HIGH MONEY. LOW TIMES.
Mr. Bryan Says That Phrase Strikes the
 Keynote of Political Moonoay.


 Lsxhgton is said to be the citadel of the gold sentiment Of Kentucky. Yet ii turned out--it and the regions round aboat-fully 40, GOO people to greet MT. Bryan.
 The Lexington procession, which came off in the rain, was a striking fea- ture. Il was made up Of horsemen and was fully five miles in length.
 MT. Bryan was interrupted by the passing of the procession for 26 minutes. When it had passed, be continued:
 FELLOW CITIZENs-I have been in- terrupted in the midst of speeches be- fore, but I can say to you that of all this is the most pleasant interruption of which l have recollection. l shall re- member this speech which was cut in two by the most remarkable parade which it has ever been my good fortune to witness. And they bore banners which presented notices which make any further speaking unnecessary.
 If l were to talk to you from now until night, could not more than em- phasize the notices which have passed fn procession by you. noticed one mot 10, drawn with letters not altogether according to the latest patterns, but it represented a sentiment that ought to find i9dgment i'll the memories of all --thGf Is, L. .3h Honey, Low Times.
 ''I challenge you to find in any of the speeches that will be made this year by the opponents of free silver single sen- tenoe that contains as much of political economy and common sense as is con- tained ill that phrase, high money, low times It seems that those things which are hidden from those who are themselves all wise are revealed unto those who in the estimation of the finan- ciers are but babes and sucklings I saw another motto, Our Barns Are Full, but Our Pockets Are Empty And in that sentence is epitomized 20 years of farming history.
 Nature smiles upon your husband ry, your soil gives forth in rich profu- sion, but according to the experience of the farmer, with all that he can do with his industry, with his economy, with all his patient toll, he finds that the load of the American farmer grows hard CT every year.
 "In modern times, under the rule of those who ruled and swept the saber, ns they said, by divine right, complaint was answered with the lash, but now the just complaint of the toiling mil lions of the United States is answered by charges that they are anarchists and socialists.
 My friends, there is one unfortunate thing in connection with the use of the word anarchist as applied to those who are banded together to restore the money of the constitution-there is one unfortunate thing about it. Anarchy is q thing not to be considered in land like this Anarchy can have no home among the people who have the ballot to right their wrongs. And the unfor tunate thing about this campaign is that the name anarchist is applied to thu bone and muscle of this country by men who are doing more to overthrow our government than any anarchist who ever carried a red flag.
 .I say that when this word anarchist is applied to the toiling millions by men who seek without toll to usurp the fruits and reap the rewards of those who toil the danger is that it will make the name respectable because of its associa- tion.
 ''I protest against the use of that name for the purpose which deprives it of all its terrors. My friends, those who are opposed to us cannot afford to place the farmers of this country i'll the posi- tion cf enemies of the government, be- cause they are tse only friends that any government ever had.
 My friends, these very men who are abused and despised by those who dcgbt the capacity of the masses for self gov ernment-these are the very people who in time of emergency must protect their calumniators from themselves and their associates. My friends, there is not a syndicate that has preyed upon the pub- lie which would not rather try it's case against another syndicate before the common people of this country than be- fore a jury made mp of a syndicate.
 "Now, just one word more. There was one motto that impressed me more deep 5 tisn any other motto, and want you to carry that motto home with you when you leave this place and bear it in your memories every day, so that you can read it when you rise up and again when you go to bed, so that it will be a part Of your political life It is a short motto and contains but few letters. It was, We Mean Business. '
 If under free silver law our foreign debtors think they would be robbed. they can prevent that by adopting similar laws and keepins. the silver dollar equal to the
