint the
qovcTinnont must own the railroads
*
nnd ha declared later down In Georgia ,
where the southern democrats were
dlHploascd with the theory , that the
government must not own the rail
roads until regulation has failed. Mr.
Uryan said In Norfolk that he stands
with the president on government own-
orHhlp almost. Ho says the president
Hays , "If the railroads can not bo reg
ulated , then they must bo controlled. "
"I strike out the If , " snld Mr. Bryan ,
"for I claim that they can not bo con
trolled. "
Briefly Mentioned Graves.
Mr. Bryan referred to the fusion con
gressional nominee very briefly. In
fact his reference was so scant as to
excite some wonder among the audi
ence as to what was the thing damp
ening his enthusiasm for the Third
district "reform" candidate.
Mr. Bryan , for some reason or oth
er , loft off the title , "Judge" when
speaking of Graves , and referred to
him Invariably as "Mister Graves. "
"Mister Graves Is entitled to the
cordial , earnest support of every dem
ocrat , every populist nnd every repub
lican who wants reform , " declared Mr.
Bryan. Then , to back up his state
ment nnd to try to make the people of
thlH district bcllovo that a democratic
congressman was some account when
his hands were tied by n republican
president and administration , Mr. Bry
an stated that democrats had stood by
the president more solidly on reform
matters than had republicans and ho
took to the democratic party and him
self nil credit for all of the good things
that had boon done by Iloosovelt , and
loft for the president and his party
blnmo for all of the things that had
not been accomplished.
By endeavoring to rob the repub
lican president , the republican con
gress nnd the republican party of the
credit for the greatest amount of leg
islative achievement known In a cen
tury , Mr. Bryan mndo an effort to re
flect glory from that session upon the
Third district nominee and thus ap
pealed for votes.
Ho declared that the republican par
ty In ten years of victory had stamped
no policy worth while upon the llfo of
this nation nnd modestly "admitted"
that the democratic party , through ten
'ears of defeat , had coerced the re-
nihllcnns to adopt democratic doc-
rlnqs. nnd to enact them into laws.
Mr. Bryan claimed credit for all that
{ oosovclt has done "Ho got his In-
plrntlon from democratic platforms , "
10 said. "Ho has followed democracy ,
nit democracy Is still In the lead. "
Attacks Roosevelt and Tariff.
Mr. Bryan cast a strong Insinuation
against President Roosevelt nnd the
cpubllcnn party when ho nsld , "They
lou't dare reform the tariff. And so
hey met down at Oyster Bay and de
cided to stand pat. That must be a
tad tiling or they never would have
igreed on it. 'Stand pat' is a gam-
/ler's term and it Is fitting that such
a term should be used by a party
vhich has made such a lottery of busl-
less. "
Ho declared that the republican par-
y Is weaker today than It was ten
years ago and that all of the ropub-
lean party which has not been con
verted to democracy , is bad. He said
that there Is but ono man on whom the
republicans can hope to win now ,
vhllo there were many of them ton
years ago , and the reason that this
mo man has escaped the blight is
hat ho has followed democracy's
cachings and left the grand old party.
Mr. Bryan said that the republican
mrty Is now divided Into two sides ,
ho reformers and the standpatters ,
lo declared that Beverldge represent
ed the reform clement and Fairbanks
the conservatives , and ho argued that
Bpvorldge Is out with a boll trying to
; ot people to wake up while Falr-
> ahks has chloroform and Is telling
people "to sleep on sleep on ! "
lie says the republican party Is In
the throes of a struggle between these
two elements and that If the stand
patters win the reformers must all
become democrats while if the reform
ers win the stand patters will have no
place on earth to go.
" Not ? "
"Why Regulate Burglars
Mr. Bryan declared that trusts can
not bo regulated nnd that private mo
nopoly is Indefensible. And although
ho painted in gorgeous colors the ev
ils of private monopoly .attempting to
make people believe that republican
ism Is hand in Klovo with private mo
nopoly , ho offered no solution of the
matter further than that which is now
being effected by President Roosevelt ,
lie made a play for popular cars when
ho said , "They talk of regulating
trusts. Why not regulate burglary
Why not pass a law making It a crime
for more than two burglars to enter n
house at the same tlmo or for burg
lars to take more than half the val
uables they find ? "
Mr. Bryan says that Roosevelt Is
more radical today than Bryan was
ten years ago. "And yet ho has no
gone far enough. Ho has done wol
considering his environment but ho
needs democrats In congress. "
Bryan Leads the World.
I nm still as radical as I was ten
years ago , " said Mr. Bryan. "I had to
cable all the way across the Atlantic
ocean to make people bollovo that
and then I could hardly convince them
They called mo dangerous then nm
I am still radical. I have had a hard
tlmo to keep up with the radical pro
cession. Roosevelt declared that rail
roads must bo owned by the govern
meat If they would not keep out o
politics , nnd I only beat him to It b >
about six months. That was the clos
cst call I over had. In most things
am ton years ahead of the rest of th
world. "
Tribute to Allen.
Mr. Bryan paid a tribute to a Mad
IHOII county man former United Stntos
Senator William V. Allen. "Tho state
IUIH not had n representative senator
since the term of that people's friend ,
William V. Allen , expired , " snld Mr.
Uryan. The remark was greeted with
hearty applause.
Mr. Bryan and his party spout the
night In tholr special train which was
stationed on n siding at Norfolk av
enue nnd Seventh street. They loft
at 9 for Battle Crock.
Harrington Speaks.
After Mr. Bryan's speech , M. P.
Harrington of O'Neill addressed the
audience on government ownership of
railroads. Ho deplored the fact that
ho should have to follow Mr. Bryan ,
commended the state fusion ticket and
then delivered arguments for govern
ment ownership. Mr. Harrington nnd
other fuslonlsts of O'Neill have orga
nized n "government ownership" club.
ADVERTISING MATTER NOT USED
Package of Placards for Bryan MeetIng -
Ing Refused by Democrat.
Ono of the amusing features of the
Bryan mooting in Norfolk , and indeed
It must' have boon humiliating to fu-
slonlsts who take prldo In the party
loyalty of candidates , was the fact
that a package of advertising matter
sent to this city from Lincoln , intend
ed for distribution In order to adver
tise the Bryan-Shnllcnborgor meeting ,
was refused by a local fusion candi
date for ofllco because of an express
charge of fifty-five cents attached to
the bundle. The package contained
probably a couple of thousand of pla
cards , printed especially for the Nor
folk meeting , nnd therefore their use
fulness is now dead.
The bundle of advertising dates
came several days ago , addressed to
"Herman B. Xltkowskl. " Mr. Zltkow-
skl is the fusion candidate for repre
sentative from Madison county to the
state legislature. When the material
arrived , the bundle was taken in a
wagon and tendered the fusion candi
date. When the express charge on
tlio advertising material of his party ,
which had been Intended to draw a
crowd to the mooting for the purpose
of benefiting the entire fusion ticket ,
Mr. Zitkowskl declined to pay nnd the
bundle of dates wore taken back to
the express ofllco. The charge on
thorn was fifty-five cents.
Notice has been sent to the Lincoln
ofllco of the express company that the
package was refused. The bundle still
lies In the Norfolk express office.
This Is what the cards say :
Hon. Win. J. Bryan
and
A. C. Sliallonbergor
Candidate for Governor
Will Speak on the Issues of the Cam
paign at Norfolk
Wednesday , October 31st , at 8:00 : p.m.
This will be the most Important polit
ical meeting ever held.
Don't Miss It.
It is apparent that the democratic
leaders In the state expected that the
Madison county fusion candidate for
the state legislature would be glad to
pay fifty-five cents for the good of the
cause.
Mr. Nitkowski was one of the party
of local democrats who sat on the
stage at tlio Auditorium last night
during the speech of Mr. Bryan.

WILL ROUND OUT DEVELOPMENT
He Declares That Dlsfranchlsement Is
a Survival of the Ancient Patriarch
al Days and That Conditions Have
Changed Points to Women Rulers.
London , Oct. 31. The woman's suf-
rage question Is still causing great
xcltomont here , owing to the imprls-
nment of the eleven "suffragists , " for
making a disturbance In the house of
otnmons. Many sympathizers are
coloring themselves In favor of the
nnso. Among others , Israel Zang-
vlll has been Interviewed and said :
"I Imagine on any questions woman
vouldn't have very different opinions
rom men , unless it was on factory
cts and other questions , directly con-
ernlng women , when they would
) ring now and valuable view-points ,
'oo much is made of the influence
vhlch the right to vote , if given to
vomcn , would have on dally llfo. Af-
or all , It would merely mean that they
vould have to go to the ballot box on
n average , I suppose , of once in four
ears. How can that bo such a dis-
urblng factor ? The disfranchlsoment
f one sex in the family can bo traced
ack to the old days when the man
vns the family high priest and when
its was the right to perform the do-
nestic ritual. The transformation
rom the patriarchal conception ofwo-
uon's status has necessarily been
normously slow , and the objection to
cinale suffrage is the last vestige of
i.
"It is not the oppression of woman
ut a difference of her function that
s leading up to the change , and , as
