Thn year ag i, he aald. It waa cliilm
ed tliut the free silver rraxe wn- dSnl,
and its dehih put hlm III mind of the thai, it Is this: Will the people have
Irishman's feme, which was four f.-ciju,,. lver dollar or will they have the
IllKh and tlve feet wide, "so that w hen nat,.n il bank note? The so-called
It Link down," as Pat suld, "it would j 'sound money' scheme Is one whlrh will
le hiKh-r than before." The thousands ; do awnv with treasury notes, necess!-
jof trumps throiiKhout the country are
not the result of a natural cause; their
condition is due to legislation In favor
of the buiikci and monopolists across
t he sea.
The Chicago convention, he declared,
was the greatest of Its kind In the his
tory of the world. He compared Bryun
to Jackson, and suld he Is running on
the same platform upon which Lincoln
was elected one that denouurea the
supreme court. It took a Western man
to settle the slavery question and it
take a Western man to settle the
money question. Referring to the asc
of the boy orator of the Platitude, he
said he was old enough to scare the
Koldbugs almost to death, whereat the
crowd set up a great yell.
Then he told a long story about what
"we" did in Chicago, and how "we
knew "our" action would array the
'money power" against "us." He said
the people want the money of the coji
atltuthm. and. "by the Kternal, we will
have IC" He paid his respects to
Messrs. Palmer and ltuckner, whom he
called yellow-hammers, a bird that "nl-
waya comes pecking around after all
the other birds have pecked." He
spoke of the "well-perfumed" lawyers
"out of Portlnnd," and stated that he
"wouldn't foller the gold standard." He
suggested the advisability of the United
States declaring for the free coinage
of allver and explained how all the
nations of the earth would come around
to us. John H. Mitchell Is eating crow
all over the state, he said, and Oregon
will roll up a tremendous majority for
Bryan. Linn county Is good for 1200
majority. Bryan will carry Indiana,
Illinois and Ohio. Then he aald some
thing real funny.
"We need a Moaes to lead us out of
the wilderness and we have found him
In the young lion from Nebraska."
It seemed rather strange that that
lion should have swallowed this par
ticular Moses, but the speaker probably
knew what he was talking about.
Soon after Mr. Miller concluded his re
marks and ex-Governor Pennoyer was
Introduced. He was given a hearty
ovation aa he came upon the platform.
His address waa a manly effort and
lacked that violence usually attributed
to him. He spoke slowly and deliber
ately and kept his audience deeply In
terested. He waa frequently Interrupt
ed by outbursts of applause. Mayor
Pennoyer said:
'Ladles and Gentlemen: I came to
your city to address one meeting, not
two. However, the circumstances but
serve to demonstrate your enthusiasm.
I wish to extend my thanks to a young
lady I, do not know her name who
has been so kind ns to present me with
a bouquet containing sixteen white
flowers and one red one. I greatly ap
preciate this token.
"The Oregonlan has stated that I met
with a frost In Eastern Oregon. Now,
that Is not the fact. At Baker I ad
dressed more people than Senator
Mitchell did, and our procession was

when one wants gold, he must take
those notes to the banks and pay what
ever premium the banker may choose
to demand. The scheme is one of the
bankers to place the people In thefr

and makes silver full legal tender, there
will be no such thing as a 53-cent dol

Mayor Pennoycr, In his address to the
overflow meeting, made practically the
same arguments that he did down stairs
but among other things arraigned H.W.
Corbet t and the First National Bank.
He said In part:
"They tell us we have plenty of mon
ey and all we need Is confidence. I say
the best way to get confidence Is to get
silver coined, and if we don't get It we
can't have confidence. Here la Mr.
Corbett ventilating the matter on the
first page of the Oregonlan the other
day. Six weeks ago they did not have
any money In Tortland banks for ordi
nary business. The fact of the matter
Is this: The sworn statement on the
first day of July last, of the First Na
tional Bank of Portland, which Is the
most solvent and the strongest bank In
Portland, showed that after deducting
the money due Uncle Sam, that bank
had less than J100.000 with which to
moet :i.OOO,000 of deposits! Now they
have loaded up with money, but they
were mighty near a collapse, and lot
mo tell you now that the statement
shows they have only got about thirty
throe per cent on hand now. Now this
Is the sound money scheme."

ChlcaKO, October H. A rle of over
a tent wa chronicled In the price of

and one did nut have much difficulty In
liiKllnir an explanation of It. The op';n
In quotation from Liverpool waa at 2d
er n-ntal advance for iipot wheat, and
Id per cmul fur future. A private
mewaBe from Liverpool stated that
mlllinB- wa quiet and checked by the
advance, hut this had no effect and,
In fact, waa not borne out by the
I aiapori iiiiiiori. j ne inurnn crop pro-
pet la (trowing more aerloua, causing
an Increasing nervous apprehension in
(.ireat firltaln, and even In Argentine
there Is an Increasing danger of crop
destruction. The opening price for De
cember was 7lVQ71c. After touching
for an Instant, the selling referred
to broke the price and gradually a de
cline to Tl'i took place. Then the ra-
ural buoyancy of ;he market re-exerted
Itself and by non December had re
covered to 7.'c. Another bull factor waa
the llht northwest receipts.
The tan Francisco market was quot
ed 4c per cental higher early In the day
and reports froi.i there tald two more
carries hail been worked off for Indlna.
New York wired that all the wheat
offered to the other side had been ac
ccpti-d. New York reported sales for
extiort of fortv boatloads ttM.OOO bush.

Tll(, market was rather nervous dur-
mf the closing hour, but was steadily
supported, and December w heat closed
firm at 71 "c. "
Pendleton. October H Wheat has
been good property here for two days
past. The First National Bank of Pn
dleton has sold ISO. 0iX bushels on a basis
of 30 cents for No. I club, and 52 for No.
1 bluestem. Some other holders have
received 50 cents for No. 2 club. Besides
the bank, holders all over the county
have let go and probably no less than
300,000 bushels were sold during Wed
nesday and Thursday and 100.000 today.
One prominent wheat buytr said today
he thought nine-tenths of the wheat of
I'matllla county had changed hands
this week. A year ago few farmers re
ceived any benefit from the rise in the
market, as their wheat had all been
sold. This year but few have sold and
not a bushel of No. 2 is known to have
been sold for less than 40 cents at any
time during the season.
Late deals this afternoon were on a
basis of several cents advance over
the prices which ruled during the day,
bringing quotations up to 54 for club
and ."6 for bluestem No. 1. The ten
dency on the part of many holders Is
to wait for bigger prices than have yet
been offered. There is considerable lo-
cul excitement and the news from other
points Is anxiously looked for.
San Francisco, October 16. Today's
sessions of the San Francisco produce
exchange were the liveliest seen in
many a day. The greatest excitement
prevailed and bidding was exceedingly
spirited. May and December wheat
each closed 6 points higher than on
yesterday, reaching the highest figures
quoted for three years, A majority of
the call board men were long on wheat
and are enthusiastically confident of a
continued advance in prices. At the
close of the noon session. December
wheat was quoted at J1.41H and May
at J1.441. At the afternoon session
there was a drop In the market, and at
closing December was tl.40, and May
H.42T.
Portland. Oct. 16. Wheat Is being
rushed into this city from east of the
mountains and the Willamette valley at
the rate of 150 to 200 carloads per day.
Sales In the Palous country and in the
vicinity of Moscow, Idaho, have been
very heavy the last tw o or three days.
BRADSTREET'S REPORT.
The Advance In Wheat and McKinley's
Prospects Improve the Business
Outlook.
New Tork, October 16. Bradstreet's
tomorrow will say:
While the volume of general trade
was not Increased materially, new con
ditions are favorable to an early Im
provement, notwithstanding that many
Interior merchants prefer to wait until
after election before placing orders, and
others are willing to order only subject
to cancellation should the movement for
free coinage of silver be successful.
Some of the larger business centers re
gard the. success of the campaign for
bound money as secured. In some in
stances merchants are discounting that
view of the situation by placing new
orders. The features of the business
week are the advance in the price and
strength of wheat and the maintenance
of a volume of whet exports, notably
to India and Australia. While word Is !
no higher. Its holders have sold enough
to render them Indifferent to imme.ll- i
ate business, and they are holding '
sto. ks for full figures. j
On the I'acifiiic coast trade has been I
stimulated by the advance in the price To Address the Waye Earner of Bal
of wheat and the continued activity of , iiM, , !, ,
xports of lumber and other staples, no-
tably to Japan, Australia, Bouth Africa
and India.
The total number of business failures
reported throughout the United States '
Is 279, 12 less than a week ago, 10 leas '
than In the second week of October,
but 26 more than the correspond- I
Ing week of 1HD4. As compared with
I he second week of October, W3, this
week's totals show a decline of 61. !
There were 30 business failures re-i
ported In Canada this week, against 37 I
last week.
A NEW DEPARTURE.

action the International union claimed
con'.rol only over operators of linotype
machines, leaving the repairing of raa -
chinas when out of order to the linotype
engineers, a seceding organization from
the International Association of Ma-
chlnlsts. This seceding organisation
asked admission today Into the Interna -
tlonal Typographical Union, but after
a strong fight, was refused, thus barr -
Ing its members altogether from offices
where linotype machines are used. The
work of repairing and taking care of
type setting machines will now be done
only by printers who are members of
the typographical union.
Thousands of printers were thrown
out of employment by the Introduction
of typesetting machines several years
ago. and the action taken today by the
International union Is alined to create a

DRIED FRUITS GO UP.
Short Crop and Rush of Purchasers
Send Prices Up.
San Francisco, October 16. Nearly as
much money Is being made In dried
fruit as in wheat. The advance In one
case Is as great as the other, and for-
tunes are being realized by happy
holders. The deficiency In supply Is
the cause. The shortage was anticipat-
ed by local Jobbers, but the amount on j
hand is even less than they expected, j
During the earlier part of the season j
Eastern buyers were Incredulous as to '
tha R,nA..il ..H .(...,.,,. TV V. . ....
J
no disposition to buy and the result is'
.. . .w v u . . v. , :
that they have had to pay higher for
fruit to the profit of the California i
packers. Since then there has been a
rush of a large portion of this class of
custom to obtain supplies. Meanwhile
stocks have been materially reduced
and when the dealers of the middle
states who are holding off until after
election to purchase, are ready to buy,
the Indications are there will not be
. ,
much California dried fruit left to buy.
YOUTHFUL STRIKERS.
The Newsboys of San Francisco Boy-
cott the Evening Papers.
San Francisco,-October 16. The boy-
cott of the afternoon papers by the
newsboys is still In force and not a pa-
per was sold on the streets of San
Francisco today except the Oakland !
Tribune. A few rash youths attempt-
ed to sell San Francisco papers but the
strikers quickly spotted them and put J
them to flight. Newspaper proprietors
say that the custom of taking back un-
sold papers from boys Is obsolete In
every city except San Francisco and
they see no reason why they should con-
tlnue to do It. The boys say they will
not allow an evening paper to be sold
until their demands are granted.

After three cheers had been given the
