natl Enquirer. The power that could
re-establIsA silver coinage would
compel the use Of silver with gold
in the redemption Of greenbacks.
This would do away with the false
pretense that bonds must be sold
with which to buy gold to redeem
greenbacks. 1t would remove the
constant menace by the gold gang
that the legal tender quality shall
be taken away from the vast amount
OF silver dollars now in existence.
It would add enough to the money
in circulation in the country each
year to keep pace with the increase
of population and the requirements
for ldomestic exchanges. II would
make all the silver bullion IN the
world worth just as muchsas. though
it were already coipedsinto dollars.
Il would stop greeubaeks from being
presented for. redemption at the
treasury, because HeldeE0ach, lckel+
heihrer & Co. and the rest of the
breed Of gold spectators would be
offered silver when they demanded

Free coinage would guarantee the

CHAIRMAN HANNA INDIGNANT
OVER A REPORT FROM DEMO.
CRATIC HEADQUARTERS
That He Had Given Up the Election of
Mckinley - No Doubt of the
Success of the Ticket.

CHICAGO, Oct 1O.-Chairman Hanna
is highly indignant over the report re
Gently given circulation from Demo-
cratic national headquarters that he had
given up the election of Mckinley. Mr..
Hanna to-day received a letter from
California asking him if the report were
true. To the United Associated Presses
the Chairman said he bad not enough
adjectives to properly express his denial
OF the report, and he thought 1t showed
a very weak case when his opponents
had to resort to such tactics as the dis
semination Of such outrageous stories.
Mr. Hanna expressed himself as much
gratified at the sound money parade OF
yesterday "It shows said he, that
the workingmen-that Is, the intelligent,
thinking class Of them-are for Mckin-
ley and leaves no doubt as to what will
be the result in November"
The week ending to-day has been the
busiest since the beginning Of the cam
paign so far as the speakers depart
ment at headquarters is concerned. Col
onel Hahn said to-day that he had made
more assignments for speakers this
week than for the last three months and
that for the next three weeks he expects
to excel his record.
Reports from Messrs. Butterworth
and Schoonmaker, who are in Califor-
ria, being the first orators ever sent to
the Pacific Coast by the Republican Ma
tional Committee, are full of enthusi-
asm, and state the largest meetings ever
held on the coast are taking place daily.
The California State Committee has
sent a request to Mr.. Hahn asking for
an extension of Mr. Butterworth's time
in that State, but Mr.. Butterworth will
go next week to Oregon and Washing
ton. as previously arranged.
Congressman Dingley of Maine, who
has been speaking in Indiana, was in
the city to-day. He reports that State
safe for Mckinley and sound money.
CONGRESSMAN Boutelle of Maine is ex-
pected to reach here tomorrow, and un-
less his itinerary is changed, will go
Oh to the States Of Washington, Oregon,
and California. 1t is expected that Mr..
Boutelle will start for the coast on the
18th or 14th inst. and will remain there
until the close of the campaign.
Speaker Reed has been assigned to
Indiana for three speeches, one of which
will be delivered at Peru on the 18th.
Ex-President Harrison, 1t Is an
nounced, will make several speeches In
Indiana within the next few days. 1t
Is not yet determined where these
speeches will be made.

cause it will show you what tiny things

plause.) The gentleman wants to know
how we are going to get money from
the silver kings. want him to remem-
ber this: That he has two arguments,
If he represents the gold standard, say,
which I want him to reconcile while he
has time. They tell you that the silver
king will convert what is now fifty
cents into 100 cents and make the diff
ference. That is one Of the troubles, is
it not?''
The man-It is.
Mr.. Bryan-And then when he has
done that it will be fifty-cent dollar;
that is another difficulty, is it not?
Great cheering) Now, when you have
time to think about 1t, 1 want you to
try to figure out how that can be a hun
dred-cent dollar long enough for the
miner to make fifty cents on it and then
become fifty-cent dollar for all the rest
of the people. (Applause) The only
way in which the miner can make that
profit is by converting a piece Of silver
now worth fifty cents into a dollar
worth 100 cents. If, when he gets
through he has only converted fifty
cent piece of silver into a fifty-cent dol
lar, he has not made anything by the
operation. (Applause)
Mr.. Bryan then spoke along familiar
lines on the money question, and re-
ferred to McKinley's speech in 1890 in
support Of the Sherman law.
In closing, Mr.. Bryan said: Il am
willing to trust the question of our
cause to the sense of justice that exists
in every individual, and, my friends, If
we cannot win this contest by the vol
untary wish and vote of the American
people I would prefer to wait four years
more before we win 1t. (Cheers) l say,
my friends, / would prefer to wait than
to feel that after we win the contest
that it was not supported by majority
of the American people. I realize the
fight that we have on hand. 1 realize
the work that lies before President
who meets these combinations. I realize
the responsibilities Of the office, and l
want to feel, if am elected, that have
behind me the hearts of a majority of
these people, and if / have. so help me
God, I will carry out that platform. -"
