Another Day of Speeohmaking by
the, Tireless Candidate,
A VERY LIVELY DAY AT MUNOIB


That Town by MIR. Bynum sor the GOLD
Democrats and a Republican Meeting
at Night.
Fort WAYNE, Ind, oct. 22.-William
jennings Bryan invaded Indiana yester-
day, and his reception was u continuous
ovation as he fitted from town to town
HIS first speech was at Greenville, at :3C
a. m, and thereafter he spoke at every
town where the train stopped as long a.
five minutes
Muncie was hotbed of politics when
Mr.. Bryan arrived in the afternoon. Every
man, woman and child wore badge, and
every man, woman and child shouted for
his or her candidates, There were counter
demonstrations An hour after Mr. Bryan
reached the town William ID. Bynum was
to speak TO the gold Democrats, and in the
evening the Republicans were tNlisten to
w. J. Campbell, ex-president of the Glass
Blowers association. All three meetings
were widely adve rtsed. On either side of
the street those who wore the yellow Nc
Kinley badges were lined, and they shouted
for their favorite as the carriage bearing
Mr. Bryan passed by.
1t was distinctively Mckinley crowd
in the city, and just as distinctively u
at the ball park. There he faced an as
semblage of several thousand, and nearly
every person he could see had the name of
the candidate printed on IA slip of white
/ paper and tasted over the hat band. and
/ there was nothing to disturb the harmony
/ of the meeting. On the way back to the
train the demonstration for Mckinley was
renewed but was checked to "a great cN-
tent by the shouting of the crowd of sill
verites who marched about the vehicle.
A cheering jam of humanity to the eX-
tent of several thousand people welcomed
/ the candidate to Anderson, when at 4.al
he arrived there. Out on the open prairie
stand had been erected In his Anderson
speech Mr.. Bryan said in part:
They accuse IL of arraying class against
class. | want to say TO you that the di.
vision which we make in society between
the money changer and the wealth pro-
ducer is a difference that has been made
by all the public men who have spoken in
the past, and everybody knows that the
man who profits by rising standard is an
entirely different man from the man who
produces wealth and exchanges that
wealth for money. l could cite you what
Blaine said, l could quote from sherman,
Carlisle and any number Of men. Aye,
might quote from Mr. Mckinley himself.
but l want to read to you from what an
other distinguished Republican has said.
l want to read to you what Benjamin
Butterworth, ex-congressman from Ohio,
said, only last spring, in Il letter which
was published by order of congress:
1t is folly to suppose that the capital
lists of England, and they are the capiCal-
lists Of The world will be easily persuade,
to agree or consent to bimetallism. Why
should theyy How is it to their interest
to do so while we consent to make it to
their advantage to refuse; They have
doubled the value Of their credits by de-
mOnetizing silver, and thus in effect
double the interest received by them. The
United States blundered into that trap.
and within year beggared II million of
her citizens, and if we adhere to the
blunder will beggar five millions more
and double the burden Of every debtor
and every burdenIbearer in the land.
AT Alexander, Summitville, Marion
Blutfton and Fairmount Mr.. Bryan re.
ceived tlattering receptions. The crowds
were large and enthusiastic At one of
the Indiana towns Mr.. Bryan was pre-
sented with glass stylus by the Glass
Workers association made of national
colors and of beautiful designs.
Mr.. Bryan addressed three monster
meetings last night in Fort Wayne. The
first was at the Wayne hotel, and when
Mr.. Bryan spoke from the balcony of that
hostelry the big double block in front was
packed to such an extent that the windows
were broken in by the crowd. 1t was sew
eral minutes before Mr.. Bryan could make
E himself heard, and when he did get to
talking he was often stopped by the APP
plause. The next meeting was at Princess
, Rink, and that large edihce was packed to
/ its doors. Here, too, the crowd was dem
onstrative and three minutes of applause
p greeted him on his entrance. His vigor.
r Gus attack on the gold Democrats met
with a ready response in the sympathies
p of the audience. The last speech was made
: at Swngerbund Hall, and here again he
- was mcG with an enthuSa 'tIc reception.
