xion has been one continuous ovation. Early
this morning crowds besicged him in his
corded. From 1876 TIL noon a reception
was held at the hotel. This afternoon Mr..
Reed addressed an outdoor meeting at
which the attendance was estimated ar Is
The conditions which confront US are
serious ones. BY the last census we, as a
ration, are credited with a wealth OF S67.-
0o.eOo, 90. Where did we get it2 1t is the
results OF the industry and savings OF
D.0eo,00o people. who have NOT only saved
that vast amount, but have lived pretty
well besides. But in the past years we
have experienced what Is q new phase in
the history OF the American people. a
isrge portion OF them have been idie. Pro-
duCtion and savings by them have practi-
cally ceased. beyond immediate want OF
trade. and they have ceased TO enjoy the
comforts OF olden times. Thank God We
have accumulated enough in tslirty years
or Republican administration to stand the
reverses OF the past two years and two
more OF Grover. but we have suffered some
OF the wants OF civilization, things which
were formerly Injuries, but are now neces-
stiles. II is time to call a halt; we want
TO add to that S7. 900. 10000 instead Of eat
ing into IT,
Democratic party, and IL i should try
i don't think an Improvement could be
made on the language used by the leaders
OF the Democratic party. 1t Is a question
rather than e~pithets. We can't save the
whole ship, but we can save some OF the
wreck md we can add 10 that until we
have built a ship with bigger masts and a
stancher hull than ever sailed the ocean
before. Business needs certainty, IL is not
gambling. A new system has set in. and
business strives TO go on lines OF absolute
certainty. The present duty of the hour
Is to change the conditions with which We
are confronted. i am not going TO say who
IS the cause OF IL. / am afraid IL is be-
cause Of the foolishness OF all OF the Amer
lean people; they made a little slip and are
now being handsomely punished for IL.
Under the American Constitution We can't
have repentance at once. but the sifnif-
can't and beautiful silence of the President
Is conducive to righteousness Of itself.
The Democratic leaders do not mean
peace and quiet. Chairman Wilson says
Is just the beginning of the battle. Mr..
cleveland says they have gained a vantage
ground for q new attack Senator Mills,
from that great manufacturing State of
Texas, says they nave taken the citadel
pnd are going back for the rest OF the
Town. I dcn't defend the Senate bill. but
he difference between that and the Wilson
Pill Is great. and is a decent difference,
100. Protection to American industries
people will remedy the condition that now
,Onfronts us. We are now getting some
lessons Of experience, and If you want any
more I can tell you where you can get IL.
You wanted some of Gods arguments and
fou got them. One advantage OF the ar
guments OF experience is that you don't
forget them. The Democratic party, torn
% furnish promises. notwithstanding that
They have thousands OF notes in bank and
marked no funds they are trying to pass
Them on the American people; The RepuD-
u should nave done. but IL has given the
country its best laws, founded on the
good sense OF the American people,
Mr.. Reed spoke for Owe an hour. Other
epeakers were Congressman Henderson and
Hit. OF Illinois, and Congressman Hen
cerson. OF Iowa. +.
