BRYAN BEGINS TOUR OF OHIO
AgitntOr Concludes Journey Through
Kentucky and with Mclean
Takes Up New Task.

GREENVILLE, o., Oct. 19.-W. ]. Bryan,
Mrs. Bryan and the newspaper men who ac-
companied the party through Kentucky
crossed the river from Covington last night,
boarded the special train provided for the
three days tour of Ohio and ran to Dayton
during the night, where the private car of
John r. Mclean was attached. Today at
Greenvlle, Darke county, Mr.. Bryan deliv-
cred his first address in Ohio. There was
an immense crowd present.
The visiting party was escorted to the
court house square. John r. Mclean, the
democratic candidate for governor, intro
duced Mr.. Bryan, who said:
III there was one reason for you voting
the democratic ticket in 1896 there are six
teen reasons why you should do so this fall
There was nothing complained of in 1896
that cannot be complained OF now. The
same vicious principles advocated by the op-
position in 1896 are advocated today in this
campaign. The Chicago platform 10 which
you gave such loyal support in 1896 is still
the platform OF the democratic party and
the platform of the Ohio democracy again
endorses that platform. believe the planks
OF that platform are stronger today than
when they were written"
Mr.. Bryan then entered into an elaborat te
defence Of the income tax and predicted a
popular endorsement OF the proposition. He
cited the efforts OF the government to raise
a revenue to conduct the Spanish war be-
cause Of the decision of the supreme court
| against the income tax law.

M'KlNLEY HOME FROM WEST
Executive Party Reaches Washing
ton After some Dclny-Mrs
Mckinlcy's Health Improved.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-President Nc
Kinley and party reached Washington at
1925, nearly an hour behind schedule, owing
to delay on the grade in the Baltimore tun-
mel. The party consisted Of President and
Mrs. Mckinley, Secretary Long, Secretary
and Mrs. Hitchcock and Attorney General
Griggs, Assistant Secretary Cortelyou and
Mr.. Finney, private secretary to the secre-
tary OF the navy, members of the press and
the White House attendants. All but the
three cabinet officers mentioned had left the
party at various points on the road. The
train was met at the station by Secretary
Root, Adjutant General Corbin, District Mar
shal Palmer and John Addison Porter, secre-
tary to the president.
Some anxiety was caused at first by the
announcement that the train was delayed
three-quarters OF an hour near Baltimore.
but 1t was afterward learned that the only
trouble lay in the combination of a sharp
curve, heavy grade and wet rails in the tun
mel, which necessitated backing out TO get
another engine
The train was stopped, as usual, on the
Sixth street siding outside the Pennsylvania
station. The presidents carriage drove to
the door of the car and the president and
Mrs. Mckinley stepped directly into the car
riage and were driven at once to the White
House. Mrs. Mckinley was looking stronger
than on her return from her last trip west,
and 1t was agreed by the members of the
party that she had improved in health on
the journey.
Leaving Washington October 4, the train
Travelled distance of 5000 miles and passed
over the tracks of eighteen railway systems.
Arrangements for the trip were made by
the Pennsylvania Railroad company, which
furnished the entire equipment. The
itinerary having been arranged by the White
House officials, George W. Boyd, assistant
general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania
system, put himself in communication with
| the general passenger agents of the various
| railways over which it was the wish Of the
party to pass and schedule was quickly
made up d. N. Bell, tourist agent OF the
Pennsylvania system, was placed in charge
of the train with corps of men from his
| own road.
| In order that the immense amount OF tel
egraphic correspondence originating on the
train might be expeditiously handled, the
Western Union Telegraph company sent with
| the president as its representative William
H. Young, night manager of the offices at
Washington. He had directly in charge all
Of the official telegraphic correspondence of

OF capital for one purpose or another Is not

ought to own and control our own merchan'

doing more exporting than importing Inc
