s. 90 and iwo FOR 1890 each and that campbell
also gave to him Meyer another bill or sac, al
lcging that the property was unencumbered except

HOUSE IN POLAND WHERE MKINLEY LIVED
WHILE ATTENDING THE SEMINARY
by special trains to nearly every State east Of
the Missouri River, and into the South for more
than eight weeks he made on an average seven
speeches a day Of from ten minutes to an hour
in length. 1t was estimated that more than two
million people heard him in that campaign. and
that many times that number cheered him as he
passed through the country fast special trains
and as he was driving through the streets of the
city No man ever undertook such campaign
before, and there are few who could have en-
dured the physical and intellectual fatigue Of the
work put upon him. But neither in mind nor
body did he show a sign Of WEAKNESS until the
campaign was ended and the victory won. If
the defeat Of 1890 had been his defeat, the i'm
measurably greater triumph Of 1894 was etill
more his triumph.
His words on protection in 1894 we have already
recalled. Let us also repeat some other Of his Ut
terances on comparably weighty themes. In the
Ohio campaign of 1891 his Democratic opponent
for the Governorship Mr.. Campbell. running on
platform which declared for free and unlimited
coinage of silver" declared himself willing TO
chance 1t on free silver" To this Mckinley re-
piled. in his opening speech Of the campaign at
Niles, on August %. as follows:
