of monumental City. 1t also con

BRYAN'S LECTURE
A Logical Discourse Upon The
Theory Of Government.

The opera house was crowded
with people Saturday night, anx-
ious to hear Col. William Jen-
nings Bryan in his lecture, "a
Conquering Nation" There were
rounds of applause when the spea-
ker aud Ollie James appeared up
on the stage. In few we'll cho-
sen words Mr.. James appropriate
ly introduced Col. Bryan as one Of
the best known and best loved oil
American citizens. Mr.. Bryan

the nation must be the sane al

the various questions now of ma.

money question, expansion or i'm.

He would have the nation so just
so fair in its dealing with the PEG,
lple of earth that it would conquer
the world, not by force of arms
but by love. He said if this ma
ton IS to endure, it must go forth
with the gospel of peace and love
and not with the idea of conquest

in Philadelphia and built house on his
farm in this neighborhood, where he has
lived until this fall when the improve

up his work. He has spent the past

The TiIden Club.

Two thousand Democrats gathered
at the meeting of the Tilden Club in
New York on the 18th instant. The
principal speakers Of the occasion
were ex-President Cleveland, ex Sen
ator David b. Hill, and Governor A..
J. Montague. Nirginia's Governor
spoke for the Southern Democracy,
and said in part;
"The name of Tilden is a good
one to begin with to settle differences
in the Democratic party. Virginia
reveres that name. \ wise aud saga
cious craftsmanship, his undoubted
courage, his great knowledge, has
endeared him to all of us. We need
not hunt for issues in this campaign.
If the party cannot appeal to the
people for an old fashioned revival of
party prosperity now, when can we
] am not here to promulgate a party
code or platform. But consider. Is
it not time to think of another form
of administration to the Govern
ment? Neither will l try to outline
foreign policy, except one of pat
riotism and common sense. ! make
no TRADE against the army. 1t is an
arm of the Government. Yet the
people reserve the right to criticise
their officials. There have been such
thing as water cures that have
shocked the people.
Publicity is the most potential
factor in all government.
"The alliance of trusts and taxa
ton has grown to be well.nigh in
separable aud the time has come tc
break it. Virginia is still where it
always stood-loyal to Democracy
Give us righteous cause and d
righteous man, and Virginia will
give you every electoral vote we have
"Let us make the next contest one
for the restoration of Democratic
principles.

Cleveland and BRYAN.

The city press is making a great
I" to do" over the reconciliation of
Cleveland and Hill. The New York
World says: If they can get together,
there would seem to be no good reason
why any real Democrats should stay
apart" We quote this sentence,
because it embodies the spirit of the
Northern press.
Now, whilst we want harmony all
along the line, we do not think the
reconciliation of Cleveland and Hill
anything but a personal matter.
Their differences have always been a
matter of personal politics aud ambi-
tions. 1t was easy for them to get
together Their views on economic
questions have always been nearly
identical. We therefore do not see
where much solace is to come to the
Democratic party out of this love
feast.
What IRE rOUld like 10 see, would
be handshaking between Cleveland
and Bryan. This would mean some
thing. This event would heal all
differences. This would briug that
harmony now so essential to success.
This is the contamination devoutly
to be wished, and when it takes place,
the bills will be joyful together, and
the old mountains will skip like
young rams.
