MAN BINES WITH FRIENDS. Events 'Must Determine Whether He Shall Run Again- A SPEECH AT THE BANQUET A Iherence to the Principle* of the -Democratic Lsadar Expressed In Every Speech Made*. Lincoln. Neb., Dec. 26. —The one sentiment which animated the 500 democrats who surrounded the banquet board of the Jeffersonian Club at the Lincoln Hotel tonight was loyalty to Mr. Bryan. It ex pressed itself in every speech made .v the dozen or more who respond ed to toasts and reached its climax when J. W. Kerns, late democratic candidate for governor of Indiana, declared in clarion tones: “Speaking for the democracy of Indiana, and, I believe,for the rank and file of the democracy every where, I want to say to all men who are interesting themselves in party organization or reorganiza tion that any attempt in any quar ter at any time to belittle the splen did and heroic service rendered by that magnificent leader and grand t.ibuue of the people, William Jen nings Bryn, in the campaigns of 1896 aud 1900 or to cast stigma or reproach upon him in any degree, however slight, will meet with quick and stern rebuke from the pillions of democrats who followed his banner' in those memorable con lests. Wiiiie the rank and file of the great democratic party has Honored other leaders, it loves William J. Bryan and will tolerate SlO action which contemplates his humiliation Or looks to his retire ment from the field of active pol itics.” STRUCK THK KISYNOTIv. Mr. Kerns’ speech struck the keynote of gathering. He was accorded a wild ovation at its close, ,-.nd his direct thrusts at ex-Pres ident Cleveland twice brought the banqueters up standing. Mr. Bryan was the last speaker on the long list. His reception was even more cordial than at pre vious gatherings of the kind in Ne braska. and his remarks were punc tuated by strong outbursts of af ectionate demonstration, not con fined alone to flag-swinging and cheering. MR. BRYAN’S SPEECH. He spoke in part as follows: “At this banquet, surrounded by neighbors who have been my po litical friends for ten years, I may be pardoned for saying a word of i personal nature. Five times you have voted for me for public office —twice for congress, once for the* United State? senate and twice for the presidency —and no candidate ever received more loyal support than yon have given. “Whether I shall ever be a can didate for office again is a question which must be determined by events. No one can speak with certainty of the future, for one’s destiny is not known until his life’s work is complete. I shall be content if it ;s my lot to aid in the triumph of Sorofuia THE OFFSPRING OF HEREDITARY BLOOD TAB NT, Scrofula is but a modified form of Blood Poison and Consumption.

Hathaway A Cos., T2H South Broad Street, Atlanta, Oa MENTION THIS PA PICK WHEN WKlffEg, principles while others enjoy the honor* and bear the responsibili ties of office, * '‘The holding of public position should be an incident and not the; aim of the citizens; it should be hot an end, but the means for the ac complishment of a purpose. “The presidency seemed desir able because it would have enabled me to gi\e effective aid to certain reforms which I believe to be ne cessary to the public welfare, but even a second defeat does not les sen my interest in those reforms, and time may prove that my work is to advocate rather than to ex ecute. ‘‘The Commoner will give me an opportunity to participate in public discussions and I am sure that an editorial position will fur nish as much intellectual enjoy ment as I could have found in the white house and in addition thereto give me more time for home pleas ures. PRINCIPLES STILL LIVE. “The principles lor which we contended in the last campaign still live, and we who believe in them must continue to fight for. them. An election does not change principles, it only determines what principles shall be, for the time be ing, applied. “The believers in tariff reform did not abandon their faith when the high t iriff doctrine was in dorsed at the polls, neither did pro tectionists when their cause suf fered loss. The advocates of the gold standard continued the fight for monometalism for twenty-five years in spite of the platform decla rations of all parties in favor of a double standard. Shall we who believe in bimetallism lose courage because our opponents have pro fited by an increased volume of money, thus admitting the econo mic principle for which we have been contending? “The defenders of trusts did not lose heart when all parties de nounced combinations in restraint of trade. Shall we give up the fight because monopoly has tri umphed by stealth? “Shall we now advocate an im perial policy because our oppo nents have won a victory by deny ing that they are imperialists? A olonial system involves a sur eft der of our theory of government and the people will understand this as soon as the system is put into operation. If we were to con sult our immediate convenience and comfort we would never op pose wrong of any kind, for all warfare involves a temporary sac rifice, but this is our government and must be transmitted unim paired to posterity. We have no choice, theretore, but to stand steadfast, come what may. SHALL ULTIMATELY WIN. “If we are successful in revers ing present tendencies and in car rying the government back to its old foundations we shall rejoice in the victory and profit by the re forms secured. I am confident that we shall ultimately win, but j if the trend toward plutocracy can ! not be checked it is still better I that we should be defeated in a ! righteous undertaking than that vve should join hands with those who are ignoring the inalienable rights of man.” Mr. Kern’s speech was principal ly directed toward Mr. Cleveland. “The democratic party,” he said •‘is today holding no parley with deserters. Its eais are closed against words of advice gratuitous ly offer and bv alleged democrats,who voted ti.e republican ticket, or by those in the great struggle of 1900 who withheld both vote and voice Irom the cause of the people, and could see in that mighty contest only a painful and distressing sit uation.’ ” “During the next four years the | best thought and most conscien tious efforts of democratic >eader ship should be exerted to bring about haimony within our ranks and a perfect union of all the forces opposed ,to the revolutionary scheme of the party in power.” He spoke in praise of Olney.Hill, Cock ran, John Dewitt Warner, Pattison, McClure, Gorman, Wat terson and other gold democrats for their course in the late cam paign and “their patriotic protests against the advance of the hosts of imperialism. “It is in no spirit of bitterness, however, I add that there were a few men, once p ominent in demo cratic ranks, who, in the midst of all the stormy scenes of this mighty contest, remained unmoved and silent, except that now and then they took occasion to fhrnish aid and comfort to the enemy by mak ing public denial that they were in sympathy with the cause of the people or to express their regrets that such ‘painful and distressing’ issues were before the people. For the sake of the future welfare of the party I shall not attempt any harsh criticism of the course of these gentlemen, but I will not fqfbcAr paying here and every where that they peed not be sur prised if spy gratuitous counsel which they may seek to thrust upon the millions of loyal demo crats who fought the good and kept the faith shall fall upon reluctant ears,” THE SAME RANK AND FILE. The speaker asserted that the rank and file of the party* in 1900 w'as the same rank and file voting 1 for bimetallism and tariff reform in 1884, 1888 and 1892, “It is the rank and file,’’ he con tinued, “which, tired of the dom ination of a few men, in 1896 lit erally took possession of the demo cratic party and made it in every sense a party of the people. This rank and file, ever steadfast, asks no ‘chance’ save the chance to vote its sentiments and to follow demo cratic leadership, which never re gards a republican victory as ne cessary to the establishment of true democratic principles.” David Overmever, of Kansas, reiterated these sentiments. He said all talk of reorganization was idle; although twice defeated un der his leadership the party was today as loyal to him as though victory had twice crowned him. Ladies’ Home Journal- A glimpse of the luxury with which rich Americans surround themselves is given in the January issue of The Ladies’ Home Jour nal, under the title “Housekeep ing in a Millionaire’s Family.” If this issue of the Journal is a fair sample of what that popular maga zine intends to give its readers in the new century its already wide field of usefulness will be greatly enhanced. One of the striking features of the January Journal, “The Baltimore Belle Who Made the Most Brilliant Match of Any Girl in America,” recalls the fact that a Yankee “Oueen” once sat on a Vice-Regal throne in Ireland. There is a little play for amateurs, “The ‘Little Women’ Play,” adap ted from Miss Alcott’s story. Elizabeth Stuart Phelps brings more humor into the domestic com plications of “The Successors of Mary the F'irst.” Charles Major tells a thrilling “Blue River Bear Story,” and Clifford Howard con tributes another chapter of “The Story of a Young Man.” “A Win ter Service at Church,” by W. L. j Tavlor, and A. B. Frost’s “Town i Meeting” are page pictorial feat ures that will be received with great favor. Ivdward Bok has an | article on “The Two Centuries and This Magazine,” giving a short review of the history of the Jour nal.
