MR.. BELMONT LEADS SPEAKING

NAcel 1Or the Success
of the Ticket in I9OO-Judge Tar

Address-Mr. Bryan Also Speaks.
DALLAS, Tex, Oct 3.-The second and
last day of the Democratic carnival. in
conjunction with the Texas state fair.
was the most successful from point of
numbers OF any political gathering in
the history of the state. All last night
and today incoming trains were loaded
with visitors, and when speaking began
at the fair grounds this morning il was
estimated that $4,000 people were present.
There was a surging mass of neonIe
at the grounds when the notables began
to arrive Mr.. Bryan and party of
friends arrived at 1925 a. M, and he was
accorded magnificent ovation.
The meeting was called to order by
Chairman Garden at II As a. m, and Judge
James P. Tarvfn, of Kentucky was intro
dCced as the first speaker. Judge Tar
vim spoke as follows:
The Democracy of this nation now
STANDS upon declaration of principles ap-
piicable TO all classes, all kinds, and all
cond1t ons. 1t is a declaration suited not
only TO the poor. but to the rich as we'll;
North and the South; to the black and TO
the white alike, and to ali men without
distinction Of race color, or religion.
Any law tending to take away from
give IT to another, tends to degrade labor
ana to degrade the man, and to destroy
lndlX1dual enterprise and to destroy a
condltlon OF divine creation. 1t has en-
proved throughout history that the many
nave labored and the few have reaped the
Dement'S; and the history of man in ali
civilized ages and in all civiliZel ccun-
tries furnishes a continuing DrCtesr
against this condition. and the existence
OF this condition mas been the cause Of
every revolution the world has seen and
OF all the wars the world has known and
mas brought about the death of ev ~
government that has passed away The
resistance of this condition brought into
being this American republic; it brought
into being the Democratic party of the
United States; and it caused the formu-
lation of that mighty and imperishable
protest known as the Chicago platform
Of 1896. If mans gifts are such that he
can earn a great deal by his labor, he is
entitled to receive a great deal; if his
gifts are such that he can earn but little.
he is entitled to that little. Any law that
tends to make men rich without labor is
in contravention of natural laws and nat
nral rights. because all moneys placed in
the pockets of men by legislation is nec>
essarily money that is created by the
labor of some other men and properly and
naturally belongs to them.
