Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-01-17

bone out of the Teddy bear" was one
 striking sentence by MT. Gore, the first
 blind senator the United States has
 ever had.
 Tn the Cleveland administration six
 ty-five banks closed, and they called 1t
 terrible panic In this Roosevelt ad-
 ministration all the banks closed, and
 they called it holiday.
 T am going to ask the senate to in-
 vestigate this recent panic of yours and tell the people of the United States
 the names of the financial pirates who
 by destroying confidence shipwrecked the prosperity of the country.
 q actually believe there are some men in New York today who are richer than they were before the panic came. That panic was the result of financial cannibalism. The big ones wanted to devour the little ones, and I believe they've gone and done it.
 No man can be good Democrat without making at least one visit to New York, the one Democratic oasis in the great Republican desert of the east. We are approaching another cam paign and have against us stand pat Republicanism, drunken and debauch- ed with the spells of victory. The Re publicans go into the fight with the depressing battle cry Stand patr We Democrats enter the fray to the cry of Forward, marchr which has been the battle hymn of progress for centuries"
 Some one asked, Why do they call the steel trust the United States Steel corporatlon?"
 Because it steals from every one in the United States" was the ready an swer.
 The ship of state is sadly of It's course, according to Senator Davis of Arkansas. He did not realize how sad ly she had veered until he got to Wash ington. If strong hand does not take the helm soon the grand old craft is doomed to go to pieces. To his idea Mir. Bryan was just the man.
 He may not be elected to the presl- dency." said Senator Davis, "but he certainly has the backing of the AL mighty and will always stand as an example which any true American youth may be proud to follow
 I'm fighting q gang of thieves over here in Wall street." continued Sena- tor Davis. "Yes. indeed, they are thieves. The cotton crop in 1906 for all the world was only 13.OO0.0 GOO bales. On the Wall street market they sold S5. 5.O00.0 .0OO bales. Then you try to tell me that crowd is not a crowd of gam blers. If that boy down here steals a pig he is a thief. If that crowd down there steals the cotton crop of the world they are brokers and finan- cierS.''
 Letters were read from Tom l.. Johnson. who was too busy in Cleve- land with the three cent fare fight to come to New York. and from Augustus who was unable to attend the rally. The resolutions set forth that Bryan's previous defeat was due to an corruption fund contributed by those who enjoy special privileges under the law. The attention of con Eress was called to a national cam paign contribution publicity bill. crosseup AeeUssd In Supreme Court.
