CLEVELAND. O., Oct. 17. This has
been, a day of triumph for Governor
Roosevelt in Ohio. Tonltrht the City of
Cleveland ave him a reception "rivalling1
any such demonstration ever made here.
There was an Immense parade, consist
ing of half a score of brass hands, dozens
hf political organizations, Including many
Which had come hither from other places
to do honor to the candidate for Vice
JRresldent, Superior street the. chief
-thoroughfare through -which the parade
passed, was ablaze with electric lights,
suspended In loops crosswise and length
wise from tall pillars, surrounded by
Naming globes and -decorated, with ever
green. JUong this brilliant course thou
sands of flambeaux flared. The walks
"Were thronged - with men, women and
children, who drew so near that the
horses of the various mounted sections
almost trampled them. t
From the Union station, riding In a gor
geously decorated carriage,.drawn by four
white horses, in company with Governor
"Nash and Senator Foraker, Governor
JEioosevelt was escorted while bands
Jtlayed'jand cannon boomed salutes along
the route of the parade to a large tent
on Marcclllne avenue, Newburg, the Iron
working district, where he addressed a
large audience on the subject" of pros
perity. His speech was very brief, con
sisting of part of that delivered by him
an hour later at Central Armory, in Bond
street. '
Senator Foraker opened the meeting -at j
xne Armory, making a. 'strong appeal m
behalf of the Republican ticket, and at
the close of his address Governor Roose
velt was Introduced. The Governor said:
"Mr. Bryan won't tell you outright
"what he will do. He puts questions and
I answer every one of them, but he
won't answer whether, if elected, he will
pay the Interest upon the Government
debt and the pensions to the soldiers in
silver or In gold; whether he will nay
- them 100-cent dollars or 48-cent dollars. A
He woriT answer why he wants the con
sent of -the, governed for -a lot of Tagal
bandits on the other side of the earth,
and connives at the denial of the right
of .self-government to our 'fellow-Americans
of duskier skin in the Garollnas.
Now, gentlemen, one reason I have asked
.your support Is 'because xwe tell you
what we mean and our promises square
with our performances.
"Now, I want to ask your attention
just a moment to the question of trusts,
using the word "trust In the broad signifi
cance as ,meaning all big corporations.
3fcr. Bryan says that they are all 'bad?
Then why does Ws chief manager. Sena
tor Jones, who is carrying on his cam
paign for him. go unrebuked .'by Mr.
Bryan for being one of the chief stock
holders In the cotton bale'trus? And,
again, Mr. Bryan Is at this moment In
my own state helping in the effort to en
throne ilr, Croker, of the ice trust.
"No one with common sense Is so fool
ish as to desire the destruction, of capital.
Every reasonable man understands and
believes that overgrown corporations
should be subject to rigid supervision,
and, when necessary, to restriction. Mr.
Bryan's declared remedy of the f evils
which exist In such corporations 4s the
destruction of the industries concerned,
bringing down In one common ruin em
ployer and employed. For example:
Sugar is manufactured by such a corpo
ration. Mr. Bryan favors the destruction
of the sugar refining and beet sbgar and
cane sugar-growing Industries of the
United State by the Introduction of free
Xorelgn sugar into this country- It
wduld destroy every man who raise's sugar
beets or sugar cane ox works in a sugar"
refinery. "
"'I have asked him to state which one
sf the commodities made by big corpora
tions he specifically desires to have made
free. According to his statement and. the
Kansas City platform, he would have all
of j-hem made f re. Ho will have such
commodities as American worsted cloths'
made by the American Woolen Company
exposed to the free competition of Euro-
pean cloths, not only dragging American
workmen in the worsted mills of the
United States down, but depriving every
Ohio farmer of an American market for
American wool. Mr. Bryan's policy would
include free steel rails, free glass, free
china and pottery and the exposure of
the American workingman, as well as
the American capitalist, to the unre
stricted competition of the Chinese la
borer, who makes -silks and porcelain and
grows rice and wool, to compete with the
products of American labor.
"We are opposed to correcting an evil by
the utter destruction of the industry in
which that evil rises. If the stovepipe is
out of order it is very poor policy to get
rid of the difficulty by burning down the
house. Our method of dealing with these
evils Is to correct the corporation laws
which permit such evils to exist. -Nown
the National Government under the Con
stitution has at present no power to deal
wl&i"1 these great corporations. On the
1st of last June, the Republicans Intro
duced In Congress a bill to give the Na
tional Government power to regulate, if
necessary to suppress, any of the big
trusts or similar corporations. I say if.
necessary to suppress, for there Ts both
jood and evil hi corporations, Just as
among Individuals. We want to cut out
the cancer, but we don't want to kill
the patient. Every Republican but two
voted for, and every Democrat but four
Voted against, the amendment to the Con
stitution and in favor of the trust, and
the Democratic leader, "Mr. Richardson,
of Tennessee, stated that he voted in fa
vor of the trust because it was bad pol
icy, from a Democratic standpoint, to
take the trust issue out of the present
campaign. In other words, they avowed,
with singular sbnmelessness, that they
did not wish a remedy for the evils con
nected with the trusts, but that they
wanted to keep an open sore that Jt
might benefit their party. Gentlemen, you
cannot afford to support a party that ap
proaches a great public question in that
spirit.
"In my own state two years ,ago I ran
tgalnst Mr. Van Wyck. who was noml-
' aated by Mr. Croker. (I speak advisedly.
It is strictly a tneman power in New
York.) They denounce trusts on the
stump. I would not promise as much as
they did, because I was hampered by
the, fact that. I Intended to. make my
words good. I Intended to make my per
formances and my promises square. We
put through in New York the franchise
tax bill, under which 5200.000,000 of cor
porate prpperty, street railway and slmi- I
jar irancnises, were aaaea to me assess
ment roll. The result is that within the
past six yeara of Republican rule in New
York the- tax rate has been lower than
for years. That is performance. On the
other hand, we have in .New York Mr.
Croker. Mr. Croker denounces trusts and
he Is one of the blggftst stockholders in
the ice trust. Mr. Croker's rival in Ma
loyal support of Mr. Bryan is David B.
HI1L Ho Is against -trusts In his public
capacity, but in his private capacity he
Is" the retained counsel of the' big cor
porations in the -effort to break down tho
franchise tax law. Now, gentlemen, tho
thing you want Is sincerity in making
what you say on the stump good off
that stump, and a ton of -oratory does not
count so "much as a pound of perform
ance. I tell you what we "have done and
I ask you to compare it with what oar
opponents talked, but what they did not
do:

The first Hlg demonstration, however, wasr
made at Toledo, where the Governor ad
dressed a crowd that almost filled - the
circus lot. An hour and a half was spen,t
.here In theparade and speaking. "Leaving
Toledo at 4:45 P. M., the train made brief
stops at Clyde, Bellevue and Elyria. At
Clyde; the employes of a -granite and mar
ble company presented the Governor with
a bucket filled with sandwiches, pie artd
coffee and bearing tho legend, "Eight
hours and a full dinner pail.'
Tonight Dr. Curtis, the Governor's phy
sician, who will leave the train at Can
ton tomorrow, said:
"Govei'npf Roosevelt's voice depends
upon the avoidance of overfatigue. If he
exercises a ljttle more care than he has
in the past, I think he may be able to
fulfill his engagements, but I could not
guarantee any voice where 25 speeches
are made on twoconsecutlve days, with
Interrupted rest and under reat nerousj
strain. Otherwise, Governor JRooseveit is
in superb physical condition."
Since leaving Chicago last Wednesday
morning, Governor Rposevelt's train has
traveled 1777 miles, and has been handled

The Barllarht Speeches.
TOLEDO, O., Oct 17. Warm sunshine,
in contract with the chilly weather of
yesterday, greeted Governor Roosevelt at
the opening of his second day's campaign
in Ohio. He made his first speech of the
day at Delaware, where he addressed, a
large audience in Grace Chapel ot the
Ohio Wesleyan University.
" Marion was reached at 9:20 o'clock, and
a large crowd greeted the train.
1 Governor "Roosevelt reached Carey at
10:40 A. M., making a 10-minute stop. He
spoke for only two minutes, saying that
hla physician had forbidden long speeches
and was followed by Colonel Curtis Guild,
Jr.'
At Toledo, Governor Roosevelt was met
by a great assemblage, who cheered him
enthusiastically. There was a parade and
a barbecue, and the streets were deco
rated. A half hour stop was made at Eo&toria,
where Governor "Nash spoke at' the con
clusion of Governor Roosevelt's remarks
Six miles from Pembervllle a stop was
made at Bradner, where the" Governor ap
peared on. the platform of his car and
bowed to a cheering crowd.- Howard
Rowe, a 10-year-old boy who had come
down from school to see the Governor,
was boosted aboard by his companions
and rode to Pembervllle as thp Governor's
guest. At the latter place, the Governor
had the youngster put on a train and,
taken home. At Pembervllle the Gov
ernor spoke briefly.
HOODLUM THREW A ROCXC.
Roosevelt Struck on the Head, Bnt
Not Hart.
CLEVELAND, Oct. 17. At Newburg to
night, a boy standing some distance away
threw a rock at Governor Roosevelt as
the latter was leaving the tent In com
pany with National Committeeman Her
rick, of Ohio, and others. The rock struck
the Governor on, the head. Quickly tho
Governor's companions closed around him
and hustled him into a passing car, on
which he was bpxne away.
"I was not hurt at all," said the Gov
ernor, when he returned to his car and
discussed the matter with several friends.
"The rock was thrown by one of a num
ber of hoodlums, and I saw him throw
it It struck my head, but-my hat pre
vented it from wounding me. In the light
of the splendid reception Cleveland has
given me, the stone-throwing is scarcely
worth remembering .for a moment."
DEWEY GAVE NO PROMISE.
Sory of Alejnndrlno, the Filipino,
Ik Shown to Be Entirely False.
Washington. R. Wildman, Consul-Gen-erai
of the United States at Hong Kong,
has written to the Department of State
denying the statement of J. Alejandrino,
aT Filipino, who in a letter to Senators
Hoar and Pettigrew told of an interview
with Admiral Dewey, in which Dewey
promised the Filipinos" Independence,
placed at their disposal his .fleetj "for
the conveyance of both Filipino, leaders
ana the arms," held out the hope that
f the United States would supply them
witn further arms, and assured them
that the United States would not take one
j inch of the Philippine Islands. Wildman
says:
"As I am personally acquainted with
the writer (J. Alejandrino) and am fa
miliar with all his movements while he
was in Hong Kong, and conducted what
ever negotiations there were between him
self and Dewey, I think it my duty to
place on record a true statement of the
affair.
'In the first place, I beg to say that
Admiral Dewey never saw Alejandrino, or
ever had one word of conversation with
him. Just before Admiral Dewey's squad
ron was leaving for Mlrs Bay, F. Agon
cillo and T Sandlco, representing the
Philippine iunta in Hong Kong, asked
permission to have an interview with Ad
miral Dewey before he left for Manila. I
saw the Admiral personally regarding
this request, and he said I might bring
out to Mlrs Bay any three of the Junta
who cared to come. On April 27 I took
'to Mlrs Bay, in the tugboat Fame, San
dlco, Garchiterena and Alejandrino.
"After the battle of Manila 3ay, Ad
miral Dewey gave Alejandrino permission
to land at Cavlte and join his f rlepds. He.
however, declined to do so, unless the
Admiral furnished him with a marine
guard. He remained on the collier Nan
shan until It was convenient for thfj Ad
miral to Teturn him to Hong Kong, which
occurred within a fortnight.' Alejandrino
returned discredited by his own nesocl-l
ates, who openly charged him with cow
ardice, Tho letter under review proves
him also to be a liar."
This dispatch from Wildman was re
ferred to the Navy Department for the
information of Admiral Dewey, who com
ments tliereon as follows;
"Attention is invited to the following
extract from page 172, report of the Phil
ippine Commission: 'No alliance of any
kind was entered into with Aguinaldo,
nor was any promise of Independence
made to him then or a$ any other time.'
The same is true of Alejandrino, who, to
the best of my knowledge, I have never
seen, and of all other Filipinos."

Into the speeches,. at.tlmes by sharp qUes-
tioning on the. part of the audiences, who
desired to- hear abouttrusts and imperial
ism, snd were not slpw to make their
wishes known. This'.was true especially
at Aberdeen, where Senator Hanna was
constantly interrupted during his speech
by questions' regarding various phases of
the trust issue. Senator Hanna apparent
ly enjoyed theso interruptions, and ' in
variably answered them. In ''the aXter

state, and stops were brief and infre
quent, Senator Hanna spent about half
of bis time at the various stations "shak

dragged him from his car on one occa

him. At Webster, he was visited in his
car by a delegation of Sioux Indians from

at Troy to the capacity of an opera-house
and at ah overflow meeting of collar fac
tory and laundry employes, at lIechanlcs
vlile to railroad people, at Cohoes to tho
mass of employes of the cotton and wool
en mills, and at Albany to two Immense
meetings, one In the Opera-House and
one outside, composed of the beat ele
ment of tho city. The great meetings- of
this trip were held at Troy, the home
of ex-S6nator Murphy, and at Albany,
the home of ex-Senator Hill. Mr. Hill
Ig absent in the 'West. At both Troy and
Albany the meetings were phenontenaiiy
large and enthusiastic, Immense over
flows having to be held to accommodate
those who desired to see or hear Mr.
Bryan.
Mr. Bryan today alluded to many things
which he has not mentioned at many otl
er places during the campaign. 'At Hud
sun he said:
"I bel'eve that Mexico Is- far better off
because we took our flag down from the
capital Then tho Mexican War was over
and brought It hack ..to the Rio Grande.
I think Mexico !s better today, and we
are better, than if vq had .held a car-pef-bag
government in place there by
means of bayonets, and I think that self
government In, Mexico, half Spanish and
half Indian, has" develop the people more
and brought them further than woula
have heen- the case had- we held them
under our domain; and If you 'doubt t,
look at Mexico and compare -Mexico, with
India. Under 3Q. years of self-government,
Mexico has niadel more progress than In
dia has made In 150 years, oppressed byt
Anglo-Stion soldiery. They only have
100.000 English In India out of 300,000,000.
and it takes ah army of 70.CO0 British"
soldiers to take care of the British' popu
lation, and it takes a native army of
140,000 to help the "British Army of 70,000
in Its work of protection."
At Albany tho meetings were not begun
as promptly as sonfe that had taken place,
elsewhere, a parade keeping' the assem
blages In the street and theater wailing.
The theater was filled to repletion, and a
large overflow on the outside commanded
Mr. Bryan's attention. Mr. Bryan's voice
showed palpable signs of wear. He said'
in part:
"I remember In 1S96 your state Repub
lican convention adopted, a platform
something like this: 'yo demand that
this Government shall be conducted by
business men, on business principles, and
Ihvthe interest of the country,' or words
to' that effect. But the trouble is that
the men "Who talk that way so limit the
definition of a business man that very
few are included. Is a farmer a busi
ness man?. Well, I think not. He does
work. That Is all he does. He com
mences in the morning and works all
day; commences In. the Spring and works
all Surmiier; and It at the end of the
Summer he is able to show enough as
the result of his labor to realize a small
percentage on the investment, he hlnks
he is doing well. But he is no business
.man. Who is? The man who goes on
the Board of Trade at 10 o'clock in the
morning, and -makes more before noon
betting on the price of wheat the farmer
raises, than the farmer can make raising
it. Isttho laboring man a business man?
No. He simply converts raw material
Into finished product?. He Is not a busi
ness mans Who is?, The man w,ho trades
lh what this producer produces. I believe
that every man who by hla muscle or
his brain adds to the greatness, tho
wealth or the glory of this Nation is a
business man, and, I believe election day
is the most important business day of all
the year.
"Tho Republican sparty goes on -the
theory that society 'is built from the top.
They say take care of tho well-to-do and
they will take care of those who are not
wellrto-do, and when you tell them ot
the story of Lazarus and Dives, they
say: 'What a lucky man Lazarus was
to have a Dives so near that he could
get the crumbs lhat fell from Dives'
table!' A man In your state In 1896 said
that the prosperity Of the laboring man
and the farmer depended upon the pros
perity of the banker and the business
man He got it just reversed. The pros
perity of the business man depends upon
the prosperity of the fnrmer and the la
boring man, for until wealth Is produced
there s nD wealth to exchange. And yet
Hin "RAntihllnana f ipv VniMt A. TimiBfl as
they build society, would build the roof
first and then hang the house to the roof.
They go on the thedry that-a man who
has a place 'to work ought to be under
some obligation to his employer. No
man employs another unless the man
employed ' can make enough to pay his
own wages and a profit beside to-the man
wher employs him. And yet when elec
tion day comes, the employer sometimes
thinks that the man wo works ror him
sells his citizenship when he sells his
labor. And often the employer tries to
coerce the laboring man. If It is right
for an employer to vote the vote olj his
employe, then I Insist that the law should
be changed, so as to give every employer
as many Votes as ho has employes. As
It is now, they sometimes get away, and
if the vote belongs to the citizen and not
to the employer, theq every citizen who
prizes his ballot and appreciates the re
sponsibility of citizenship should speak
out against the Intimidation that Is often
practiced against those who are In the
employ, of others."
Mr. Bryan then. took up the question of
trusts and militarism along the usual
lines. He called attention to Governor
Roosevelt' argument that the people
were not afraid of a large standing army,
and said if any one asked who was afraid
of a large standing army, to tell him
Governor Roosevelt was, as evidenced by
his recent tatoments that a large army
would be unnecessary, but for the war
In the Philippines. Speaking of the claim
of the Republicans that our presence in
the Philippines was due to destjny, Mr.
Bryan said:
"Destiny is thesubterfuge of the in
ebriate. It is the coward's excuse for
falling lh with that" with which, he has not
the strength to resist."
Mr. , Bryan referred to Mr. Hanna'n
speech yesterday, In which he said th
pebple ought not to swap horses in crosp
hg a stream, .and said! ,
"Mr. Hanna is mistaken. The Republi
can party is not crossing a stream, but
an ocean. It is going back to European
ideas, and, you had bestswap horses and
come back, instead of crossing the
ocean."
Start From New Yorlc City,
NEW YORK, Oct, ' 17 Mr. Bryan
breakfasted today with ex-Governor
Stone, Congressman Richardson, his pri
vate secretary and Judge Carrow, and nt
8:30 started 'for the Grand C6ntral depot
to take 'a train for up-state points.
"I am In good Bhape," said Mr. 'Bryan.
"I understand I'm to have an easy time
of it Up the state, afid I can afford to
feel good." '
He laughed at the joke, for the fact 13
that he is to make speeches nt frequent
intert'als of the tour. He spoke about
the number of persons who lost their
hats by the big, wind at the outside
meetings last night, and he said the Re
publican party ought to compensate these
people for the loss.
"The big Republican wind from the
West' carried them away," he said.
, Mr. Bryan arrived jat the Grand Central
station at 8 o'clock and the train left at.
9:93. Before it pulled,-out Mr. Bryan said
his reception here had been most satis
factory In every detail. Owing to the
early liour .there was no more than the
ushal stir about the station, , Those who
were around lifted their hata as. they
passed' and a group of men down the
track, cheered. Mr. Bryan's private car,
"Rambler, was attached to a special
train. Mr. Bryan said good-by to a few
persons and passed Into his car. He ap
peared later on the rear platform. Quite
a crowd had gathered by this time. Mr.
Bryan uncovered and as the train pulled
out the crowd cheered.
Before leaving the Hoffman House this
mornlg Mr. -Bryari turned to State Com
mitteeman Campbell and asked:
"Do you thihk the Republicans rightly
gauge the significance of last nlght'3
demonstration?"
Several persons pifesent answered In
the negative.
"The meeting carried with it," added
Mr. Bryan, "Its own, story. It was the
largest demonstration I have ever wit
nessed anywhere on any occasion. The
enthusiasm appeared to be sincere and at
all the meetings of 'last night my au
ditors appeared to be en rapport. I am
perfectly satisfied.".
His Early Speeches.
POUGHKEEPSIE. N. Y.. Oct. 17-Mr
Bryan made the first stop In his tour at
ionker6 at 9:30. He was cordially greet
ed by quite a throng. The stqp was only
10 minutes. Mr. fervan wamprt "his hear
ers against ail prlvato monopolies. Ho de- f
glared that the Republican party was
under so many obligations to the trusts
and Its fortunes were so bound up with
theirs that no leader of the party dared
raise his voice against them. On the con-
trary, he asserted, the Republican party
was standing Idly by, allowing the-trusts
to rob the people, while It was devoting
itself largely to collecting campaign funds
-from the:-combinations. The poor man.
he said! is7cornutgtao the SSc
party because ho wants a chance in the
race for life. He believes in equal rights
to all and special privileges to none, and
he finds the Democratic party in favor
of that doctrine and the Republican party
opposed to It. Mr. Bryan closed with an
appeal to, the American people to let the
Filipino work, out their own destiny.
Mr". "Bryan spoke for fiva minutes from
the rear platform of the special train to
a good crowd at Tarry town. He said:
"The Republicans say that we are try
ing 'to arrajr ohe class of 'society against
ariother. I say we are not. We are
trying to reach all classes of society and
to do justice among all, and Instead of
trying to array the rich against the poor,
we want the rich andpoor to become
better acquainted, il have not, heard of
two, heavens, one tor the rich and one
fo'r the poor. I think I can do some good
If I get the rich and .the poor acquainted
here on earth so they will know each
other when they meet across the river."
Flve-mlnute stops -were made at Sing
Sing, Peeksklll, Cold Spring and Flshklll.
At Sing Sing, Mr. Bryan said:
"This Is where, you have a great many
people who have a full dlnner-pall, be
cause the state always gives the pris
oners a' full dlnner-pallf.'but.' while they
are given a full dlnner-pall they are de
prived "bf their -liberty, ancf when the
trusts offer a full dlnner-pall to an Amer
ican workingman I want you to know
that they offer It In return for a sur
render of the liberty of the Individual.
The despotism of a monopoly la almost
as bad as the confinement of IJie peni
tentiary. You want a chance to bo In
dependent; the trust takes It away from
you."
In his brief speech at Peeksklll, Mr
Bryan referred to Senator Depew, saying:
"I am surprised to find so many people
here, for I supposed that In this commu
nity, where your distinguished Senator
lived, you would be afraid of me as a
dangerous man. It Is gratifying to find
that so many of you have formed your
opinion from reading other speeches- or
other articles than those which emanate
from your Senator. I am sorry that I
cannot have his. aid, but ,yiex.ejare so
many other laboring men who are rwlth
me that I suppose I can get along
without his suppojrt In this campaign, j
You have heard of the dlnner-pall argu
ment here, and your Senator Is a ' good
man to preach it, for his dlnner-pall la
full. I suppose that his Senatorial Hilary
will fill' his dlnner-pall and leay'e the
railroad salary for, a fair supper ih, the
evening."
At Newburg, Mr. Bryan and hla. party
stopped for an hour. Mr. B?j-an spoke
to a crowd of several thousand peqple
from a stand In front of the courthouse,
and the speech was frequently and loudly
applauded. Before he was Introduced.
Mayor Jones, of Toledo, and John X
Delany,. of New York. . made brief
speeches. Mr. Bryan spoko for about 'SO
minutes. He charged the Republican
party with dishonesty in its dealings with
tho people, and In support of this state
ment cited the attitude of that party
towards Jtho trusts.. He read an editorial
article from a Newburg newspaper con
cernlng the trusts, which he said was an f Thsa are the only dental parlors in Port
effort to convince tho people that the land having patented appliances and
trusts are administered In their Interest.
"I want you to know." said Mr. Bryan,
"that tho National Biscuit Company has
116 factories, and when I was at Man
kato, Minn., the other day, I found a
cracker factory that had been bought
by the National Biscuit Company and
closed down within a short time. The
American Steel & Wire Company controls
80 per cent of the output of wire nails
and steel wire, and you remember that
within a year that company closed down
12 factories, threw 6000 men out of em
ployment and then reduced the price of
wire nallS and barbed wire in an instant,
threw upon the men who had bought up
a stock of wire and nails a heavy loss,
and It was stated that the manwho wa3
responsible did It In order to make more
money on the stock In tha depression
of the price of stock than a man could
make In any ordinary business In a life
time. "Why Is It," he asked, "that your pa
pers will defend these trusts?"
Mr. Bryan charged that the Republican
party was circulating a book, written by
a man named Weeks defending the trusts,
and said:
"The National Publishing Company, of
New York, printed the book. It first
asked the trusts to buy the book and
circulate it. It .found that the trusts
did not want to undertake the circulation
of the book themselves, and this tub-

party that thus promises tho people re
lief from the trusts while Us committee

Mr. Bryan also referred to tho Increase
of the standing army, and asked those
who had asked for an Increase to hold
up their hands. Two hands went up, but
the men who held their hand? aloft failed
to state what business they were en
gaged in when requested by Mr. Bryan to
do so. Recalling the fact that Gn-?rU
Washington had had headquarters here,
Mr. Bryan said:
"Here It "was that Washington refused
a crown, and we love him beca-ise ho
Was great enough to prefer a gwri
ment of the people, by the people and for
the people to a government restl-ig on
force."
Mr. Bryan had a fine crowd at Pougn
keepsle, and was well received. He s-poKe
for 10 minutes, devoting himself largely
to a defense of the common people, saving
that there was no demagoglsm li such,
defense. , .
