 Kinley Poster as Theme

Anderson, Ind. October 5.-The meeting which closed here at 10 o'clock ton1ght was the last of series of remarkable large po- litical demonstrations made In connection with the appearance of Hon. ". J. Bryan. He made speeches today in succession at Noblesville, Arcadia, Tipton, Elwood, Alex andria, Marion, Hartford City, Muncie, Winchester, Richmond, New Castle and Anderson. A majority of these places are important manufacturing centers, and all the communities traversed are considered Republican in politics. They could not, how ever, have given the Democratic candidate a more cordial reception than they extend- ed. There were immense outpourings at all the towns, and no Interruptions occurred. Mir. Bryan, after the last speech was con- cluded, expressed himself as greatly pleased with the days experiences. At Hartford City MT. Bryan found a text for his re- marks in some Mckinley posters sonspicu- ously displayed on dead wall in the dis tance. Referring to these posters, Mr. Bryan said:
 T see over on the side of that barn a bill or a poster and all that I can make out from here Is that Mckinley was right Now, the question I want to ask is, When was he right?' You know, my friends, a man who is on both sides of a question has a great advantage over the man who is only on one side. The man who gets on both sides must be right some time, but when was MT. Mckinley right-when he denounced Grover Clevelands financial policy, or was he right when he did the same thing that MT Cleveland did? Which time was he right in 1896, when he said in his letter of acceptance that we did not need any more money; or was he right this year in his letter of acceptance, when ne boasted that We had morey, and therefore ought to be glad? Was he right when he
 said in his letter of 1896 that he would keep +g. oil fl1 -i1x md I1d n 1f
 moneys then included in the circulation, or
 was he right when he signed the bill to retire the greenback and substitute a na- tional bank note? Was he right when, in his inaugural address he promised to en- force the law against the trust or was he right when he did not enforce the law against the trust when he had promised to7
 Was he right when he pointed out the evils of the trust in his inaugural message or was he right when he appointed an at torney general from New Jersey, the home of the trust, and allowed him to draw his salary without enforcing laws intrusted ~ his keeping? Was he right when Pe sad In 1897 that forcibe annexati5n "as criminal aggression sS''1FS5atIary to our code Of nor alitsy~To ~Tor was he right when he sent 6o,ooO zsolders 1000 miles away from home to force annexation upon an unwilling peopleT Vas he right when he said last December that 1t was our plain duty to give free trade to Porto Rico, or was he right when he asked the members of Congress to vote against giving free trade to Porto Rico?
 q want you Republicans to take these ar guments made by your President and then see which argument you will accept.
 The efforts to hear MT. Bryan was fit ting climax of the day. MT. Bryan was escorted from the depot by thousands of people and when he reached the fair grounds he found many thousands more waiting him there. The night speech was a general political review.
