AT LEAST 5000 IN
GREAT AUDITORIUM
He Calls Upon the Republican Party
Again to Publish List Of It's Cam
paisn Contributions Before the No
vember Election.



Des Moines, Iowa, August 21.--Wil-
liam Jennings Bryan addressed an au-
dience conservatively estimated at g.
900 people in the auditorium of the
Iowa State Fair here today and was
to the echo by the thousands
of Democrats present.
The Democratic nominee confined
to the tariff issue almost en-
tirely and severely arraigned
the Republican party for fostering the
trusts by eliminating competition and
them to charge exhorbitant
prices for the necessaries of life.
Mr.. Bryan laid especial stress on the
increased cost of living. showing that
the expenses of the workingman's fam
lily had increased even more rapidly
than his wages.
Discussing the failure of the Repub-
lican administration TO effect a revis-
ion of the tariff, Mr.. Bryan said:
With a President who, toward the
close of his term, admitted the neces-
sity for tariff revision, with two
thirds majority in the senate and near
ly sixty majority in the house, the Re-
publican party has refused to permit
any revision whatever Mr.. Williams,
the leader of the minority in the
house, introduced bill providing for
a reduction of the tariff to 100 per
cent, wherever it is now more than
100 per cent. 1t would look like the
party might havetaken this
step toward tariff revision, had 1t been
deeply in earnest; but no. the bill was
not even reported from the committee.
Whenever attention was called to an
lndefensible schedule, the answer was
that they could not afford to open the
subject for debate just before cam
paign, but there is no force in this OBJ
lection because the house rules are so
framed that the majority can cut on
debate, prevent amendment and ST.
Ience opposition.
The Republican party claims
credit for the fine against the Stand
ard Oil Company in the case which
was lately reversed. but no effort has
been made to relieve the people from
the fine which is imposed upon them
every day by the Standard Oil Com
pany through the operation OF the
tariff law which gives that company
more than 100 per cent. protection
against its chief rival, Russia. What
'aith can a real tariff refcrmer, wheth-
sr he be Republican or a Democrat,
epose in the Republican leaders. when
hey deliberately put off all reduction
until after election, and then call for
with the understanding
hat the public shall not know the
names of the contributors until after
The polls are closed?
The Republican platform says that
he tariff is intended for the American
manufacturers. farmers and produc-
srs, and especially for the wage earn
srs. II the farmer and the wage earn
sr are really the chief beneficiaries OF
he protective system, will the Repub-
lean candidate explain why the farmer
and the wage Garner have contributed
80 little to the Republican campai6

Only recently a damage case grow
