New York nnd Chicago has asked him
to mako a stop.and without exception
the Invitations camp from Democratic
leaders. Bryan snowed no surprise
till morning at the stories that the
New York state organizations had de
cided to support him. Ho did reflect
a little bit upon tho statement that
Senator Hill had told Danforth that
lie would support and work for him
(Bryan). He said In relation to that
questien:
"It Is not Senator Hill's qustom to
speak through others, und I doubt If
Mr. Danforth gave out a statement!
purporting to bo made by Senator
Hill. The senator will probably mako
lil own announcement."

over. The receipt of a letter from Leader

to speak In New York, added another
chain to the circumstances leading
up to proof of n thorough understand
ing between Bryan and the New York
nomocracy.
The published statement that

hnn's and Tammany's course In In
dorsing Uryan caused the candidate a

"Coming from tho farm, I am glad
to say 1 do not know all about this
question. A great many boforo mo
probably differ from my views, I do
not feel that It Is necessary to abuse
anyone." " A Democrat had asked him
11 he would treat htm well'lf ho came.
Or courso ho would. Our pockets wero
touched. Wo want n remedy nnd wo
want It now. Let us got nt tho bot
tom facts.
TALKS AIIOUT MONUY.
Times began to get hard with tho
advent of the Populist party in this
country. They mndo 11 concerted at
tack on a certain class of our people
the class who had tho wealth, tho
money, tho bankers, tho millionaires,
tho plutocrats, tho goldbugs. What
was complained of? Money wns not lu
circulation. Wo could only got it from
those who had It. Wo can't get It
rrom pcoplo who haven't got It. Tho
rich always havo tho money. Tho
money Is never In tho hands of tho
poor. Unless those who opposed tho
Republican party changed tholr tac
tics, and quit lighting tho only mon
who had money, we could got no ro
ller rrom making war on tho rich.
Times wore good about 1802, nnd
changed to tho worso with tho advent
or tho Democratic party under tho
Cleveland administration.
But now to change from tho Demo-'
cratlo to tho Populist party wus like
changing rrom a man who had Just
got out of tho penitentiary ror theft
to ono that was' Indicted for murder In
the first degree. Mr, Gecr repented
his argument that tho silver question
was not the issuo In 1802 but that tho
tariff question wns tho paramount
question now. In 1802 thoro wero $45,
000,000 more of farm productsexportcd
than tho year boforo. Ho would not
dodge tho ilnanclal Issue. Ho was sur
prised at tho amount of education tho
