BRYAN'SOMAHA SPEECHES
TWO TAXiKS TO KEBRASKA K22FUB
UOAKS TESTERDAT.
Secretary Case lunei a Statement
Sbcrrrlns What Would Be the EC
Sect of Bryan's Election.
OMASA, JTeb., Aug. IE. Mr. Bryan
node two speeches here today, one ot
them in the afternoon, and the other In
the evening. He spoke on both occasions
at Syndicate Park and Tinder the auspices
of the Jacksonlan Club, of this city.
There was a large attendance upon both
epeeches, and applause was frequent and
general. The speeches were made from a
rude platform, of which the boughs of
the flntrees of the park were the only
covering. This stand faced a rather steep
hillside upon which the people stood and
cat, the Increasing elevation lending to
the place the general effect of a huge
theater.
In the afternoon meeting, Mr. Bryan
was preceded by "Webster Davis and
James R. Sovereign. He was not heard i
until after o'clock, and he spoke briefly.
He devoted himself to a considerable ex
tent to state politics, urging the fusion
forces of the state to make sure of the
success, not onjy of the electoral ticket,
but of the members of Congress, United
States Senator and the state ticket as
well. Mr. Bryan said, in part:
"Jefferson used to say that vigilance
was the price of liberty, and I believe
that the greatest danger that we have to
fear in this country is that the people
may not carefully study and ful
ly understand the questions upon
which they are voting; for there Is a
partisanship that is too apt to turn them
away from the truth or to make them
refuse to listen to any one except thoe
who bear their own party brand. "We are
today meeting important questions, and
it is essential to the welfare of this Na
tion that those should Te elected this
Fall who stand for the policies which are
pest for the Government. If Republican
policies are right, then those who repre
sent the opinions held by Democrats,
Populists and Silver Republicans ought
to be overwhelmingly defeated, for there
is a difference between Bpubllcan poli
cies and ours In their terms as wide as
the gulf that separated Lazarus in Abra
ham's bosom from Dives. The policies
for which our people stand are directly
antagonistic to the policies for which the
Republican, party stands, and both can
not be right."
He referred to the Republican policy In
the newly acquired possessions, saying
among other things, on this point:
"The Republicans say wo want a 50
cent dollar; they have given us an 5 per
cent citizen in Porto Rico."
Referring to the Importance of the elec
tion of United States Senators, Mr.
Bryan said:
"I want a Senate that will be In har
mony with the Congress and the Presi
dent if we win this FalL If we had had
a Democrat or Populist In the Senate In
placo of John, M. Thurston there would
be today txo war In the Philippine Isl
ands, because that one vote would have
been sufficient to have carried tho Bacon
resolution, and I do not believe that the
Administration would have carried on a
war against the majority of the Senate.
I want you to feel Interested In a victory
for our principles and go to the polls and
vote for a Legislative ticket that will send
to the Senate men who stand for these
reform principles."
In conclusion, he suggested a series of
questions for his hearers to propound to
their Republican friends, as follows:
"If any Republican tells j-ou that the
money question Is the question of para
mount Importance in tho campaign, ask
him why he has been saying for four
years that the silver question was dead
If it is such a live question. If the Re
publican, says that the gold standard Is
good, ask nlm why Mr. McKlnley sent a
commission to Europe to get rid of that
Question; and If tho gold standard Is bad
enough to Justify a Republican President
in attempting to get rid of It, ask him
If it Is not too bad to keep merely be
cause England wants us to keep It, be
cause English financiers are the cause of
the present financial system in this coun
try. "When our commljsion went abroad
France wanted to help restore blmetal
ism; the laboring men and farmers of
England wanted to holp, and It was Eng
lish financiers who prevented the accom
plishment of the purpose of the commis
sion, and who, through the Republican
policy, are dominating the financial policy
of the United States.
"If a Republican tells you that the trust
is a good thing, ask him why the Repub
lican platform denounces the trusts; and
if he says the trust system Is bad. ask
him why the Republican party allowed
more trusts to be formed during the last
three years than had ever before been
organized in all the history of the coun
try. "If a Republican, says imperialism is
good, you ask him why it Is; if he says
that the Filipinos belong to us. ask hlra
how we got them; demand of him an ab
stract of title to the Filipinos, and he
cannot show even a quitclaim deed from
anybody who ever had any authority to
give It."
Mr. Bryan talked tonight at Syndicate
Park to one of the largest crowds he has
addressed during the campaign. Indeed
there were many more persons present
than oould hear him. The candidate was
in unusually good condition. He was
among friends and neighbors and he man
ifested his confidence by his freedom of
manner and scope of treatment. The
speech covered much of the ground which
has been gone over before but the lan
guage was generally fresh and the Illus
trations new. The speech was not con
cluded until 10:15 o'clock.
Defining some of his general views and
speaking of civilization in the abstract
and as applied to politics, Mr. Bryan
said:
"I have my Idea of what civilization
should mean. I want to see if It Is your
idea. Some people say that we Democrats
are enemies of property. It is not true.
I have a home; I hope I may somo time
have a better one. I would that every
head of a family had a home and the
better the home tho, happier I would be,
I want property to be the reward of in
dustry and I want every citizen to bo
secure in the enjoyment of the proceeds
of his toil. I do not envy the rich. I am
not desirous of pulling them down.
"I want a civilization that makes every
poor man hope to be better off and re
lieves the rich man of the fear that his
children will bo trampled on If they ever
become poor. (Applause.) I want a civil
isation that embraces within its benefits
every deserving member of society. I do
not want a civilisation that will prevent
a man from riding in a carriage, but I
want a civilisation that gives hopes to the
driver of the carriage, as well as to the
man who rides in it. I want a civiliza
tion that gives hope to the girl who works
in the kitchen as well as to the one who
sits in the parlor (Groat applause.) I
want a civilization that makes life worth
living to every human being. And when
I spenk thus I am not an unselfish man.
I ara selfish. I do not know what may
be my lot n the years to come. I do not
know what will be the lot of my children
and if I dared to favor a system that
helped the few at the expense of the
many, my children may be among the
many who will suffer rather than among
the few who will profit by the law. (Ap
plause.) "I want to ask you what is your idea
ot olvfltzation. Are you satisfied to have
a few grew rich by unjust laws? (Cries
of No.) Arc you willing that a few shall
monopolize the blessings that God Intended
for alt Ms children? (Cries ot 'No.') I be
lieve that the laws of God are good. The
longer-I live and the more I see. the bet
ter satisfied I am that God is infinite in
wisdom and in love as wH as infinite in
power. (Applause.) I find that tho evils
from which we suffer are not God-given
evils, but man-made wrongs and I seek
and you seek to Improve the conditions
which surround the people. (Applause.)
Now which party today Is going to do
most to Taring that civilization which you
desire? If tho Republican party can do
more to bring a civilization In which all
shall participate according to merit, you
ought to vote the Republican ticket."
He then went through the ils.t of issues,
comparing the views of the two parties
to the great advantage, from his stand
point, of tho Democracy.

DANGER OF BRYAMSM.
If Elected, He Conld at Once Put the
Country on a Silver Basis.
"WAStitNGTON. Aug. 25. Secretary
Gage made an Important statement to
day, showing thit in case Bryan is elect
ed he could order his Secretarv of tho
Treasury to make his payments on tho
public debt and currency disbursements
of the Government In silver, and thus
place the Government on a sliver "basis.
He shows that Bryan promised In 1S9G
to do everything he could in this direc
tion, and If he carries out his pledges
made at that time It would certainly
place the Government on a silver basis,
driving gold out of the Treasury and Into
vaults, and result in industrial paralysis

How It Cures Catarrh.
Hero la a patient taking treatment for
Catarrh of the Head. He breathes the
soothing medication through his nostrils
and the nasal channels open up, the
stuffed-up feeling In the head leaves and
he can breathe naturally through the
nose again. The dull pains across the
front of the head fade away, and the
nasal membrane is soothed until tho in
flammation and soreness are all gone.
The bad odor of the breath passes away,
and the lost sense of smell returns. The

W. H. COPELAND, M. D.
J. H. MONTGOMERY, M. D,
WHETHER IT BE RAIN ORSHINE
The Weather-WIse Glovr Worm or
the Busy Bee Can Tell You.
London News.
Bees are excellent weather prophets.
There is a common country saying that
"a bee was never caught In a shower."
When rain is impending bees do not go
far afield, but ply their labor in the im
mediate neighborhood of their hives. This
well-authenticated fact Is set forth in
the rhyme which tells U3 that
When bees to distance wing their flight.
Days are warm and skies are bright;
But when their flight ends near their hom,
Stormy -weather is sure to come.
Just before rain the homing beea may
be .observed entering the hive in largo
numbers, while none come out again.
And, again, when bees are seen vigorous,
ly at work very early in tho morning, un
settled weather may be expected later in
the day; the weather Instincts of the little
creatures apparently leading them to
make up time in advance.
Wasps and hornets are said to have the
weather instinct over a still longer range.
The banks of streams are favorite nest
ing places for these Insects. If the nests
in any season are generally placed high
up in the bank It is always taken by
country people as a sign of a wet season,
the position of the nests being taken in
order to avoid floods. When the nests are
near down to the level of the water, they
foretell a dry and warm season.
Ants, too, are credited with an Instinct
for the weather of a whole season.
When thev are observed at Midsummer
enlarging and building up their dwellings, I
it is said to be a sign or an eariy anu.
cold Winter. The daily habits of the ant,
however, yield a number of more reliable
observations at closer than a season's
range. For Instance, when ants that have
been located in low ground are observed
migrating to higher, it is a sign of heavy
rains. The entrances to their underground
dwellings are always worth noticing, for
an open ant-hole means clear weather,
and a closed one means that a storm is
nnnrnanhlnsr. It Is also said that the di
rection from which the prevailing rains
of tho season will come may be told from
the position of the entrances to ants'
nests, the opening being made with the
aspect that will be driest. This Is also
said of wasps' nests; and, since the south
west is our wettest quarter, it follows
that when many nests are found with
a southwest aspect, the season Is likely
to be a dry one.
There is a wealth of weather wisdom to
be got from observation of spiders. These
Insects cannot spin properly In a high
wind. Before a gale, they may be observed
strengthening their webs. The shape of
the web Is. also a valuable indication.
When the frame lines are short and stout
the Insect's instinct has told It that wind

and rain are coming; whllo long and slen
der frame lines are a very reliable sign of
calm and fine weather. The duration of a
storm can often be foretold by observation
of spiders. If they remain active during
rain, you may be certain it is oniy a show
er and will very soon be over. When, at
the beginning of rain, they retire Into com
plete indolence, the unsettled weather will
almost certainly last .for aome tlme The
time of day at which spiders mend their
nets Is also a good weather sign. If the
mending is observed going on during a
Summer evening, there will be no rain that
night. A purious observation, but well
authenticated, is that when spiders are
Been in large numbers crawling on walls
instead of attending to their nets, wet
weather is impending. The same expec
tation follows when they are seen falling,
without apparent reason, from their-webs.
In time of drought spiders are often the
flrst creatures to give us a hint of a
change coming, for in a long dry period.
If closely woven and funnel-shaped webs
begin to be seen In sheltered positions
about the hedges, the drought Is about to
break up.
Most people have observed gnats with a
view to foretelling the weather, and are
aware that, as tho old "Husbandman's
Practice" puts It, "If gnats be seen to
hover together about the beams of the sun
before It sets, and fly together, making, as
it were, the form of a pillar. It 13 a sure
token of fair weather." If the columns of
gnats sport up and down, ascending and
descending in the evening sunshine, it
foretells heat. -The higher the swarms are
observed, the more settled Is the weather
likely to be. When, however, the swarms
are seen sporting inthe shade, and under
trees, you !bay expect rain; and it they
sting viciously you may be quite sure of
it. The excessive chirping of crickets is
another Insect sign of rain. Glow wqrms,
too, are rain bringing. The more numer
ously and brilliantly they shine the more
likely is wet weather; and it -Is said that
rain is a certainty within 24 hours if
they are seen shining after midnight in
stead of shutting off their light, as usual,
an hour or two before 12.
Ono of the most curious beliefs about an
insect as a weather prophet is concerned
with the larvae of the cicada, commonly
known as the cuckoo spit. This Insect Is
enveloped In a white froth. It it lies in
the 'froth with its head upward the Sum
mer will be dry; if downward, wet. Thl3
is said to be an lnfallble sign. We are

GENERAL DEWET'S RECORD.
The Indomitable Boer, Who Has Held
Out to the Bitter End.
London News.
General Dewet's record In this war la
certainly most creditable to his skill and
knowledge, not only of the country, but
of all the movements of his enemy. He
it was who organized the campaign in
the Southeast Free State, which bdgan

for several weeks and ended In a retire
ment on his part, which was almost leis
urely, and cost him practically nothings
The following summary of Dewet'si
doings since the Invasion of the Trans
vaal was supposed to have put a term
to resistance in the lesser Boer state, ia
not altogether pleasant reading:
May 31 Capture of 400 Yeomanry and
2S wagons at LIndley.
June 4 Capture of 160 Highlanders and
50 wagons near Hellbron.
June 7 Lord Roberts' communications
cut; 20 miles of railway torn up; capture
of the Fourth battalion df Derbyshires
at the Rhenoster; capture of 160 men of
the Railway Pioneer Corps, Roodeval
Station.
June 12 Mcthuen wins a "complete vic
tory" over Dewet, taking his camp and
"scattering his troopt In all directions."
June 23 Dewet again attacks the rail
way. Train "held up" at Honlngspruit;
but Boers beaten off with 400 released
prisoners, under Colonel Bullock.
July 7 Capture of Bethlehem by tho
British. Dewet retires to Fourlesburg.

July 20 (?) Dewet "doubles back" dur

plies to be sent to Roodeval.
July 21-SuppIy train and 100 Highland
ers captured at Honlngspruit.
Honlngspruit and the neighborhood ara
acquiring a specially evil notoriety. There
Is no doubt tnat Dewet knows every con

his home Is situated, and it must be con

heavy interest.
