Union Park race course had a great
crowd inside the enclosure when Mr..
Bryan arrived at Saginaw today. The
grand stand was filed and the track
Immediately in front was one dense
tnrong. They were packed in so tight
ly that several women tainted and
were passed out over the heads of the
assemblage. It was an enthusiastic
audience and Mr.. Bryan's speech was
punctuated with applause and cheers.
He discussed the money issue in much
the same manner as before; defended
that plank in the Democratic platform
declaring for the income tax by QUOT
ing from the dissenting opinion of
Justice Brown and said that before
he could be declared anarchist. an
anarchistic badge would have to be
pinned on the coat of one of the Judges
OF the supreme court. The quotations
were:
For while have no doubt that congress will
find some means Of surmounting the present
crisis my fear is that in some moments of
nauonal peril this decision will rise I'D to
Illustrate its will and paralyze it's ARM Now
remember these words which 1 am about to
read: Il hope 1t may not prove the first
step towards the submergence of the liberties
OF the people in sordd despotism of wealth.
My friends, 1t was Republican who said
that, a judge of the supreme court of the
I indorse what that Republican Judge said,
and think, my friends that the policy that
lies behind that decision means submerg-
ence of our liberties in sordid despotism Of
wealth And before anybody calls me an
anarchist for believing that I want him to
take an anarchists badge and pin 1t on Jus

not escape the conviction that the decision
Of the court in this great case is fraught with
Unreasonable danger to the future of the
country and that it approaches the proper
lions of a national calamity, 1 feel it duty
to enter my protest against. it.. That it
approaches the proportions Of a national ca
lamity that it is fraught with immeasurable
danger to the future of the country-that is
what your Republican Judge said and yet in
the presence Of this language that 1t ap-
proacheS the proportions of a national calam-
ity we are told that we must keep silent And
who says so?
The men who ought to be paying their
taxes and supporting the government want
the poor people of the United States to do it
for them. Not only that, but the men who
condemn the decision are not honest enough
to tell you that they oppose our position be-
cause they don't want to pay their taxes.
My friends, / have not hesitated to express
my opinion of the man who wants this gov
eminent to protect him, and does not want
to pay his share to support that government.
1 have said that the man who wants the
protection of this government, and yet is
not willing to pay his share Of the taxes, does
not deserve to live in government like
this. Show man who is alarmed for
fear the supreme court is being attacked,
and / will show you a man who belongs to
that class OF citizens who have their prop
erty assessed for taxation in a less proper
ton to its value than the poor man who has
to pay his taxes on his home.
Voice-How about free trade"
Mr.. Bryan-Free trade? Did you say that?
Oaughter) Do you believe in protection?
A Voice. don't know.
Mr.. Bryan-Wel, if you don't know you are
mighty good to be at this meeting, my
friends But 1 will tell you about the tariff
question. If the men who want protection
will join with me in putting a prohibitive
duty on foreign financial policies 1 will dis
cuss the rest of the tariff schedule with them.
Or 1 will tell you If they are not willing to
do that, 1 will wait until after they settle the
money question by international agreement
and then we will submit the tariff question
to international agreement. In this campaign

if reformer like John G. Carlisle can help
elect Republican like Mr. Mckinley and
when that is possible then the protectionists
and tariff reformers who believe in free silver
can unite and settle the money question and
We will settle the tariff question afterwards
Now, my friends, if you want relief you have
got to elect

going to do
Mr.. Bryan-Of course you'll do that NV
friends l was not meaning to express anv
doubt on that subject. But say that if vol,

that the three branches of government iojn
