PASADENA, Oct 21.-At the regular
weekly meeting Of the Bryan club south
Of the Wooster block this evening the
speakers were Henry c. Dillon, ex-dis-
trict attorney, and Judge Phillips, sill
ver Republican of Los Angeles, and they
stirred up vast amount Of enthusiasm.
In spite Of the fact that a heavy mist
almost amounting to rain was falling
during the greater part OF the evening
there were twice as many voters at the
meeting of the Bryan Silver club as
In the sheltered wigwam Of the Repuo-
licans, where James MacLachlan held
forth, and the Bryan rally was by far
the most enthusiastic meeting of the
campaign. c Fl. Harris introduced the
chairman of the evening. Captain Yo-
cum, who remarked that he cast his first
vote for Lincoln twenty-nine days be-
fore he was of age, and he thought he
had been forgiven for 1t. He was as
good a Republican now as then, but
he would vote for Bryan.
Prof. Clark and G. T. Havens sang a
song, after which the first speaker, Hen
~ c. Dillon, was introduced. He said
that he would leave the case Of Jimmy
MacLachlan to his fellow speaker, and
make his address short one. In re-
sponse to Hannas decree already on
the streets Of Los Angeles some yellow
badges could be seen, the yellow flags
which he had been accustomed to asso-
ciate with smallpox. The speaker had
felt the pulses of the people and was
sure the county was for Bryan. He
spoke Of the six amendments to the
constitution. and explained them one
by one. Abolish national loans to prl-
vate parties Make them to munich
palities. Maintain the secresy of the
ballot. On November 4th we will know
the proportion of paid agents of foreign
nations to American citizens who can
not be bought. Corporations control
frage is all right. Mr.. Dillon closed
with tribute to silver Republicans
Chairman Yocum announced that next
Saturday evening in the hall "a in the
open. according to weather and size of
crowd, there would be another meeting
and good speakers. At North Pasadena
next Friday evening Rev. r. E. Dew
would address the club of that city.
Two songs were sung by the North Pas
adena glee club and enthusiastically re-
ceived. after which Judge Phillips of Los
Angeles was introduced. In 1861 4, 00O, 900
black slaves were freed, in 1896, SO, ,OOO, 900
white slaves will be freed. The senti-
ment Of the country is with the labor
ers, the builders fthe nation. The
speaker learned Republicanism Of Lin
coin. That Republicanism has degen-
Grated. The silver Republicans have OBJ
tained a divorce from the old party
who has got too flip for them. They

McLachlan,s speech in the wigwam
were brought over for the Judge to ans

McLachalan-Republ have al
ways been the friends Of silver.
Judge Phillips-Yes, we are the Re-
publicans and Jimmy isn't in 1t.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. has no effect
on value.
Judge Phillips-The stamp on the dol

with their stamp on them they can buy.

McLachlan-Silver will drive gold
away
Judge Phillips-It is not doing 1t. More
Is coming in every day and gold Is not

McLachlan-With silver how shall we
pay our mortgages?
Judge Phillips-Nearly all mortgages

McLachlan-Eighty years prosperity

Judge Phillips-Look at Grover Cleye-

for the gold standard. They cannot be
told apart. Strange bedfellows. Which
is the Republican?
McLachlan-The great issue Is the
tariff.
Judge Philfips-You can't tax the peo-

A SAD SOUVENIR
G. J. Crandall, the photographer who
took the picture of the Americus club,
says that the club had nothing to do with
the arrangements for taking the picture,
and that he was the man who borrowed
the boards from the speaking stand south
Of the Wooster block for the club men,
bers' use in grouping themselves for the
photograph. He says it was the fault
OF the man who carted the boards back
shat they were not replaced where found
This may seem a small matter, but it is
only fair to the club to make the correc-
tion. The pictures are we'll done and
are quite In demand among admirers
OF the club. A set is to be forwarded to
that well known citizen Of Ohio who will
be the most disappointed man in the
Wnited States on the 4th day of Novem-
Der In anticipation of the fact that he
wtltrneed all the consolation he may be
eble ito get from the fact that he was
supported by such good looking body
o. men. 1t will be quite interesting to
the major as souvenir Of what might
have BEEN"
