Many Republicans were in the assem-

crowd. Mr.. Bryan spoke and was
warmly received by those OF his political
isith. The feature Of the Iron Mountain
relebration-if such il may bc called
was the closure OF the Chaplin mine for a
quarter of a shift. in order that the men
might see Bryan and listen 20 his argu-
ments. This was done in accordance
with an order from Mark A. Hanna, the
owner oi the mine and chairman of the
Republican National Committee. Mr..
Hanna has been caricstured during the
present campaign as a tyrant toward
