Col. *■ j Bivau returned to Lin coln yesterday afternoon and vaß last nitht tendered a ncep ,jon at t) e Oliver theater by tb . w,i n’' Bl metallic League. 'Hit-i.o se was crowded and tol.Ki'a leceived an ovation. He was introduced by Gov. Hold mb, who formally wel comed him home and compli niert°d him for his patriotism 'in tnlisting in the army. After thanking his neighbor* :for their cordial welcome and ‘complimenting the menders of Lis ng rm nt and Cel. Visquai", in whose < hai ehe left then ,he -justified his resignation as fol lows : “I had five months of peace in the army and resigned in order to take a part in a tight. 1 am as much interested in the people of the United States as I im i» the people of Cuba, and unless I am mistaken in judg ing, we are called upon to meet nisre important problems in th® United States just now than will confront our army in Cuba. “Some of these pt oblems were under discussion before hostili ties began ; others have been Jhrust upon us as a result of the war. Let me improve this, my first opportnaity to assure you that my zeal for the reforms ad vocated a few months ago has not in the least abated. Vital questions cannot be killed or buried, and we were dealing with vital questic ns when the call to arms resounded through the lai.d. ‘The American people have not accepted ths gold standard as final.

The president recommends that the regular army be perman ently increased to 100,000 men. Ibis question must be met now or not at all.” laking up the subject ®f im perialism, Mr. Bryan said that the president has misinterpreted the sentiment of the people. They are opposed to giving the Philippines back to Spain, bat they have not as yet declared in favor of embarking upoa a co lonial policy. So great a change, he said, could not bo undertaken without more investigation aad deliberation than the people had yet given to the subject. The prineipal part of Mr. Bryan’s speech was devoted to the Phil ippine question. In this connection he referred j to President, McKinley’s inquiry, ‘‘Who will haul down the flag? ’ and replied : “Th® lag is a national em blem, and is obedient to the na tional will. It was made for the people, net the people for the lag. When the American people wart the flag raised they raise it; when they want it hauled down they haul it down. The flag was raised upon Canadian soil dur ing the war of 1112 and it was hauled down when peace was restored. ‘‘The lag was planned upon Chapultepec during the war with Mexico and it was hauled down when the war was over. I he moraing papers announced that Gen. Lie ordered the flag hauled down in Cuba yesterday because it was raised too soon. ‘‘The flag will be raised in Cuba again on the first of Jan uary, but the President declares in his message that it will be hauled down as soon as a sta ble government is established. Who will deny to the people the right te haul the flag down in the Philippines if they se desire, when a stable governm.nt is established there .* “Our flag stands for an indis soluble union of indestructable states. Every state is represent ed by a star and every territory sees in the constitution a star of hope that will some day take its place in the constellation. What is there in the flag to awaken the zeal or refleet the aspirations of vassal colonies which are to* good to be cast away, but not good eaaugh to be admitted to th® sisterhood of states? Shall w® keep the Phil ippines and amend our ting? Shall we add a new star—the blood star, Mars—to indicate that we have entered upon a career of conquest? Or shall we borrow the yellow, which in 1896 was the badge of gold and greed, and paint Saturn and hi. rings, to suggest a earpet-bag government with its schemes of spoliation? Or shall we adorn our flag with a milky way com posed os a multitude of «mor stars representing remote and insignificant dependencies/ «No- a thoweand time better toh.ul’dow. stripe. .»d .US.IIIUW »' a„ udepod.M republic th«u 10 surrender lhe doctrine. gir. glory to‘Old Gl.r»- the «.g our fetor. •» £ year. that “• * aa * • “ Hag es a reunited country today, le t itbe the Hag efour nattonin the years that are to come.
