Tuesday night last an unfortunate az
fair occurred in front of our CITY Hall
A lot of small boys had followed Iie
band up the street and gathered IN
front Of the hall. When Mr.. Randall
attempted to speak the boys called Ior
more music. No insult was intended
and it was Just the cry of lot OF boys.
Mr. Randall took it all in good point.
Mr.. Supplee then went out to speak,
the crowd in the meantime growing
larger. More calls for music was mace

to quiet the crowd, but retired when

New York City Issues Gold
Bonds.

There was method in the madness
of those rich corporations that helped
to bring that load of gold to this coun-
try. They see the handwriting ON the
wall and mean to profit by it. The
City of New York some time ago adj
vertised sale of bonds for building
school houses. They were just ordi-
nary, every day bonds, and were pay
able in the money of the people-gold
or silver as the circumstances allowed.
The rich did not want them and the
poor could not buy them. Now comes
the startling announcement that that
city has issued bonds payable premium
and interest in gold. That is how the
gold bugs wanted it and they waited
until they got them. Who will be ben
Gifted by this unjust decision of the
Comptroller of New York? Our readers
know only too well. 1t is just another
case of the syndicates and the govern
ment in the recent gold bond deals.
These are the men and corporations
who have been instrumental in bring
ing about the silver agitation. They
are fighting it to the end, but it will
win. This country must have bimet-
allism, and that before our government
is burdened down with debt and inter-
est on gold bond issues.

Free Speech-No Interruption.

It is more than unfortunate that so
distinguished fellow-citizen as the
Secretary of the United States Treas
ury, should have met with such dis
graceful treatment as was given him
in Covington, KY, some days ago. It
was disgrace, and should be heartily
denounced. Likewise do we denounce
the shameful and disgraceful action of
the Yale students, who booted and
yelled at Mr.. Bryan, the nominee of
one Of the great parties of our country.
More disgraceful still WIS the action of
the student or students of the College
in Chicago, who threw eggs at Mr.. and
Mrs. Bryan and their followers few
days ago. We also regret the noise
made by the boys, in this city, on
Tuesday night last. No political meet
ing should be interrupted or disturbed
by those not in sympathy with the
All should have right to
hold meetings and they should not be
interrupted BY men or boys.

To Work, Democrats !

Will the Democratic Central Com
mittee prove to the Democrats of their
districts that they are worthy of the
confidence and trust reposed in them.
They have duties before them. They
must look to the Democratic vote of
their districts. Every voter must be
gotten to the polls. Efforts will be made
to keep Democrats at home. Have
your list of voters ready and see that
they are sent for in time. Remember,
the polls open at 8 o'clock and close at
6 O'Clock. Now let us see which will
be the banner district of the county.
To work, Democrats, to work!

How strange it is that we have to
look to Epgland whenever we want a
supply of gold. just now the gold pa
pers say that the yellow metal is coming
over this way at a great rate. Yes,
and that is no joke. The rate that has
to be paid foreign bankers and brokers
in exchange and bank interest is great.
And it always will be as long as we adj
here to the present gold standard.
We are Americans and we want Amer
lean money, gold and silver. We
want currency that will be equally
valuable to the rich and poor alike.

The City Press Misleading the
People.

1t is surprising that the influential
press of the Metropolitan cities will
seek to mislead the people upon ques-
lions of the pending election. Whilst
we have unhesitatingly urged our
readers to cast their ballots for Bryan
and Lee, we are frank to admit that
we do not fear ruin and destruction
should Mckinley and Mcdonald sue
coed in this contest. This is great
country and no party can plunge 1T
into despair. We all may have our
theories and honest convictions, but
after all the Union will flourish be, the
result what it may. OF course, we be-
lieve that if Mckinley is elected
things will go on as they have done for
the past twenty years, lbenefitting to
great degree the favored classes. In
the election of Bryan we think a
change of Legislation will confer greater
blessings upon the masses and that the
benefits of government will be more
equally distributed among the people.
Mr.. Bryan is no more an anarchist
than Mckinley. Bryan loves his
country as much as Hanna. We be-
lieve that Bryan would gladly respond
to his country's call at moments no
tice and has as much patriotism as
Pierpont Morgan. In the election of
Bryan we do not fear the destruction of
prosperity and than if Nc
Kinley should succeed. The great
press of the country should he the ed
ucator of the people. Misleading state
ments will only prove the animus with
which they discuss the great public
questions of the day. Let the Republic
can managers look well to the future,
for in the event of McKinley's election
they have many promises to fulfill
Let all be treasured of the fact, that
the American people will reign supreme
throughout the land whether times are
better or not.

The Closing Hours-Both Sides
Confident.

The latests reports from the great
west is to the effect that Bryan is still
drawing thousands of people to hear
him. This is no longer walk over on
the part of the Republican managers.
No contest was ever more earnestly
waged. Every foot of ground has been
fought over, whilst millions have been
squandered in campaign expenses.
To-day both parties are claiming the
victory. The Democratic managers
are as jubilant over the result of the
past months work as are those at Re-
publican headquarters. The Demo-
cratic managers figure upon majority
of the electoral votes whilst the same
is claimed by the Republicans. The
silver question has at last been brought
prominently before the people, and
many have given the subject the most
serious consideration. Until it is over
whelmingly relegated to the rear in
American politics it will be like Ban
quo's ghost. Therefore it is that
many would like to see decisive settle
ment of this question. On Wednesday
morning next sufficient amount of
information can be obtained to clearly
indicate the result. We will have at
the CITIZEN Office on Tuesday night
and Wednesday after the election al
the latest news. All our friends will
be welcomed.

LETTER FROM NEBRASKA.
A High Tribute to the Worth OF
Mr.. Bryan by Former Resi-
dent of Middletown, Mr.. A
w. Smith.

The following letter was recently re-
ceived in Middletown from Mr.. ~. w.
Smith, of Lincoln, Nebraska, foimer
resident of MiddletowD:
.sYou have written me asking me To
wife you and let you know "hat L
know about w. J. Bryan, the candl-
date for the Presidency. / have re-
ceived q number of these requests. ana
in answer will say l am personally ac-
ouainted with him aud have been tor
some seven years. and employed nun
as nv attorney on several occasions
and his services were entirely satlsfac-
tory to me. He does not want all you
can get out of a case, and note for the
balance of his charges A poor man
can employ him without fear of being
overcharged. He has great big, kind
heart in him, therefore not rich. He
was elected to Congress twice from this
Congressional District, which is Re
publican by over 5000. L do not re
member his majority, but it was good
round majority. Hence you will see he
is highly esteemed even by the Repub-
licans. His services as Congressman
were satisfactory to. the Republicans as
well as Democrats and others who re-
elected him. AS you are well aware,
he fought the Cleveland administra-
ton, attacking President Cleveland
ON his bond issue fearlessly. NOtwith-
standing Cleveland threatened him if
he did not yield he would take away
his right toappoint postmasters and
other officers in the State, but he was
true to his convictions and did not
yield to coercion; making himself more
dear 10 the hearts of the people and
more worthy of their confidence.
AS citizen his example is worthy of
imitation by young and old. He neither
drinks Intoxicating drinks, smokes
cigars or chews tobacco, uses no bad
| language, as his speeches so plainly
show. He is an upright christian gen.
tleman, one who is not naughty and
and hlgh-minded, but is plain man,
and will not pass a poor laboring man
by without notice. To know him is but
to love and admire him. No city or
county can boast of a man more noble
and poor. No purer, nobler mau was
ever nominated for President of this,
! the greatest nation under the sun.
The great wise men of the East tell
us that if we have free coinage of silver
and gold that our silver dollar will he
worth only so cents, and in the same
breath they say the niue will get rich.
A school boy knows both cannot be
! true.
My sons have voted the Republican
ticket, but when j. Pierpont Morgan
captured the st. Louis convention and
Mckinley went back on his former
record on silver, they shed their Me
Kinley badges and joined the Bryan
club, and will vote with me for the
greatest orator, statesman and CHAM
pion of the farmer. laborer and poor
mans friend in America. So will thou
sands of Republicans and Prohibition
lists. We have Republican club Of
nearly 500, besides club of old sol
diers numbering 200 or more, known
as the Republican Bryan Clubs"

Vote For Lee, the Peoples Candi-
date.

In our issue of last week we called
upon our Democratic friends in Wash
ington, Allegany and other counties in
our district to make one grand effort to
secure the election of Bryan and Lee.
We, at least, have been fortunate IN
having in our midst during the past
two weeks the gentleman who has
been selected as the Democratic NOM
inee for Congress In every county In
the district Mr.. Lee has presented
his claims for election; he has been
fair and frank in all his public dis
cussions; in his personal intercourse
with both Republicans aud Democrats,
he has fully demonstrated the fact that
he can be approached at all times
should he be entrusted with the re-
sponsibility of a Congressman for this,
one of the most important districts in
the country. He is entitled to the sup
port of every Democrat in the district.
No fair minded Republican should hes
itate to'give him their support, for he
will honestly represent their interest.
Mr.. Lee should be the peoples nomi-
nee. Let the Republicans elect Mr..
Mcdonald, and from the very nature
of things he will be partizan and will
take sides with one of the factions
which has brought such disgrace to the
Republican party in this district. The
Wellington and the anti-WellingtOn
factions will simply continue their fac
tional fights; it will be a contention for
spois and some one is bound to be left.
In Aliegany and Garrett there are
thousands of honest Republicans who
can depend upon their interest being
cared for by Mr.. Lee. In the agricul-
tural counties of Washington, Mont
gomery and Frederick every sense of
seli-prote should induce the farm
ers to lay aside political preiudices and
seek by every honorable means to Sc
cure the election of Mr.. Lee. We ask
our farmers, our merchants and the
laborers who have met Mr.. Lee, if he
is not typical American. He can
boast of deeds of valor by his ancestors
who battled for American Indepen-
dence; the blood of his people was
shed upon many battlefield, when
we were fighting against the tyrany Of
English oppression. Mr.. Lee is true
American citizen in every sense of the
word; he was born in old Montgomery;
his father and mother, as well as all his
people were born here in America, "the
land of the free and the home of the
brave" Why, therefore, cannot the
people, irrespective of party, trust him,
since he is known to be honest and
capable, and able in every way to
serve the people of the Sixth District
of our State. Vote for Lee.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1896-10-30

DIR. d. E. SToNB, of Mt. Pleasant
District, is one of the most ardent and
enthusiastic silver men in Frederick
County. He is Prohibitionist of
high standing, but takes the stand that
a vote for Bryan this fall means vote
for the rights of the people. A large
Prohibition vote will be given for the
Democratic nominee in all parts of the
country. DIR. Stone has taken the
stump for Bryan and Lee in this coun-
ty and has delivered some telling
speeches. He will speak at Lewis
town on October 31st.

For the past thirty years the Demo-
cratic candidates for the Presidency
have come from the great State of New
York. For the first time in that period
the standard-bearer has been chosen
from section of the country which is
each day becoming more prosperous
and important. The West and the
South always have lent her aid in
support of the New York candidate and
to her aid in 1891 and 1893 Mr.. Cleve-
land owes much for his political SUI
premacy. But now when the Demo-
cratic party has seen fit to honor a son
OF Nebraska with the Presidential
nomination, the leaders in New York
State with some exceptions) and even
Mr.. Cleveland renounce their heritage
and advocate the election of the party
whom they SO bitterly denounced in
the past. If this is true Democracy
we certainly have not understood the
true meaning of the word. We believe
in the will of the majority and
will always bow to the same. BRYAN
and Sewall represent the true Democ-
racy of the nation and the people will
see that they are elected.

OLD Baltimore is waking up and
things are mighty lively. Meetings
are being held every night, and it looks
as if the RAIDS, in spite of the election
machinery given into their hands last
year by Democrats, would have hard
time in keeping Baltimore in the Re-
publican ranks The Republicans are
claiming the State by great big major
tiles, feeling sure the election machin-
cry is worth several thousand votes to
them. The people are getting together
and Bryan will make a gallant fight
for the city. We shall see.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1896-10-30
The Republican Meeting.

Well, the great Haffner meeting has
taken place. Mr.. Wellington has
given his prediction for %, 900 majority
for Mckinley. We shall see The
Haffner people have captured Yelling
ton, and now they have Mcdonald,
and Haffner is recognized as the chair
man of the Republican Committee.
The money brought by Wellington
was given to Haffner and the Motter
faction was left in the cold. This is
only the first dodge; next time the
Haffner crowd will be left. The meet
ing was good sized one, five bands of
music were in attendance and Yelling
ton administered rebuke to Motter
by making Haffner chairman, who
predicted all kinds of victory. Nc
Donald-well the crowd has seen him.
He made Two minutes speech full of
patriotism for his adopted country.
Mr.. Randall, of Philadelphia, made a
very pleasing address aud so the meet
ing closed.

The several Bryan and Sewall clubs
throughout the city and county have
been power for good this year. Not
only have they added especial prestige
to the campaign, but also they have
rendered valuable assistance in
the dissemination of educational litera-
ture and personal instruction to their
friends. They have helped in the or
ganization of the people to support
Bryan, Sewall and Lee in this great
fight, aud to their efforts will be due
in great measure the flattering vote
the candidates will receive in this
county.

Vote For Lee.

WASHINGTON COUNTY farmers, like
their brother farmers in Frederick
County, have been greatly pleased with
our candidate for Congress, Mr.. Blair
Lee. Many Republican farmers will
vote for Mr.. Lee in Washington Coun-
ty and many honest Republican farm
ers in this county will gladly give him
their votes. Let the Democrats see
that every man who hopes for better
times vote for Mr.. Lee.

The National Republican Commit
tee have called upon Wall street to
furnish more funds for the campaign.
The best way to comprehend Bryan's
chances of election is to watch
the maneuvers of the enemy.
They are moving heaven and
earth to defeat him, especially, in the
doubtful States, and yet they say that
Mckinley will win in walk. Bryan's
chances are growing brighter every
day.
