WHERE ARE THEY ATs
Republicans Try to Take Both Sides
of All Questions.

Oh All Questions.
LAPORTE, Ind, Sept. 1.-Mr. Bryan's
arrival was announced by the firing Of
anvils and the shouts of men, women and
children at the railroad station. A plat
form had been erected near the depot,
and from this Mr.. Bryan talked for about
ten minutes. He said:
''If a Republican tells you that the
gold standard is good, ask him why his
president sent a commission to Europe
since the last election to get rid of a
gold standard; if any Republican tells
you that the greenback is bad and ought
to be retired, ask him why his party
did not dare to make that assertion in
the last campaign. If a Republican tells
you that permanent debt is a good
thing, you tell him that in all the cam
paigns of the past the Republican party
has been Dragging about how it paid off
the national debt, and yet that today the
Republican party stands Tor currency
system that can only be permanent on
the theory that the national bank debt
shall be permanent for you cannot have
bank notes secured by government bonds
unless there are government bonds to Sc
cure them"
This suggestion called out applause, and
Mr.. Bryan continued:
IF any Republican tells you that the
trust is a good thing, you ask him Why
the Republican platform denounces the
trust, and If the Republican says that
the trust is a bad thing, you ask him
why the Republican administration al
lowed more trusts to be organized dur
ing the last three years than had been
organized in all the history of the coun-
try before that time. 1t does not matter
which side the Republican takes, you can
confront him with questions that
he cannot answer, for if he desires to de-
fend the trusts, you can point to the
Republican platform adopted at Phila-
delphia, which denounced the trusts, and
If he dares to denounce trusts, you can
point to the record of his administration
that has failed to destroy the trusts"
He also pointed out weapons to be used
to meet other Republican arguments.
"If a Republican tells you it is good
thing to have large standing army, you
tell him that until this campaign the
Republicans have always pointed to the
advantage of not having a large standing
army; remind him that when a Republican
president went into Office we had an army
Of 25,OO0 soldiers, and that that same pres
tdent asked for a standing army ST 100000
soldiers in December, 1898, four times the
size of the standing army when he was
inaugurated, and then remind him of the
fact that if we are to have Imperialism
we will never have a smaller army than
we have now. The same spirit that leads
us to take possession of the Philippine
islands and govern them without their
consent and tax them without represen-
i&ation win. lead US to seize any other
lkands weaker than we are"

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept 1.-The ex-
tenstve yardsSef the Santa Fe Railway
company in Argentine are almost. exelu-
sively occupied with cars of wheat which
it is impossible to move. It is estimated
that there were twenty miles of wheat
cars there this morning. The trouble is
said to be due to the Inability of the
Chicago division of the road to handle
the great inflow of. wheat from the vari-
Gus branch lines insKansas. The difficulty
is not SO much from car famine as it
is due to the lack Of motive power to
keep the lines cleared. All other roads
in Kansas are unable to handle the wheat
offered. All the elevators are full, and
farmers are dumping wheat in big piles
