The morning times. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1895-1897, 1896-09-09

?TheSe people, who have attempted tu
array u FEW OF ,ne people against ttse rest
OF the people, have insisted that the
acknowledgements should be putinthe
hands OF a few. When we have complained,
what euphonious names they have given to
u.s. They have been calling us disturbers of
the peace and the ) have called US anarchists,
my friends. My friends, these terms simply
express the contempt which they have for the
great mass OF the people OF this country.
These names they call us simply prove
that they are not willing to trustthe dest inies
of tn Republic in the hands of the people
who have created its wealth In times OF
peace and who fought Its battles IN tiiEs t,f
war. Show me these people who now call US
anarchists and l will show you class
orpeople who. If we had a war, would never
go to the front, but they are the people who
slander those who would fight the battles
to save their own property.
HIS HOME MAJORITY.
Mr. Bryan said that when he was called
q disturber of the public peace Il was graft
flying to meet the tolers of hih own city.
who indorseI him as one they were willing
to trust lie said he expected minority
OF this, Lancaster county, and q majority
OF not less than 20 900 in Nebraska. He
thought even this ma jority was not large
enough. Continuing. be said:
MY friends, gentlemen down ID New
ment was all on our side in this campaign.
and one man said that Il man could not

what word rhymes with 'syndicate?' 1t

THE LANGUAGE OF 1892.
Following these same lines, the Re-
publican convention In 1882 declared at
Minneapolis that the American people.
from tradition and interest, were IN fdyOr
OF bimetallisni.
That is the language OF 1S92-that the
American people from tradition aud in-
terest are for bimetallism. Have ira
uitious changed in four years? Have In
terests changed i'll four years? No, my
friends, and yet, forgetting the platform
OF o, forgetting the denun ciation
uttarcdb ytheirustinguishediea ieaderin 1891,
forgetting the platform of 1899, the Re-
publican party, in convention asseni'ied.
declared that the American people niust
forego the advantages OF tine biiEe:iiic
system TO which tradition ard interest
indorsed them until foreign nations sa"n'd
bring these advantages TO them.
1t is not strange that men who had
looked for bimetaiiism in the Republican
party should have given up hope and
turned elsewhere Tor relief These Re
pubiicans cannot be criticised for leaving
the Republican party. They have done
what every American citizen has a right
to do. They have done better than o,ir
Democratic advocates Of the gold standard
have done, because these Republicans, when
they left the party, joined with those who
had chance to succeed, while our Demo-
cratic advocates OF the gold standard sought
To secure the election OF a Republican can
didate by nominating u Democratic can
didate.
WHAT SHERMAN SAID.
Il intend to show You that the action
OF the Republicans is defended by ex-
perieDce and example. Let me carry you
back to the period just preceding the war.
Ir you will turn to Il book recently pub
lished, entitled John Shcrman's Recoilec-
tions, you will find on page l12, OF the
first volume, a portion of a speech which
he delivered in Congress in 1856.
Let me read this extract: i am willing
to stand by the compromises OF 1890 and
1850; but when our Whig brethren OF the
south allow this administration to lead
them off from their principles, when they
abIndon the position which Henry Clay
would have taken, forget his name and
achievements and decline any longer to
carry his bunncr, they lose all their cia inns
on me. And say now, that until this
wrong is ngiited, until Kansas is admitted
as free State, cannot act in party as
ISOLATION with them.
'.liiS the giStinguis shed Senator
from Ohio asserting to the people Of this
country upon the floor or Congress that he
was willing to accept compromise after
compromise. but that the inc had at last
come when he could 20 with them no
longer; that until certain things were
accomplished, he could not act with them.
The situation tojiay is but a repetition CT
history. Compromise after compromise
has been submitted 10 by the silver Repuh
lcan in the hope that thu party Of their
choice and love would at last bring 10 the
people the relief which they desired.
THE GREAT MONEY TRUST.
But the Republican party, like that
party in $50, has been led Oft by another
administration until it has deserted its
traditions and its platform, and these
Republicans have a right to say to their
Republican associates: We will go with
you no longer until this nation S redeemed
we 10 not ASK tIDSt WHO prHSSut ttilS
nomination TO pledge their future services
to the Democratic party. The same i'm
pulse which directs then, today in the dis
charge of their duty will he with them four
years from, now to direct them then in the
discharge OF the duties that will then
arise.
The same patriotism that leads them
today in what they do will he with them
four years from now to guide and direct
Nl-a fI.eFvl hull
then, then. The Democratic party has
proven itself worthy Uf their confidence
today, and IL receives their support If
four years from now il proves unworthy
OF their confidence, it should not then have
their support.
The CHAIRMAN of the notification COM
mittee has told You that we have to meet
today great money trust. He is right.
We are confronted today by the most gigantic
trust til at has ever bean formed among Men
Talk about trusts in various articles which
we produce. My friends, all these trusts
together fall into iDsignificance when COM
pared with the money trust, which has its
hands upon our country.
sEwALL ACCEPTED BY PROXY.
place the control OF the standard money
OF the world in the hands of n few great
financiers and times will be good for them,
no matter what may overtake the rest of
mankind. l believe that John q. Carlisle
did not exaggerate the truth when he said:
The consummation of this scheme mea.s
more of misery to the human race than all
the wars, pestilences and famines that ever
occurred in the history of the world
who does not stand appalled, before
misery like that? Among you who Is
willing to be party to a conspiracy that
has for its object the Consummation Of
that scheme? 1t is against the consumma-
ton of this scheme, eloquently and forci-
bly, described, that the silver Republicans
have arisen in protest. l respect the con-
