GREAT SPEECHES.
BRYAN STIRS UP THE NEW
WORKERS.
Carrying the War Into the Enc

A Speech Bristlng With Telling Points Which
Were Received With Wild Cheering.

meeting, which did not end
until half an hour beyond mid
night, and after hurried breakfast,
he and Mrs. Bryan boarded the local
passenger train, which left Utica at 7:15.
There was no parlor car on the train,i and
they took seats in the common coach,
where the passengers crowded about
them for handshakes and autographs.
Mr.. Bryan had little to say about the
dinner with Senator Hill, which was un-
doubtedly one of the most important
events of his new York tour. 1T was a
purely social affair."" he said to repre-
sentative of the Associated Press
Although the absence of Senator Hill
from the political meeting which follow
ed the dinner was commented upon, the
remark made by the candidate in his
Albany speech, when free from Wolfert' S
Roose, that the support of the Democrats
who did not indorse every plank of the
platform was expected, was commented
upon as significant. There is general
impression among those with the candl-
date that he received assurances that
Senator Hill would declare for the ticket.
Two or three cross road stations were
passed without any demonstration at the
early hour, but at Rome there were 300
people, to whom the candidate spoke.
SPEECH AT ROME.
He said: II do not suppose the train
will stop long enough for me to say any
thing to you. But imagine from what
can see that you are not afraid OF being
overwhelmed with flood of money.
Some of your opponents tell us that If we
have free coinage of silver we will have
so much money that we wouldn't know
what to do with it. Then again, they tell
us that the gold of the country would go
out of circulation, and that we would not
be able to coin enough silver for our use.
1t rather amuses me that they expect the
people to believe this, because there are
lots of towns in this country that would
not object to the locating of minis in
their midst. We do not believe that the
free coinage of silver would do it. We be-
lieve that the free coinage of silver will
bring gold to this country, and that, too,
without the aid of syndicates."
In Hanover Square, Syracuse, 5000
people gathered to hear Mr.. Bryan. Mrs.
Bryan, exhausted by the excitement and
the journey of the previous day, remain
ed in her room at the Yates Hotel almost
all the time, trying to hear from there
her husband speak. Mr.. Bryan said:
ADDRESS AT SYRACUSE.
"Mr. Chairman and Fellow Citizens:
In this land of ours, where the govern
ment derives it's just powers from the
consent of the governed, and where the
official for only short time exercises
any authority in law, it is only fair that
those who are to choose by the ballot
should be permitted to come in contact
with those who are candidates for sc
high position, and as in this campaign
it is very difficult for all of our people
to find the necessary money, either gold
or silver, to visit the candidates, ]
thought it might be worth while for the
candidate to visit the people.
Then, too, I thought it might be well
for one who is accused of being the can
didate of body of anarchists to show
himself in order that you may judge
whether he looks like one who is bent
upon destroying the government under
which he lives. l believe, my friends
there is no one in this land who is more
in love with our institutions than l.
glory in the liberty Of our people and
glory in the opportunities which our
nation presents to very citizen and tC
the children of all who live beneath ou1
flag.
I'm this land, as in no other land, we
can say to our children, whatever be oul
walk in life, whether we be rich or poor
whether we stand among the known OF
the unknown, we can say to our children
All the avenues of industry are open to
you if you can prevent the trusts from
closing these avenues; and all the honors
that are in the hands of the people are
before you If you can have it understood
that the people have a right to choose
their officials, and not the corporations
and the syndicates.'
THE CHARGE OF ANARCHY.
Our opponents-I do not mean the lit
tie ones, who stand about sometimes up.
On the street corners in the hope of some
petty Office, and find fault with those who
are candidates-but mean some of the
conspicuous opponents whom we meet in
this campaign, who declared openly and
publicly that they must exert themselves
to keep anarchy and socialism from
dominating in the United States, l want
to assure you my friends, that the peo-
pie who are opposing the success of the
ticket nominated at Chicago are not do
chy, such as they speak of, will be trium-
plant, but it is becuse they know that
the Chicago platform aims it's blows al
the real enemies of this country, those
who think they are greater than the gov
eminent, and can make the government
their instrument for private gain. Tire
mendous applause.) Let me tell you why
they call us anarchists. Mr.. Carlisle
when a member of congress in 1878, used
these words, which I shall read to you:
Our power of legislation over this sub
ject will not be exhausted by the passage
of this measure, and we ought not to halt
for a single moment in our efforts to
complete the work of relief inaugurated
by it. The struggle now going on can
not cease until all the Industrial interests
of the country are fully and finally eman-
cipated from the heartless domination OF
syndicates, stock exchanges, and other
great combinations of money grabbers in
this country and in Europe applause. J
and cheers.
THAT is the language of John G.. Car
Isle in 1873. We stand today where he
stood then, and we intend to complete
the work which we begun. (Great ap-
plause.)
Show me a man who is interested in
the stock exchanges, in the syndicates
and in the great com limitations of money
grabbing, in this country, and in Europe
and will show you a man who is oppos-
ed to the Chicago ticket. and will show
you man who charges us with being an
archists. applause and laughter.) ]
