Respects in Which the I'lCM-nt
Campaign Is Peculiar.
Canton, O., Sept. 15. From the crests
of the AllcRlionles, 1,500 Htalwiift moun
taineer farmers of Somerset county,
Pennsylvania, descended on Canton to
day, to promise their support to Major
McKlnley and to assure- him that the
furiners in the highlands .are as earn
estly in favor of sound money us they
are of a protective tai ltT. The men of
Somerset made a brave showing. They
came with three lintuls und ninny ban
ners Inscribed with iippi'iipi lute party
mottoes. Kach mini wore a la rue clus
ter of golden rod on the lapel of his coat
and some fastened the emblematic blos
som to their hats. The men of Somer
set were dubbed "Frosty Sons of Thun
der" by one of I heir representatives In
a speech on the llonr uf the house in
Washington more than fifty years hro.
and today each man wore a yellow
bade with this, descriptive phrase upon
It.
The delegation was headed liy Editor
C.eorge It. Scull, lie told .Major Mc
kinley that the eiillnislusm wus so
strung niuonir the Pennsylvania moun
taineers this year that several hundred
men had uriseii before daylight and
walked ten miles across the mountains
in order to Join the Canton excursion
This was the largest delegation of farm--prs
Major McKlnley lias addressed at
his homo, it comprises one-lil'th of the
voters of Somerset county. Lusty
lungs were taxed to their utmost In
cheering Major McKlnley when he rose
to speak. After the tumult had subsid
ed, he said:
McKIXLKVS PPKKCII.
"It gives me sincere pleasure to meet
my friends and fellow citizens of Som
erset county. Pa., In my state, my city,
any my home. You have travelled more
than 250 miles to bring to me assur
ances of your confidence, und n your
purpose to give to the Ucpul'lican
party and lis glorious principles y.atr
united and hearty support, (fireni ap
plause.) It is dilllcult to appreciate
until the fact is known what this great
audience coining' from a sister state
represents. You have here in this as
semblage one-fourth of the voting pop
ulation of the ileptildlcnn iiuic,-. and
oue-lifth of the entire polling popula
tion uf the county. Applaii.e'.)
"It meuns, iny countrymen, not lit it
you niv interested 111 me per-ioually,
but that you have u deep nnd ever
alildliiK Interest in your country und
your counlry"H honor, it! rent cheering
and cries of 'Interest in McKlnley.') It
means, too, that yon ure tloenlv in
terested In the righll'ul settlement of
the great iiutioiial questions which di
vide us, and which are lo be sotiled !y
your voles, and those of your country
men next Xi'Xemher. (Applause.) I
am especially glad to welcome the cit
izens of Somerset county lo my home.
(Applause.) I recall I tin t in ill" years
of the past 1 have visited your moun
tain home and enjoyed more than 0111 n
your generous hospitality, und I trust
that the future will permit me lo ugum
visit thut delightful spot and renew our
former friendship. (Cheers.)
"Your spokesman says that Ihe pi o
ple of your county are devoted to
farming. Looking over this vast on-
I ilience and remombprms' how far yoti
. are from home, I should think you
I were devoted to Kcptitdicnn polliies.

national election ns this year l.MMi. AM
I the people are reading' and studying
I and Informing themselves In u larger
degree than ever before. Popular in
quiry was never so gt-at nnd popular
interest was never so profound. It Is
gratifying, too, that the masses of our
countrymen nre seeking the right for
ihe sake f f right, that they may pur
sue the right. They want lo know only
what is best for the country, what will
truly promote their own welfare mid
insure the grandest results for the
common good. 1 A 11pla11.se.)
"The poll ilea! :-lluaiioii of the coun
try is peculiar. Ve have had hut few
parallels to our present political con
dition. We have hul one p.lliii nl party
which is united and that is outs.
(Laughter and applause.) Discord
reigns In nil others. Our time-honored
opponent, the Democratic party, is torn
and divided. Two nalinmil conventions
have been held by it, niel two national
tickets presented, nnd their plutfoiius
are totally different mi every subject
and In almost every section. The pop
ulist party has Merged its organiza
tion Into thut of the Chicago Demo
cratic and St. Louis silver organiza
tions, nnd their allies are for the most
purt harmonious, exceiit Hint each one
has a distinct and different candidate
for vice president. ttlreat applause
and laughter.) Happily, the lipoidi
ca 11 party was never more closely tint
ed than now, both in fact und spirit,
and there wan never better reason for
such union, nnd never greater nec.-s-slty
for It than now. iCheerlni: .tnd
cries of 'that's right.')
"it Is wedded, devotedly wedded, lo
party principles. It stands us it has
always stood, for an American protec
tive tariff, which shall raise enough
money to conduct the several depart
ments of the government, including
HlH-rul pensions to the t'nlon soldiers.
(Tremendouu cheers and hurrahs for
McKlnley.) A tnrlff. thut will stop
debts and deficiencies, and make the
treusury of the t'niled States once
more sufe and sound in every particu
lar. (Cheers.) It stands for a reciproc
ity that seeks out tho markets of the
world for our surplus agricultural nnd
manufacturing products without sur
rendering a single day's wages that
belongs to the American workingman.
(Applause.) 'It believes In preserving
a home market for the American farm

factory for the American workingman
(applause); and the opening up nf a
foreign market wherever that can be
done with profit to nil the great in
terests nf the United States. (Re
newed applause.)
FOR HOUND MONEY.
"It Is, too, for sound money (great
cheering), every dollar worth one hun
dred rents, every dollar as good as
gold (continued cheering), and Is op
posed alike to free and unlimited coin

deemable paper money to which the

FREE SILVER WILL DOMINATE.
Xew York's Democratic State Con

Uuffalo, Sept. 13. Free silver will
domlnute the Democratic convention
tomorrow. Candidates, state issues
1. nd all other MUestloiis will be relegated
t second place. The platform will de
termine the ticket. The extreme sllver
Ites hope to out -Oh ion go the Chicago
platform nnd thus prevent the nomina
tion of u conservative Democrat.
This will be opposed by leaders, who
desire above all things to prevent a split
and the nomlnutiou of a second stale
Democratic ticket. Chief among these
leaders Is Senator Hill, who will not be
here, but whose Influence will be felt.
Al! talk of the abandonment of the
purty to Its fate by the senior senator
is nonsense. He has active lieutenants
on the field and the long distance tele
phone is part ! tl'c state machine.

Purls, Sept. 15. I. .1. Tynan, the
Irish "Invincible." who wns arrested
at Hon log nc 011 Sunday, has appealed
to 1'nited States Ambassador Kustls
and also to President Cleveland, de
manding the protection of the United

citizen.
London, Sept. 1.".. The Pall Mnll
Gazette asserts that It was the design
of the conspirator Tynan to blow up
Marlborough house, the residence of
the Prince of Wales, when his royal
higness should be there. According to
this yarn, the dynamiters intended to
reach the prince's house by tunneling:
ft 0111 the house opposite. This Is a fair
sample of the ridiculous stories con
cerning the alleged dynamite plot that
are filling many columns of the news
papers,, the most of which ure the
merest nonsense and would scarcely
be credited by the most gullible per
son. P0P0CRATIC CAMPAIGN PLANS.

traveling in his private car. The first
speech wns ut La Grange. Several
hundred people, with a heavy percent
age of pretty girls, cheered Mr. Hryan
when he came out on the back platform
of his special car. A sudden downpour
of rain did not disperse the enthusias
tic crowd that heard the candidate.
At Imminence, where the train arrived
at H.12. banners waved in the streets
und u brass band was 011 hand. Mr.
Bryan was in the midst of Ills remarks
when the clouds broke. A yell went
up from the crowd, numbering at least
2,500, and some ran for shelter, but the
majority held their places, huddled
close together under a sea of umbrel
las. Mr. Bryan said he would stop
talking until the rain ceased, but the
crowd would not let liliu, and he went
on. Among other things he said:
If iiuv man hi this coniniiinity would
offer to buy all the eggs produced ut "
cents a dozen and was able to make good
Ihe offer, nobody would sell cgas tor l-'ss,

A few people only braved the rain to

men which passed ihe stand from which
Mr. Bryan wns speaking. In the middle

ing u Very Impressive sight. They
cheered him now and again unit fell in

listened to the rest of the speech. Mr.

Nature smiles upon your husbandry.
Your soil hives forth in rich profusion. Put

Willi nil he run do with his Industry with
his economy, wilh all his patient loll, the
lot of tile American farmer grows harder

under the rule, those who waved .md
swept the sabre by right divine complaint
was answered with Ihe lash but now the
Just complaint of the toiling millions of
the United States Is answered by charges
that they are anarchists and socialists.
(Great applause.)
Friends, there Is one unfortunate thing
In connection with the use of the word an-,
archlsts. as applied to those who are bund
ed together to restore the money of the
constitution. There is one unfoitunuie
thing ill It. Anarchy Is a thing not lo be
considered In a land like this. Anurchy
can have no home among the people who
have the ballot to right their wrongs.
(Great applause.) And thu unfortunate
thing about this campaign Is that the
name anurehlst Is applied to the bono and
muscle of this country by men who are
doing more to overthrow our government
than any anarchist who ever carried a red
flag. I say that when this one word "An
archist" Is applied to the toiling millions
by men who exist without toil to usurp
the fruits and reap the rewards of those
who toll the danger Is that It will make
the name respectable because of its asso
ciation. (Uprorlnus applujise and loud
cheering.) w
PRAISB FOR THB MAS8F.8.
My friends, those who are opposed to

TIipsp very mpn who are abused and de

people who, lu time of emergency, must
protect their caliiniiators from themselvn
and their associates. There Is not u syn
dicate that has preyed upon the public
which would not rather try Its case
against another syndicate before Ihe com.
moil people of this couulry than before a

THE RESULT IN MAINE
Both National Chairmen Declare That
They Are Well Satisfied' with It.
Senator Jones' Prediction.
Washington, Sept. 15. Senator Jones
starts for Chicago tonight. He says he
is gratified with the result of his visit
to New York and this city, and snys
that he goes buck to Chicago sutlslied
with the condition of the campaign
anil more thoroughly convinced than
ever that Bryan will be elected. Speak
ing; of the election In Maine he said
It was far from discouraging to tho
Heniocruts, on the contrary, nil the cir
cumstances considered, it was quite en-
ciiiiragiinR'. There was a marked in-ci-ense
in the total Democratic vote
anil a very considerable increase in the
total free silver vote In that state,
where it bail been claimed nt the outset
there wus no silver sentiment what
ever. If this ratio of Increase should
be maintained ill ull the states, us he
believed i! would be, the election of
Hryuu would result with uu enormous
majority of the popular vote and a
large proportion of the slate electoral
votes.
THU TCKPUBLICAN VIEW.
Chairman Babcock, of the Republi
can congressional committee, this af
ternoon gave out a statement oil the
Maine election:
"The result of the election In Maine will
be of very great value to nil business and
litiHiiflal interests at. this lime. Il will
restore conlldeiice in financial cir
cles nol only In this country,
but throughout ihe world. We
looked for a large majority In Maine, but
hardly expected it to equal the plurultiy
given In ls'.'t. when so many Democrats re
fused to vole, bill it has exceeded thut
plurality by about Wiper cent., and 110 one
can for a moment doubt that this vote in
Maine Indicates the seiillmeitl of the greut
null Ii western siale. The slates where
there ure large luaiiufartiirliiK und agri
cultural Inleresis, ihe slides where peo
ple rend and have an Intelligent voting
1 iiPition. will, to luv ooinion. Join the
procession ami follow the lead set by Ver-
inont und Maine.
"The slluulion In a campaign Is to tie.
termiue wh'ch wuy the lide Is set ling. Tills
is olien extremely difficult lo do. Two
years ago at this time, after the (ii-ckoh.
Vermoiil ami Maine elections, 1 recognized
and cliiimed that ihey were inillculivp of
the sentiment of Ihe whole eoiiuliy, und
I believed thut that prarilcally settled ths
contest and my opinion unci predictions
were fully borne out by the result of No
vember. "This yeur the mutorities in Ver
mont ami Maine are much more pro
nounced and larger thiol they were two
,earu ago, and from this I can come to
c.tily one conclusion, as I have suld before.
I hat the greul inuniifuctiirlng and ugri
cul'ural states will follow Ihe cxumple set
liv Vermont uml Maine, nnd give such a
pronounced majority ngulnst free silver
and repudiation thut It will settle the ques
tion for ull time to come."

principle that 11 country Is rich In pro

lit to the human luce, for during Ihe
past thirty years it has added at least
one-eighth to every day of the civilized
inhabitants of tho world.
