Washington, D. c., Aug 13.-
Chairman Faulkner of the Demo
cratic national committee returned
today from New York, where he
took part in the Bryan meeting last
night. 1T was the most remarkable
outpouring have ever seen," said
he. "The people were not drawn
by fireworks or any of the accessor-
les which usually attract a crowd.
They came to hear Bryan and his
cause. It was noticeable that when
the candidate laid aside his manu-
script and addressed the open air
meeting there was wave of that
same enthusiasm shown at Chicago
The speech of acceptance is an able
and scholarly treatment of the sub
ject and it will prove one Of the
most valuable of campaign docu.
ments. 1t is a document which cir,
culates itself and does not need a
frank, for the press of the entire
country prints it The demand for
the Bryan Chicago speech is unpre.
cedented. I received a telegraphic
request from San Francisco for 300,.
900 copies. It was impossible to
supply them, so I sent revised
copy of the speech and notified them
to print the 100000 in San Francisco
saving the freight. I anticipate
quite as heavy a demand for the
speech of last night"
The Rev. Sam Small, the evange
list, was one of Mr.. Faulkner's call
ers today, and he offered his services
for Bryan speeches during October
Mr.. Small has been through Kansas
Nebraska and Illinois, and declares
there is a veritable silver tidal wave
in those sections. On August q
Mr.. Small will have a joint debate
with VIM. E. Mason of Chicago. Mr.
Faulkner received word from ". T

Kentucky could be depended upo,
to give the "old time-majority TO
the Democratic ticket"
Chairman Faulkner is not so San
guine since his visit to New Yorl
that the national committee head
quarters will be located there. h
says Mr.. Bryan is strongly in favo
of Chicago, and that there is o
course, a disposition to follow tn
views of the candidate. The vie'

Inferred in the Oak Hill cemetery at Butler
Little Walter has gone from among us,
His spirit obeyed Gods will;
And vacant place is left in our hearth,
This world can never ILL.,
HIS cloth es are gently laid away,
In his buggy by his chair,
sadly we miss the little form
And his prattle upon our ears.
We gather to eat our daily meals,
But cannot see him there:
We turn to the door to the open air.
His voice we cannot hear
We go to his bed for good night kis.
But turn in deep despair,
We ask of Jesus on bended knees
He points to Heaven-you II find him there
Greve not for little Walter,
Thoug he is sadly missed;
He is anchored safe in better world,
Far happier that this.
HI has past away from this sinful world
TO that happy land SO fair,
He will never more feel sickness nor pain
And death cannot enter there.
Joyous little sunbeam
Has slipped from our tender care,
1t has gone to shine in heaven pure light
And dwell with Jesus there.
May we sometime meet our darling
Is our constant prayer to-day,
Then we shall dwell in angel form.
And not this house of clay.
lovely little angel
At the pearly gates 70 fair,
Says father, mother, sister, brother,
Through Christ you can meet me there.
Joyful, sweet will the meeting be,
When from this sinful world we flee.
And join the loved ones in heaven above,
Where God regns forever with purest love

j. H. Huling could have been nom
mated for congress by acclamation,
but after the adjournment of con
gress he came home looked over the
field, snd declared the situation
hopeless, if the republicans declared
against free silver. He accordingly
refused to allow the use of his name.
He was elected by 4,01S in 1894, but
he declared that the silver sentiment
had drawn so many votes from the
party since then that he could not
accept the nomination. Huling
is not alone in this belief, for no re
publican in the district could be in,
duced to make the race, and the
nomination was given to G. p. Darr,
man who left the democracy in
1892, and who has no standing in
the republican party.
From st. Charles, Mo-, comes the
word that republicans all over the
county are coming out for Bryan
and free silver. Capt. John P, Col
Inns, leader is one. At Hamburg

bers who have always voted the re-
publican ticket. The work is going
on rapidly among the Germans.

County Republican has abandoned

party has gone over to silver, includ-

Kansas City Times.
The Hanna organs and orators
,rs developing the deepest concern
for the workingman. For the first
Time in four years he has become
The idol of their hearts, the center
and source of all their solicitude.
From their coupon clipping, their
money.shaving, their bond-jobbing
operations, these Hannaites are
turning aside daily in order to warn
the man who labors on the railroad,
in the store, the mine, the factory,
the shop, that if Bryan is elected
bis wages will be cut in two and that
biz dinner pail will 60 empty. How
much effect the eleventh hour sym.
pathy is having on the men whom it
is intended to gull is shown by the
fact that of all the labor papers of
the United States not one is for
Hanna and Mckinley. There is
not single labor leader of national
influence who does not speak for the
cause Of democracy as the hope OF
the wage. workers.
The New York journal, which has
thoroughly examined the attitude OF
the labor papers and labor leaders
toward the gold standard crowd,
ssye:
"Some labor papers have thus far
remained non -committal, as it is the
avowed policy of a few such journals
and of certain labor organizations
to reserve political action to the in
dividual. But all of the other labor
papers, except these few, are openly
for the democratic candidates ane
the democratic platform"
The utterances Of the masses o
these papers are extremely hostil'
to the Mckinley ticket and platform
The following extract from tn
Knights of Labor journal, the officia
organ of the order, will serve t.
show the general trend Of opinion
among the workingmen on thss
matters:
"Bryan is the man of the hour

the occasion. Bryan's whole cours
as a politician has been clean, cor
sistent, forceful manly. There ar
no dubious utterances of his to el

chief issues has been long and de-
