listened to free silver doctrine from
William j. Bryan at $3.50 o'clock this
morning. A large crowd applauded
him enthusiastically. The special train
was taken across the straits OF Macki-
nae at o'clock. Bryan talked TO the
people of Mackinac. He explained that
a dollar with the stamp of the United
States was worth 100 cents the world
over, and when asked about the 5S-cent
dollar by one OF his audience answered
with his usual explanation in such a
manner as to somewhat embawass the
questioner.
At Petosky Bryan spoke to several
hundred. Many wore yellow badges
marked AN honest dollar" Noticing
these the candidate demanded to know
whether the phrase referred to the gold
standard or free silver. A voice an
swered Sixteen TO one." and this sat
isfied Bryan. for he said no more about
1t, proceeding with his discussion Of
the silver doctrine.
Fair-sized crowds also greeted him
at Charles River and Bellaire. where
the nominee made five-minutes ad-
dresses. He went over the ground al
ready covered by him. dilating upon
the right of the American people to
oust from office by their franchise the
candidates who have proved unworthy

United States. II calls attention to the
clause OF the democratic platform re-
lating to the civil service and tnen
proceeds TO deny the chief allegations
therein. Continuing. the address says:
THE platform and declarations Of Mr..
Bryan In his letter indicate that there
is to be a complete partisan recon-
struction OF the civil service with the
restoration OF the spolls system. No
new legislation is necessary to accom-
plish this result. The mere election oe

service rules in accordance with this
principle will restore the spoils system
as It existed during the worst period
OF our political history. with its evils
greatly multiplied. owing to the growth
and complexity Of the government SER

The address praises the civil service
and concludes: THE merit system
the product OF a generation OF progress
will, II the principles Of the Chicago
platform be enforced, be destroyed at
a single blow: the business OF the gov
ernment will be thrown back into
chaos. The cost OF it's maintenance Will
