BATH Me-, Sept. 26-The Brvanl
party reached Bath at O'clock thtst
evening and were driven directly I'd
MT. SeWalis home, where dinner was
served The big meeting of the night
was held in Custom House square. It
was probably the greatest night in the
history OF this quaint little town. The
entire population turned out to meet
the train Cannon were discharged and
there were fireworks all around
MI. Bryan and Mr. Sewa1 appeared
on the platform at SAB When Mr.
SeWall stepped to the front to intro
ouce his running mate tremendous
roar went up. When Mr. Bryan hn-t
1shed his speech there was a great
demonstration. Those who had lis
tened to him crowded about the stand
and clambered' over one another in an
enort to shake hands When he was
hnally rescued the crowd sent up three
cheers and the candidate was ouiekIu
driven to Mr.. SewaIrs house for a daI
or rest before resuming his iourneN
tomorrow night \
After few compliments to Mr Sewau Mr. /
pryaH sald: we are not for free coinage tol
neIp the mine owner, or because silver is pro-
auced IN the United States We would be AL
heartily In favor of free coinage IL not an
Iiau U0eH produced the Initedl
State; we are for gold as we'll as for silver
put hold that gold should not demand a
monopoly of coinage. If silver were given
free coinage and gold were excluded we vonI1
be for the free coinage of gold Any mepev
mat is legal tender and viii pay debts and
taxes, whether it be gold or silver or green
Dacks, is good enough for U.S.
Mr. Bryan then argued on the science of
money IN the course of which man in the
audience said IF you buy silver at the
present price. how much can Won ret If nad.
re- nj
ME- Bryan-Under the present law Won
coulo not have It coined at all. "a voice:
answer the question:
am going to. Under the present law vo,r
coulo not get it coined at all but under ths
s sree coinage of silver you cannot find man
1901 enough to sell you the silver ct less than
the coinage value. CA voice '.But The go
ernment stands back of i'm
Mr. Bryan-The treasury would not hack
saeer fbn la any more than it backs gold. That is
S sne soio standard idea that you have got to
pacK- something. Bimetallism gives YOU two
moneys 0, which back themselves.
NJ Out opponents talk about food of silver
ana we are not Hooded with gold TO any great
eA.ent. suppose free coinage law is in
SSd s1dstence; @ m and suppose some foreigner who
olo not like us were to come here for the
express purpose of hurting us with his siT-
yer, could he do it? He would bring enonah
silver bullion to have made a thousand dr1-
lars The government would take the hnlIion
stamp it and hand the dollars back To him
how how would he hurt us? j know what yoii
say thdt he VIII drdQe his silver for
gold and take his gold awav win be9
Where will he get the gold? Go to the treas
ury and get 1t? Not under bimetallism The
government does not agree to swan sdoIlars.
What else could he do? He could trade Sill
yer for something else. Something We have
TO sell, and if that man will let us knows
when he is coming we will meet him at the
train with brass band. and escort him.
through town and show him the property we
will be glad to exchange.
Information reached the Bryan party
today that the New York newspapers
had printed story to the effect that
Mr.. Bryan had demanded the with
drawal Of John Boyd Thacher from tha
head of state ticket in New York, this
action having been determined upon
at a conferense between Mr.. Bryan and
Bernard York. In Brooklyn last week
Mr.. Bryan was plainly surprised when
approached on the subject, but his cnly
answer was: You may say that Mr.
Bryan refuses to discuss New York;
politics.
