With the Result OF His Invasion u OF tho
Enen,y's Country. X x S u
l CHICAGO, Sept. 4.-.'I nm perfectly
satisfied with tho result OF MY trip
east said MI. Bryan. ..and my obser-
walton is not based simply on impress
sions formed from the rostrum. To
address people by the tens OF thou
sands as I have done since leaving
Chicago would naturally carry with, It
the Impression that tho audiences adj
dressed were swayed by the utterances
delivered. A speaker Is apt to be car
rid away by such an idea. But when r
say that am satisfied with the result
OF my trip east, l do not mean that
my observations from the speakers
stand have led me to suppose that the
large audiences whom I have addressed
were carried away with the principles
advocated as their applause would Eap-s
pear 70 indicate. My estimate Is based
on entirely different sources. jt
Those whom ] have met and who
have mingled with audiences ut dem
onstrative gatherings, have voluntar-i
lily come forward to assure me that the
sentiment was reering around toward
the Democratic platform. I have taken
dccaslon after leaving the speakers
stand to. talk with men whom I have
observed in the audience as on the
doubtful seat II I might so express my
self, regarding the currency question.
Such men have como to me afterward
and have expressed themselves as
more than half convinced that the ten
cts Of the Chicago platform were after
all the truest In the popular interest.
/ Others have come to me, men who
even disagree with our party prlnci-
pies, and have assured me that the
change IN sentiment toward the free
coinage of silver was something they
had never seen the like Of Added to
this the appreciation which every pub
lie speaker cannot fail to discernin the
eyes OF sympathetic audience has
convinced me that a large proportion
OF the people whom I have addressed
have been impelled to applaud, not out
OF sympathy with the speaker, hut out
+, II speaker be qualified to judge OF the
effect of his speeches or. audiences then
!! think that without egotism I may
say the people whom have met and
addressed are far more enthusiastic in
favor Of free silver than they were
when the campaign began" n
