The Chautauqua Auditorium contained almost as many people Tuesday night as sembled to hear the silver Republican speaker, Col. Frank V. Drake of Portland, as appeared in the same place in the after noon to listen to Senator Mitchell. There were more voters present and many ladies too. Col. Drake was introduced by M. F. Eggleston as a man who had always been a Republican and a good silver man and was still so. He was one of probably a million men who had walked out of the old Republican organization with that grand old man, Henry M. Teller. Col. Drake was given a cordial greeting. He talked for quite two hours and held the interest of his audience closely as he lead them step by step along the hopeful lines of a policy independent of foreign dictation which ought to govern our financial as well as our industrial an<l domestic affairs. Indeed the monev question in the speaker’s view was purely a domestic affair. The Colonei gave a brief resume of the history of t e Republican party, showing that it bad abandoned its honorable traditions, prin ciples, and character and bad consequently taken on new leaders. It was charged that the Democratic party had done nothing for silver but while John Sherman was utilizing every resource in the* interest of gold inonometalism, he could net forget old “Silver Dick” Bland of Missouri with his silver cohorts always in the saddle and on picket duty to appt ise the people ofthe ap proach of the enemy and guard them as far as practicable» The inconsistency of repub lican leaders who bad heretofore stood for independent laimetalism and were now crying out for McKinlev was thoroughly exposed and interspersed with occasional and telling humorous stories which threw the crowd into roars of laughter. Some ot them will be recollected a long time. The speaker gave a lucid explanation of the money question and in the course of bis re marks drew out the great principles at is sue between labor and capital which he well understands, cot failing to point out that Lincoln's view a« to labor and capital had beeD reversed. Lincoln had put labor before capital as labor was the creator but now the gold-bugs had the idea that capital was the parent and dictator ot labor. The silver men were delighted with the closing of the "lay’s debate feeling that they had lost nothing and probably bad gained sub stantial advantages. The gold men haye been gathering about in small groups since Tuesday discussing the outlook with the hope of rendering one to the other some grain of consolation but it seems to be a case of Rachel weeping and would not be comforted.
