the Lincoln delegation, which left.here
ten days ago to meet him at New York,
and which Mr. Bryan accompanied on
Its homeward trip, together with a few
of the Nebraska Democratic mayors,
who also went to New York.
“Great Scott!" Says Bryan.
"Great Scott! what a crowd!" ex
claimed the wanderer as he gazed at
the multitude of cheering people. He
smiled happily with an occasional
word to an old acquaintance and bowed
right and left ns he made his way to
the carriage. Seated with him In the
trip'up town were Governor Mickey,
Mayor Brown and John E. Miller, pres
ident of the Lincoln Commercial Club.
A second carriage had Mrs. Bryan,
Mrs. M. D. Welch, Mrs. J. E. Miller
and Mayor Dahlman, of Omaha.
No attempt was made at a parade.
There were six bands In line, however,
and representatives of secret orders.
Along the route Mr. Bryan was re
ceived with every evidence of cor
diality and enthusiasm.
Greeting to Neighbors.
Mayor Brown made a brief speech
of welcome at the open air meeting at
the capltol last night. In which he said:
"Before Introducing Governor Mick
ey, who will extend the greetings of
the state, Mr. Bryan, I, as mayor, wel
come you home; not as a statesman,
not as a Democrat, but as that dear
est to us all, our beloved neighbor.”
Governor Mickey Raid:
"We aro glad, Mr. Bryan, that you
have a homo In our midst. We are
glad that you are an Illustrious exam
ple of what the head of an American
home should be. We are glad that
Providence has spared the life and
health of yourself and family In your
arduous travels and that we can once
more look Into your face and listen
to the greetings of your kindly voice.
Not only the city of Lincoln, but the
entire commonwealth shares In the fe
licity of this occasion and extends to
you a cordial, sincere welcome back to
your own. You have brought unstint
ed honor to us. You have given fnme
to your city and state In distant lands,

Waahlngton, Sept. 8.—Senator John
W. Daniel, of Virginia, the man who
led the Bryan . forces successfully
ngnlnat David B. Hill In the Chicago
convention of 1808, Id In Washington.
When hta attention waa called to Mr.
Bryan's atatement that he had not aeen
the name of any Southern .Democrat
who dlaapproved of hla government
ownefahlp views, Senator Darflel said:
”1 heard every word of the powerful
speech and agreed to 00 per cent of It.
I regretted the declaration In favor of
government ownership of trunk line
railways and state ownership of state
lines. Our experience In Virginia In
the matter of state participation wan
so disastrous and so burdensome to our
tax-payers that we have Just emerged
from the financial troubles brought
upon us, and our constitution, by gen
eral assent, hss a clause which forbid,
county or state subscriptions to rail
road building.
"What may come to pass In the fu
ture no man may now ifcad, but X do
not believe the people of this country,
nor the Democratic party, favor the
government ownership of railroads. Tho
Democratic party must get together If
It expects to lead the country, and
there Is abundance of room, In the con
current opinion of all Democrats for a
broad and deep basis upon which suc
cess can be attained. On all new Ideals
and In all untried schemes we should
go slowly and not attempt to make
them the creeds of a party's faith un
til they have first demonstrated them
selves really for the public good.
"Our people South have Just gotten
through a revolutionary epoch, and are
settled In that serenity of mind from
which naturally flows the best cogita
tion. They ure not fire-eaters, nor agi
tators, and If I know their mood right,
It Is the mood of conservatism, which
might be expected from their diversi
fied experiences, through some times
turbulent and some times complicated
conditions. Their mood Inspires cau
tion, prudence and deliberation, ami
conjures agalnat hasty opinions or ac
tion.
'Imperial governments can better
handle such government ownership
schemes than a republic, and such a
scheme might succeed in a compact
empire when It would fall In a republic,
and especially In so vast and widely
diversified a republic as our own."
