In his brief speech at BroWnstown Mr..
Bryan referred to the campaign of 1896,
and said that he had not been dismayed
at the result of the election Of that year
because he believed that the Democrats
were working upon right principles, and
the Republicans on wrong principles, and
that If this was the case the problem
would work out right. "If man has
boils,'' he said, ''he IS apt to continue
to have them until he takes something
to purify his blood. The Republican
party has been working on the vicious
principle that the dollar is worth more
than the man. and l think the time has
come when the country will devide to
purify the system"

At Montgomery. Nh Bryan declared
that "the boasted prosperity of the Re-
publican party was confined to a small
section of the country. If he said,
''they say we are prosperous, they cannot

them to do justice by the Filipinos as

Although several of the bosses of the
shops in which the dressmakers are on
strike have been giving out statements
for publication to the effect that they
have secured all the girls needed to fill
the places of the strikers they have be-
gun to sue for peace
At last nights meeting of the strikers,
in Richmond hall, a committee of two
men sought and secured opportunity to
address the meeting. AS soon as thew
made it known that they had authority
to represent the employers in confer
ence with the strikers, in hope of bring
Sng about settlement, the girls gave
them to understand that they preferred
ito treat with the employers direct. Both
sides being women, they thought it would
be more satisfactory. The gentlemen
then withdrew without Offering any terms
of compromise.
This morning the picket committee
will take their posts the same as usual
and continue to prevent new employees
from being secured. So far have their
efforts been successful in this direction
that it may be stated as positive fact
that in shops where twenty-five to fifty
girls had been employed before the strike
from live to ten is the largest number In
any one of them now, and some of the
shops have scarcely one.
Three men employed in Miss Morriseys
shop as ladies' taiIors were induced to
join tee ranks of the strikers yesterday
This, coupled with the fact that two or
three more of the employers signed the
agreement furnished the strikers with
sometning to inspire their enthusiasm.
MANY Of the mems unions having tender
ed financial assistance whenever it was
desired, a committee last night visited
several of the unions and gave notice
that continuation of the fight would ne
cessitate some outlay to aid those of the
strikers who are not in a position to
maintain themselves longer. The com
mittee was enthusiastically received, and
every union visited voted a donation
with an invitat on to call again when mo q
was needed. The UNION will now begin
paying strike benefits But only those in
- real need are likely to accept anything
for the present
The fact that the employers have shown
Willingness to confer indicates that both
sides will get together within a day or
SO at farthest and come to an agreement.

SALTWATER NEWS.

Supt. Harrison, of the Saltwater Wa
ter company, and members of the city
council met in the office of City Attor-
ney Nethaway yesterday morning to If
possible arrive at a satisfactory water
rental. The city maintains that the
hydrant rental is altogether too high,
and at yesterdays meeting proposition
was submitted to Supt. Harrison by
members Of the council which, if accept
ed by the water company, will save the
city from $1,000 to $4,000 per annum Mr..
Harrison stated that he could not accept
the proposition without bringing it before
the board of directors of the company,
and this will be done at once. Members
of the city council are strongly of the
opinion that the question will be AMIGA
bly, adjusted, both sides being willing to
grant what they term reasonable con-
ceSSiOnS.
Charles E. Mosier, who was nominated

ing of Alex Richard, chairman, G. s.

committee on credentials was appointed,
consisting of P. j. Arndt, J. F. Burke
and ]. F. Sullivan. After the committee
had made its report, ]. F. Burke arose
and paid Mayor Armson a high compli-
ment for the manner in which he had
conducted the Office during his term of
office and favored rendering him the
nomination for a second term One of
the delegates then stated that several
members of the Republican committee
favored tndorsing Mr.. Armson, provided
the Democratic convention would indorse
e. G. Foster, the Republican nominee for
city treasurer, and after considerable dis
cussion it was decided to defer the nom
ination of candidates for mayor and city
treasurer until tomorrow. Messrs, J.
Sullivan, M. w. Murray, Austin jerks,

ton tomorrow The idea is to prevent

secure as good a man as possible to pre-
side over the affairs of the city 1t is
understood that Mr.. Armson will accept
the Democratic nomination, provided he
is Endorsed by the Republican party,
but will not make fight for the office.
