BOSTON, Sept. 2S.-Bryan and his es-
cort had taste of the hardships of
campaigning this morning. Having left
Bath, Me-, at midnight, where there was
a scramble for sleepers, the party were
aroused from their sleep at 5 o'clock,
when Lynn was reached. The candl-
date was billed for speech at this
place and at Newburyport.
A portion of the Democratic city cam
paign committee boarded the train to
receive Mr.. Bryan, and at Lynn station
other members were waiting. The COM
nittee had provided carriages and the
party was driven to a hotel, where an
informal reception was held. Shortly
after o'clock Bryan and Sewall were
escorted to Highland square, where Mr..
Bryan spoke as follows:
Our opponents are all the time assert
ing that business men ought to take an
interest in this campaign in order to
protect their business interests. 1t has
always made me indignant that few
people in each community should as
sumo to be the only business men in it,
and should always insist upon thrust
ing their business interests forward in
preference to anybody else's business
interest I want to show you how the
money question concerns various class
es of people. Sometimes our opponents
try to array the wage earning class
against those who work in a factory
or by the day for an employer against
the farming classes.& ! want to show

terests of the wage earning classes
from the interests of the farming
classes. You do not produce shoes for
employment but for wear. People don't
wear shoes until they are able to buy
them. They cannot buy shoes unless
they have money to buy with. They
cannot get money to buy shoes until
they sell something they have got and
get that money. Now you sell shoes to
the people of the west and south If
you drive down prices of all those things
which farmers produce, so when they
sell their crops they cannot more than
pay their debts, interest and taxes, what
money will they have to buy shoes with?
Are you going to add to the prosperity
of Lynn by making more people go bare
footed? The wage-earners of Lynn
will be idle until there is a demand
for the product of the factories of
Lynn, and there can be no demand for
that product as long as you drive money
up and property down. Failing prices
mean hard times; hard times have
never been advocated in a platform by
any party, although the Republican
platform this year, without directly say
ing so, promises to continue hard times
and make them harder Do you deny
that proposition? I want you to look
at that platform. If the double stand
ard is not more desirable than the gold
standard why does the Republican par
ty want any change? If the gold stand
ard is good we ought to keep it; but
when the Republican party attempts
to get rid of it it admits it is not as
good as bimetallism. But they promise
you, Notwithstanding their desire to get
rid of the gold standard that they will
keep it until other nations help us to
get rid of It, Until then, they say, we
must maintain the gold standard.
Bryan concluded: I have been talk
Ing about that which is paramount in
this campaign, and yet l realize there
are other questions upon which the peo-
pie feel an interest. I know they are
interested IN the plank in our platform
which declares against what is known
as government by Injunction 1 know
the people are interested in that plank
"hich demands arbitratio because
while our plank is a national plank. and
is confined to arbitration between en-
ployes engaged in interstate commerce
and their employers, the Endorsement of
the principle of arbitration is an i'm
portant thing. 1t substitutes Just and
peaceable methods in the settlement of
difficulties instead of force 1 believe
as well settled in this country while we
younger men are still alive as the courts
of justice are well settled today want
q place where we can go and adjust our
differences, and let an impartial arbi-
TRAITOR decide.
Before the train left Boston a recep-
tion committee from Providence, head
ed by John Conney, secretary Of the
Democratic committee, greeted Mr.. Bry-
an and Mr.. Sewall. The train left at
o'clock and only one stop was made
This was at Mansfield, Mass, where
from the platform Mr.. Bryan shook a
few hands.
AT PROVIDENCE
Providence was reached at 1905, and
here 50-minute stop was made. There
was multitude OF people at the station
and they completely filed Exchange
