SPEECH Of HON. E. |. RUSSELL.

Ladies and Fellow Citizens: In ac-
cordance with the time-honored demo-
cratic custom, we have met this evening
to ratify the nominations made by the
democratic convention al Chicago, and
to indorse the platform there promul-
gated
It is always a pleasure for me to stand
In the presence of an audience composed
of the fair women of Mobile and her in
ielligent and loyal citizenship.
AS am to preside over his interesting
meeting. and as we have distinguished
and eloquent speakers from Birming-
ham. Montgomery and Greenville, Ala,
shall content myself with making two or
three observations upon the political sit
uation.
Some of our democratic associates have
gone into what is known as the third
party movement, orga nizing what they
are pleased to call the national demo-
cratic party" The claim they put for N
is that they represent the true and stead
fast democracy Of the country.
NV fellow citizens, do the facss sus-
tain this claim? They do not question
the regularity of q single state conven-
ton that sent delegates to Chicago; they
do not question the regularity of the or
eanization and action of the democratic
convention at Chicago. Why do they
not question them? Because they are
bound to admit that a majority of the
democrats of each state that sent dele
gates 70 chicago acted IN strct accord
ance with the law and legal rules of the
democratic party. In view of these
facts. how can they sustain the claim
that they are holding to the ark of
True and Ancient DemocracyP
No, gentlemen, this claim is not con-
sistent with the facts. Such a claim in
suits the intelligent citizenship of this
country. This movement is made delib-
erately for the purpose of aiding Mr.. Nc
Kinley and to destroy democracy and
democratic organiza ton rather than to
preserve it,
Permit me to read you a little extract
from an Interview had the other day with
Boss Hanna while in Boston The re-
porter asked him the following question:
How does the third party candidacy
Impress you?"
well, undoubtedly the third candidate
will benefit Mckinley in the central part
Of the country OF course. here in the

SPEECH OF HON. JESSE F. sTALLlNGs.

Mr.. Chairman and Fellow Citizens of
Mobile: | have no language adequate 10
express my qualification at being ac-
corded the pleasure of addressing this
large and enthusiastic gathering of DEM
ocrats. You are not United States demo-
Gratis, Alabama democrats Mobile demo-
Gratis, and surely not national democrats,
for you don't look mad, but just plain,
unassuming democrats. Mobile has al
ways been true and reliable at every
party call When your distinguished
fellow townsman was not accorded the
democratic nomination for governor OF
this matchless commonwealth last
spring, under his leadership and the
leadership of my friend, Hon. E. l.. Rus
sell, you proceeded to give his successful
rival the largest majority ever given any
candidate in the countys history. Let
democrats all over Alabama follow the
example Of Mobile. Yours was so-call-
ed sound money county at the primaries
held last April, but you were then, and
are now, democrats first, sound money
men afterwards. You are thorough
breds, and democratic harness never
rubs the hair off nor gals their proud
flesh. 1t is only the branded wild mus,
tang of the prarie that no harness VIII
fit that Is constantly kicking and buck
ing talking and boiling, and Is null
sance to any team when reliability and
smooth, even work Is desired.
A well trained thoroughbred never
bolts; a branded scrub generally does,
and where once the habit has been con-
tracted, especially in early life, you may
feed him with the best in the barn, you
may pet him, fondle him, caress him, he
will never forget that In early life he
fed on mesquite before his fetIocks were
trimmed. and bolt he will to his early
love, notwithstanding your kindness.
The democratic party had
Some Few Branded Mustangs.
They wanted to eat mesquite again and
feel their fetloclis sweeping the sasd of
now trying to persuade the thorough
breds that republican mesquite grass Is
the better food, more nutricious than

Mobile, Aug. 29.-(Special)-If any
thing was lacking to prove the silver sem
timent of this county it was furnished
by the vast outpouring of all classes to
hear distinguished speakers at the Bryan
and Sewall club ratification tonight the
largest held in years.
A novel featur was the placing of
chairs on the broad pavement of st. Jo-
seph's street, where the stand faced
Bienville square. Early the crowd col
lected, jamming the street, the square
and its approaches.
AT o'clock Chairman Sid Lyons of the
committee called the meeting to order
in a few happy and hopeful words and
named Col E. l.. Russell, elector for the
First district, as president of the meet
ing with Messrs. Richard Hines, Eyre
Damer, Max Hamburger, Jr, and L. Z.
DeLeon as secretaries.
Colonel Russell spoke more briefly than
usual but with all his peculiar fire ana
directness, his telling points, that went
straight from the shoulder, being cheered
to the echo
Concluding, he introduced Hon. John
w. Tomiinson of Birmingham president
of the State Herald company and mem
ber of the national committee. The Jet-
ferson man was handsomely greeted, ana
spoke forcibly and deliberately.
The chairman next introduced vet
eran democrat, by chance the guest or
Mobile as the democratic war horse of
four decades, whom his own county had
Just unanimously indorsed for congress-
Col. Charles L. Scott of Monroe. This
old soldier and old democrat reminded
his hearers that he was no less an Ala
bamian because he had represented CAL
ifornia for two terms in congress, for he
had come home and fought the war with
the grand old Fourth Alabama he
spoke briefly but earnestly, saying tnat
there was but one road TO victory, anu
that was unity, and he predicted glorious
victory all along the line in November.
He scored the republicans and the bolt
ing Mckinley democrats and sat down
under an ovation.
Colonel Russell introduced Hon Ten
nant Lomax of Montgomery. His bril-
liant description of Bryan's nomination
and his eloquent peroratlon brought an
ovation.
The last speaker was jolly and elo-
ullent Jesse Stallings. He rolled up his
sleeves and went for the boilers in great
shape He closed by answering some
questions printed in the Register today
as to the values Of the two metals and
the results of the adoption of the silver
standard, His analysis of these quss-
tons and his answers to them seflatlm
were honest logical and convincing.
They carried the vast cfoWu Win niih
and have satisfied all hearers that the
questions were chestnuts, and very dry
ones at that.
The meeting closed with the enthusi-
astic adoption of ringing resolutions in
dorsing the Chicago platform and the
nominees and pledging fealty and earn
est support to both.
After the speaking tonight brilliant
banquet was given at the Hotel Windsor
by the Mobilians to the visiting speak
ers, the following gentlemen being
around the table: John W. Tomlinson,
Jesse Stallings. Tennent Lomax, G. L.
Scott. +. L. Russell, A. S. Lyons, C. L.
I.avretta, John Case, e. b. Kirkbride,
Erwin Craighead. Eyre Damer, II. F.
