LOUISVILLE, Ky, Sept. 14.-Mr
Bryan left st. Louis at $50 o'clock this
morning in a. special train, accompan-
led by Congressman Alien and several
members of the st. Louis local commit
tee
Although the hour was very early
when Mr. Bryan's train reached Belle
vile. H., where the first stop was made,
more than a thousand people We're
gathered about temporary platform
near the tracks.
Mr.. Bryan was presented by Martin
w. Shafer chairman of the Democratic
county committee. In the course of his
remarks, Mr.. Bryan said:
THE NATURAL RESULT.
IF the people OF the United States
deliberately throw their influence upon
the side of the gold standard, it simply
means that they raise the value OF an
ounce of gold throughout the world. If
we succumb to the influences which are
opposed to US, the great money inf1u-
ences, these same influences will be
turned upon weaker nations and ma
ton after nation will be driven from
the use of silver as every new nation
that joins in the crusade for gold will
make our property cheaper and our
money dearer and give unearned ad-
vantage to the men who own money
and change money and add continuing
distress TO the people who toll and pro-
duce the wealth OF the world. CCheers.)
We are here in a great lalboring COM
munity. I call your attention,
MEN WHO TOLL,
to the fact that not in a single instance
in the history OF recorded time has the
gold standard ever received the volun-
tary endorsement of those who labor.
(Cheers.) 1t has been supported, it has
been defended, and it has been propo-
gated by those who, instead of produc-
ing wealth. live upon the toll of others,
and by holding and cornering the
money of the world, charge what they
will for it of those who must have 1t 10
do the business of the world. Take
away the god standard, the support of
the money owning classes and money
changing classes, and it viii not stand
for a single day in any nation on earth.
(Cheers.) 1 appeal to you to
DO YOUR DUTY AS YOU SEE IT
and let no threat or persuasion swerve
YOU from making each vote register a
free mans Will" loud cheeTing)
