Sandusky, Oct. 21-The trip of Will
lam J. Bryan through Ohio has been one
OF mismanagement on the part of the
committee Of which Daniel McConville
was the representative. The work de-
manded from Mr.. Bryan has been such
that Monday night the candidate work
ed until a. m, and a in the morning
he was addressing crowds again. The
local committees were allowed to surge
through the car and the train was two
hours late when il reached Sandusky
last night and then Mr.. Bryan found
that he was billed to speak at Tiffin.
The work of the local committees, with
hardly an exception, Was OF a nature
not TO be admired, to say the least.
Last night the nominee as conse-
guence was tired out and when in the
Rarly hour of the morning he succeed
ed in gaining some rest, he was in
good condition TO appreciate it.
Richmond, Ind, Oct. 21.-After a
sound sleep from 100 this morning. the
time when he completed his last spech
at Tiffin, until $50, when he spoke at
Greenville, Mr.. Bryan was refreshed
and in good condition to talk to Hoosier
over during the night in Urbana. Ear
Iy this morning at Bradford Junction
a crowd of several hundred gathered
about the car and yelled for the NOM
inee. At $50 when Greenville was reach
ed, Mr.. Bryan spoke to large crowd
Tor twenty minutes. A great amount
Of enthusiasm was shown and in mis-
speech defending the silver dollar and
answering the 53-cent dollar PROPOSE
tion was received with demonstrations
Of approval
Cambridge City, Ind, Oct. 21-AIr.
Bryan attacked the home of the enemy
In Indiana this morning. Wayne coun-
ty is tie banner Republican county of the
state and Richmond is the stronghold
of Wayne county. There Were yellow
badges at both the meetings that Mr..
Bryan addressed and Shouters for Nc
Kinley were numerous. There We're,
however, a great number of silverites in
the crowds and they yelled loud and Of
ten for the Democratic nominee. In his
second speech Mr.. Bryan declared that
not until a man is willing to give up
faith in American Institutions and go
back on the Declaration of Independence
could he vote for the Republican plat
form. In his first speech at Glenn Mil
Ter park, Mr.. Bryan said in part:
QUOTES MORTON.
''The Republican party processes TO |
continue the present financial system, |
which means a continual issue of bonds |
and continual decrease in the volume |
Of the currency, and that you may under |
stand what others have said on this sub |
ject, i want to quote to you what your |
own townsnfan, who became one of the |
great statesmen OF this county, once
said in regard to the effect of contract |
Ing the currency. The speech can be |
found in volume ?, part /, page &C., of |
the Congressional Record of the Forty |
third congress. He said: Mr.. Presi- |
dent: An advance of money, plenty of |
money, do9s produce enterprise, pros |
perfty and progress. There is no sort of |
doubt about that now. Now, 1 put aside |
all those old theories that my friend Sen |
ator Schurz, can bring from the books. |
If he has brought authority in favor of |
the contraction OF the currency one-half /
Of its present volume I know he can do !
that, but after he has stated all these
commonplaces Of the books, these plati-
tUdes OF finance, there is no vitality in
them. / prefer to take the actual re-
suits and the actual condition of the
country and let theories go TO the dogs.
There is no more vitality in their 1heo-
TICS dS dppllSQ 10 the OF our
country now than there is petrified
snakes. Let us take things as We have
seen them pass under our eyes for the
past ten or fifteen years and take actual |
conditions of the country
There Senator Morton was declaring
against the policy of contraction and We
today are declaring against the same
policy of contraction. There he was as
sorting that an increase in the supply of
money would bring prosperity and pro-
greSs and enterprise and we also assert
the same thing today. We assert that
an INCREASE in the supply of money
VIII reverse the grinding conditions IN
der which we have suffered for the past
few years and the position which we
talse must be approved by anyone pres
ent who viii study the money question
without putting before his eyes enough
gold coin TO blind himself from the
proof"
The second speech was made at the
Hotel Westcott and here the wearers of
yellow badges had congrega ted enmasse.
Mr.. Bryan commented on the badges as
follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen: ANY person
who has an opinion ought to have rea-
