Meeting Tonight
Hon. M. T. Taylor the Silver rsnyusd Orator
From Colorado

At the W1gWam last evening over
1000 enthusiastic voters gathered to lis
ten to words of wisdom from Hon. Will
liam Craig, Democratic candidate for
elector at large.
The meeting was only up to the stand
ard of the silver gatherings that have
been held during this campaign in Los
Angeles.
The enthusiasm Of the assembled vo-
ters for William ]. Bryan and the great
principles for which he stands 1t Is be-
yond the power of pen to describe.
Every point made by the distinguished
gentleman which went to prove the fal-
lacies and Inconsistencies of William Nc
Kinley and the st. Louis platform was
applauded with vigor and an earnest.
ness such as has never before been seen
in this city.
And the audience. 1t was made up of
q class of men who are the very bone and
sinew of the community, instead of be-
ing either regulators or breeders OF an
archy, as the Times has been endeavor-
ing to persuade people.
William Craig, the orator Of the even
ing, made an excellent impression. He
Is a gentleman not generally known IN
this city, but he ranks high as citizen
and a public speaker.
After an address which lasted over an
hour Mr.. Craig was followed by Judge
j. N. Phillips of the Silver Republican
club. Judge Phillips is an orator whom
the people never tire of hearing, and ne
has a forcible manner of impressing his
hearers with the point he desires to
make which makes him powerful pup
lie pleader in behalf of any cause
which he appears on the rostrum to de-
fend.
While the meeting last night was a
grand success in every way, 1t Will not
compare with the one which is to be
held tonight by the Silver Republicans
