TRIES TO EXPLAIN CHANGE
Says Clerks Have Learned Expenses
Grow Faster Than Salaries and
Business Men Learn Trusts
Drive Tlicm Out.
TRENTON. N. J.. Sort. 15. Pouring
hot shots Into W. H. Taft and the Re
publican party at every point where he
stopped. W. J. Bryan tonight in this c'.ty
concluded a strenuous day of campaign
ing In New Jerpey, after a few hours In
Philadelphia, where, in front of a news
paper ofnee and before an enthusiastic
throng, he arraigned the Republican or
ganization of that city and expressed his
sorrow for people who. he said, were
compelled! to live under Its rule. Switch
ing Into National politics, he asserted
that the Republican standard-bearer
promised that there would be no panic
and that Mr. Roosevelt, as Mr. Taft's
godfather, promised the same thing. He
wanted to know how Mr. Taft could
prevent panics, when Mr. Roosevelt al
ready had one on his hands.
Only an hour before his arrival In that
stronghold of Republicanism Mr. Bryan
fired a broadside at Mr. Taft In a state
ment in which he cited his record In
several matters on which Mr. Taft had
challenged him to declare himself.
Wild Reception In Jersey.
Mr. Bryan's reception In New Jersey
was a demonstrative one. At Washing
ton Park, on the New Jersey side of
the Delaware Rlverf below Philadelphia,
he addressed more than 20.000 persons,
his audience according him a great ova
tion. His speech of over an hour was
continually interrupted by cheers and
handclapping. A statement by him that
his nomination for a third time, after
two defeats, with no President to help
him with hi? patronage, was due to the
growth of the ideas for which he stood,
provoked the wildest enthusiasm.' His
every utterance almost was directed at
Mr. Taft. whom he charged with running
on the record of President Roosevelt.
On the way here Mr. Bryan spoke at
Camden and Burlington to great crowds
and shook hands with many hundreds of
persons.
Direct Attack on Dupont.
Incidentally he again attacked T. Cole
man Dupont. of the Republican execu
tive committee, reiterating hi? former
charge that Mr. Dupont, as a trust mag-
nate. was unfit to occupy the position of
attempting to institute reforms. Along
the line of travel from Camden here,
stops were made at a dozen places, and
large crowds gave him an enthusiastic
welcome.
Mr. Bryan's speech in this city, tonight
covered much of the 'same ground gone
over during: the- day. Taylor Opera
House. here he spoke here, was crowd
ed from pit to dome. Seated on the
stage were a number of the members of
the state Democratic committee, includ
ing Chairman James R. Nugent. The
meeting was intensely enthusiastic and
contained ninny Democrats who had been
opposed to Mr. Bryan In his former cam
paigns. Mr. Bryan left on a late train for
Rochester, traveling via Jersey City,
where he will make a brief stop in the
morning.
Y COXTII.VSTS TWO CAMPAIGNS
Bryan Describes Change in Eastern
Opinion SJnce 1896.
WASHINGTON PARK. N. J.. Sept. 15.
"My nomination for a third time after
two defeat and with no President to
help me with his patronage, has been
due to one thing alone, and that Is the
growth of the ideas for which I eland
and the conviction among the people
that I am on their side."
fc In these words W. J. Bryan today
addressing a multitude of people at
this place, who cheered him loudly and
long, sounded the keynote of his first
speech to the voters of New Jersey In
the present campaign. The Democratic
candidate never showed In better form.
From the opening to the close of his
remarks, the great throng gave demon
strations of approval of his utterances.
Coming directly to the Issues of the
campaign. Mr. Bryan declared that the
period had been reached in the history
of the Democratic party "when the
Kast and the West, the North and the
South, can unite upon a platform." Mr.
Bryan then compared the difference be
tween the conditions In 1S96 and the
present time. "When I spoke In the
Kast In 1S96." he said, "I recognized
that there was an intense opposition.
I recognized that there were people
who feared that my election would be
injurious to the country, and they com
municated that fear to those who
worked for them." He declared that no
such feeling could be found today.
"There are," he said, "no people who
I are fearful of danger In case of my
f election." Continuing, he said:
C'ontrants 1896 With 1U08.
In I8SMI the clerks In the stores were In
many, if not most, cases given to under
stand that. If 1 won, there might b no
business doing In the country for four years.
Today the clerks in the stores are not being
advised by their employers as they were
twelve years ago. The clerks in the stores
.are learning that under Republican rule
their living expenses have increased more
rapidly than their salaries.
There were, business men who in lSOtl
thought their business was Jeopardized or
would be by a Democratic victory, but
these business men in the last 12 years have
learned enough about the trusts to know
that their business has been Jeopardized
under Republican rule and that nothing but
a Democratic victory can save their busi
ness. There were many small manufac
turers who viened with alarm Democratic
victory In lsittt, but the smaller manufac
turer knows today that his business is in
secure as long as great trusts are permitted
to stalk abroad and drive Into bankruptcy
men who refuse to sell out to them. In
1S!m; laboring men were threatened with a
panic In rase of my election and they have
learned that the Democratic party has no
monopoly on panics. They have learned that
the Republican party can bring on a panic
as well as the Democratic party.
Democrats, but Don't Know It.
My friends, when I am talking out West.
I tell the Republicans that, If 1 could bring
them up one at a time and put them on the
platform and question them. I could prove
by their own testimony that nine-tenths of
them are Democrats and don't know It.
Now I don't know whether the proportion
is as large down here or not, but 1 can
prove to you that many, very many, who
call themselves Republicans are nearer to
. us In their ideas than they are to the Re
T publican leaders.
Mr. Bryan accidentally knocked over a
f glass of water and several men below
were sprinkled. The crowd laughed and
Mr. Bryan was quick to remark that
SAYS TAFT DODGES ISSUES
Bryan Returns to Attack on Arrival
at Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 15. "Mr. Taft
is dodging. He cannot escape from the
issues. He will not be permitted to run
away from them. He has accepted the
nomination of his party. Now, let him
take the people into his confidence and
Interpret hie platform so that the public
will know where he stands and what he
intends to do."
In these words, William J. Bryan, In
an interview today, on the way from Bal
timore to this city. Issues another chal
lenge to Mr. Taft. his Republican oppo
nent. He read Mr. Taft's utterances,
printed this morning, and dictated a re
tort, which Ib In part as follows:
"Mr. Taft Is dodging. Instead of de
fining his position on public questions, he
is inquiring about my record, and in his
inquiry he shows that he knows as little
about my record as he does about the
public questions which he has attempted
to discuss. He accuses me of being
changeable and of abandoning issues."
Defends Ills Own Record.
Mr. Bryan said he had been a tariff re
former for 2S years; had advocated the
election of Vnlted States Senators by the
people for 12 years, and had been favor
lng an income tax for 14 years, and Mr.
Taft is only now coming around to his
position on these questions. Continuing,
Mr. Bryan said:
"I said In 1S96 that the Filipinos ought
to have their independence. Mr. Taft has
this year admitted that the people must
ultimately have Independence. I have
maintained my position. I have also dis
cussed the Philippine question in this
campaign and called attention to the fact
that Mr. Taft made a mistake of J114.000,
000 in ills estimate of the cost of im
perialism. "On the railroad question he has ex
pressed himself as strongly as I have.
He has said and the President has also
said that Government ownership will fol
low If the railroads prevent regulation. I
have said the same thing. I do not de
sire Government ownership. I hope that
the railroads will permit regulation. Our
position only differs In that he has more
faith' than I have In the willingness of
the railroads to be reguleted.
"He spends some time on the money
question. The money question has been
taken out of politics because the unex
pected discovery of gold has given the
Increase which was demanded by 4the Re
publican party as well as by the Demo
cratic party.
"Mr. Taft cannot escape from the is
sues. Will he define his position on the
tariff question? On the labor question?
On the. railroad question? And on the
questions that are presented in this cam
paign? He will not be permitted to run
away from them.
"If he prefers to delve into the past
rather than meet the issues of the pres
ent, he will explain the Benguet Railroad,
In the Philippines, and the perpetual fran
chise that he wanted to fasten upon the
Filipinos, with a perpetual guarantee of
income to the corporations securing the
franchises? Will he explain his record
on the labor question, and his silence on
the tariff question and the trust question
during his official service In Washington?"
Mr. Bryan arrived here at 10:20
o'clock and rode In an automobile to
Dqoner's Hotel, the headquarters of the
Bryan League of Pennsylvania. Mr.
Bryan was warmly welcomed by a
great- crowd at Dooners, and held a
brief reception.
After his reception at Dooner s, Mr.
Bryan was escorted to the office of the
Philadelphia Record, where he spoke to a
larire crowd while standing on a small
platform In front of a baseball scoreboard
He referred to his invasion of the East
and to the fact that the Democrats in this
section were not so well equipped as they
ought to be to present their cause.
Xo Apology for Stumping.
"Where we cannot reach voters through
printed pages," he said, "it Is more neces
sary to meet the voter face to face. I of
fer no apology for coming, although I am
a cadnidate for the highest office in the
world."
Referring to "Shall the People Ruler' he
arraigned the election methods Of Phila
delphia,
Mr. Bryan said that the Democratic
platform was offensive to bosses and very
offensive to the bosses of Philadelphia.
Some one In the crowd asked:
"How about Maine?" and Mr. Bryan replied:
"Maine has returned the lowest Re
publican, majority in 27 years, and to
be conservative 1 have to concede on
this showing a few states to the Re
publicans."
He said that Mr. Taft promised pros
perity, and President Roosevelt in
dorsed the idea, but he asked how is
Mr. Taft going to give prosperity when
his godfather, Mr. Roosevelt, already
has a panic on his hands.
The bitterness engendered In Penn
sylvania la3t April over the election of
Bryan delegates, which led to a con
test at the state convention, and which
was carried to Denver, where James
Kerr defeated Colonel James Guffey,
has not yet disappeared, and there were
many diplomatic moves to settle the
question as to who should have the
honor of entertaining Mr. Bryan in this
city.
The Bryan League wanted the honor
and the Democratic state organization
was opposed to it. The organization
was backed by the New Jersey commit
tee. A compromise was finally ar
ranged by which the Bryan League
gave him the reception at Dooner's,
after which he was taken in hand by
the New Jersey committee, which ten
dered him a luncheon at the Belle-vue-Stratford.
To this luncheon repre
sentatives of the Democratic state and
city organizations were invited.

State Federation of Labor Itefuses
to Indorse Bryan.
OGDES, Utah. Sept. 13. The Utah
Federation of Labor, in session here,
through a special committee today
failed to Indorse the general circular
from the executive committee of the
American Federation of Labor, urging
the support of Bryan, and advised that
the local unions be allowed to act with
out instructions from the state organi
zation. The report of the committee
was unanimously adopted. Much oppo
sition to committing the unions to an
espousal of the cause of any one party
was manifested among the delegates
in attendance, and the action taken
is looked upon as a compromise with
the element opposed to mixing politics
and unionism.
The resolutions submitted, however.

matchless leader, who has devoted his
