ment his Maker had endowed him with.

He was followed by JERSEY r,ity,s Re-

among whom Diogenes locked in vain

speaker. He said that no Republican cam

Mr.. C0ckran's Reply.

Mr.. Bourke Cochran made his reply
to Mr.. Bryan's speech at the time and
place indicated. He chose Madison
Square Garden, the same forum from
which Mr.. Bryan has spoken, and
would possibly like to have talked to
the same audience. But the same
audience was not there. The speaker
was introduced by Mr.. Perry Belmont
of the great banking firm of Belmont
Morgan & Co. Millionaires stalked
about in numbers, and women ablaze
with diamonds made up large part
of the audience. No policemen stood
on the outside clubbing the people,
as was done the night Mr.. Bryan
spoke. and many other features were
changed for the occasion. Mr.. Cock
ran had been paid large sum by the
monied people to make the speech,
and we hope they got the worth of
their money, and that the hireling
was worthy of his hire.

Even the friends of Mr.. Bourke Cock
ran must be disappointed in the tone
of his speech, which is more sectional
and bitter than any thing yet uttered
by any but the radical South hating
blatant third rate journals and orators.
We little thought Mr.. Cochran capable
of the following ,utterance.
" you submit to the conspiracy

their neighbors, farmers who labor with

thusiastic voters as ever filled the pre-
cints of our old court house. His
speech was SO free from abuse, so well
conceived and SO ably made that he
has not only cemented old friendships
but has made new, and placated his
enemies. Mr.. Flood is a young man
of fine personal appearance. He is a
speaker of marked ability. He is a
man of wonderful energy. He is a
DICTATOR of force, and that he is suf
ficiently able to handle the Hon. ia

larger majority than it has been car
ried for years.
