SACRAMENTO, CAL. July s.-The ex-
curslonists arrived In he Capital City at
$40 P. N. and realized that the city OF
railroad shops was not one whit beyond
Los Angeles in the magnitude and hearth
ness OF its welcome to the ex-candldate OF
the Democracy. Ii the committee from
the lroquois Club that arranged the affair
is as handy in making political fight as
it is in arranging the details of political
reception, the Democracy OF Republican
Sacramento will have no cause to COM
plain in the future. The spacious depot,
brilliantly Illuminated with purple and
orange incandescent electric lights IN
honor OF the Christian Endeavorers, was
swarmiug mass of weIcomers, the pretty
girls and handsome women attired in airy
summer costume with corsage bouquets OF
roses and carnations.
The local train from San Francisco,
bearing Governor Budd, who was to pre-
side at the meeting, arrived five minutes
later, and Mr.. Bryan and his party
waited in its car out OF courtesy to the
Governor until he had alighted The
first man out of the car was Assembly
man Shanahan, and he assisted the Gov
ernor to an open carriage in waiting. Mr..
Budd was sorely crippled with the gout
and leaned heavily upon crutch. Mr..
Bryan and the Governor were placed in
one carriage and the remainder of the
party followed in like vehicles. A big
procession OF the Iroquois and other
Democratic clubs followed the carriages
down Second 10 K street and thence to
Tenth street, to Eleventh, to Fifteenth
and to tie big pavilion where the State
fairs are held.
All along the route the enthusiasm OF
the Sacramentans was displayed in the
glare OF red fire and the meteoric rain of
roman candles, ard ali along the line
stood the popu ace bY the thousands,
blocking up the sidewalks and encroach-
ing upon the streets. This was for a dis
tance OF more than q mile, and the magni-
tude OF the outpouring is best illustrated
by the fact that when the head OF the
parade reached the pavilion the building
was packed with 10000 people and the
thousands on the streets outside were
obliged to remain there.
As Sacramento had surpassed the rest
of the State in her turnout in point of
nun bers and enthusiasm, so she sur
passed even favored Los Angeles in the
wealth and exquisite taste of her floral
offerings The top raI OF the speakers
platform was swathed IN red, white and
blue bunting, and telow that the entire
'front.', 100 feet wide, was a solid mass of
flowers, ian-palm leaves, potted ferns and
tropical palms in endless variety.
Mr.. Bgyan was not IN tie best of voice
He was hoarse-distressingly so 10 him
self. Even IN the N ost forcible and q m
phatic periods his larynx broke and fut-
tered. His speech was heard by those
within a radius of 100 feet and that was
doing remarkably well, considering that
mob of young boys in the galleries was
making as much noise as though the
youngsters were playing a baseball game
+. l. Woodman of Sacramento opened
the meeting by introducing the Governor
as the chairman, and The Governor, val
iantly and detiantly shouting into the
great void of space between the roof of
the big nall and the heads of the people,
Mr.. Bryan as 'tthe people's
champion and the next President Of the
United States" Then the Governor, hold |
ing a handkerchief tightly griDped in his
right hand, proposed three cheers, and
they were given fortissimo.
Mr.. Bryan began by announcing that he |
had met Senator White and had learned /
TO love MN CHeeIbl, duQ tndt he alsO |
loved Congressman Mcguire Ttumultuous
and long continued cheeringl After that |
the declaration: There are !
enough silver Democrats in california to |
take care OF the Democratic party; there |
are enough Popuists in favor of bimetal- |
Ism to keep that party from straylng
awcy, and enough silver Republicans to |
overcome all the gold Republicans that
are left in the Republican party"
The speaker expressed his qualification
that Sacramento County was the greatest
champion of bime Ia lism IN the State, and
that the Democratic gains showed by tina t
county were not exceeded by those OF any
other county in the State.
Mr.. Bryan after this plunged into The
discussion of his "toerably honest
dollar"
Mr. Bryan, accompanied by Assembly
man Shanahan of Shasta and Mr.. Cutler
of Humboldt. left on the northbound
train five minutes after midnight. He
will hold a ten minute reception on the
rear Platform OF the train a o'clock IN
the morning a. Red Bluff, and another
ten minute reception at 6 O'Clock in the
morning at Redding. Then he will go to
bed and take as much rest as he may, If
the politicians will let him, until he ar
rives at Ashland, Or, where he will hold
a meeting.
