Bryan returned to Lincoln yesterday afternoon, and was last night tendered n reception at the Oliver theater by tho Woman's Bimetallic League. The luitisp was crowded, and Colonel Bryan ri'iclved an ovation. He was Intro duced by Oovornor Hnlcomb, who for mally welcomed him home and compli mented him for his patriotism in cn- stliiK In the army. After thanking his neighbors for their cordial welcome and complimenting; the members of his regiment and Colo nel Vlfquln, In whose charge he left them, he Justified his resignation as follows: 'I had five months of peace in the army and resigned in order to tako a cart In a light. I am as much In terested In the people of the United States as I am in the people of Cuba and unless I am mistaken In Judging we are called upon to meet more Im portant problems In the United States Just now than will confront our army in Cuba. "Some of these problems were under discussion before hostilities began; others have been thrust upon us as a result of the war. Let me Improve this, my tlrst opportunity, to assure you that my zeal for the reforms ad vocated a few months ago has not In the least abated. "The American people have not ao cepted the pold standnrd as final. It has wrought more Injustice In our country durlnc the last 25 years than Spain has wrought In all her colonies and opposition to It will grow until the gold and silver coinage of the con stitution Is fully restored. The trusts which now flourish In defiance of law are more merciless than Weylor was, and the new trust the paper money trust, which Is sepkine; to obtain con trol of all the paper money of the na tion Is a greater menace to the coun try's welfare than any foreign foe. "There ure. however, two new ques tions which demand Immediate atten tion, because congress Is asked to act upon them at once. The president rec ommends that the regular army be permanently Increased to 100,000 men. This question muBt be met now or not ut all." Taking1 up the subject of Imperialism Mr. Bryan said that the president has misinterpreted the sentiment of the people. They are opposed to giving the Philippine Islands back to Spain, but they have not as yet declared In favor of embarking; upon a colonial policy. So great a change, he said, could not be undertaken without more Investiga tion and deliberation than tho people had yet given the subject. Hefeirlng to President McKlnlcy's Inquiry: "Who will haul down the flag?" he said: "The Hag1 Is a national emblem and Is obedient to the national will. Jt va made for the people, not the peo ple for the flag. When the American people want the flag raised they raise It: when they want It hauled down they haul It down. The flan was raised upon V aimutun snlt (luring the war of 1812, anu 11 was named down when peace was restored. The ling was planted Upon Ctutpullepec during the war with Mexico, and It was hauled down when the war was over. Tho morning naners announce that General Lee ordered the flag1 hauled. down In Cuba yesterday, because It was raised too soon. The flag will be raised in Cuba again on the tlrst of January, but the president de clares In his message that It will be hauled down as soon as a stable gov ernment Is established. Who will deny to the people the right to haul tho flag down tn the Philippines, If they so de sire, when a stable government Is es tablished there? "Our flag stands for an Indissoluble union of indi'sti ri i llile states. Kwry state l represented by a star, and every territory sees In the constitution p. star of hope that It will some day tnke Its place In the constellation. What Is there In the Hag to awaken the xtml or reflect the aspirations of vassal colonies which are too good to be cast away, but not good enough to be admitted to the sisterhood of states? "Shall we keep the Philippines and amend our flag? 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 yel low, which In 1690 was the badge of gold and greed, and paint Suttim and Ins rings t-i suggest a carpet bag gov ernment with Its schemes of spoliation? 81: .vl vp adorn ur fi..i; with a milky wily composed of a multitude of minor stars representing remote and Insig nificant dependencies? No, a thousand times better to haul down the Stars and Stripes and substitute the flat: of an Independent republic than to sur render the doctrines that give glory to 'Old Glory.' The mission of that flag Is to float, not over a conglomeration of commonwealths, but over 'the land of the free and the home ot the brave.'
