The Omaha Bee was established in 1871 by Edward Rosewater, who made it one of the most influential Republican journals in the West. The World-Herald, founded in 1865 by George L. Miller, was edited by William Jennings Bryan from 1894 to 1896.
"The reader's interest is stirred to its very depths." Omaha World-Herald. "Many strong situations and some delicate ones." San Francisco Chronicle. "The Ralph Connor of Kansas." Brooklyn Eagle. "Most clever, stirring and original." Birmingham News. "A tale of exalted ideals." Denver Times.
"It represents dreams of artistic magnificence." Buffalo Evening News. "The secret of his power is the same God-given secret that inspired Shakespeare and upheld Dickens." Philadelphia Sunday Dispatch. "It is the greatest story since Bunyan's 'Pilgrim's Progress." Grand Rapids Herald. "It is a classic in nature and spirit and rendering." Omaha World-Herald.
Among the educational institutions are a state school for the deaf; the medical department and orthopedic branch of the University of Nebraska; a Presbyterian Theological Seminary; and Creighton University under Jesuit control. The principal newspapers are the Omaha Bee, World-Herald and the News.
In 1894 a tidal wave of Republicanism destroyed Bryan's chances of being elected United States Senator, a consummation for which he had been laboring on the stump and, for a brief period, as editor of the Omaha World-Herald. He continued, however, to urge the silver cause in preparation for the presidential campaign of 1896.
