From Timber to Newspaper.

The names of the Plnladt lphia Rec
ord and its proprietor, William NJ. Sim
gerlv, are identified with everything
enterprising and progressive in the
city of Philadelphia.
The Record is the pioneer one cent
morning newspaper of that city, and
brides itself on a circulation of nearly
10000 copies daily, circulation ex-
ceeded only by that of the New York
World. 1t is he peoples paper in
every sense of the word and has been
an ever active factor in prom ting tae
city's welfare aud encouraging munich
pal Improvements. When Mr.. Singer
ly purchased the Record, 10 years ago,
it had but 5000 readers, and its merit
has been recognized by a steady in
crease of nearly 5000 readers every
year since.

al other processes, is run through Il
series of rolls, coming oui finished

nrise 10 the Democratic party. Special
arrangements had been made by Superin-
tendent +. r. Glasgow, for the speaking
10 take place In the machine-shops OF
the plant. and an hour was allowed for
dinner instead Of one-half to three-quar-
ters Of an hour, in order that all the EN-
ployees might attend the meeting. Fully
$50 men. mostly negroes, gathered around
the temporary stand, ana paid rapt at
tention to the speakers, who were Messrs.
d. Preston Parr, OF Bedford city.
for the BoItocrats, who advocated the
principles OF Republlcanism. and Henry
r. Pollard. of this city. whose arguments
in favor OF Bryan and Democracy fire.
quently met with applause.
Mr.. Glasgow escorted the speakers to
the foundry where the speaking took
place. He first introduced Mr.. Parr who
first made an attack on the Democratic
platform and then upon Mr.. Bryan He
recited the stereotyped Bolter money ar
eument. and told his hearers that all
free silver would do would be 10 increase
the price Of commodities. He dwelled
on the effects Of a change in the none
tary system as he anticipated.
Mr.. Parr referred to the amount OF
money now in circulation per capita irr
this country. and decred the adoption
of the free coinage OF silver as destruc-
tive Of the best interests OF the work
ingmen Mr. Parr did not arouse much
enthusiasm, but was applauded at the
close. when he said that Bryan would
not be elected.
MR.. POLLARD'S STRONG REPLY.
After Mr. PARIS speech the assem-
blage of operatives was addressed by
Hon. II. r. Pollard, who made an elo-
quent and ringing speech for the De-
mocracy The speaker dwelt almost en-
tirely upon the effect of the single gold
standard upon the workingmen showing
that under IL there had been 1900 fall
ures in business in 1850. as compared TO
1900 in 1880, when three times as many
men were thrown out OF employment as
In 1850. Mr.. Pollard asserted that gold
monometallism had demora.ized business
and thrown many laborers and mechanics
out Of work. He argued that free and
unlimited coinage Of silver would cause
an expansion OF the currency OF the
country, being about the establishment
OF new and opening up OF old plants,
and would rebound 10 the advantage of
the workingman. He ventured the asser-
tion that there were not one-third as
many men al work at the Tredegar now
as there were in 1873 when silver was
demonetized, and reminded his hearers
that in these times no man there could
tell how long he would hold his job Mr..
Pollard answered very effectively and
with much applause from his hearers.
the arguments of Mr.. Parr and his clos
ing predictions were cheered vociferous-
ly.
one man tried 10 interrupt the speaker
by shouting "HuTrah for McKinleyw
but Mr.. Pollard simply remarked:
There's a man who prefers confidence
TO money" and the crowd shouted in ap-
proyal OF what the speaker had said.
