MADISON, Wis.. Oct l5.-&nator
Hanna begra.n his speech-making: tour or
the Northwest toSay by making eIx
speeches In Wisconsin, some of them ot
considerable length. Tho principal ad
dresses of the day were made at "Wauke
sha, '-where the Hpeclal train carrying Sen
ators Hanna and Frye and other Repub
lican leaders was held for over an hour,
nd at Madison. At each of these, places
enator Hanna, made two addresses;
Short speeches were also made at Racine
Junction and Racine. Senator Hanna was
overywhere greeted by Immense crowds,
his reception at Madison being particu
larly enthusiastic In his speeches today
Senator Hanna laid particular stress upon
the trusts and the attitude of the Dem
ocratic party in regard to the tariff.
"There are no monopolies In this coun
try," said he, "except those which are
protected by a patent issued by the Gov
ernment." At Racine.
MILWAUKEE, Wis., Oct 15. The spe
cial train bearing Senators Hanna and
Frye and other Republican 'notables made
Its first stop at Racine Junction, Wis.,
where a large crowd, composed principal
ly of workingmen from near-by shops,
was waiting. Senator Hanna spoke
briefly, saying in part:
"You have heard a good deal about the
different Issues in this campaign. There
are only three weeks left, and we have
.not time to talk about anything but the
Issue that Interests you and me. And
that issue Is our present conditions and J
.ue uonunuauon 01 tnem. xne iuu dlnner
pail Is the best argument I know of."
A voice How about the coal mines?
"The coal mines are all right," said
the Senator.
A voice How about the strike?
The strike will be settled this week,"
replied Mr. Hanna.
-"All wind,' a voice shouted.
"The only things I know of that have
a superfluity of -wind are Bryan Demo
crats," rejoined the Senator. "I want to
ask this audience of workingmen what
W. J. Bryan has ever done for the work
ing people of this country."
A voice Nothing.
"There is not a man here but who
Tcnows that William McKinley has been
the best "friend of the working people of
any man this country has ever produced."
At Racine another large crowd greeted
the Republican National chairman de
manding a speech, and Senator Hanna
complied in a few words, 'covering sub
stantially the same ground as covered In
his speech at the Junction.
Allis, a suburb of Milwaukee, was the
next stop. Here the train was surround
ed by workingmen from the rolling mills
and other near-by manufactories. Mr.
Hanna spoke briefly, saying it gave him
extreme pleasure and gratification to
meet so many persons. He said he was
not connected with the speakers' bureau
when ho came out to meet the people
face to face: that he belonged to tho ex
ecutive department of the Republican
National Committee, and that, he wished
to tell Republicans and Democrats alike
that everything was coming out "all right,
and 'that there would be four years, 10
years and more of prosperity, and ap
pealed to all to enter the band wagon.
He wanted to show the people oh this
trip, ha said, that he was not, as" the
papers caricatured him, with horns.
At WankcRba.
MADISON, Wis., Oct. 16. The first ex
tended stop of the -day was made at
Waukesha. Wis., where elaborate prep
arations had been made for the recep
tion of the Senator. Escorted by a re
ception committee, which met the special
train at Milwaukee, Senator Hanna and
, party, on arriving at Waukesha wert
driven through the decorated streets of
the city to the Casino, near one of the
springs. The building was packed to the
doors some time before the party arrived.
The appearance of Senators Hanna. and
.Frye was the signal for applause, which
lasted for several moments Senator
Frye was Introduced, and spoke at some
length.
When Senator Hanna was Introduced
Instantly some one asked If there was
anything the matter "with Hanna, and the
audience roared that be was all right.
Senator Hanna bowed and waved his
handkerchief to a crowd of -young ladles
on -the stage decorated to represent the
different states of -the Union, and when
quiet had been .restored, .spoke in part as
.follows:
"t onsiaef the issues and results ot
this campaign second in. importance to
,rrone since the .foundation of our Govern
ment: jcprtajnly nope since the xounda
tion cfl&ERepublican- party. I consider
It of such importance because it comes
down, to a pure business proposition a
proposition in which is involved our well
being, the comfort and happiness of our
families, the maintenance of a policy in
the administration of our Government
which -means a continuance of this grand
development of this great Nation: a con
tinuation of prosperity which brings hap
piness to every fireside and wealth and
greatness to the Nation. I say It is a
business proposition because in the great
widening and spreading of our influence
and development the United States of
America has taken a front rank; its In
fluence has spread beyond the borders of
our country, and the wealth that Is being
gathered to our shores Is the result of
our industry and a tribute to the intelli
gence of our people."
Mr. Hanna then denounced Mr. Bryan
for what he termed his "attempt to array
class against class, and then took up
the trust question, saying:
"The Constitution does not reach them
all, or the laws upon the statute books
of the United States. The Sherman act,
passed by a Republican Congress, has
wiped out all the trusts that can be
reached under the Constitution, and when
I say trusts, I mean the combinations of
capital whose investments are In the
hands of stockholders, but whose stock
holders have no right to vote, the stock
being simply voted by tho trustees, as
the sugar trust was, as the Iron Pipe
Company waa and as the Trans-Missouri
Traffic Association was. All of
these were wiped out by the Sherman
act and the Supreme Court of the United
States."
Mr. Hanna then predicted that If, In
order to destroy trusts, the protective
tariff was removed, general business dis
aster would follow, and concluded as fol
lows: "Do we want to give notice to the
great army of workingmen in this coun
try that, In deference to theory, to satlf fy
the ambitions of one man, we are going
to destroy their hopes for the future?
It comes down to that, my friends; that
Is exactly what it means. In the name
of all that is good and holy: in the name
of the men, women and children who have
come to us from foreign shores to better
their condition, let us stand together,
maintaining tho wages of the American
workingman, continuing to -build up these
great Industries, availing ourselves of
these great reservoirs of natural wealth
that God has given us and go forward,
brushing from our paths all demagogues
&nd ambitious men by telling them that
wo know our business and are going to
attend to It."
After leaving. the. Casino. Mr. Hanna
was driven to theCity Park, where be
addressed a large out-door meeting, fol
lowing the lines pi his previous speech.
The .party was then driven to the train,
which at once left Iot Madison.
At Madison.
MADISON, Wis., Oct. 16. Senator
Hanna's special train reached Madison
shortly before 6 o'clock. Here two
speeches were scheduled for the evening,
one at assembly hall in the state capltol.
the other In the Immense University Hall.
Governor Scofield and other state of
ficials escorted Senator Hanna and party
to the Park Hotel. At 8 P. M. Senator
Hanna proceeded to the assembly hall,
where he spoke In part aa follows:
"The paramount Issue is what Is for
tho best Interests of our people, each
Individual and the whole country. . My
life has been spent as a business man.
I am in public life because I felt It wa3
my duty. I left because I thought that
unless a change was effected In this coun
try, we would go down hill even more
rapidly than we had been going. Nearly
all our great industries were paralyzed.
Every one seemed'to have lost confidence
In the future, and it wanted some man
whose character, whose ability, whose In
tegrity of purpose, whoso patriotism
would gather around him the support of
all public-spirited American citizens to
save this country from commercial ruin.
Such a man was William McKinley. He
waa nominated and elected, and since
th'en this Republic has passed through
four years second In Importance to none
of the four years preceding. He has
served his country and placed It in the
front rank of nations, commanding the
respect of all nations, having risen from
a debtor to a creditor nation.
"In order to secure a continuation of
these things we must ask the people to
have confidence in the future. Mr. Bryan
would bring about a condition of an
archism and socialism. Ho would bring
strikes and riot and bloodshed to accom
plish his purpose, but the people see
through his designs, and Ihave no fear
of the result of the election."
The Senator was then driven to the
-university gymnasium. At this meeting
Senator Frye was the principal speaker,
his speech being along the same lines as
that at Waukesha. It was quite .late
when Senator Hanna reached the build
ing, but when he finally appeared the
audience applauded him for several min
utes, the University of Wisconsin yell,
with variations complimentary to the Na
tional chairman, being given time and
again.
"r would like to have that glee club
along, with me on my tour," said Mr.
Hanna.
At the conclusion of his speech, Mr.
Hanna was driven to the station, and de
parted for Winona, Minn.
HILL IX ILLINOIS.
Sprlngrncld's Big? Democratic Demon
stration. SPRINGFIELD, 111., Oct 15.Wlth the
exception of Bryan day in 1SQS, when
the crowd and parades far exceeded any
thing before known in the city, the dem
onstration In this city today was the
greatest ever known here. The city was
lavishly decorated with bunting, and
probably 40,000 visitors were here. Two
thousand men marched in the parade of
Democratic Clubs.
Governor Hill arrived at 1. o'clock this
afternoon, and was met at the Wabash
station by a crowd of 50CO. His carriage
was driven through the line of marchers,'
which lined up on both sides of the
streets, amid wild enthusiasm. Among
the reception committee were John Mayo
Palmer, of Chicago, and XJewis J. Palmer,
of Springfield, sons ot the late 'John M.
Palmer. At 2:30 P. M. Governor Hill
was escorted to the east side of the State
house grounds, where he addressed an
audience of 15,000 people. He concluded
with an eulogy of Bryan and declared
that New York and Indiana would return"
to the Democratic ranks this year, elect
ing Mr. Bryan. Tonight a parade with
30CK) members of clubs from several sec
tions marched through the principal
streets and were reviewed by Governor
Hill from a stand in the Courthouse
square.
Jones on Payne's Forecast.
CHICAGO, Oct. 15. Senator James K.
Jones, chairman of the Democratic Na
tional Committee, commented today on
Vice-chairman Paine's election forecast
as follows:
"His claim that California, Connecticut,
Indiana, Illinois, Kansas. Minnesota, New
fork. New Jersey, North Dakota, Ohio,
South Dakota, West "Virginia, Wisconsin,
Wyoming and several other states would
go for McKinley In the coming election
is absurd. And any intelligent man who
knows anything about the situation Is
bound to know that. He claims even
chances for Delaware, Kentucky. Mary
land, Nebraska, Nevada and Utah. I
only wonder ho did not Include Texas,
Arkansas, Georgia and Mississippi also
In his list Montana Is as certainly a
Republican state as some of the others
on his list, and Montana will go for
Bryan by 20,000 to 30,000 majority. I can
not believe that Mr. Payne '13 sincere."
The Prohibition Train.

Democratic state or tho Democratic Na

later In the day he made a brief .speech
at Nlles, the President's native city. At
night he spoke at Cleveland, Mr. Hanna's
home. The stops at Canton and Mies
were incidental, and the crowds were
small at both places. The only important
day meetings were those of New Phila
delphia and Toungstown. At New Phila
delphia there was a big attendance, and
the meeting waa an enthusiastic one.
There were two meetings at Toungstown,
one in the public square and the other at
the Opera-House,
A stop of 15 minutes waa made at Nlles.
Mr. Bryan did not leave the train at that
point, but reviewed the issues of the
campaign in a very brief manner to a
comparatively small number of people
who had congregated at the railroad sta
tion. Before entering upon his speech he
referred to the fact that that place was
Ultimately associated with the career of
his distinguished, -rival r Presidential
honors, saying: ,., , - v ,
"I understand that ftiis is tho birth
place of the President of - the United
States. Tou have the honor now of
being rthe birthplace of the President,
whether he'holdjf one "term ory two. He
cannot be born again and give you an
other chance. You had all you can have
out of it."
Mr. Bryan spoke twice in Toungstown,
first in the public square and then in the
Opera-House. His experience at the open
air meeting strikingly illustrated ' the fu
tility of getting together excessively
large crowds for a political meeting. In
the one important respect of attracting
on,r nsnnia tn RPft the National candi
date the meeting was an unsurpassed
triumph; in the otner respeci ui biviuki
people an opportunity to hear him it
wo n fnilur. and the success one way
was the cause of the failure the other.
The people had been coming into xne
city from Ohio and Pennsylvania all day,,
so that when Mr. Bryan arrived at 4:20
this afternoon all the principal streets,
were crowded and the square around the
speaker's stand was densely packed with
people struggling to get near the plat
form and to secure a glimpse ot th$ lion
of the occasion. There was- no effort to
create trouble, but tho natural hum of
thousands of yolces and the struggle for
places was such as almost to destroy
V.V. orrof nt the. soeenh. The stand, 'pro

mewspaper men on the stand were pin-
loneu SO ClOSe UIU.I uiej wum iiut iu
then 'to write," and those who were 20
feet away could not hear the speech.
Mr. Bryan himself had scarcely more
room than was necessary for him to
stand erect, and a squad of policemen
was necessary to pressrve tho space for
him. Those who were able to hear re
ceived the speech with frequent bursts
of flTvnimm and this was often taken up
by others far away from the range of
the sneaker s voice, so tnai it may ue
tne speaKer s voice, w mu.i. i. imj
said that the meeting was enthusiastic

even though most of thoso present failed
to hear what was saia.
After the outdoor meeting at Toungs-i
town closed Mr. Bryan was escorted to
tttie Opera-House, where he spoke to as
many people, most of them ladles, a3
could find accommodation In the build
ing. Both speeches were general re
views of the political situation. In tha
Opera-House speech he spoke of the im
portance of thu campaign, saying that
the contest was not more his than it
was that of other people who were con
cerned about the welfare of the Nation
at large. He referred to tho presence of
so many ladies, and, addressing himself
to them, said:
"I am glad to talk to an audience com
posed so largely of women, for certainly
In this contest the woman Is as much
Interested as the man. Is not the mother
Interested In her son? Is not the mother
Interested in making life worth something
for" her son? I wish that every mother
In this land could study the trust ques
tion and learn her own connection with
it. She finds out about It when she goes
to buy sugar and other articles controlled
by the trusts, and Is told that the trusts
have raised the prices. But to my mind
that is the least objection to the trust.
If the trusts raise prices, we can simply
buy less, but when a trust monopolizes
an Industry and closes the door of op
portunity against the young man, and
attempts to condemn a man to perpetual
clerkship under monopoly, and to servl
tud6 under agricultural monopoly, then
monopoly strikes a severer blow than
It does through the prices that it ex
torts.. "MotherB. what would you have your
sons do? Would you have your, boys go
onto the farm? Why, you -know the
farmer takes more chances than any
other nian, and has less influence on the
Government at least, he is less consid
ered by those who govern. Are you
going to have your boy go among the
laboring man and have but one ambl
tldn, and that to hava a full dtnner-pall,
and only to have that when the trust
will let him have It? Arc you willing to
let your son go Into the anthracite' coal

At Canton.
CANTON, O., Oct 15. Before the Bryan
train left Akron this morning Mayor
Jones, of Toledo, and ex-Attorney-Qen-eral
Monnett joined the party upon the
invitation of Mr. Bryan. It is under
stood that Mayor Jones will continue
with the Presidential candidate on his
New Tork tour.
The first stopping place was Cantonr
the home of the Nebraskan's rival for
the Presidency. A good crowd was: at the
station to meet Mr. Bryan. He was re
ceived with cheers and made a five-minute
speech. He said:
"Tou are so accustomed to seeing Pres-"
identlal candidates that another candidate
is no curiosity. I suppose some of you
In 1S96 voted for your home candidate as
a. mntfpr of lnrn.1 nrlde. but now VOU Can"
K5vv fhr Cfl.nton la tha home of a Preal-
r den:, and Jf the election goes our way it
will always De uie nome oj. an ux-prea- ,
dent, because that title 'ex' is one ot
those permanent titles that a man never
loses. If any oho Insists that a President
deserves, a second terni, y'ou( can reply
that one term Is enough If a President
does well, and too much where he -does
not do well. "
"Tou have (here In your city a cannon, I
believe, that was presented to you as a
trophy of the war. It was a custom in
earlier days for cannon to bear mottoes,
and your cannon has inscribed upon it
Mars Ultima Ratio Regitim,' which
means that war la the last reason of
kings'. Charles Sumner, In his oration on
the true character of nations,- delivered
at Boston July 4, 1844, referred to this .
motto, and said: Let It be no reason for
this Republic'
"I hope that you will not. merely from
tho possession of that cannon, be led to
believe that war is a thing to bo desired.
It ought to be further away from a re
public even than, from a monarchy, be
cause in a monarchy the government
rests upon force and has frequent occa
sion to resort to force. A king Js not
always restrained by those considerations
which would restrain the people or a re
public. In a country Uko this where jus-'
tlce Is the" rule between this government
and other governments, as well as be
tween the people, there ought to be less
necessity for' war. In fact, I believe
that If this Nation will stand upon Its
rights and be as careful to respect the
rights of other people as It Is to defend
its own, there would be little use for
war. If this Nation will obey the com
mandment, 'Thou shalt not steal,' It will
have little difficulty in enforcing that
commandment In those places where this
Nation is a protector.
"The American idea of a protectorate
is different from the European idea. Un
der a European protectorat6 the protector
ftlunders the nrotected. According to our
thoonr tho nrotector has to give the

strength of the protestor to its ward
.ti,,. n.n'b-lnCT t-Vio -wnrd thft victim Of
n.-ivmiit maklnc the ward the victim of
tho protector, and so we believe in the
far-away Philippines, that this Nation
can be a protector as it has been in tha
South , American republics, and without
governing the people ourselves we can
say to the world 'Hands off and let that
republic live and work out its own des
tiny." "That is our theory and we feel that it
Is a significant fact that the Republican
party has planted itself upon the Euro
pean doctrine that you must own a coun.
try in order to be of service to it at the
same time that it plants itself upon the
European colonial idea. Tou will proba
bly find In your town a few people who
will support the Republican Idea of thS
colonial policy, but I suggest that when
you find a Republican that Is willing to
support the colonial Idea, you ask him to
show his islncerity by sending a petition
to the President, asking "him to apologize
to Great Britain for the trouble we made
her before we learned of tho blessings of
this colonial system, for if the Republi
can uarty Is right today In administering
colonies, taxing them without representa
tion and governing them without their
consent, then the colonists were wrong
123 years ago when they" asserted ' that
these principles were wrong.
"We are in Ohio for a fdw days, and I
am glad to have a chance to present our
side of this question to the people ot
Ohio, and I trust that when the election
is held tho result will show that even In
Ohio, despite the local Influences, despite
the residence of the President and the
residence of the national Republican
chairman, the returns will show that in
a great contest between the European
idea tof force and the American doctrine
of government by consent, Ohio will be
on the side of the United States instead
of on the side of Europe."
At Mineral Point there was also a brief
top, which was not on the schedule. At
that place Mr. Bryan asked layor Jones
and Mr. Monott to come to the car plat
form and then pointed to them as speci
mens of men who were bejng driven from
tho Republican party by its policies. He
asked his hearers to look at them and
ask themselves whether these policies are
such that "they . could remain with the
party.
At Neirr Philadelphia.
NEW, PHILADELPHIA, O., Oct 15.
Mr. Bryan made- his first important stop
of the day at New Philadelphia, O. The
entire public- square here was filled with
people to hear him. Mr. Bryan spoke for
40 minutes- and waa followed by Mayor
Jones and' Congressman Lentz. Speaking
of the ice trust and the accusation that
some of the directors of that trust. are
Democrats, Mr. Bryan asked why the
Republican Governor of the state did not
suppress that trust and thus prevent
Democrats and others from getting the
stock. In this same connection he re
ferred to Attorney-General Monetfs case,
jaylng it was evident that any Republi
can official must sacrifice duty when it
is necessary to serve the monopolies.
Otherwise, he must sacrifice himself. He
did not believe there cou'd be a good
monopoly, nor that God had ever made a
man good enough to stand at the head of
such concerns and say how much other
people should pay for the necessities of
life. He wanted, he said, a government
that would protect all lt3 citizens and
guarantee to all men a fair sltre of
their own earnings. Sir. Bryan declared
that the Republican party was trying to
hide behind the patent and was asking
if the Democratic party was going to de
troy the patent law. Continuing, he said:
"No honest man would make such a de
fense aa that, because nobody will believe
that when wo denounce monopolies, like
the sugar trust and the oil trust, wo
mean to destroy the patent law. What
Is the difference between a patent monop
oly and the monopolies that we are
after? .A man who gets a patent gets It
because he gives to the world a new idea,
and tho Government protects him in the
enjoyment of the profits of that idea for
a fixed time. But the trust magnate
gives to the world no new idea; ho simply
employs an old Idea, and you will find
it In tho Bible that the love of money
Is the root of all evil. He applies that
to tho trust question, that is no new
idea. The man who gives' you a new
Idea and gets a patent upon It gives
something that ' Is a blessing for the
race."
Referring to personal references to
himself, Mr. Bryan said he was not "as
rich as he had been represented to be,
and he explained how he had accumulated
tho property ho has since 1S96, by SSty
ing: '
"I made part of it out of a book which
nobody bought unless he wanted the
book; part of it I mado by writing ar
ticles which nobody read unless they
wanted to. and a part of it by speaking
at Chautauquas and other places, where
nobody came unless he wanted to. What
I -have made has been made from people
who came because they thought they got
what they were paying for, but If I had
been the attorney of the Standard Oil
trust, like the Republican Se'nator from
Nebraska, no Republican paper would
have condemned me for making money."
When Mr. Bryan closed he introduced
Mayor Jones, who said he was not here
as a partisan, but to utter a protest
against tho policy of tho present Admin-
1st ration.
At Alliance.
ALLIANCE, Q., Oct. 15. At Alliance
there was a delay of an hour or more,
due to an accident on a connecting road.
Here Attorney-General Monett was in
troduced bj' Mr. Bryan and spoke briefly
upon the inequalities of taxation. Mr.
Bryan said, In part:
"If the people would study- all the sys
tems under which they iive and try to
apply to all questions tho doctrines which
they believe in the abstract, of equal
rights to all and special privileges to
none, I believe that we would have In
this eountry an overwhelming majority
against the policies for which the Republican-
party is standing. Mr. Monett
has called your attention to the Inequali
ties of taxation. We tried to secure an
Income tax. We passed a law -that 'was
in accordance with the Supreme Court's
'decision, but when it came before the
court, at the first bearing, it was a tie
vote. At the second hearing the absent
-judge waa present. It looked as If we
wero going to get the decision, but, in
the meantime, one of the men who had
decided for the income tax on the first
hearing decided against the Income tax
on the second hearing, and that mado It
five to four againat the income tax, and
when that decision was rendered the cor
porations obtained exemption from that
2 per cent levied against their net in
come. We believe that the. Income tax
is a just tax, because it makes each
person pay In proportion to the benefits
which he receives, but the Republican
party, instead of putting a tax upon
people in proportion to their incomes,
puts a tax largely upon consumption, and
men are compelled to pay, not In pro
portion to what they have, but In propor
tion to what they want. But the Re
publican party does not stop with In
equality In taxatfon. local or National. It
is permitting the trusts and the private
monopolies of this country to take from
you more than you pay in support of tho
Government."
Mr, Bryan referred again to the full
dlnnor-pall argument, saying that thi3
was not sufficient to meet all the de
mands from the men who labor for a
living. Discussing the right of force as
a factor in the acquisition of territory.
Mr. Bryan said:
"They say we must rule the Filipinos
because we can, because they have been
thrown under our influence. Why, my
friends, there has not been a day in the
last 50 years when we could not have
taken Canada, if we had wanted to, 'and
yet we have not done it. There has not
been a day when we could not have taken
Cuba; thre has not been a day when we
could not have taken Mexico. We have
had an opportunity all these years to go
out and seize people by force, and make
them our subjects, but we have not
dono it Why? Because wo have an
nounced the doctrine that governments
derive their just powers from the consent
of the governed."
Speaking of the promise to take down
the flag in Cuba, some one in the crowd
asked: "Will they do It?"
Mr. Bryan replied: "I dont know, but
they have given the promise, and I am
willing to say they will keep It just for
the agreement."
At Cleveland.
CLEVELAND, Oct. 15. The reception
tendered to Mr. Bryan tonight in this
city was the most brilliant he has re
ceived on his entire tour. jThe Central
Armory, holding many thousands of peo
ple, where he made the first speech of
the evening, was filled to the point of
suffocation, and Bond street, a broad
thoroughfare leading from the Hollen
den Hotel, and along which Mr. Bryan
was to pass to reach the armorj'i was so
densely crowded with people that It was
difficult to get through the mass. Mr.
Bryan arrived at tho armory at 7:35, and
when ho entered the hall a vast major-,
Uy of tho people In the building rose as
one man to greet him, waving hats and
handkerchiefs and creating a very ani
mated scene. The demonstration contin
ued for several minutes, and when Mr.
Bryan arose to present Mayor Jones, of
Toledo, who was first to address the au
dience, the demonstration was renewed.
While Mr. Bryan was making this pre
liminary presentation, It became neces
sary for him to ask: 100 or more Demo
crats on the stage to sit down. Thoy al
knelt on the floor, whereupon Mr. Bryan
remarked that "Satan trembles when he
sees so many Democrats on their knees."
The Tomarlc was greeted with laughter.
Mayor Jones received a complimentary
welcome. He said that he was in the
campaign because he was against the war
in the Philippines and against the en
largement of tho standing Army. He
was, not there as a partisan, but as a
supporter of the fundamental principles
of human liberty. He predicted that the
indorsement of this principle would reach
a high-water mark In the coming election.
He told the peqple they should acknowl
edge no man as master, "when yourself
be free," he fald. "He" advised all to vote
for Mr. Bryan.
Mr. Bryan mounted a chair when he
began to talk, a few minutes past 8
o'clock. He .began by saying that "the
Issues which, are represented In this cam
paign enter the homo and affect the lives
of all our people."' Referring to the finan
cial legislation of the last session of Con
gress, MSr; Bryan said there were "many
little Congressmen" who knelt regularly
every morning and prayed to Senator
Hanna to "give us this day our dally
opinion." -The. remark was greeted with
laughter and cheers Mr. Bryan again
outlined his argument in support of an
income tax, and then took up the- ques
tion of trusts. He compared the trusts
to leeches, and said they were all .draw
ing blood from the American people, ex
pressing the opinion "that it was about
timo to da something foe the leech, habit."
When, after , making quotations from
President McKinley and Governor Roose
velt, Mr. Bryan, jokingly referred to Sen
ator Hanna "as the. head of the Repub
lican party,"' he was again cheered. He
denied that wo have any title to the
Philippines that accords with tha Dec
laration of Independence, and he again
explained his reasons for assisting in se
curing the ratification of the peace treaty.
He exclaimed: "Republicans, "ain't you'
ashamed of yourselves? If your "Presi
dent had to depend upon his defeated
rival to secure the ratification of this
treaty, you ought to commend instead of
condemn me."
While Mr. Bryan was speaking at the
Central Armory, thousands of people who
were unable to gain admission to the
building gathered around tho Hollenden
Hotel, from the balcony of which ad
dresses were delivered by ex-Attorney-General
Monnett, Mayor Jones, ex-Congressman
Tom Johnson, and others. At
9:30, Mr. Bryan having concluded his
speech at Central Armory, appeared on
the balcony, where he was Introduced by
Mr. Johnson. The Presidential candidate
was greeted here by tremendous cheering,
which continued for several moments.
Ho spoke briefly, discussing imperialism
and trusts. Probably 2000 people were
packed together in the immediate vicinity
of the hotel. Mr. Bryan left tonight at
10:30 for New Tork. His special car, the
Rambler, was attaohed to a regular train
on the Lake Shore, to arrive in New Tork
at 2:35 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. The
train will make only the regular stops
on the way, and It Is not Mr. Bryan's
present purpose to "make any speeches en
route. '

and Trnsts.

touch of life was given the campalcn
here by the arrival of Mr. Stevenson
shortly after noon from Mlllvllle. Mr.
Stevenson was greeted by a- large crowd.
He pronounced imperialism the para
mount, overshadowing Issue of the cam
paign. Speaking ot trusts, he said:
"The trust evil is the greatest evil of
this country. In three years over 600
trusts have grown up. with a capital of
$10,000,000,000; competition has been cut off
and there Is no chance for small capital.
Tou have been told there are no trusts
and that the trusts were good trusts. I
am Inclined to think the good trusts, like
the- good Indians, are all dead. When, they
talk of four years of prosperity, I am in
favor of four more years of prosperity
for the common people and not the trust3.
The growth of these corporations has
been so alarming that there must be
stringent laws against them. In.to whose
