BRYAN AT CINCINNATI.

Hon. William J. Bryan, with his wife
and little daughter Grace, on their way
to Washington on Monday, reached the
Cincinnati depot about B p. m. Al
though invited to stay over, he could
not do SO. While standing in the depot
few minutes he was surrounded and
saluted cordially by 40 or so people, and,
of course, he had good word for every
one. We extract from the Enquirer:
"Have you seen anything of the gen.
eral2" remarked Mr.. Bryan to the
Enquirer man, during lull in the ova-
ton.
"What general do you refer tor" was
asked.
"Why, General Prosperity" replied
the distinguished young man, with a
chuckle. ''During my tour through
Ohio tonight" continued Mr.. Bryan,
81 will look out at the different stations
to see if can discover any of the great
increased vote that the Republicans got
in Ohio this year"
"You are going to Washington, Mr..
BryanW
"Yes, but not to be inaugurated. If
the logic of some Republicans were true
that would be my mission there now.
Before the election received messages
from many Republicans, saying that if
we're elected President, there would be
bank failures and business crashes all
over the country. If that logic were
true, ought to be President, because
the failures spoken of have certainly
taken place."
Mr.. BRYAN left on the 6:35 train for
Washington. At the train was Hon
Thomas F. Shay, who wanted Mr.. Bryan
to deliver an address for an organization
which he represented, but the Demo
cratic leader would make no promises as
to what he would do and gave no def
mite answer. During the few minutes
that he remained at the station Mr..
Bryan expressed great interest in the
Ohio campaign this fall, and there is ev'
cry indication that when the contest
begins he will be found in the thickest
of the fight. He looked about the same
as he did when here before. He wore
the same slouch hat, the same dark
diagonal suit, and was just as approach
able as he was when the Democratic
candidate for President. Mr.. Bryan ex
presses his utter contempt for Lyman j
Gage as the secretary of the treasury
He regards him as the representative O
the moneyed interests and no friend o
the people. Before he got on the trair
he said; "The cause of bimetallism il
growing. 1t is bound to win, because
no question has ever been settled tina
was not settled right" While he wa
out on the platform his wife and littl'
daughter we're in the Washington sleeper
1t is thought that some time durinl
pril he will come to Cincinnati and de
liver lecture on bimetallism.

So vehement an enemy Of the Demo.
cratic party as Senator Chandler, of
New Hampshire, said in his late silver
speech in the Senate that "the deprecia-
ton of property in the United States
Since 1890 has been 35 per cent" and
this fall of values in other countries 'has
been due to the progressive steps in the
demonetization of silver" Such "con-
tinuous shrinkage of property and such
an increasing burden of debt cannot be
long endured without widespread bank
ruptcy." Further says Senator Chand-
Ter: "It it had not been for the fortu.
nate balance of trade in favor of the
United States in 1896, there would have
been cataclysm in this country which
would have prostrated all interests. "
The path of safety alone, he says, lies

WHEN THE HEART BIDS REASON
BE GENTLE AND JUST,
From the Canton Repository. }

The veteran Archibald McGregor,
Democratic war horse of scores of politi-
cal battles, was thirty years ago TIE
editor of the Canton Democrat, which
paper he now edits as the organ of the
Democratic party.
For quarter Of a century Mr.. Nc.
Gregor has led in political antagonism
to Major Mckinley at his own home.
He has fought with all the energy and
pertinacity of his intense nature.
But he simply and eloquently voiced
the universal sentiment of the President
elects friends and neighbors-confned
to his home as he has been, by the re
suits of a fall on an icy pavement
when he wrote:
"HoN. WILLIAM MCKINLEY. My Dear
Major: Uuable to call in person, allow
me to express in this way, my high
personal regard for yourself and wife,
and to extend my best wishes for your
success as President, and also for happi-
ness and long life to you and Mrs. Nc.

before you depar. for Washington.
Every respectfully yours, ETC.,
"a. MCGREGoR."
Canton, O. Feb. 27, 1885,.
The prayers of not only the fellow
citizen of his own home town, but of the
people of the mightiest nation on earth
are with William Mckinley.
His patriotic purposes, his pure pri-
vate life, his warm sympathies, his most
faithful and distinguished public serv,
ices all command for him the highest
respect, the greatest admiration and the
sincerest confidence of the people of all
parties.
More exalted public honor than sew,
enty millions of people have given him
the world does not know.
But after all, what more priceless
heritage could there be than such per
sonal tribute from the unrelenun
political antagonist of life time? added
as it is, to the joyful acclaim of thost
neighbors and friends, old and young
whose lives most cherished politica
spectacle is about to be witnessed.
Such sentiments of honestly dilierin!
partisans at home are shared by count
less millions everywhere, because tn,
highest aspirations Of American citizen
ship are personifed in William McKin
ley.
When the din of the ella, b and clatte
of political battle is over, none know
him but to love him, and the ennoblinl
influences which his life and his admin
istration of public duties must ever i'm
press upon the history of this gloriou
nation of freemen.
