MANY WILL DIE.
Telegraph poles were torn up and
driven into the ground. A great many
of the wounded are in private houses

to assume that at least one-quarter of
the number injured will die in the next
twenty-fiv hours.

EVENING MEETING.
In the evening a tremendous aud
ience gathered to listen to General
Woodford. His campaigning here in the
greenback craze and since is vividly re-
membered in Ohio, and he was greeted
enthusiastically.
Gen. Woodford in his speech gave a
history of initiation in this and other
countries, and the failure in every case,
and then spoke of free coinage.
General Woodford declared that all the
power of the government, strong as it IS.
could not compel a single owner of gold
bullion or of silver bullion to bring his
bullion to be minted. If he could make two
cents on the dollar by selling it in the
market or by shipping it TO Europe. He
said:
You can never arrange it so that a man
shall be Obliged to lend you thousand
dollars in specie to be repaid by n thou
sand dollars in paper. or thousand dol
lars in gold TO be repaid by thousand
dollars IN silver. IL man uoeS not pt-
lieve in your paper or your silver, he VIII
hold fast to his gold. When men begin to
fear that the government will demand TINS,
they will hide their specie in the cellar.
They will ship their specie across the sea.
They will emigrate. They will save them
selves, for 1t is as certain as human life
that no man will willingly and know!ng-
ly surrender to another man one dollar of
value in exchange for that which he
thinks worth only ninety cents. This Is
human nature. You cannot change 1t.
You can theorize about IT, but you cannot
get away from it,
My countrymen, let us brush away all
theories and all fancies. Let us look facts
squarely in the face. Let us remember
that there are some things which govern
ment can do and some things which gov
ernment cannot do. Government cannot
create life. Government can decree
death. Government cannot make two and
two five. The result of adding two and
two Is four forever. Neither the czar or
all the Russians nor the most eloquent
citizen of Nebraska. backed by all the
Populists and Democrats of this land, can
ever change the laws of arithmetic. the
laws of trade, or the laws of gravitation.
