Mr.. Bryan Before the Bryan and Sewall
Club in New York City.


IT have visited all the states and terri
tories of the United States l have met
miners, silver men, gold men, farmers,
les and all kinds of men in all parts of
the county, but in no place have l been
more kindly received than in New York
City. ca voice, I'VE love you.'O
1--WE have been taught those principles
of democracy which were taught by our
fathers and we hope to hand down the
everlasting principles to future genera
lions. The principles of the real demo-
cratic democracy are to do equal justice
to every citizen, independent of the fact
whether he is rich or poor, humble or
exalted. The true democracy counts
among its followers all those who truly
love our country. Applause)
1.-THE purpose of the party in this
campaign is not to subvert the principles
of the government. but to lead it to a
higher future and to carry it back to the
old-time principles from which it has
fallen away. Democracy is a system
which makes favorites of no citizens, but
regards them all as equals.
"This is the democracy which appeals
to the young men who have not yet lost
their ideals and who want to make their
in the plans and dreams of our forefath-
ers. (Applause)
This Is the democracy as 1t shall be
taught in the next four years if our cause
prevails. CIT will! 1t will!O 1 believe
that we are fighting battle which means
much to the toiling people, Our victory
means hope and inspiration to countless
millions who live in all parts Of our glo-
rious land"

POLICE PICklNGS.

Some time ago Officer Culpepper ar
rested a man named Horace Connors on
a charge of grand larceny. Phil Dorsey
was also connected with the case and was
at the same time taken in charge, both
being arrested by Officer Culpepper. Con-
nors was under 800 bond, signed by Mr..
Wheeler of the firm of Hood & Wheeler.
The two men skipped town and their
whereabouts was unknown until yester-
day, when Chief Mcdonald received noti-
fication from Chief Gerald of the Mont
gomery police department that the two
men were in custody there. Chief Nc
Donald at once notified him that he would
send an officer for them. Officer Culpep-
per will go to Montgomery this morning
for them.

John G.. CARLISLE

According to my view of the SUBJ
ject, the conspiracy which seems to
have been formed here and In Europe
to destroy by legislation and other
wise from three-sevenths to one-half
of the metallic money of the world. Is
the most gigantic crime of this or anv
other age. The contamination of suoh
a scheme would ultimately entail
more misery upon the human race
than all the wars, pestilence and fam
inc that ever occurred in the history
of the world. The absolute and in
Simultaneous destruction of half the
movable property of the world. in
Guiding horses, ships railroads and all
other appliances for carrying on COM
merce, while 1t would be felt more
sensibly at the moment, would not
produce anything like the prolonged
distress and Reorganization of socie-
ty that must inevitably result from
the permanent humiliation of one
half of the metallic money Of the
world. u. G. Carlisle, in house of

NEW YORK HBRALD,s ESTIMATE.

The New York Herald, paper that IS
bitter in its opposition to Bryan, gives in
Sundays issue what it claims Is careful
canvass made of the various states. Ac-
cording to the estimate of that paper,
Bryan will have 210 votes in the electoral
college and Mckinley 237. In this esti-
mate the New York Herald comedies
Michigan and West Virginia to Bryan
with these remarks: 1.-THE results in West
Virginia and Michigan are exceedingly
doubtful, but the probabilities seem to
incline in Bryan's favor" According to
this Bryan would only need fourteen
votes to elect.
The New York Herald, to make up Nc
Kinley's 237 votes, places in the Mckinley
column Illinois "a votes, Indiana 10, Iowa
10, Kentucky 10, Maryland~S, Delaware 8,
Minnesota 8.
Now, Kentucky, Illinois and Indiana
are more likely to go for Bryan than for
Mckinley. Senator German thinks Mary
land will go for Bryan. Delaware, Mime
sofa and Iowa are at least doubtful. Such
being the case, it seems to us that Bry-
ans election Is sure.

JOHN j. INGALLS, ON GOLD.

"No people, in a great emergency,
ever found a faithful ally in gold. 1t
is the most cowardly and treacherous
of all metals. 1t makes no treaty
that it does not break, 1t has no friend
it does not betray. Armies and ma
vies are not maintained by gold. In
times of panic and calamity, ship
wreck and disaster it becomes the
agency and minister of ruin. No ma
ton ever fought great war by the
aid of gold. On the contrary, in the
crisis of the great peril it becomes an
enemy more potent than the foe in
the field, but when the battle has
been won and peace secured. gold
reappears and claims the fruits Of
VictorN."

LINCOLN'S PROPHESY,

see in the near future crisis ap-
preaching that unnerves me and
causes me to tremble for the safety of
my country. AS a result of the war,
corporations have been enthroned
and an era of corruption in high
places will follow, and the money
power Of the country will endeavor
to prolong it's reign by working upon
the prejudices of the people until all
wealth is aggregated in a few hands
and the republic is destroyed. I feel
at this moment more anxiety for the
safety of my country than ever be-
fore, even in the midst of war. God
grant my suspicious may prove
groundless.

valuable securities to the Southern at a

w. J. Bryan is the idol of the honest
masses of the common people of this re-

encroachments, aggressions and exac-
lions of the aggregated and arrogant
