minutes in which to speak," began Mr..
Bryan, "and l wish it was longer. | am
glad to come to Delaware. | am so con-
tident we are right that | believe the
principles for which we are fighting will
soon be as popular in Delaware as they
now are in the West and South. The
Chicago platform will be remembered
VIXEN all other platforms are forgotten,
| believe this, my friends, because that
platform declares for equal privileges for
all and special privileges for none. Few
can tell today what was contained in the
Republican platform, nobody can recite
the Indianapolis platform of the gold
Democrats, but everybody, Republicans,
Democrats and all, can repeat the cardi-
nal principles of the Democratic plat
form adopted at Chicago. 1t was not
written for dav nor for year, and the
youngest child in the country today will
not live long enough to see single prin-
cipe taken out of it.
~ am always glad to talk to farmers.
Tney are as close students as any persons
engaged in business.
Mr.. Bryan said the Republican party
is not taking the part of the farmers.
His text today was that "No farmer can
afford to be a Republican, and no person
living in town, who lives off the farm
er, Can afford to be Republican. The
farmer takes more chances than any
other man. When he plants his crop in
the spring he don't know whether the
winds and the storms will DESTROY them.
He cannot tell whether the bugs will
blight them.
Finally they are raised" continued
Mr.. Bryan, 'and even then the farmer
has to pass through Wall street, between
the Bulls and the Bears, to be bitten by
the Bears and gored by the horns of the
Bulls. Then the Colo Bug meets
him at the end OF the street ready to
/ sting. g.4e4 81 h.

Colonel Bryan didn't think it necessary
to talk to Democrats who withstoed the
Temptations of 1896. In that year he de-

Dwelling on the income tax law and
the decision as to its unconstitutionality
Colonel Bryan said the decision rose M
during the time OF the Spanish war and
now to paralyze the arm of the Govern.
Iment. There is no income tax to raise
money off OF wealth, and now you find
/ a stamp on every old thing paid for by
the people who use the different ole
things. In the hour of peril the Govern
