nounced to speak at the acre at
o'clock yesterday, and about two hun
dred persons gathered there at that
time. and for an nour and a half lis
tened respectfully to his ingenious
web of fact and falsehood. The bur =
den of his harangue was the money
question and government ownership
of railroads, as might have been eX-

he handled millions and billions made
some Of his hearers wonder where the
