When Mr.. Bryan reached Petersburg
yesterday evening he was greeted by a
crowd OF 10000 people. After 4
o'clock business was practically closed
throughout the city, and little later
the streets were everywhere deserted.
He spoke from a platform in front of
the Albemarle Hotel. The interest
and the pleasure of the occasion, too,
were greatly enhanced by the presence
of so many lovely women, who, waving
handkerchief and fans, gave evidence
of their welcome to the orator and
their appreciation of his telling points.
All along the streets en- his way to the
depot he was cheered by crowds Of peo-
Pile, who lined the sidewalks, and many
men, shouting for "Bryan and free sill
ver," rushed down the street behind
his carriage. AT the lower depot sew
eral thousand people crowded around
his carriage, and he was fairly lifted
from it into his car.
On arriving at Manchester he was
met by another large crowd and made
speech.
Mr.. Bryan started for Washington at
I o'clock this morning. He stopped off
at Fredericksburg, where he was again
greeted by large crowd and made an
address.

ME-. BRYAN, in his speech in Rich
mond LAST night, said:
SIN nay judgment the income tax is
lust. 1t is not war upon property, but
il is demand that those who have
property and who demand the protec-
ton of that property by federal laws
should be willing to support the gov,
eminent to which they look for that
protection, and not to seek to use the
instrumentalities of government Tor
their own benefit, and throw the bur-
den of supporting that government On .,
the backs of those not able to bear 1t.
The Justice and common sense OF this
must be apparent to every right thinking
man, no matter whether ne be repub'
llcan or democrat, anc, what's more
unless such tax be speedily laid. the
discomfort of those people who have no
income, but who have to bear the bur-
den of the governments expenses,
will be greatly increased, if not to the
dangerous point.

warrant for the arrest of the men as re-
ported. 1t was not, he said, however,

THE BoLTERs and their subsidized
organs attempt to Offset their desertion
of their party by the fact that Mr.
BRYAN did net vote for his psrty's
ticket four years ago. But they don't
say why he didn't? He did it at the
desire and request of the very same
plutocratic democrats who are now op-
posing him; and he had q good reason
for so doing, There was no possible
chance for the democrats to carry Ne
braska, but the populists thought they
might carry it, as they did the adjoin-
ing republican State of Kansas, and as
the electoral vote of every such State
would take SO much away from Harri-
son, it, of course, made Cleveland's
election the more possible. The cause
of the democratic, his own party, was
promoted by democratic vote for
Weaver in Nebraska in 1892; the cause
of the republican party is promoted by
a democratic vote for Palmer in Vir-
ginia in 1896; and the man who denies
this, has either q wrong head or a
wrong heart.
