| lation appeared to be at the depot. Mr..
| Bryan was introduced by II. f. KlutZ,
one of those who seconded his nomina-
ton at Chicago. The nominee spoke
enthusiastically of the state he was In
and after referring TO the fact that An
drew Jackson had been a law student
in Salisbury, he said:
'aTYhe principles for which 1 stand are
the principles taught by jackson, when
he was the idol, not of Democracy
alone, but Of the great common people
whom he had at all times defended.
He spoke of Jefferson's history and re
ferred to the fact that Jackson and
jefferson had been. the object Of abusive
epithets by the money-owning and
money-changing class who proclaimed
against every one who did not bow the
knee to Baal and worship the golden
calf
THE MOTHERS AND WIVES.
Mr.. Bryan then stated that he had
noticed mothers and wives in the audi
ences he addressed, crowding about
the platform, because they especially
have felt the pressure OF the gold STAN
dard.
Living expenses have been reduced"
he contiryued, while the debts and the
taxes of the farmer have been held UP.
II you could enter the homes OF this
nation and see how hope deferred has
made the heart sick; If you could see
parents who, in the hopes Of better
days, have planned for the higher edu-
cation of their children in order that
the children might begin the battle of
life with greater advantages than their
parents, but who have been compelled
to keep the children at home to keep
the wolf from the door, you would I'M
derstand what the gold standard means.
1t means a lower order of civiliza ton,
and If continued we will sink down
where the few own all the wealth and
the many are simply dependent tenants
Our opponents try to divide the toll
ing masses and set the labor1ng men IN
opposition to the farmer. / warn la Dor
er,s not to desert the farmers, who have
been the friends of labor IN every strug-
gle to better their condition. The very
people Who today are attempting TO
use iaboring men TO defeat the farmers
in their just cause are the same people
who have oppressed tabor from the DE
ginning of the world" Great APP

At Lexington, Mr. Bryan spoke three
minutes to a large crowd.
FREE SILVER BANKERS.
AT Greensboro, five bands, a hundred
euuestrianS and q great crowd greeted
Mr.. Bryan. The party dined there and
as soon as the meal was over, Mt.
Bryan spoke from an elaborately decor
ated stand near Washington street.
His speech was largely devoted TO an
arraignment of the recent bond trans
actions and the syndicate5 connected
herewith. Reverting then TO the de-
STABILITY Of the free coinage Of silver,
he said:
"a great many bankers seem to
think IL their duty to support a gold
standard, yet there is no reason why
the western and southern bankers
should be in favor of it. If our bank
ers in the west and south would think
for themselves instead of taking their
opinions ready-Enade from bankers in
New York, who import them from Lon
don, we would have more free silver
bankers
In conclusion. Mr.. Bryan said:
81 am not acquainted with local mat
tiers in your state You have diherence =
among You over t1ss issue. But ] Big
CT yo1 thot You wiz let no-h'ng prevent
the con. ;dation Of all those who pc
keve in the money OF the constitution.
| (Applause) I trust you will allow no
personal differences or local matters
70 prevent you casting the solid and
united vote, not only for presidential
electors, but for members Of congress.
who VIII give president a chance to
vote for free coinage !aw." Gap
