He practiced law alt Jack- lonville, 111., from 18 8 3 to 18 87, since phich time he has practiced his prof ession at Lincoln, .Neb., where he has made his home. : He was a member of Congress from lie Lincoln (Neb.) district from 1891 ol895. In 1893 Mr. Bryan received be Democratic vote for the United States Senatorshlp, and in 1894 he pas nominated in the Nebraska State Democratic Convention for.U. S Sen- fetor, but was defeated" by the Hon. ohn M. Thurston.- r ; ' ;vr During' 1894 to 1896 Mr. Bryan kas editor of the Omaha World-Her- In 1896 he was a delegate to the National Democratic Convention, at hicago ; he wrote! the "silver plank" n the platform, and after making a notable and stirring speech , he was nominated for the Presidency. Dur- ng the. campaign h - traveled over 8,000 miles, and , made . speeches at tlmost every stopping place ; he re- reived 176 electoral . votes against J 71 for the late William McKinley. , T t OfT O T 1nA4....J VinoAl iu o a I -o ii tJ iwiui cu uu uiiuciai' sm, and in May, 1898, he raised and brganized the Third Regiment Ne braska Volunteers, infantry, for ser- Ivice in the Spanish-American War, land became colonel of the regiment. - In 190 4ie was again nominated for President on the Democratic tick- ;et, and also received, the endorsement of the Populist - and Silver Republi can conventions. Mr. Bryan made another active canvass, but was again defeated, this time receiving in the electoral college 155 votes as against 293 for Mr. McKinley. " Soon, after his last Presidential de feat Mr. Bryan established The Com moner, a weekly political journal, in which he has keptv. the public posted as to his views on political subjects. From this Journal, lectures and books, "The First Battle," and "Un der Other Flags," and from his nu merous - special articles written for other magazines and newspapers, Mr. Bryan has amassed a comrortaoie competency. ?-" ; Within the past two years Mr. Bryan' has made a tour pf the -world.

"Fairview," the ; Bryans carl their place .that covers : two hundred; acres Land around there is worth from $200 td $500 an. acre. So it can be figured that Mr. Bryan Is comfortably well-to-do. ; Those . that, have less might call him a rich man. What he has, he has made from his lectures and his books and VfrOm The Com moner published In a plain country newspaper office in Lincoln. Before the Bryans had as njuch as they have now, they lived in a little frame house on a muddy street in Lincoln, on his country" lawyer's in come of $1809 a year. ,You Just nat urally speak of them as the Bryans, f for through all Of the man's, career, the woman has kept step at his side. "We always do everything together, my wife and I," he says with a pride that has never waned. Long ago, just after their marriage, she studied J law and was admitted to tne Dar. one did it not to practice :law, but to be able "to help WilLn She has read her way through all the political eccjnomy that he teaches. ' V ' ! ' ' ' There Is neither pomp nor cere monial at Falrview. By. - 7 o'clock every morning life is -astir therev Hajf-past 7 is the breakfast hour The beverages except for herself. Eachv member of the household orders .ap-; propriate dishes demanded by ;r the morning appetite. J- G uests do ' the same.; :6'" '.prV' Mr. Bryan - seldom takes a walk.' around the estate before breakfast. A cold bath is indulged in as soon as he rises. Then he hastily prepares his toilet and descends to thex base ment1 dining room for a hearty break-, fast of eggs, usually scrambled, beef steak or; broiled chicken,- hot corn cakes and milk,: fresh ' from his own dairy. .'After this he plunges into the , work of the day. ' He receives his mail by rural free .delivery. He goes 1 over the first batch before Mrs. Bryan -has put her household affairs In shape to join him in his workroom. Then he begins dictating to her. Mr. Bryan is a rapid talker, but his wife, al though knowing none of the estab- . lished stenographic systems, Is able to keep pace with his dictation. She uses a method of abbreviations of her own contrivance. He also dictates to her most of his editorials for The Commoner. .' Mrs. Bryan understands the political situation in detail almost as well-as her husband. For years she has been traveling with him, meeting the men, who confer with him and taking part in the , discussions. She now has a most capable private secretary and handles a heavier cor respondence than Mr. Bryan. She re ceives herself a great many letters and all get answers. She also an swers a great many letters of her husband's. yHe indicates the answers and she dictates the replies. His editorials in The Commoner and .much of his, other literary work is dictated to her, and she" writes on the -typewriter instead of taking notes. She is a capable and experienced writer, and those who are familiar with this . class' of 'work can under stand the advantage of having . an amanuensis who is always ready with a word," a phrase or an idea; In this respect the1 two are in perfect sympa thy and together perform an incred- ible amount of work without apparent fatigue.

Two interesting personages of the Bryan household are the grandchil dren, Ruth and Bryan; Leavitt, aged four and three. They are the chil dren of Homer and Ruth Bryan . Leavitt. '" , Mr. Bryan has no office in the shop in v Lincoln where The Commoner is published, but occasionally he drops in to see how the paper is getting along. This is a typical country news paper office. It smells of benzine and printer's ink. Old piles of exchanges are in the corner, and the man who gets a chair with a whole bottom in it is fortunate, y Cartoons and prints decorate the walls, and scraps of re print are pasted here and there. The files ;feed on the flour paste and the inkwells : clog ( up with , ants. ,The smoking pipes of the printers are older than the town and stronger than the-uplift movement in the office of a reform magazine. -: - It is .interesting ;to note that this is the headquarters of the whole Bryan movement.;. .There ' are no smart head 'clerks! and liveried mes senger boys. - ' It is saidHhat The Commoner pays Its I editor ab out $200 a month and others "get a good living." It is a fairly prosperous property, but , no strain is made to pile; up big profits. That : Is immediately plain to any experienced ; newspaper y man who watch'es the way of doing things. Mr.' Bryan is apparently content to have it disseminate h-is doctrines ; to pay its. own way and support Its workers, and give fair returns. - AFTFR THE P' 1 . 1 1 Silt' wiiwi! ir "-r" ' - 1 .

I The only explanation that 'he trust makes as i to why the price : of" beef should be increased at a season when the demand' is smaller .than at any other tim-s of the year; is that the high price of ' corn' has 'made it necessary. It has been asserted that-in the "fat tening of what is known in the trade as "finished beef" larg? quantities of corn' are required as fodder," and that when the .price of corn, goes up. the price of Cbeef must' advance "corre spondlngly r . ' :. J-'Vp 'rA It is asserted without qualification by. old-time, butchers in the Washing ton Market that there has not been a carcass-of a corn-fed bullock in the niarket for twenty years or more and that the meat of corn-fed cattle Is not. sold for general consumption, for the reason that -when the. price of corn is high the owner can make. a greater profit by J selling it in the grain mar ket instead of feeding it to stock. ; There is not a' retail, butcher Who is able to explain Vvfhy ;he has had to pay more for. his beef -and mutton and pork and charge his : customers more. All he knows is that the price is; increased; Tbe i meat is ready for his inspection, and - purchase and he can take it -or leave it. The . nearest to an explanation " of the' increase has been the price' of corn, and . next, to that the shortage in supply. ' Increase Instead of Shortage. - ' ; The organ ! of the Meat Trust in New . York does not b ear out .'the shortage theory.

As the demand for the choicest cutif of beef falls off the price of the cheaper parts is i increased by ; the butcher so that he . can comer some where 'near getting even - with the wholesaler. , In the populous east side, where a half cent in the price of mea't means much, the cut for which there Is the greatest demand is the brisket, which is divested of its bone before it is sold to the customer. One year ago the brisket was sold at from thirteen to fourteen cents a pound. This week the lowest, price was twen ty cents. Corned beef that sold -for sixteen and fifteen, cents a pound in June, 1907,: now sells for twenty cents. Soup meat has gone; up to twelve cents a pound on the east side and, fourteen - and fifteen cents a pound in Jefferson Market, an ; in crease "greater in proportion than for any other meat. Last January the ' price of soup meat was from ten to twelve cents a pound, and a year ago the highest price for the best quality was ten cents. . TEXAS. PRICES ARE HIGHEST IN YEARS. Influx 'of Population end Occupation Responsible. of Land Chiefly - Fort Worth, -Texas. The , present prices of cattle on the hoof in Texas the highest in twenty yearsare due principally to the Influx of mill ion settlers in the past two years, the occupation of ranch lands' and the sale of cattle to clear off the big pas tures. ; ' ' -- o" 1 Best meal and grass fed steers now sell on the hoof at Fort Worth, from $5.75 to $6 a hundred pounds; corn fed, steers sold last week at $7.25 and grass-fed steers have sold here ) this spring at $6.75, the highest price ever paid in the history of Texas cat tle Talsing. - ' , ' ' '! v-:.?

In two years the price of cows on the hoof here has advanced practically two cents a pound. - - - .. Last year's receipts of 1 cattle at FortWorth exceeded 1,000,000, the majority .calves : and heifers, .which presages a shortage for probably, two years to come.

Control of the sex of infants Is a practical proposi tion, according; to Dr. Frank Kraft, secretary of the American Institute of Homeopathy." Dr.' Kraft says he has discovered no new principle, 'but has shown the practical application of one originating with the evolution theory. The principle he; says; is based on the law ofthe survival of the fittest.- Dr.' Kraft; makes these declarations in a. book 3ust off the pressir,'., It is well known to scientists, as serts the author,, that savage races and races which exist where the con ditions of life arehardest produce a preponderance of male children. From this fact he deduces that nature rec ognizes In the female the .weaker sex. Thus, 'he says, in times of plenty fe males' are : likely, to : predominate. Some thinkers on the subject even go so far as to assert that hard times produce male" children because ; the struggle for life is harder. - ; r , : ' d Omaha Drinks Mud--Con. ; Omaha, ' Neb.
