boring man accuses the Republican party
OF an attempt to destroy the Declaration OF
Independence. the only answer is that you
have got a full dinner pail, and while you
have got plenty Feat you should be salts
fed want you TO remember in the first
place that you cannot satisfy man by
giving him plenty TO eat. and in the secord
place / want you 10 take the cost of what
you have to buy as a laborine man and
measure IL against your wages and see II
the trusts have not raised the price of what
you buy more than they have your wages.
The Republican party has no plan Tor the
betterment OF the permanent condition or
those who toll. but II has permitted the
great branches of industry to be monopo-
lized by few
AT Paramount Mr. Bryan closed as fol-
lows: THE Republican policy means that
We shall have a form Of republic here and
practice OF eepotism In the Orient The
Republicans said In 1896 that We could nos
have a double standard OF money; now they
have a double standard of government
They said in 1896 we advocated 5o-cent
dollar. yet they have Scent citizen II
Porto Rico. and we don't know what per
cent OF citizenship the Filipino is to have
In 1896 the Republicans said every dollar
must be as good as every other dollar and We
tsay that every citizen shall be as good as
every other citizen. and that the same Con-
stitution shall protect them z u.
AT Grafton MIR. Bryan said that he was
looking TO West Virginia 10 do better for
the Democracy this year than IL did In
the number of votes he received at that
time. The trouble then was the Repub-
lcans had more votes than he had counted
on. He laughed: 1.-THE Republican party
Is drifting away from the peoples interest
You are at liberty 10 decide whether the
conditions are such as you like. and II not,
what reforms improve them. 1 be-
ieve the Republican party Is more clearly
than ever placing the dollar above the
man. that instead of regarding the man
as a man and deserving of what considera-
ton the government gives. the Republican
party is giving aid and encouragement to
organized wealth, measuring them not by
their national rights. but their financial
standing.
AT A SUMMER RESORT.
At Deer Park Mr.. Bryan left the train
for visit TO Mr.. McGraws country home.
This was his only departure from the new
rule laid down for him by Chairman Jones,
that he shall not go away from the car 10
make incidental speeches. This exception
was. however. pleasant diversion and par
took more of the nature of social call
than OF political experience. Here Mr..
Bryan was introduced to Mr.. McGraw's
family and neghbors and after making a
brief speech was invited to partake of a
sumptuous luncheon. Mr.. Bryan in
troduced I'm very laudatory language by
Colonel Baughman- The beautiful sur
roundings OF Colonel McGraw's home
seemed to afford inspiration for Mr.. Bry-
ans remarks, which were few. He said:
Il never visit summer resort and see
the refreshing shade and beautiful homes
without thinking how few, comparatively,
of the people of this country are able to
enjoy summer home. II is the thought
that is always uppermost In my mind when
i visit the seashore, or the lakeside, or
when ] think of this ] wonder whether
IL Is due TO natural or 10 human laws that
SO many people are compelled to toll the
year round and have so little opportunity
for rest and recreation. 1 believe IL is
partly due 10 human laws and not entirely
to the laws of God. believe that our gov
eminent is not administered as nearly as
II should be for the protection OF the
rights of all and for the advancement
OF the interests of all. And when
We protest against legislation which
has for its result the spreading of the
arms OF society further and further apart,
We are usually denounced as disturbers
OF the peace and stirrers-up of discomfort
and sometimes characterized as Anar-
chists. but those who bring this accusa-
ton against us err either ignoranty or
willfully. There Is nothing in the prn-
ciples Of the party to which L belong that
would lead man to do aught to injure
the property of any man or to put an OBJ
stacle in the way of the honest accumula-
ton OF wealth. All that We seek is TO en-
able the man who accumulates
tect him from the man who
wishes to enjoy IL, but does not earn il.
Would IL make the rest of those who can,
rest less sweet TO know that more were
able 20 rest? believe II would increase the
enjoyment of these who now enjoy to know
that their enjoyment was not shared by so
Few, and that every year increase the num-
Der OF those who might partake in the sum-
mer time Of the recreation and recuperation
necessary for the active performance of the
duties of life.
The stop at Deer Park consumed about
n m hnf and halt md f,ea fnrrr m
Cumberland was not resumed until about
$50 clock.
Continuing. Mr.. Wellington referred to Ad-
miral Dewey's ''bloodless victory. EN-
broilment with the natives followed" he
said. and went on, they were jealous of
foreign power. They hoped FOR treatment
as allies, they longed for freedom, they de-
Inanded the right TO establish their own
government. III was denied. The policy OF
equivocation upon the part of our aCminis-
tration began and an outpost skirmish,
for which no responsible party has yet been
found. was made the pretext of fierce. cruel
and relentless war. 1t has lasted two cam
paigns. 1t has cost US many precious lives
and nearly five hundred millions of money
of the gold standard by this time. Yet what
have we accomplished? At the end of the
first campaign the Filipinos within five
miles of Manila. Since that time are
RECALLED frequently by reports that the war
Is almost over But the other day an
American garrison surrendered 10 the
Filipinos ard A doubt whether our lines
have been much advanced beyond the five
miles for year.
Reference TO Admiral Schley caused loud
applause, though not much attention
was given TO the assertion that 1.-THE gen.
tie Roosevelt was saved from utter an
initiation by a colored regiment which
swept over and beyond him.
HIS VOTE FOR THE TREATY.
referring to his position upon the Paris
treaty. he said he had voted for it because
he wanted to bring the war TO a technical
as well 10 real close. He had, how
