Tor Republicans to adopt new plan of

Ihey have kept UP TO their refusal

the army question. They have adhered
10 their refusal. They started out bv
trying TO avoid the on stion Of iu1T,a-

AT Sidney Mr.. Bryan charged that in
order TO be Republican these days a
man mad 10 change his politics at a
moment notice and very often. This
was necessary, he said, because of the
frequent turns of the Republican party
on public questions

Sne day up 10 the time of the arrival
az that place and after leaving Toledo.
Mr.. Bryan dWelt there upoa the cues
said
Il want you TO remember that when
a mill closed down under d Demo-
cfdtic administration, all the RepubIf-
LsLls pointed 10 it as an evidence that
low tariff was bad, but when a trust
closes down a mill, not a Republican
dares TO say word about the closing
down Of the mill. You viii find that an
over this country today the trusts are
closing down mills and they are throw
ing upon the laboring men the burden
OF maintaining the high prices and as
the trust system develops you viii find
that more and more of the labaring
men VIII be made dependent upon the
"Cru OF few great trust Hagnates."
Germans Give a Horseshoe.
The schedule did not include speech
at Dayton, but a pleasant incident Oc-
CURED there When Mr. Bryan's

O.
make them a speech in German I can
say ICh daLks linen Tell them I am
glad TO see that the Republican appeal
TO the Germans has been in vain, as
the Republican appeal has been in vain
to other portions of our population, for
while the Germans want good money,
they want good government also, but /
Republicans have mistaken the Ger
mans when they think that they are
more anxious about the kind of money
they nave than they are about the kind |
of government under which they live. /
I am obliged to the Germans for this |
horseshoe and am grateful for the |
large majority by which it was voted |
TO me 1 believe that if we succeeded /
IN driving every trust out of the 1
United States. reducing the standing /
army to its former size and in saving 1
this country from the menace of inn
perialism, the blessings of Democratic 1
policies win be SO universally recog- |
nized that the people will never take |
the horseshoe from the White House /

Ohio and Indiana both contributed to /
the dense audience which greeted Mr.. !
Bryan at College Corners which is on /
the interstate line. He was enthusi- /
astiCaily received there and in q speech /
Of twenty minutes duration discussed /
the various issues of the campaign say /
ing among other things.
during the last four years. and you
have been able to read all the Repub- |
IiCan papers have had to say about me.
[ read the other day a new objection to |
me and that was that / was dangerous
because I was honest. You have had
some of the dangers that come from
dishonesty, and don't you think for a
change you had better try dangers that
come from honesty There is one con-
ISOLATION about this charge. I believe I !
have convinced the Republicans that
when I say a thing ] mean it, and 1
want you to believe me that if elected

It impossible for private monopoly to

Mr. Bryan spoke for five minutes at
