REED IN CHICAGO.
Crowded With Enthusi-
aStic Audience.

Chicago, Oct. 19.-Hon. Thomas b. ReeC
this afternoon addressed an audience that
filed the Auditorium from bottom to top
Even then the aislcs were jammed full
Of people unable to get seats, and outside
the tiieatcr was another crowd clamoring
for admission.
After medley of patriotic airs played
on the immense organ, and several Sc
lcCtiOns by u campaign Glee club, Mr..
Reed entered and was greeted with loud
applause and cheers, several times re-
peated, one enthusiast shouting, DO you
think there is quorum present. which
was greeted with general laughter.
Mr.. Reed was introduced by George K
Peck and made a characteristic speech,
frequently interrupted by enthusiastic
demonstrations of approval. While his
sallies of wit received equally hearty
laughter.
MIR. Reed said i'll part: at is proposed
TO change the currency OF this country
not to change it little, but to change it
seriously. 1t is claimed this change will
he for tile country's benefit But, sinCu-
lariy enough, tie gentlemen who propose
the change never say how it will benefit
the country. TEey only say, We believe
so and so will happen We believe is a
very good foundation for theology. 1t is
very we'll when We are not gong to lc.t
1t Til the next world. But in the world
OF business we believe is worth nothing
IF there is a man in this audience
who has been lucky enough to have ed
a debt ever since the crime of 1873 1
would like TO see him. Does he intend to
take advanta &c OF tie whole of the dcprecia-
tion of silver since that time, or only a
quarter OF that time, if he has owed
debt for quarter of that time?
The fact is that the average debt is
less than three years standing. l presume
tnat some or you gentlemen i'll this audience
have $40. Probably several of you have
SO. Now, suppose man should come
10 you and try to borrow that $40, and
you knew lie would do his utmost to pay
sou back with 50.
What would you do? You would be ant
tochargc so per cent for risk and about 10
per cent for incidentalS and lend him $4,
taking his note for $40. OF course you
would have to lend it to him. Now do you
think that the foreigner has less sense than
you? Do you think that the man who has
500 has less sense than you?
Gcntlcmcn of the West, / am glad to
See by your aptitude that you are going
TO allow MS OF the East to agree with you
on tie subject OF finance. This world is
Soou Tor nothing except when on the up
grade. Civilization must be on the up-
grade. Let tue people put down those men
