Mr.. Bryan arrived In Rochester this
morning fresh from his conference with
David B. Hill at wolfert's Roost. He was
here for one hour, but during that time
did not leave his car.
Concerning his visit with Mr.. Hill he
announced that Mr.. Hill would support
the national and State tickets. Asked
II Mr.. Hill would take the stump the
candidate smiled and suggested that
any such announcement would come
properly from Mr.. Hill himself.
Leaving Rochester the first stop MI.
Bryan made was at Brockport. where
he delivered o five minute speech from
the platform OF his car. He said that
President Roosevelt's insistenoe that
Taft must be elected 10 carry out the
Roosevelt policies was an admission
that these policies had failed.
At Medina, the home Of W. Barry Muir
ply, Lieut.. Gov. Chambers private Sec
rotary, Mr. Bryan addressed o large
audience and undertook to answer three
questions put to him by the Chicago
Tribune. The first Of these was how he
expected to obtain in the Senate labor
legislation which Mr.. Taft had refused
to further. His reply wa that II he 10
elected there will also be q Democratic
House. Legislation such as he proposes
will then be passed by the House and the
Senate will not disregard 1t
The second question asked wa what
would be the result II tho House went Re-
publican. To this he replied that the voters
because the people favor them and the
House would not disregard the wishes
of it's constituents.
The third question as to what he had
to hope from a Republican Senate II
elected. Mr.. Bryan replied that, although
the Senate probably would be Repub-
would come before the Senate and would
at least provide an Issue for two years
hence.
BUFFALO, Sept. a1.-Mr. Bryan came to
town after q hard day Of campaigning
maxine brief speeches at B~rookport,
Holley, Albion. Medina. Middleport, Lock-
pension Bridge. he was well tuck cred
out, 90 much 80 that at Tonawanda he
declared that he felt himself pushed
beyond his strength.
He entered town late in the evening
and after a few moments at q hotel vas
whisked away to Humboldt Park, In the
eastern outskirts OF The city. where he
he was whirled back to Convention Hall.
on the west side OF town, where he ad-
dressed a crowd that packed the place
to the doors. Outside were four times as
many as inside, so an overflow meeting
was held.
Tonight in his speeches in Buffalo
attacking the President. he insisted that
the Democrats Of the House had been
more loyal to reform than the Republi-
cans. He addressed most OF his argument
70 the President. ihtimatlng that MI.
Taft was entirely a personal candidate.
In part, he said:
What can be promised In reform from
a Republican administration Mr., Roose-
welt has not yet imprisoned a trust magnate.
VIII Mr.. Taft b, more successful? The
trusts are now increasing rapidly. VIII
they decrease under Mr.. Taftf The Demo-
Gratis OF the House tried In vain in help the
GTeslQent get an hntI-tEust Jaw tHiOuBu
the Republican Senate.
The President has no plan for eliminate
ing the principle Of private monopoly.
The Democratic party has. The trusts are
supporting the Republican ticket to-day.
Why are they doing SO II Republican sue
cess Is more dangerous to them han Demo-
cratic suocess7 What has he done to dis
turb the steel trust? Can he promise that
Mr.. Taft will do anythinsf
What has he lone to punish the Stand
ard OIL Company? The fine levied against
the Standard OIL Company has been re-
versed and no effort has been made to re-
move the tariff which was imposed for the
benefit Of the Standard Oil Company.
The Democratic party has a plan. Under
this plan no corporation will be permitted
TO control moro than 50 per cent. Of the total
product n every corporation controlling
more than rs per cent. will be brought under
the supervision Of the Federal Government
and compelled to conform to restrictions
which will protect the public.
Take the Standard OIL Company. for In.
stance. 1t 10 zone of the most ancient Of
the offenders against law and m erals, The
Republican party has no remedy which
would protect the people from the Standard
OIL Company. The Democratic pledge
would prohibit that corporation. as It would
other corporations. from controlling more
than 50 per cent. Of the product, and It would
prevent Its driving out a. competitor by
underselllng the competitor In the COM
petitor's territory while II sustained the
price elsewhere.
The same principle applied to other great
corporations would eliminate the principle
Of private monopoly n restore compe-
tltion. By setting a limit to the greed OF
these corporations that aspire to mo-
nopoly the DEMOCRATIC party would protect
the small competitor and the public,
Mr.. Bryan left Buffalo at midnight for
Detroit, where he Is due In the morning.
He will speak In Ann Arbor In the morp-
