legation from the Cook County Demo-
cratic league, members of the national
committee, and all of the local demo.
cratic candidates, including the IAN.
didates for congress-, who escorted
him in automobiles to Pilsen Park,
where he addressed a large throng.
The features of Mr.. Bryan's journey
through his native state of Illinois to-
day vas the accusation, repeatedly
made, that the republican party was
now prepared to purchase the election.
The statement, first made at Alton,
caused q distinct sensation. The
democrats, he said, we're asking only
for a hundred thousand dollars with
which to finish the work of the cam.
gaign, while the republicans were ask
ing for a million.

For eleven years the Republican
party has, been establishing this rec
ord, year after year in admInistra-
ton, Congress after Congress In en-
actment There is no reason to APP.
prehend that there will be either fal-.

have all branches of the Government.
It win not do to give the Republicans
the Senate and the Presidency ana

deprivfng the Republicans of power
