SENATOR BLACKBURN NEXT
Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky. who next
addressed the meeting referred at the outset to
the bolt that had occurred In the Democratic
party but as an offset he said there had been
boilers also on the other side. For thirty years,
he went on the Democratic party had given the
Democratic Presidential nomination TO New
Workers. and now for the first time In those
years they had a standard bearer from the
West. After spending some time on the quail
fcations possessed by Mr. Bryan for the highest
Office In the gift Of the people the speaker pro-
ceeded to aude to the Chicago platform. No
perversity, either human or deviish. he declared,
could divest II of its true meaning. 1t sounded
against the continued rule of trusts and
syndcates and he urged also that II was set
against the increasing Of the burdens OF the
taxpayers by issuing bonds In times OF peace.
For the most part. the rest Of Senator Black
burns remarks were devoted to a Identification OF
the Cleveland Administration. for the great in
crease in the taxation Of the country and of the
class of people whom he termed plutocrats. and
who. he sail. were opposed to the interests of the
people at large.

good reception followed Senator Blackburn. Mr..
Williams spoke for some forty-flve minutes half
Of which time h. used in euloglzing Mr.. Bryan.
He kened the Presidential candidate to such
men as jefferson and jackson. and protested that
in Mr.. Bryan were combined the virtues and abil-
tiles Of the two men To whom he had referred.
From the fact that Mr.. Bryan nominated on
July 10 NJ Williams drew favorable augury Of
success. On that date. he asserted. Christopher
Columbus discovered America. and Andrew Jack
vetoed the bill for the rechartering Of the
United States Bank. ana as consequence fought
and finally defeated the then existing money
power. just. he maintained as Bryan would next
November defeat the 1nanciers and gold-stand
ard supporters. Mr.. Williams after praising
Tammany Hall for its loyalty to the party, vigor-
ously condemned the leaders who had refused TO
accept the Chicago platform. and stigmatized
them as traitors to their party. whose only policy
and aims were the seeking Of wealth and self
advancement.
When Mr.. Williams ended there were cries In
turn for Senator Grady, st. john Ridgway. Sulzer
and others. but all had left the place. Finally
Judge MacMahon was prevailed upon 10 make
short address. and the meeting closed with cheers
