You know the difference between them ?
A farmer is one who makes his money
on the farm and spends it in town,
while an agriculturist is a man who
makes his money in town and spends it
on the farm.
This definition of the farmer pleased
the audience and all listened attentive
ly to his speech throughout. Mr.. Bryan
began his speech at Portsmouth at s
o'clock and he had no sooner commence
ed than a bugle call was sounded on a
housetop across the street. There We're
other noisy demonstrations and it look
ed for a time as if there were to be un
friendly Interruptions. Mr., Bryan
caught the situation promptly and he
said; perhaps that is simply touch
of militarism.'

greet him in the town hall. over the

a large picture of Mckinley and Rooese-

After referring to the republicanlsm

CONVENTION OF THE MINERS
NO ACTION YESTERD1Y ON THE
OPERATORS OFFER.
Sessions Devoted to Organization and
speech-making-A Doubtful Outlook
Delegates Seem to be Unanimously
Opposed to Accepting the Ten Per
Cent. Advance Without Further Com
ceSsIOns.

Scranton, Pa, Oct 12.-Eight hun
dred and fifty-seven miners who hold
In their hands the power to end or con-
tinue the anthracite coal miners strike
than three weeks met here to-day for
the purpose of considering the 10 per
cent. net advance in wages offered by
the operators and adjourned until to-
morrow without taking any action on
their employers proposition. Both of
to-day's sessions We're devoted to or
ganizlng the convention and to
speeches by many of the delegates on
the mine-owners' concession.
1t was not expected that anything
would be done to-day outside of an ex-
change of views, The convention went
into executive session, but it was learn
ed that nothing of a definite nature
was suggested which would lead to
solution of what is, to the miners
very knotty problem.
From the trend of the remarks of
the delegates 1t was gathered that the
10 per cent. proposition as it now
stands has very little chance of being
accepted. The delegates seemed. it was
learned, to be almost unanimous that
the operators should first make con-
cessions in the other grievances before
the advance is accepted by the mine
workers. Great stress was laid on the
necessity of abolising the sliding scale
and substituting therefore tonnage
basis on which to fix the rate of wages.
The proposition to have the operators
guarantee a fixed time for paying the
advance was also thoroughly discussed.
Many delegates said they would be sat
isfied with nothing but more liberal
increase in wages.
The mode of procedure is a matter
which is now occupying the attention
of the labor leaders. In case the con-
vention comes to a definite understand
ing on some proposition the question
has been asked how the opera tors will
be advised, in view of the fact that the
latter have repeatedly said they would
not recognize the union. President
Mitchell will not discuss that phase of
the question and none of the other
labor leaders will venture an opinion.
That the present convention will not
come to a definite conclusion is the
of several of the labor leaders that the |
convention is a little unweidly, as at
present constituted.
There was a movement on foot to-
day having for its object the subnis-
sion of the various propositions as they
are suggested by the delegates to a
committee appointed by the convention
for consideration, this committee to
report to either this or a second con-
vention. This movement however, did .
not gain much of start. Some of the |
delegates think that the whole subject |
should be left in the hands of the ma
tional officers This was limited at by
President Mitchell in his brief remarks
just before the convention went into
secret session. Mr.. Mitchell is very
popular among the miners, as was
shown by the enthusiasm displayed as
he delivered his opening address to-day.
The convention adjourned until a. M
tomorrow.

of eligibility had been placed as low as
fifty-one votes, only thirty of the nom
inees had reached that standard. 1t

Gage Says 1t Is the Popultst-Siiver-Dem
cratic Combine.

Bridgeport, Conn, Oct. 12.-Lyman j
Gage. secretary Of the treasury, adj
dressed a large republican meeting In
this city this evening It had been an
nounced that he would make the meet
ing the occasion of a reply to the latest
criticism of President McKinley's adj
minstration by Carl Schurz, but he
confined himself almost wholly to a
discussion of the currency bill passed
last March, and made no reference to
Mr.. Schurz.
L. j. Gage declared that in the letter
of their platform the parties are not
at issue on the questions concerning
the Philippines. Cuba and the trusts.
The greatest trust in the United States,
he said was the pooling of interests by
the Populist, Democratic and Silver
parties, with Bryan as the trustee.
Touching upon the former sound
money democrats who have gone back
to the party upon the plea that even
If elected Bryan could not change the
currency conditions, Mr. Gage said:
ITO elect Bryan would almost neces-
sarily involve the election of a major
I ity of his sympathizers in the house
Later there might by some means be a
ma iority in the senate In sympathy
with him, He Is pledged to repeal the
Dingley tariff act and to open the mints
to silver. IT is my honest opinion that
Bryan, with his perverse ingenuity,
could in a few months debase the money
of the country and destroy its credit,
even with a majority in the senate
against him. ] know Of men who say
they will vote for him and who say
that he could not restore the free coin
age of silver unless elected with a sym
pathetic senate for a second term. They
have confidence in the currency act of
March IA, 1900 to prevent it. That law
In the hands of right minded public
officer is a good and adequate one, but
it is hard to hold by law a man who is
disposed to break the law. | read the
other day of man who in his cell had
nothing but q broom stick and two
blankets. With the broom he made
a key and unlocked the door and of
the blankets he made rope which per-
mitted of his escape over the wall
Since reading that I am more firmly
convinced that it Is better to have the
affairs Of the government administered
by man who loves the law than by
one who would trample it under his
feet.
Concerning the currency act Mr. Gage
denied the democratic assertion that it
was intended to perpetuate the public
debt. when the act took effect" he
said, there was a debt of $S39, ,000, 900
due within eight years. Tt would be
wrong to attempt to meet this by tax
alton at once, which would necessitate
the raising of over s100, 900, 600 a year
Since then $685., ,00O,0 of it has already
been funded, and If the republican
party is given second term $440, 00O,-
900 will be refunded. When this is
reached the operation of the act may
be suspended.
The secretary asserted that the con- |
stitutional questions applying to Porto
Pico, Samoa, Guam, and the Philip |
pines will soon be settled by the SUI |
preme court and that until its dictum
IS announced the party under which |
hey have arisen should be entitled to |
is own Interpretation of the law.

Portsmouth, Ohio, Oct. 12-Mr Bry-
an concluded the first day of his Ohio
campaign in this city tonight. He was
met at the depot by a torchlight pro-
cession and escorted to a square in the
center of the city, where h. spoke from
a platform in the open air. The meet
ing was by far the largest of the day
and was thoroughly enthusiastic. The
meetings of the day We're not so enthu-
siastic or largely attended as those IF
the Indiana and Illinois tours. Threat
ening weather is thought to be partly
responsible for this.
When Mr.. Bryan was introduced at
Springfield, where he had one of the
best crowds of the day, some enthust-
astic admirer in the crowd shouted:
"Hurrah for the farmer president" The
exclamation attracted Mr.. Bryan's at
