iastic as ever and Just as ready to
lay the cause OF an earthquake in Cey-
lon Mt Democracy's door. They were
rather late In organizing the ball yes
terday, and Il was fully 10 o'clock when
Mr.. T. p. Gore OF Jackson. Miss. was
introduced and began his TRADE
against Democracy. Mr.. Gore is quite
a young man and is totally blind, es-
pecially to the virtue OF Democracy.
He Is a rather forcible speaker. how
ever. and kept those around him con-
tinuously applaudlng the points made
against the Democratic party. Not
word was said against the cause OF
the existing conditions. and no blame
whatever was attached TO that on
spring OF rot and ruin characterized as
Repubiicanism. and which in thirty
years of vicious class legislation pro-
duced a cancerous growth which the
three party folks think they are able TO
cure IN n week. The leading text OF
MIR Cores speech was less taxes,
more money and no monopoly" Upon
these three phrases he founded n rhe-
toricM structure which the Pope
think will stand any storm Democracy
can raise.
TarIn and Finance.
He devoted the greater part OF his
speech TO the tariff and finance quea-
tions. and thrashed old straw with
vigorous hand. Once In adjusting the
table before him he turned over a glass
OF water upon a copy OF the wilson
hill and holding II up TO the gaze OF
those before him, said; II have given
this Wilson bill a bnptiaing but In
stead Of being In the name OF the
father, son and the holy ghost It Is In
the name Of Grover Sherman, John
cleveland and Biil Mckinley"
This was considered the acme OF
humor by those listening and was
greeted with loud applause. He also
laid great stress upon the fact that
ever since the war the Democratic
party had been calling tarln reform
the great paramount issue, and been
contcndtnB for los contamination, and
then he said, After they had come IN
power what have they done Placed

This was the signal FOR another
rousor. ard right wen did his hearers
do their part.
Democracy Is slow.
He then quoted from utterance from
Tom johnson, Senators Voorhees, and
Mills. and gave their opinion OF the
pending BIN
lie said Tom Johnson said II was
wrong in principle. wrong In action
and was a Republican outcome. from
men who claimed allegiance to De-
mncracy, and that Senators Mills and
Voorhees, said II lacked n heap OF being
what was needed. but was n step in the
right direction.
lie then asked another question;
''If II required thirty years Tor the
