eral John c. Gown OF Omaha delivered
one of his characteristic speeches to 1906

however, confined to Bryans paramount
issue" His arragnment of Bryan, Altgeld
Tillman and the silver syndicate was clean
cut and scathing. His pathetic picture OF

fingers, payable in gold. That plank of the
democratic platform which declares In sub.
stance that the right of the federal gov.
