: Billy Bryan Eloquence Sweeps
Like a Hurricane Over the Panture
Fields The Manner in Which Sil
ver May Be Railed to 91.29.
Barrytown, N. T., Aug. 23. William
J. Bryan yesterday at M,aclalln, a town
In Dutchess county, delivered the first
actual campaign speech since his nom
ination. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan and their
hosts, Mr. and Mrs. Perrlne, drove over
to Madalln at 3 o'clock from Upper Ked
Hook. A number of houses along the
five miles of road were decorated with
flags, and the town of Madalin and the
adjacent village, Tivoll, were also made
attractive by a display of bunting. At
the outskirts of Madalln a reception
committee and a brass band greeted the
candidate, and with the band in front
a procession was formed for the entry
Into the town. Fifteen hundred persons
were situated In a large pasture usod
In all campaigns for political meetings.
Mr. Bryan wore again the old black
alpaca coat In which he was attired
when he made, the famous Chicago
speech. His voice, after his long rest,
was clear and strong. In the course of
his address Mr. Bryan spoke as follows:
I am going to call your attention to
a few things for you to consider when
you are trying to make up your mind
what you ought to do. You take the
gold-standard Democrats. Some of
them pay they ought to como out open
ly and Indorse the Republican cundl
dato so as to be sure to elect him, and
others say "No, that would be danger
ous, because unless we havo a candi
date of our own, why, there would be a
great many Democrats who would be
foolish enough to vote the Democratic
ticket of the common people." (Laugh
ter). And there they are divided. They
all want the same object they all want
to elect a Republican candidate be
cause that Democracy Is better exem
plified through Republicanism. (Laugh
ter). But, as I say,' they are divided
as to the means of getting at it, and
think that they can elect a Republican
candidate better by having a candidate
of their own to fool Democrats with
than they can by openly supporting the
Republican ticket. Not only are they
divided there, but they are also divided
all the way through when they come
to argument. Why, some of them will
Rtart out to show that the gold stand
ard is a good thing, and after one of
their speakers has gone on a while
showing what a great thing the gold
standard Is, then another speaker
comes along and he says that It is a
mistake to say that the gold standard
is good; the gold standard really Is not
good. What we want Is bimetallism,
but we cannot have it until somebody
helps us. (Laughter). Now, those two
arguments are not consistent. If the
Rold standard is a good thing, why
should they want bimetallism, and yet
if they ever have two men making
speeches the same night the chances
are 16 to 1 (Laughter) that one of
them will praise the gold standard as
a good thing while the other will tell
you how anxious they are to get rid of
It.
Well, then they como to the details
of the argument. One man says the
reason why he does not want free coin
age Is that he does not think that the
government should pass a law that will
enable the silver miner to take 00
cents worth of silver bullion and con
vert it into 100 cents and make the
difference, and he will get red In the
face and become indignant at the idea
that the government should attempt to
rob some Individual in this way. Of
course he may have been In favor of
a systemi of taxation that would give
200 or 300 tier cent, but that does not
count. It la a terrible thing to allow
the silver miner to make that profit.
Then the next man who comes up will
say that as a matter of fact the stamp
of the government adds nothing to the
value of the metal, and that the free
coinage of sliver simply means that
you convert 60 cents worth of bullion
Into a BO-cent dollar and nobody makes
any profit out of It. (Applause). Now,
I say that the chances are that If you
have two men making speeches on
the same platform In favor of our not
taking nny action until some foreign
nation helps us, you will find that one
of them will. In all probability, make
one argument and the other will make
the other argument, and very often the
same man makes both arguments.
Now you can see the absurdity of it.
If the silver miner, under the law of
free coinage, finds that his silver bul
lion is raised so that which is now
worth 80 cents will bo worth 100 cents,
then there are no BO-cent dollars, and if
the other man Is correct, and the law
adds nothing to the value of the metal,
and you simply convert GO cents worth
of silver into a 50-cent dollar, then the
mine owner hasn't made a cent.
MONEY QUESTION 19 AN EAST
ONE.
Well, then, you will hear other men;
If two men speak against our position,
one of them will probably say that
there has been no fall In prices and he
will denounce the people who are com
plaining that gold has risen in price,
and after he has proven that to the
satisfaction of every man who does
not think, then his colleague will tell
you that not only have prices fallen,
but that It la the greatest blessing in
the world to have prices fall. Now,
these two are not consistent, but it fol
lows all the way through. Why Is it?
It Is because our opponents have no
theory, no principle, no policy upon
which they are prepared to stand and
fight, and they do not dare to say
that the gold standard Is a good thing,
because no party In the history of this
country has ever declared In favor of
a gold standard, and they do not dare
to say that tho gold standard is a bad
thing and then tell 70,000,000 of liberty
loving people that they have got to
suffer until some foreign nation brings
them relief, (Cries "That is right!").
My friends, I want you to remember
that In the discussion of this money
question there are certain fundamental
principles, and when you understand
these principles you understand tho
money question.
I was out in a portion of the country
where they Irrigate on a large scale
and I found enormous plants, and In in
vestigating this the thought occurred
to me, What principle underlies the
subject of Irrigation? It is that water
runs down hill. When you understand
that water runs down hill all you have
to do Is to dig a ditch with a slant
and you can carry water wherever you
want. So It is with the money ques
tion. Tou have got to find out the
fundamental principles which underlie
the subject, and when you understand
them you understand the money ques
tion. What is the principle that under
lies it all? It Is the law of supply and
demand, which applies to money as to
everything else. You know that If the
world"! crop next year of a certain ar
ticle Is very much greater than the
crop this year, that article will fall in
price; if the crop la much smaller than
thla year that article will rise In price.
You know that the law of supply and
demand reaches and controls all sorts
of property. It reaches and controls
money as well as other forms of prop
erty. Increase the amount of money
more rapidly then the demand for
mossey Increases, and you lower the
Value of a dollar. Depress the quan
tity of money while the demand for it
Increases and you Increase the value
of a dollar. Now, when you under
stand that, then- you understand (he
essence of the money question. ' -
HE QUOTES MR. BLAINE.
When you understand that, you un
derstand that Its effects re en you, and
then you can tell where your interests
lie. When you understand that printu
pie. then you understand why uva
great crusade In favor of the guM
standard rinds Us home among the
holders of fixed investments, wno, pf
such legislation, raises the value of tha
property which they hold. (Applause.)
For this I can quote you authority
which your opponents dure nui tUea
tlon. I have called atetntlon, and I
Shall continue to call attention, to a re
mark made by Mr. Blaine in congress
on this subject. Ho said that the de
struction of silver ob money and ina
establishing of gold as tho sole unit of
value, must have a runlous ertocl uimiu
Investments which bring a fixed return
and upon -all forma of prop
erty except those In moneys
that these would be enormousiy
enhanced n value, and would gain a
disproportionate and unfair mlvaniUB
over other species of property, (Ap.
plause.) My frienda, there Is a atulo.
ment that no man who has respect for
his reputation would dare dispute, Tho
establishing of gold as a sole unit of
value throughout the world, and the
destruction of silver as a standard
money, means that you shall destroy
tho value of all property except mmuy
and Investments that call for a fixed
amount uf muney, It means that you
wilt give to these Investments and t
this farm at property money an ad-Vaiitan-'
ovpr ovary other form of prop
erty. When you understand tho offect
of tho policy, and then understand that
the) dmilre for It Is manifested most
among thoso who hold the fixed Invest
ments or trade In money, I think you
will come to the conclusion that I have
fome to, that the fact that tho gold
standard Is a gold thing for them la the
principal renson why they are in fuvor
of a gold standard. (Applause.)
Now, my friends, when you make up
your minds that the gold standard U
a. bad thing, then the only question that
you have to consider Is how you can get
rid of It? They can ralso objections to
the plan which we propose, but I want
to suggest that you are Interested not
to much in knowing tho objections to
our plan as in knowing whnt plans
they have to relieve the condition. Why
don't they propose something? Is it
because they do not know whnt ought
to be done? If so, they are poor people
to leud you out of bondage. la It be
cause they know and will not tell? If
so they haven't tho candor that ought
to be possessed by those who would
redeem the people from their Buffering
and distress.
WILL RAISE SILVER TO $1.29.
They Bay that our dollar wtl be a 53
cent dollar. Well now, my friends,
they refuse to apply to the silver that
Is produced In tho world the law of
supply and demand. We say. Increase
the demand, and that acting
with the demand now In exist
ence, will operate upon the
price of silver. We say that that new
demand Will be sufficient to consume all
the silver presented at the mint, and,
being sufficient will raise the value of
silver bullion to $1.29 throughout the
world. (Applause.)
We have a reason for our belief. They
simply say It won't do It and then sit
back and propose absolutely nothing.
Now, my friends, I have known some of
our opyonets to use this sort of argu
ment: Why, they sy. If the free coin
age of silver makes a silver dollar equal
to a good dollar, why then it will be
Just as hard to get a silver dollar as It is
to get a gold dollar. Do you know what
they overlook? They overlook the fact
that when we bring silver into competi
tion with gold we Increase the supply
of standard money; that while the sil
ver dollar will be worth as much as the
gold dollar, it will be easier to obtain
with the products of toll a silver dollar
or a gold dollar than it is today.
Our complaint is that the same hos
tile legislation which has destroyed the
demand for Bllver and driven down the
price of silver when measured by gold
has also Increased the demand for gold,
and driven up the price of gold when
measured by other forms of property,
and that the opening of our mints to
the free and unlimited coinage of silver
will operate to bring more money into
circulation and lessen the strait that
hns existed for gold, and that by in
creasing the demand for silver wo bring
silver up until gold and silver meet at
tho ratio now fixed by law, and a sli
ver dollar and a gold dollar will be of
the some value all over the world. (Ap
plause.) ASKED A LEADING QUESTION.
But I have spoken beyond the time I
expected to. I simply want to say this;
If there la any person here who is
afraid that under the policy proposed
by the Chicago platform we are going
to have a flood of money and that you
will be drowned In it, we cannot ap
peal for your support. But If there is
anybody here whose experience is such
that he is willing to risk the disastrous
consequences of that flood upon him,
we ask you to consider whether we are
not entitled to your vote. (A voice,
"Are you a Democrat?" I think that
tho principles which I advocate are
Democratic. ,(A voice, "Are you a
Democrat?") Yes. I am mvsclf thnt
but you can call me by any name you
. . . .
yic-anc, j uia i-umiui Fever nw? iroin
what I believe to be good for the peo
ple. (Tremendous applause.) . My
friends.I want you to study this money
question for yourselves, and I want
you to understand that if bimetallism
Is to be restored the United Stees must
take the lead. (Applause.) We have
waited for more than twenty years to
have the benefits of bimetallism brought
to us by those whose Interests are op
posed to ours. I assert that the American
people not only have the right, but have
the ability, to legislate for themselves
on every question, no matter what
other nations think about it. (Long ap
plause.) The man who says that bimetallism
Is desirable and yet the United States
is impotent to bring these advantages
to our people has made an admission
that I shall not make. We appeal to
you to remember that the United States
is the only nation that stands ready tc
protect Its own people from every dan
ger, foreign or domestic. (Applause.)
Other nations may protect their peo
Pie as they should, but ou Nation is
the only nation that can protect the
American people. (Afi1uuk?.1 If wc

must secure it '.or ourselves. And if we

Bureau of The Tribune,
No. 501 14th street, N. W..
Washington, Aug. 23.
Tho political pot has only been sim
mering for the past week, but it will
eoon come to the boiling point. All
parties are getting ready for the big
fight. Tho Republican managers seem
to be the best equipped for battle. They
have no side Issues to bother them like
their Demooratic-Populistlc opponents
have, and who seem to be all at sea
everywhere. In the south, where they
are depending upon getting a solid elec
toral vote for Bryan, they are at sixes
and sevens. Tho Populists, whom tho
Democrats expect to catch by placing
Tom Watson on their vice presidential
ticket In tho southern states only, are
up in arms agninst the deal, and threat
en to bolt the entire outfit if Shipbuild
er Sewall Is not taken off the ticket.
Senator Jones, chairman of the Demo
cratic national committee, who set up
the Job at the St. Louis Topullst con
vention, Is very much disturbed over the
outlook. He set the trap, but he is now
In danger of being caught In It himself
instead of ensnaring the Populists for
whom it was Intended. Before he left
for Chicago early this week. Senator
Jones stated to his Democratic friends
here that he anticipated no end of
trouble with the "rantankerous Pops,1
as he calls them.
Information comes from several of the
southern states, where Populism Is very
strong, that unless Mr. Sewall Is with
drawn tho Populists will fuse with the
Republicans on state and congressional
tickets, and thus endanger the election
of Bryan and' Watson electors.
Tom Watson knows he is only being
used as a stool pigeon by the Demo
crats, nnd that he stands no more
chance of election than he does of go
Inir to heaven In a balloon. Watson
was formerly a Democrat, but there Is
no person whom he hates worse than
a member of that party now. He Is
particularly bitter towards Mr. Bewail,
and all other Democrats, who are taint
ed with plutocracy. He despises a man
who has more money than he has. And
yet this Is the kind of a man the Dem
ocratic leaders are. trying to placate.
It Is said that Senator Jones Is will
ing; to promise him anything a cabinet
Job or a good foreign mission if he
will only behave himself in this cam.
palgn. But Watson will accept no ver
bal contract, and as Candidate Bryan
refuses to make any promises in writ
Inp, Chairman Jones finds It a mighty
difficult Job to shut Watson's mouth.
NO SOLID SOUTH.
The outlook for Democratic success
In the South is anything but promising
ut this writing. There are at least half
a dozen states south of Mason and
Dixon's line which are more than like
ly to cast tlelr electoral votes for Mc
Kinley and Hobart. They are Ken
tucky, Tennessee, North and South
Carolina, Florida and Virginia. Sen
ator Quay will have charge of tho Ite
publlcan campaign In the south, and he
Is expected to get down to hard work
upon his return from Florida. Senator
Quay Is probably the best posted north
ern politician on affairs in the south,
lie knows the people down there. He
lias made a study of southern politics
and the methods wed at the polls in
those states. Then he has the confid
ence of the southern leaders. He
knows them Intimately and will have
no trouble In getting them Into work
Ins harness. If under Senator Quay's
guiding hand, 'the Republicans cannot
break Into the solid South then they
might as well throw up the sponge.
Other leaders have tried their hand,
but with little or no success. It Is now
for Senator Quay to see what he can
do with the South.
Candidate Bryan's path In the West
is not strewn with roses, as his man
agers would have the people of the
Kast believe. He will not carry his
own state, Nebraska; neither ran he
carry Kansas, Oregon, Washington or
California. Ffom the best information
received at Republican congressional
headquarters those states will not only
go for McKinlcy and Hobart, but they
will send a large maorlty of sound
money members to the next congress.
All the talk about Bryan carrying
eve-ry state south of the Ohio and west
of tho Mississippi rivers Is the merest
twaddle. It is only done for effect in
the East. Well, the East will havo
none of it. Not only every eastern
state but every middle and western
state, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and
Michigan, will cast their electoral' votes
forMcKlnley.honest money and protec
tion, all the blowing of the Altgelds,
Joneses.Shankltns and the other windy
free silveiltes to the contrary. The
defeat of poor old Horace Greeley In
1872 will ba nothing compared to the
laying out Bryan and his outfit will get
next November. The tidal wave
which threatened a few weeks ago to
carry everything before it is rapidly
subsiding, and by the time election
day rolls around there will be nothing
left of the Bryan boom but wind and
there won't be enough of It to blow a
straw hat oft your head.
HOKE SMITH IS SAD.
Secretary Hoke Smith, the only mem
ber of. the Cleveland cabinet who la
supporting the Chicago ticket, who went
down into North Carolina and Georgia
a week or bo ago to feel the public pulse,
has returned a sadder but much wiser
man. Instead of getting the "glad
hand" as he expected, he was given the
"marble heart." He was given to un
derstand thnt he would be under sus
picion of not being loyal to the Chicago
ticket unless he came out squarely for
the platform, too. That Is more than
Hoke can swallow at one gulp. To sup
port the ticket, he thinks, Is enough to
ask of a man who stumped his state
against free silver, and to do that much
he will have to put a clothes pin on
his nose when he goes to the polls.
Secretary Smith's resignation Is still in
the hands of the president, but he is not
urging its acceptance. This is another
thing which his new political bed-fellows
have against him. They say that
If he is sincere for the Chicago ticket
he' ought to Insist upon the president
accepting his resignation. Secretary
Smith Is, Indeed, between wind and
water Just at present. He is under sus
picion with both factious of the Demo
cratic party. '
The struggle for the corps amont,
the Democratic factions In Pennsyl
vania Is amusing to anybody who
knows anything about the situation in i
that state. At present writing Mr. Har-
rity, although out of active politics, is
still all powerful. His friends are In
control of the organisation and from the
looks of things they are going to re
main in charge. An efftfrt Is being
made to have Mr. Harrity ousted from
the national committee, and his place
given to some one who is in sympathy
with Candidate Bryan and his free si!
ven contingent. It la said that Colonel
J. M. Guffey, the antl-Plarrlty leader in
Pittsburg, is anxious to supplant Mr.
Harrity on the national commit
tee National Chairman Jones has
no use for Mr, Harrity and If he
could do It he would remove him
at once. But as Mr. Harrity still holds
the reins Mr. Jones or nobody else can
force him off the committee. The stsite
convention, which Is to be reassembled,
may take some action. It may request
Mr. Harrity to step down and out, but
It is entirely optional with hlin whether
he does it or not.
The endorsement of James R. Young
for congress by the anti-combiners in
the Fourth district. Is very gratifying
to his friends In Washington, where he
Is well known. I1 or many years Mr.
Young held the position of executive
clerk to the United States senate. That
together with his long experience with
governmental affairs, well qualifies him
for a seat In either brunch of congress.
For him to return to Washington ns a
representative In congress would be
very pleasing to Mr. Young's friends
here. W. R. B.
SHOT AT THE "ARKS."
A Woman Member tf n "Suuclilicd
Baud" Killed by n Mob.
Suffolk, Vn., Aug. 23. A party of
nearly 200 citizens this morning, from
12 to 3 o'clock, made an attempt to dis
lodge a crowd of rolljrlnua fanatics, who
are styled the "Sanctified Band;" from
four "arks" on the Chowan river, near
Montrose, N. C, forty miles from this
city.
Tho "band" numbered 103 men, wo
men and children. One woman was
killed and severnl wounded. They had
not left the community when ordered,
and tho mob, with rliles, swords, and
pistols, gathered to drive them fi-om the
country.
Some local converts warned them and
the arks were removed fifty yards from
shore thnt they might be less exposed to
Intrusion. When told to hoist anchors
they absolutely refused, and the fusl
lado began.
Those on the boats went below the
water line as tho bullets crashed
through the boats.
Since being In that vicinity the
"binds" have made many converts, and
the congregations of old churches were
disintegrated nnd disrupted. The mem
bers of tho band preach sanctillcatlon
and holiness and free love.
