better Illinois wine than have naughterJ
than you have. We know tho
ecstasics of love rs well as they.
We know the love OF wife ana
child and friend. and in some respects
we have the advantage. GLaughterl They
fear and we hope. They are at the top. ann
they are afraid OF falling. We are close to
the ground and We hope TO climb.
ILaughter.1 And, now, is a man to be-
envied simply because he has got more
than he can use? What good Is that What
Is the use OF carrying 100 canes? What Is
the use OF having more than you can possi-
bly, spend?
Let me tell you another thing. Lots of
these people are owned by the property
they think they possess. ILaughter.l The
property owns them and II will get them
up at four o'clock In the morning and will
make them work like slaves until night.
They are afraid every minute that some
body IL going to steal IL. They have no
confidence in the friendship of man or
woman. They think they are all wanting
their money. They think their children
are anxious to go to their funeral. Laugh
teri That all their heirs would love to
look on their mausoleum. Laughter
That is the trouble with them.
And another trouble is that most of
them are insane. They don't know when
they have got enough What would you
think Of a man that had 100000 neckties?
up at three o'clock in the morning, going
through snow and slush until ten o'clock at
night, to get him another necktie? Laugh
teri
Trusts and syndicates.
with all my heart, hate the trusts and
syndicates that coaspire to rob honest peo-
pie, and / want the laws against them en-
forced. GApplausc.1 But have nothing
against the man that makes money by
honest methods. am glad live in
country where its people can get rich. Zap
plause.1 1t is a spur In the side OF ambi-
ton. The poor always have hope. II not for
themselves, at least for their children.
Why should we envy the successful? Why
should we hate them: and why should wo
array class against class? II is all wrong.
For instance, here is young man, and
no Is Industrious. He Is in love with a girl
around the corner. She is in his brain all
day, and in his heart all night [laughterl,
and while he IS working he Is thinking.
and he gets little ahead, and they get
married; and he is an honest man. and he
gets credit, and the first thing you know
he has a good home for his wife and his
children. and his old age Is filed with con-
tent ard love. G"Good."l
His companions bask in the sunshine of
idleness-have wasted their tirle. wasted
their wages in dissipation, and when the
winter of life comes. when the snow falls
on the barren fields OF the wasted days.
hunger. they curse the man who has sue
ceeded Thereupon they all say they are
going to vote for Bryan.
'"The citizens OF America should be
friends. We have no permanent classes.
The children of the rich to-day may work
for the men who worked for them. Sons
of millonaires may be mendicants: sons
Of mondicants may be mlllionaires. Jap
plause and cries Of that's right The
great republic opens every avenue to dis
tinction and wealth to her children. That
Is why l like the country. That is why
don't want 1t dishonored.
Against Class Feeling.
IT want no class feeling. Blessed Is that
country where the rich are extravagant
and the poor economical. ILaughterl
Miserable that country whore the rich arc
economical and the poor are extravaganza.
A rich spendthrlft is blessing. rich
miser is curse. Extravaganza is q splen-
did form of charity. Let the rich spend, let
them build, let them give work to their fell
low-men, and l will find no fault with
their wealth. provided they obtain 1t
honestly.
Then there is another thing. They are
trying to fan the flames OF hate between
the south and west on one side and the
cast on tho other. Why should we of ILL
nois hate the east? Give US some reason.
Why should we hate the east? They never
loaned us n dollar that we didn't borrow.
that we did not make the application
never one. And their money has helped to
civiliZe and build up the west. and this city
OF Chicago, the wonder of the world, the
second city on the continent. was built up
by eastern energy and eastern money and
eastern men. [Applausel
why should we hate the east? There
Is where we got good many of our mis-
takes, and that is where we got a good
deal of our information. l like the east
and 1 love the west. love the republic.
There are some people in 1t that do not
admire [laughterl, but / believe In giving
them a chance, and IL they have not got
the sense to take 1t their children may
have.
Now, then. we have got to make our
choice. I want the republic one and indi-
visible. [Great applause.] Then you have
got to choose between Mckinley and Bry-
an. 1t won't take you long to make up
your minds. / admit that Bryan is hon.
est. If he was not his intellectual pride
would not allow him to say what he does.
He is honest He is populst. socialist
and new democrat. [Great laughter.f
His head is filed with vagaries and his
brain is kind of political insane asylum
without keeper. ILaughter.l
Mckinley is n trained man. Mckinley
has a level head. He Is sensible, candid.
lie is an American in every drop OF his
blood. TApplause.l He was soldier
when Bryan was in his mothers arms.
Flo was n soldier; he Is n statesman: he Is
the apostle of protection [applausel: he
knows the road that leads to prosperity;
he knows the way to business; ard he I'M
derstands honorable methods.
Mckinley as n Statesman.
"a few years ago he made n speech at
Cleveland on protection and I read II, one
OF the few speeches have read in my life,
and II was the best speech ever read or
ever heard on the subject of protection.
tApplause.1 He marshalcd his facts with
as much skill as Grant or Caesar ever mar
shaded his forces in the field. fhppla,.se.1
Ills speech had foundation, proportion.
and ever since read IL l have had pro-
found respect for the intelligence of Will
liam Mckinley. [Applausel He has made
many speeches during this campaign. Ho
has made no mistakes. He has not made
one that did not add to his popularity.
[Applause.1 He has not made one that
has not added to the respect the American
people have for him. [Applause.l Shall
we take Mr.. Bryan? [Cries OF not
