SYNOPSIS OF BRYAN.s ADDRESS
AT MoRoAN,s GROVE.

OF BRYAN's ADDRESS
AT MoReAN's GROVE.
Mr.. Brysn began his speech by
asking how any farmer could be
II was easy to under
stand how the head of trust or an
army contractor cauld be member
Of that party, but as Cor the farmers
they were not trying to get their
hands into others pockets and
sought only to keep others hands
out their pockets. However prosper
Gus other classes might be the
farmer was not shsrer of that
prosperity.
Here Mr.. Bryan spoke of the cur
rent reports relating to his oats CROP
saving that the exaggerrtion in this
case was a specimen of fallacious re
ports concerning the prosperous
condition of the agricultural classes
in the East.
"They always exaggerate the
possibilities of a good CROP" he
said, "and never take into consid
Grafton the likelihood of bad crop
And after the farmer has taken these
chances passing between the bulls
and bears of Wall Street, the bulls
horn him. the bears bite him, and
when he is though with them he has
to meet the golddug.
TRUST AND THE RAINFALL.
"a good crop is made the occa
sion for prsising the Republican
party, while bad crop is taken as
punishment for voting the Demo
cratic ticket. The claim Is almost
made that the Republican party
controls the rainfall, but this cannot
be true, for if it were there would
be a monopoly on rain; the price
would go up.
"What does the Republican par
ty do to help the farmer? Has it
any means of raising the price OF
what he has to sell? You are told
now that you have more money than
you had in 1896 1 want you to
read the speeches made in 1896 and
see whether the Republicans party
promised any more money. You
cannot find in Republican speech
of '96 a promise of more money
The Republican said then that il
did not matter whether we had
much money or a little, just SO il
was good. They disputed The guam
titive theory of money, and you can
not find where any Republican sale
in 1896 thas we had an insufficient
amount of currency and promised
that the Republican party woulc
being more money. Yet today th.
Republican party hoasts of an in
crease in the volume of money.
Republican farmers, do you be
lieve that times are better than they
were and that we have more none,
than we had, and do you believe tha
there is any connection between bet
ter times and more money? II you
do want you to remember that il
1896 we told You that more money
made better times. and VIC tried tt
secure money, not temporarily, but
permanently, for the American PEG
pie. The Republicans said we die
not need any more, and yet whcr
gold was discovered In Alaska The
Republicans were glad there was
going to be more money. They re
Ijoiced SO loudly that you would i'm
agine that it was in the Republican
platfoSm that they would discover
gold if they were intrusted with
power.

AN EXECUTED CONTRACT OF
CONVEYANCE Is VALID BE-
TWEEN THE PARTIES, AL
THOUGH EXECUTED TO DE-
FRAUD GRANTOR'S CREDITORS.
The court says:
Before the commencement of the trial
in the court below, the defendant made
motion to dismiss the action upon
the ground that the plaintiffs had al
ieseu III their replication that the decd
10 U. w. Little, under whom they
claim. was made to defraud creditors.
me court refused the motion and the
defendant excepted and the defendant
renewed this motion in this court. The
court below properly refused this mo-
tlon. and the motion made here canno :
be allowed. The jury found that the
deed was not made to defraud credi-
tors. But, If they had found other
wise. 1t would not have affected the
plaintiifS right to recover the land
rms deed was an executed contract
and the statute Of frauds, as between
parties and privies. does not apply to
executed. but only to execiitory. con-
tracts. This issue was unnecessary
ana should not have been submitted,
even II we were TO admit that 1t was
raised by the pleadings. which we do
not. Courts OF law will not enforce
fraudulent eXecutory contracts, and
courts Of equity will set aside, fraudu-
lent conveyances in proper cases. But
there is no equitable ground alleged
here for setting aside this conveyance.
and indeed, the defendant alleges that
the plaintiff has the legal title, and
asks that she may be declared trustee
of the land for the defendants benefit
Upon the jury's finding that the deed
was not made as power of attorney.
but deed in fec simple. the defendant
having admitted that the plaintiffs had
the legal title to the land. il neces-
sarily follows that they were entitled
to judgment unless there was error
committed on the trial. Affirmed.

Cavalry, Uni}ed States Volunteers
writing from Santa Cruz, Philippine
Islands. to his brother, George Jones.
in Washington. under date of June
9th. describes Il massacre of Filipinos
in which he took part on June Gath.
and which he relates as quite in the
line of his ordinary duty.
He tells how sixty members of his
regiment are alleged to have been
ordered out TO kill or capture famous
Filipino general known to be living in
the neighborhood.
After some rough scouting the Gene
rails house was located and the Ameri-
cans crawlcd through the underbrush

that they had unwittingly CHANGED

women and children. but there were
about Seventy-fivc mon present who
were armed. The Americans. the writer
alleged. were ordered to fire Il volley
from ambush and then charge, which
they did with terrible results.
THE scene that resulted was horri
ble." writes Private Jones. "On the
ground near the house lay the body OF
the bride. whose brains had been blown
out. The groom. who had received a
bullet in the stomach. was lying near
by in n dying condition. Twelve of the
FiliDinos had been killed and about
the same number wounded. An elderly
woman was shot through the leg and a

the most miserable night 1 ever put in,
but in the morning the fog lifted and We
could see small islands and reefs all
around us.
About IL o'clock a small steamer was
sighted We exchanged signals with her
and found her to be small Japanese gun
boat bound for Taku. We sent a ocat
alongside with a message for the Arneri-
can Admiral at that place. They offered
to assist us in any way they could, but
there was nothing they could do They
proceeded on their way 10 Taku.
Very fortunately wreckng company
was at work on a Japanese steamer ="
miles from US, and as there was no hurry
in what they were doing we were able TO
engage them with their diver, pumps ana
apparatus, SO that on July LIST, at mgh
tide we started ahead under our own
steam. but had not gone five ship lengths
when We struck a fat rock in four faith
oms of water. This put the bow of the
ship up three feet above the water hhe
vet this left US better situated than be-
fcre, as we were clear amfdship and aft,
giving the diver chance to work on the
