estly earned 1 repeat his language
with unqualified approval
We are not surprised to find arrayed
against US those who are the benef-
Charles of Government favoritism; they
have read our platform. Nor are we
surprised to learn that we must in this
campaign face the hostility of those who
find pecuniary advantage in advocat-
ing the doctrine of non-interference
when great aggregations of wealth are
trespassing upon the rights of indi-
Viduals. We welcome such opposition.
Ii is the highest Endorsement which
could be bestowed upon us Those who
stand upon the Chicago platform be-
lieve that the Government should not
only avoid wrong doing, but that it
should also prevent wrong doing; and
they believe that the law should be en-
forced alike against all enemies of the
public veal.
The Chicago platform has been con-
demned by some because it dissents
from an opinion rendered by the Su-
preme Court declaring the income tax
unconstitutional. Our critics even go so
far as to apply the name of anarchist
to those who stand upon that plank of
the platform. 1t must be remembered
that we expressly recognize the binding
force of that decision SO long as it
stands as the part of the law of the
land. There is in the platform no sug-
gestion of an attempt to dispute the
authority of the Supreme Court. The
party is simply pledged to use all the
constitutional power which remains
after that decision or which may come
from its reversal by the court as it may
hereafter be constituted. Is there any
disloyalty in that pledge? For a hun
dred years the Supreme Court of the
United States has sustained the prin-
csple which underlies the income tax.
Some twenty years ago this same court
sustained without a dissenting voice an
income tax almost identical with the
one recently overthrown. Has not a
future court as much right to return to
the judicial precedents of a century as
the present court had to depart from
them? When courts allow rehearings,
they admit that error is possible. The
late decision against the income tax
was rendered by majority of one after
a rehearing.
WI hile the money question overshad-
ows all other questions in Importance, I
desire it distinctly understood that l

stepped forward and introduced Mr..
Bryan. There was demonstration that
far exceeded anything before it, The
scene presented was strongly reminis-
cent of the tumult that ragged in the
Coliseum at Chicago when Bryan fin
ished the effort preceding his nomina-
ton. Men and women rose to their feet
and cheered. On the platform, in the
boxes, UP in the galleries, people were
shouting like mad. Men waved their
coats and their hats, while women fiut-
tered fans and handkerchiefs The
band struck up lively air and added to
the din.
Mr.. Bryan held up his hand for 81
lence. 1t was like an incentive to yell
louder. The crowd would not be
thwarted. Finally Mr.. Bryan sat down
Wearily, but in a second jumped up
again with hand upraised for silence.
The shouters were getting weary by this
time, but the restraining hand made
them take a last lease on their efforts.
Senator Jones shouted: II appeal to
this crowd to be in order" But he
was not listened to, and the crowd did
net cease until it felt like it,
Mr.. Bryan rose and stepped to the
front and center of the speakers plat
form. In his hand he had manuscript
copy of his speech. His face was pale,
but he was cool and calm. After several
attempts, interrupted by SpaSms of en-
thusiasm on the part of the audience,
Mr. Bryan began in earnest His voice
was firm, but showed signs of hoarse-
ness. He read from manuscript but
occasionally dropped the sheets of paper
ard spoke earnestly and vehemently
without looking at them.
During Mr.. Bryans speech he was
frequently interrupted by cheers and
applause. His reference to the income
tax was loudly cheered, as also was his
reference to the sale of bonds. The
audience also manifested its approval
at various stages of the free silver ar
gGment. When some of the more tell
ing poins in this discussion We're reachs-
ed the audience yelled with all its might
and the speaker was compelled to stop
until order was restored. When in con-
clusion Mr.. Bryan said he expected the
cooperation of all present a voice cried:
You have it, And the audience again
rOared in unison.
