friends, | want to leave this SUBJ
ject to be discussed by others. and
want simply say one thing"
A voice "You are the chief
captain Go ahead -
Mr.. Bryan cit is not a diff
cult thing for us who live in this
Western country-we know the
condition of our people, their means
and their desires-it is not a diff
cult thing for us to advocate BIZ
metallism. 1t is not difficult
thing for us to ask for the restor-
.ation Of @the~-frasu and -anlsmited
coinage of gold and silver at the
ratio of Is TO /.
Praise for sswall.
"But there are sections of this
country in which it requires more
heroism to stand out for the rights
of the masses, of the people. and
ask you, as you assemble tonight,
not to forget that brave man who
stands upon this ticket with me,
and who, away off near the Allan
tic shore, has been fighting the bat
ties of the common people as cour-
ageously as Bland has fought them
in Missouri long and continued
applause as courageously as Wes-
tern advocates of free coinage have
fought the battle here. And in
our delight over having at last
claimed recognition on the nation
al ticket for Western men and
Western ideas, do not for a nom.
ent allow our enthusiasm to lag ;
do not for one moment forget the
patriotism of Arthur Sewall [great
applausel who stands as the en-
bodiment of this principle, as well
as those of the West and South.
81 beg you to remember your re-
sponsibility as citizens. We come
not to you appealing for your
votes. They are your own. You
live in q nation where the people
rule, where every citizen is sover-
eign. Aye, where no one cares to
wear a crown. Applause. We
do not come to appeal to you We
simply come to- present the issues
of this campaign. We believe it is
righteous cause"
A voice: $50 do we
Mr.. Bryan "But we submit
it to your judgment, and all We ask
of you is that each of you shall
study all the questions, and when
you have made up your minds. have
the courage to do what you believe
to be right. Great applause and
cheering. Let your ballots-let
the ballot of each man-register
freeman's will, and then, my
friends, whatever may be the result
we shall accept it in that spirit
which pervades Democracy.
"We shall except it because the
majority Of the people, expressing
themselves at the polls, must be re-
spected because from their decis-
ion there is no appeal. thank
you for your attention" Wild
cheering and great applaase.)

An Honest Dollar.

"But, my friends, while we have
all charity for those who differ with
us, and while we concede to them
the right to wage this war as best
they oan,-ayl, by every i1oaazz zzs2e
means, secure that legislation they
think to be best, l beg to impress
upon you that you have an equal
right with the PEOPLE of any section
of this land to make your influence
felt in dealing with the destinies of
this Republic. We have our homes
and our families 20 consider, and
they have none to protect them but
us, and if we fail in our duty their
interests must be neglected.
81 believe, to the very bottom Of
my heart | believe, and the belief
touches every fiber of my being,
that until we restore silver to its
equal place by the side of gold, to
the place it occupied for so many
ages, there can be no lasting pros
perity brought back to the homes
of those who toll. (Deafening ap-
plause).
"They tell US they want conf
dence restored. We reply that con-
fidence must have substantial ba-
sis upon which to rest, and that so
long as you legislate value ont of
property there is nothing substan-
tial upon which confidence can rest.
If they tell us they want an honest
dollar, we tell them that we vie
with them in our desire for an hon.
est dollar, but when we attempt to
define an honest dollar we ask them
to give us dollar which is as kind
to the man who produces wealth as
to the man who holds fixed invest.

The United States Alone.
(Which course will they take !:
They dare not take either course.
They dare not meet the issue on
the money question, because there
is no ground upon which they can
stand. If they had declared for a
gold standard they might have ad-
yocated it, but having declared
against gold standard, they dare
not ask the verdict of their coun-
trymen on this proposition. Is the
United States unable to legislate
for itself on the most important
issues before the country, or must
the legislative power be delegated
to some foreign nation: !: Must the
American people surrender the
right of self-government? Cries

ana Tor thae purpose l want to sug-
gest two things for You to think
about.
"They tell you that the gold
standard is the standard OF ciyiliza-
ticn. That is their argument. IL
they tell you that, Les me suggest
an answer that is complete. If the
gold standard is the standard Of
civilization, why is it that the Uni
ted States. the leader in the civili-
zation Of the world, has never de-
clared for the golds- standard !?
(sEsak ehsasine anslleontinnsaz zep-
planse.) IL the gold standard is
standard of civilization, why is it
that no national party in the his
tory OF the United States has ever
declared that the gold standard is a
good thing. ?"
A voice: The Republicans did.
Mr.. Rryan You say the Re-
publican party did? No it did
not. The Republican party de-
clared that the gold standard should
be maintained until something
could be substituted for it. (Great
applause and laughter.) Then
what was that something. Zap
plause. What was that some
thing? 1t was bimetallism. And
they pledged themselves to get rid
of the gold standard and substitute
bimetallism as a better thing than
a gold standard. LApplause and
laughter. II the gold standard is
a good thing, why should we try to
get rid of it: Laughter and ap-
plause. If it is bad thing, why
should we keep it for single mo-
ment? Applause and cries of
"Good, good God bless you,
Bryan"
eff, my friends, they declare
upon any stump, upon any plat
form or in any State that to advo-
cate the gold standard is a good
thing we point to the Republican
platform as conclusive evidence that
the principle of bimetallism is bet
ter than the principle involved in
the gold standard /; and if they ad-
NIT that the double standard is bet
ter than single standard, single
gold standard, and tell us that this
nation is unable to sustain it with
out aid and consent of other ma
tions, we hurl back defiance to them
and tell them that this nation is
great enough to legislate for it's
own people without waiting for the
aid or consent of any other nation
on earth.

Such a complaint as the one / drew

that the city lost its case by dismissing
my complaint, which was for the sim

against my theory OF the case have
vanished and am now sustained on all
sides.

which appeared in a local newspaper,
with reference to the dismissal of my

Fish" The article to which refer was
seemingly prompted by jealous and
malicious enemies. and / might recip-
of the suit-with an article entitled "A
Prettier Kettle of Fish," because OF
their complete Knockout in court.
think the originstors of the article can
now perhaps see the folly of their
wrongdoing and aptly murmur to
themselves. What asses we have

The city should have won the case
