there lie no telling how many we will have You
Know Jim lie prolific fellow and when he gets
down in that old Sixth district where Major
Lacey defeated him so handsomely, he goes
around and tries to hatch up new party. He
Ia at 1t all Of the time. He has got new party
here, which Mr.. Van Wyck, of Nebraska, talked

Prohibition party. Let me say this thing about
the Prohibition party: II any temperance man

and these temperance men in the name of jus

should stand with us to every man, woman and
child. Applause Now, about this Weaver
Jim Weaver is the mother and Donnelly is the
wet nurse. Laughter. What part old Van
WICK performs do not know. He stood BY

Nebraska got tired Of old Van and then the
200 old fellow got tired of the Republican

EVERY FELLOW CANNOT HAVE PARTY
In this country. There are lots of big, husky
fellows here but there are none Of you big
enough to be party all by yourselves. We
have to work through parties In this republic
There Is no other way, and we have to pick out
the party that comes nearest representing US
and our views. Now, II the Democratic party
comes nearest your views, stand by them. II
the Republican party does, stand BY 1t, but

TRYING TO MAKE THE FARMERS BELIEVE
that the Republican party is not true TO them
If it were not for the Republican party We

great prsiries OF Iowa to-day. "a friend OF
monopolies,n says, Van Wyck: "Owned by
monopolies," says Weaver. 1.-The creature Of
monopoly" says Donr ely 1t is false The
Republican party has never failed to throttle
monopolies when IL could get its hands at their
throats. They talk about trusts. You heard
about trusts yesterday afternoon. Jim Weaver
