BRYAN IN INDIANA.
Soon after leaving Carmi the Bryan spe-
| Cial crossed the Wabash into Indiana, and
Mr. Bryan received his welcome to that
State from committees from Mount Yer
| non, Ind, and Evansville, Ind, headed
respectively by Col. A. ID. owen and John
". Pencer, who had joined the candidates
| PARTY at Carmi.
| Evansville, Ind, Sept. 1.-THE first
| place where a stop was made in Indiana
| by the Bryan train was Mount Vernon, at
| noon. Five thousand people greeted Mr.
| Bryan there. In his speech Mr.. Eryan said:
They talk of a flood of silver Nothing
| exciJcs my compassion more than to lind
the man who has not enough money TO
pa Y off his debts and does not know wnere
! GeXt winters provisions Will come fIOm,
| trembling in his boots, for fear OF flood
| or money, and that it will overwbclm
him.
| where is the flood coming from? They
| say European nations will send their.
| silver here. 1t will not come unless some
body here will give what those people
demand in return That silver Is now
| Il ratio more favorable to silver than here.
You don't melt spoons worth collar
| aud half into money worth dollar and
| 30 cents, because it does not pay. When you
| apply lai,ur To silver. you make 1T worth
more than IL is at the mint. but some are
| afraid of n great increase in the produc-
ton of silver and an increase in money.
SPOKE TO s.CCO PEOPLE.
Mr.. Bryan reached Evansville shortly be-
| fore l O'Clock. He was placed i'll car
riaGe and taken to an orcn lot, enc hum
| dred yards from where the train stopped.
| The lot was crowded TO its outskirts W ith
| people.
Two Bryan and Sewall clubs arrived
| after Mr. BryauLeached the COY cred stand,
from which Ee made his speech, and in
| creased the gathering. The candidate was
| very heartily cheered.
| Mr.. brTsrfr went over many Of the points
! discussed by him before. He spoke i'll
| part 0S follows:
| AS | came down the street noticed a
| picture showing the mines opening in one
place and the IactUr.eS ID another, and the
| Republican party assures the people ii is
| trying TO open the factories while We are
| trying to open the mints.
our policy means the opening OF both
mints and factories. The triumph of the
| Republican party means the closing OF both
| minis and factories. How can the MAN.
| fac;urer sell goods unless the people are
| able to buy them.
! As long as you drive down the prices of
| farm products you make 1t impossible for
| the farmer to buy tie products OF the
| factories, and until he can buy YOU cannot
! open the factories. When they say they
| want to open the factories first aud then
times will be good, it is putting the cart
| before the horse. 1t is like saying Il man
| has Il good wagon and ii runs well il lie
could only make the horse go.
WAITING FOR BETTER TIMES. .
! People need clothing and other products
| OF the factory. Why can I they buy them?
| Because when the farmer sells his crops
! in gold prices and pays his debts and
| taxes he has nothing lett to spend at the
/ store. We people wto have been waiting
| for twenty years for better times are
getting sick at heart because times get
| worse instead of bettCr
