Republican Speaking.

The Republicans began the last week
of the,campaign by rally in the Rink
last Monday night. The meeting
was very largely attended and enthusiast
tic. The speakers were Col. w. c. Brown,
who served on Mckinleys staff when the
latter was governor of Ohio. and Judge
Albert II. Steele, of New York City.
After music by Comrey's Concert Band
which escorted the speakers and Teddy S
Rough Walkers to the hal, County Chair
man c. II. Wofes introduced Col. Brown
as the first speaker of the evening. Col.
Brown spoke for thirty-hve minutes and
talked of nothing but the money question
which he declared the paramount issue
He said the free coinage of silver at the
ratio OF 10 TO l was plank in the Demo-
cratic platform and should Bryan be
elected he would have Demo-
cratic Congress at his back and soon after
his election the monetary system of the
country would be placed on silver basis.
He compared the American silver dollar
with the Mexican dollar and the money of
other countries and spoke of the depres-
sion the adoption OF silver money basis
would bring TO the country
Col. Brown was followed by Hon. A II.
Steele. of New York in an address which
lasted for an hour and twenty minutes.
The audience thought it was much shore
er, however. for it was very entertaining
Judge Steele is an able and eloquent
speaker and'he held the rapt attention of
his large audience throughout his entire
address. He took particular delight in
euloging the Republican party and IN re-
viewing the political history of the past
hundred years. The parl of his speech
that attracted the rhost interest was his
upholdin of the large corporations. AS
an example he took the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad and said that the road was COM
posed of about one hundred smaller roads,
which has been bought by the company.
Is 1t not more convenient. he said, TO
travel over the roads that have been CUB
bled up by one company, than to be
changing every few hours3
Judge Steele concluded his address by
reviewing the Spanish American war, its
course and the work accomplished by the
Mex inley administration.

Government by Injunction.

AT meeting of the Democratic Sound
Money League. held at Music Hall, Balti-
more, last Thursday evening, President
John X. Cowen Of the b. & O. presided
In opening the meeting Mr. Cowen said
that government by injunction became
operative because of the recommendation
by Grover Cleveland, by and with the ad
vice OF Richard Olney, when Debs en-
deavored to interfere with the mails of the
government. Ii was passed by the SEN
ate, every Democrat voting for the reso-
luton. which was offered by Senator
Daniel, of Virginia. In the House the
resolution was introduced by a member
from Kentucky. all Democrats voting
for it. He then touched on BRYAN sta e.
ment that all the money was leaving this
country and was being loaned abroad
and referred to Bryan as that syolus
from Nebraska, that shallow demagoeue
who breaches brainless philosophy" He
claimed that this money came from the
institutions which held the savings of the
people and which sought investment. and
because the farmers were so prosperous
that they did not need any assistance it
was necessary to seek other fields.
Mr.. Cowen then made the definite
statement that the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company had, upon his recon-
mendation, authorized the purchase of
5000 cars, equivalent to - 900 cars of
the old thirty-ton draf'. Addressing him
self 10 the workmen of Steelton, he dwelt
upon the bigness of the order, and then
wound up by saying: Nov what have
done as a prudent authority and as a
prudent business man3 So many cars
will be taken as you can build and get
ready for until the election. If the kind
providence should not guide us against
the disaster of Bryan's election will car
eel the order,
Mr.. Cowen. continuing, said his reason
for so doing would be that the company
would be unable to obtain all the money
with which to dc the work and they would
be unable to realize upon securities.
