Senator Kyle, of South Dakota, who
was to have delivered the response, was
kept In Washington by the vote on the
silver question, and his place was ably
filed by Ben H. Terrell, Of Texas, who
was introduced as che "hOro Of the ALI
ance movement from It's earliest days."
This address, though impromptu, was
enthusiastically received, especially when
Texas was pledged to vote for the prIncl-

and when the delegates were vouched
for as needing no police to keep them
straight during their stay In Omaha.

OMAHA, Neb., S Saturday, July 2
The Omaha convention is grand OBJ
ject lesson of reform presented to the
thinking people of the United States.
Judging from the earnestnesS and
thoughtful determination everywhere
displayed among the delegates, the lesson
will help many lover of his country to
take a new stand politically for justice
and equality.
For once the press association cannot
send forth false reports regarding the
reform movement without being proved
fslsiferS by thousands of witnesses.

sentative convention of the Peoples party
of the United States.
Your party represents the great wealth
producing classes of the natiOn--the farm
or, the artisan and the laborer. You are
certainly most cordially Welcome to city
that depends on the efforts of your people
for its life and prosperity; TO city chat
prospers when the farmers are rewarded for
their labOrs, and lsnguishes when crops are
short and industry fails to bring forth
bounty from our soil.
You are here TO protest against legislation
not in the interest of the people. You are
here to protest against the wealth Of the
nation being absorbed by the few, while
thousands are unemployed and many suf-
fering for the necessaries Of life You have
laid the foundation of a great party. You
have broken down the barriers of sectional
ism, buried the bitterness Of the past, ex-
tinguished the glowing embers Of the camp
fires of hate, wiped out the imaginary line
that separated the north from the south,
and with hearts filed with hope you meet
here in convention to nominate candidates
who will lead your party in the coming
campaign.
The Peoples party, if true TO it's name,
is party of the people, by the people and
for the people. That il will be the endeav-
or of the representatives here assembled to
vindicate it's name, do not doubt. That
great good may result from your deliber-
ations and actions, sincerely hope. That
you will fearlessly face the great issues of
to day, firmly believe. There are issues,
which, like the ghost of BanquO, will not
down. The silver question still remains
the great living issue, but the way IL has
been ignored, evaded and thrust aside by
both the Democratic and Republican par
ties, one might suppose It was already'set-
tied, if not dead and forgotten. But no
question is ever settled until it is settled
right. The great wrong done to the people
by the demonstration act of 1873 remains
to be righted. This can only be done by
re-endowing silver with Its true money
function, and making it, as il was intended
by the constitution, co-equal. with gold for
all money uses. II the Republicans and
Democrats refuse this, they should not
complain if the people take the matter in
their own hands. The cry Of "cheap silver"
ga dishonest dollar" or even "a sound cur
rency," will no longer deceive, neither will
dear gold, as the measure Of value. be long
or tolerated. Dear gold means cheap men,
cheap property, hard times, low wages and
general stagnation. / utter these words
not only for your consideration, but as
words Of warning TO both Republicans and
Democrats, who in the future will do well
TO heed them.

places beneath and around the stage, q
sentiment that finds an echo in every
heart.
As one meets the delegates one fact
stands out prominently-the farmers are
not alone. Many people think this great
movement for reform is simply farm
ers' movement that will speedily die
natural death. The character of the
delegates representing all classes of the
community dispell this thought. The
farmers planted the seed-thoughts Of re-
form, but all classes are busy resping
the harvest.
The convention was called to order at
Ills a. m. by H. E. Taubeneck, chairman
Of the national committee. Prayer was
offered by Rev. B. F. Dlffenbacher, Of Ne
braska, chaplain of the last Nebraska
legislature:
Infinite and All Wise Father, Thou art
God, At Thy command kingdoms nse and
empires fall. Men are the instruments of
Thy hand. We thank Thee for this day
for the present and nearing future, COM
memorstive of divine impulse moving our
fathers to improved relations for humanity
and better conditions of national life. We
thank Thee for the questioning doubt and
blessed assurance, for the calm and storm,
for the quiet and the strife that gave them
the dawn and US the day.
We thank Thee for the parties that in the
past have had their birth and accomplished
destiny great and grand.
We rejoice that Thou in wisdom dost ever
build upon the dying old the better living
new.
We thank Thee for this day-for con-
verging forces from extended borders to
this midway state and central city of i'm
perial land, representative assembly, peo-
pie, pulpit, press, with heart surcharged
with patriotic devotion to human interests.
Command we beseech Thee, oh God of
our fathers, the rich blessing of Thy love
and royal benediction of Thy peace upon
us-in council chamber, in convention hall!
Baptise US with the spirit, with truth and
righteousness, to conceive possibilities and
assume responsibilities. so that the stylus Of
future history may write the blrthright Of
this day, the greatest, grandest, most glori-
ous-for human progress-national liberty
and Thee!!! All Father, Eternal Son and
Everlasting Spirit, Amen.
The Republican mayor Of Omaha,
George P. Bemis, then made a ringing
address of welcome which met with en-
thuSiastic approval, and at its close called
forth three cheers for the speaker. 1t
certainly presented some remarkably
strong Peoples party sentiments. After
his introduction he said:
