AMID SCENES OF
HIS CHILDHOOD
Bryan Speaks at Salem. His
Emotions Stirred.
TO HIM A SACRED SPOT
Friends of His Boyhocd Show Him
Marked Attention.
HE SPEAKS OF BRIBERY BY REPUBLICANS
Their Managers Are Collecting From The Great
MOlopoIies Huge Campaign Fund
in the Attempt to Override
the Peoples will.
(By the Associated Press J

Salem, Ills, Oct. S.-William ]. Bryan
began his weeks work with a speech
early today in this city, his former home.
Friends, many of whom had known Mr..
Bryan from boyhood. gave him marked
reception. Since yesterday visitors had
been coming in from surrounding towns.
Mr.. Bryan began his speech at z o'clock
and talked nearly an hour. He spoke near
the court house in which his father held
court from 1860 to 1872. and in which the
candidate made his first political speech
twenty years ago. He referred to his
boyhood days and friends with much feel
ing. Mr.. Bryan said in part:
''If 1 wanted to declare myself a great
man this is the last place l would come
to make declaration because you have
l.nown me from my boyhood, but if any
one wants to declare that I am n bad
man, l want him to make the declaration
here rather than any place else.
Il hardly feel like making a political
speech here. for this is a sacred spot to
me. Here my parents are buried, and
here l learned the precepts which I have
tried to follow. l know the people here
and know how conscientious they are.
When l see the picture of my opponent
in the windows of the Republicans l know
how conscientious they must be, and how
certain that my election would be injuri-
Gus to the country or they would not ex-
hibit the pictures upon my return to my
birthplace. 1t is to these Republicans
that l desire to appeal. When l return
to Salem find vacant chairs. / find that
since my last visit Republicans and Dem
ocrats have passed away, find they have
been crossing over into the land where
differences in politics do not divide them.
wonder if it is not possible for us to so
understand the issues that there will be
less division here"
Mr.. Bryan told of the success of the
meetings at the other places visited by
him. and the enthusiast with which he
was received
IF the election were held today" he
said, there is no doubt we would have
majority in the electoral college and
on the popular vote. But the Republican
managers are now collecting from the
monopolies a large campaign fund. They
will buy every vote that can be bought.
They will coerce every voter that can be
coerced. They will intimidate every la
boring man who can be intimidated; they
will bribe every election judge that can
be bribed. They will corrupt every court
that can be corrupted 1 do not under
stand how it is possible for the plain,
everyday Republican to close his eyes to
what is going on when he knows that if
he aids these influences to carry the cleo
tion at this time, the same means can be
employed to carry other elections when
those who are supporting the Republican
ticket today will be opposing the Repub-
lican ticket"

dollars, the amount originally required by
the commissioner .and the trial of the
cases was set for Monday of the second
week of the April term of Federal court
here.
Great interest has been manifested here
in the case. and when it was called to-
day the court room was filled with people
The grand jury that found indictment
against these registrars is composed of
twelve Republicans and nine Democrats.
After hearing the evidence this jury
found mot a true BILL" AS soon as the
District Attorney heard of this he went
before them. summoned more witnesses
and cross examined them himself. and
this accounts for the large number of
new names that appear in the bill If re-
ports that have come directly from the
grand jury room be true, it was only
after the strongest sort of pressure had
been brought to bear by the District At
torney that he secured true bill.
