Kansas City. Mo-, Sept 12-William Jen-
nings Bryan made two speeches in Kansas
Citv this morning, one to the worlkingmen
Of the two Kansas cities in the packing
house district, the other to vast crowd
of people at the corner of Eleventh street
and Grand avenue, up town. The Armour
,eonle gave all their employees an hour to
see and hear Bryan Mr.. Bryan was met
at I,eavenworth by a special committee to
escort him to this city, where he arrived
at $50 o'clock. At o'clock he addressed
a crowd of 10000 workmen in the Bottoms.
He spoke as follows;
Fellow Citizens: This is little earlier
than usually commence my morning
work. Gaughter) l am very glad to be
able to speak to you, even for moment.
Some of our opponents tell us that the
thing to do is to open the mills instead
oC the mints That reminds me of the
man who said his horse would go all
right If he could just get the wagon
started. daughter and applause) 1t is
putting the cart before the horse. What
use are the mills unless the people can
buy what the mills produce, and how can
YOU start them as long as those who
Al. = L inv
ticularly the farmer, are not able to get
enough out of what they raise to pay their
taxes and interest (Applause.) There is no
more effective way of destroying the mar
kets for what the mills produce than TO
lower the prices of the products the farm
er has raised so that they will not bring
him enough to pay him for raising them.
There was a report once hled py Mr.. NC
Kinley in 1890 along with the Mckinley
bill, and that report declared that there
was great industrial depression, and that
while there was depression in agricui-
ture there could be no prosperity any
where. 1t was true then, and 1t is true
to-day, that while there is depression in
agricultural products there can be no
prosperity anywhere. You must COM
mence at the bottom and work up through
the other classes. You cannot commence
your prosperity at the top and expect It
to work down through all the classes of
society. (App.ause.) You gentlemen, who
live in this city, surrounded by an agrt-
cultural country, know that there is no
way of bringing prosperity to Kansas
City until you first bring prosperity 10
the toilerS upon whose success Kansas
City rests. (Applause) 1t does not re-
Quire f1nanciers, it does not require a rail-
road attorney to tell you where your pros
perity lies. Great applause) Nor can
these men prevent you from exercising
tie right of sovereignty as your please.
(Applause)
A Voice-"They are trying to do it,"
My friends, met a railroad man yester-
day who told me that while he did not
agree with me on the silver question, an
issue had been raised greater than the
silver question, and that was whether he
lived in a republic, where a man had the
right to vote as he pleased or whether he
is the property of somebody else, to be
used as somebody else pleased. (Cheers).

Another voice-"Put Kansas down for
10000"
Another voice-"And Arkansas is all.
right"
Mr.. Bryan-That sounds very much like
one of those meetings, where they take up
a collection. When you talk about the
results of an election, the people from the
'"'iOuS obdlCS VIC with edcH OlueT 70 St6
who can make it nearest to unanimity
My friends, there is one characteristic
ABOUT this campaign, and that is the in
tense earnestness of the people. Some
times, in a campaign, you find men luke
warm, people who do not know whether
they are going to the polls or not, and
sometimes you find it necessary to get
carriages to take the people to the polls
Unless all the signs fail, there will be no
use for carriages this year. Unless all
the signs fail, the people are going to be
at the polling places before the booths
open and stay there until the close, and
there won't be man who can get to the
polls but who will be sure to be there
what does it mean? 1t means
that the neonle are takine,
the interest in the, election that
the people ought always to take. They are
oeglnning to understand the value of the
Dalot as the means by which they can re-
Gress their wrongs. Sometimes people
nave complained that the laws were bad
ana have allowed them to remain bad.
lhey nave complained that they ought to
ue better and have done nothing to make
them better. II the laws are bad, they
themselves are to blame, and if they wish
good laws they must secure them them
serves. And this interest means some-
thlhg. 1t means that the government is go
ing TO be made more nearly what the gov
eInment ought to be, and that is a gov
eInment which will protect the humblest
eltzen in the land in his right to work
ana enjoy the fruits of his toll. Great ap-
pause and cheerlng)
