dominating your financial policy. Great
cheering)
Talk about arraying one class against
another; 1 want tofask you why 1t is that
every democrat who is interested in syn
dlcate or a trust, or has salary from
railroad corporation, is arrayed against
the democratic party? Cheers. Why is
IL? Is it because the democratic party
has declared against the issue of bonds
in time of peace and the traficking with
syndicates? C"That's right" from the
crowd 1t is because the democratic par
ty Is opposed to the trusts and the prices
which the trusts have instituted 1t is
because the democratic party believes in
the control and the regulation and the
restriction of all corporations so that they
will serve the purpose for which they
were allowed to exist. Great cheering).
If those connected with trusts are flock
ing together in the republican party, may
we not appeal to all the smaller business
men who have felt the iron heel OF the
trust and who have been driven out of
business by its unlawful competition?
Great cheering).
'If we are TO lose all the attorneys OF
these great trusts Ga cry of 'let them go'O
may we not appeal with confidence to the
support of the people who have been
plundered by these trusts and their attor-
neys who have received a part of the
DIunQeTE tCHEGTS anu SuOulS VI yes ,
We are not responsible for the arraying of
one class against another. These people
have defined the business to be few of,
not the producers of wealth, but the ex-
changers of wealth, or those who try to
corner the wealth, and they are trying to
array them against the rest Of the people,
1.-THE republican platform Ia the state
of New York says that we ought to have
a business administration conducted by
business men in behalf Of the business in
terests of the country. What do they
mean by that? DO they call the farmers
business men? (Cries of 'no.'D oh, no;
simply producers of wealth. But If a man
goes on the board of trade and makes more
in an hour betting on the prices OF the
wheat you raise than you make in year,
he becomes a business man. These peo-
ple who have attempted to array few
of the people against the rest of the peo-
ple and who have insisted that the af-
fairs Of this government should be put In
the hands of a few when we have COM
planned, what euphonious names they
have given to us? They have been call
ing us disturbers Of the peace, and they
have called us anarchists, my friends.
Great cheering)
"Mv friends, these terms simply ex-
press the contempt which they have for
the great mass of the people of this coun-
try (Cries of They've been doing 1t
for twenty-five years.'D These names they
| call us simply prove that they are not will
ing to trust the destinies of this republic
in the hands of the people who have Gre
ated its wealth in times of peace, and
who have fought its battles in times of
war. (Applause) Show me these people
who now call us anarchists, and / will
show you a class Of people who, If we
had a war, would never go to the front,
| hut they are the people who SANDER those
who would fight the battles to save their
own property" applause and cheers. }
Mr.. Bryan said that when he was call
! ed a disturber of the public peace 1t was
| gratifying to meet the toiler of his own
| city who Endorsed him one they were
willing to trust. He said he expected a
majority In this Lancaster county, and
| a majority of not less than $500 in Ne
| braska He thought even this majority
| was not large enough.
| Continuing, he said: MY friends, gen
| tlemen down in New York called atten-
| ton to the fact that sentiment was all
on our side, IN this campaign, and one
! man said that a man could not write q
poem in favor OF syndicates running the
business of this country. (Applause. J
| DO you know what word rhymes with
"syndicate?' It is hate" and you can.
| not write a poem and you cannot sing
| a song in favor Of the syndicates con.
| trolling the financial policy of this ma.
| ton. Now, / must STOP or 1 will make
| a speech. Cries of Go on; we haven't
half enough.'D You know that / would
hate awfully to have the New York pa.
pers say that 1 had driven an audience
away in my own town. Great cheering.
Prolonged cheering followed the con.
clusion of Mr.. Bryan's speech. He was
| followed by Mr.. Grout, and the assem-
blage dispersed.
