ATLANTA’S DISTINGUISHED GUEST. K'S-j$v! ! v ; wrr : ii HON. \VM. J. BRYAN. FAMOUS CROSS OF GOLD SPEECH WHICH SECURED THE NOMINATION Excerpts From Mr. Bryan’s Chicago Oration. PerliapH never In the history of American politics did one speech ho cearly make a man's reputation an that delivered at the Chicago convention of 1896 by William Jennlnga Bryan. Al though Mr. Bryan's part In the con- KreMHlonnl debate on the repeal of the Hheriuan law In 1893 nuule him known all over tile country, the effect of the Chicago Apeech was electrical and transformed an undreamed of candi date Into the Democratic presidential nominee. From thin Introduction, which by Its 1 need not fear that a tyrant will spring supreme dignity and force Immedlut # } up from nmnnK the people. What we ly secured the attention of an excited 1 """;' ■* "" Andrew Jackson to stand, invention, he swayed the throng of t«" Jackson stood, against the encroach- men and In IiIh climax transformed wilderness, who have made the desert to bloom as the rose—the pioneers away out there (pointing to the West), who rear their children near to nature's heart, where they can mingle their voices with the voices of the birds— out there where they have erected school housed for the education of the young, churches where they praise their Creator, and cemeteries where rest the ushett of their dead—these peo ple, we say, are as deserving of the consideration of our party us any peo ple In this country. It 1h for these that we speak. We do not come us uggressors. Our war Is not a war of conquest; we are fighting In defense of our homes, our families, and pos terity. We have petitioned, and our petitions have been scorned; we have entreated, and our entreaties have been disregarded; we hove begged, and they have mocked when our calamity came. We beg no longer; we entreat no more; we petition no more; we defy them. "The gentleman from Wisconsin has said that he feared a Robespierre. My friends, In this land of the free you them Into a chaos of frenzied mild with enthusiasm. He started off: "Mr. ('huirmun and (lemlemen of the Convention: 1 would lie presumptuous Indeed to present myself against the distinguished gentlemen to whom you have listened If this were a mere meas uring of abilities; but this Is not a mtest between persons. The hum blest cltlsen In nil the land, when dud In the armor of a righteous cause, Is stronger than i II the hosts of error. I •ome to speak to you In defense of a •ause as holy as the cause of liberty— the cuuse of humanity. When this debate Is concluded, a motion will be made to lay upon the table the resolution offered In commen dation of the administration, and also the resolution offered In condemnation the administration. We object to bringing this question down t,t the level of persons. The Individual is but an atom; he Is born, he acts, he dies; but principles are eternal; and this has been a contest over a principle." Then after plunging Into the history of the silver movement among the Democratic party, he warmed up In oratorical fervor: "Ah, my friends, we say not one word against those who live up the Atlantic coast, but the hardy pioneers have braved all the dangers of the nts of organised wealth. "They tell us that this platform was made to catch votes. We reply to them that changing conditions make new Is sues; that the principles upon which Democracy rests are as everlasting as the hills, but the>* must be applied to new conditions as they arise. Conditions have arisen and we are here to meet these condition!." "You come to us and tell us that the great cities are In favor of the gold standard; we reply that the great cities rest upon our broad and fertile prai ries. Burn down your cities and leave our farms, and your cities will spring up aguin, as If my magic; but destroy our farms and the grass will grow In the streets of every city In the coun try. "My friends, we declare that this na tion Is able to legislate for Its own people on every question, without wait Ing for the aid or consent of any other nation on earth; and upon this issue we expect to carry every state In the 1’nlon. I shall not slander the Inhahl tants of the fair state of Massachu setts nor the Inhabitants of the state of New York by saying that, when they are confronted with the proposi tion. they will declare that this nation is not able to attend to Its own busi ness. It Is the issue of 1776 over again. Our ancestors, when but 3,rtOO,O0ft In number, had the courage to declare their political Independence of every other nation; shall we, their descend ants, when we have grown to 70,000,- 000, declare that we are les imf pend ent than our forofathers? No, my friends, that will never be the verdict of our people. Therefore, we care not upon what lines the battle Is fought. If they say bimetallism Is good, but that we can not have it until other na tions help us, we reply that. Instead of huvlng a gold standard because Eng land has, we will restore bimetallism, and then let England have bimetallism becuuse the United States has It. If they dare to come out In the open field and defend the gold standard as a good thing, we will tight them to the utter most. Having behind us the produc ing masses of this nation and the world, supported by the commercial In terests, the laboring Interests and the tollers everywhere, we will answer their demund for ir gold standard by saying to them: You shall not press down upon the head of labor this crown of thorns; you shall not crucify mankind on a cross of gold.” Park Auction Sale MONDA Y, SEPT. 24, 1906.

The program omits the authorship of "Around the Town," which Murray & Mack have chosen for their Instrument of torture this season. Aftenfthe per formance at the Grand Wednesday night, It was strongly suspected that Ollie Muck wrote It himself, with the assistance of the bell boy. It Is the limit, and then some. But a long-suffering public, forget ting what the two are now in the mem ory of what they used to be, might forgive them hud they not ventured far. It didn’t matter much what they did to the comic songs of today— nobody could make them much worse— but when Gladys Van butchered "Be lieve Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms," It was too much. There are some things even the downtrodden public can not suffer in silence. Why did they let her do It?

Every day some laughable incident is related ns having taken place during the trembling of the earth on the Pacific coast. One of the funniest Incidents and one actually en acted is being told by Al. G. Field, the minstrel, who will appear Friday and Saturday at the Grand. van during the seismic disturb ances In ’Frisco,” runs the story. "The ground was trembling viciously and an >ld darky, panic-stricken, ran f..»;n his cabin on the outskirts of the city. He topped «»n his knees In the road and ried out, *Oh, Rordy! I-ordy! sen yo* son down yere. Bumpin’ terrible am gwine to happen In a minute.' At that Instant the earth trembled again ami tall brick buildings on the oppo site side of the street fell with a crash. •The old darky dropped to the ground | again, and cried out louder than be fore. 'UU, Lordy! Lcrdyt Doan* yo PICTURE OF WM. J. BRYAN AT ST. LOUIS CONVENTION BY JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES Following the national Democratic convention In St. Louis In 1204. when Judge Alton B. Parker waa nominated for president to oppose Roosevelt, Hon. John Temple OraveB, who was in at tendance upon the convention, wrote from St. Louis his Impression of Wil liam Jennings Bryan—the overtowering figure of the occaslon. In that tribute to the great Nebraskan he said: “But all tributes and all orations In the great historic assembly of dele gates and people fade Into Insignifi cance beside the continuous popular Idolatry that followed William J. Bry an. It was not only one time, but every time; not upon special occasions, and upon the slightest provocation any suggestion of him swept the vast as sembly Into a storm. Every mention of his name was magical. The sight of his Impressive figure was a signal for the wildest enthusiasm, and he alone waa potential to still the storm which his slightest word let loose. Took Bryan to Still the Storm. “Time and time again, when the Democratic chairman and the sergeant at arms, and the officers, and the po lice, were simply as leaves In the temp est of popular excitement, one lifted finger of the great Nebraskan could bring almost Instant stillness to the turbulent enthusiasm which all the or ganized forces of the Democratic con vention could not control. "No man ever saw Bryan—the real Bryan—unless he saw him at St. Louis. Those who have seen him else where have seen the great but tranquil teacher, preaching in patience and bid ing his time. Those who saw him at St. Louis saw Bryan at his best and greatest, with all the lion aroused by opposition and offense, and all his mar velous eloquence winged to Its loftiest flight by the occasion and the emer gency. And to have seen Bryan at his best was to have seen the world's best at hla best. "For no man living and few men dead have ever looked upon so peerless an orator, so Incomparable a master of assemblies as Bryan at St. Louis. The ■delegates before him were Iron, pledged, predetermined, Inaccessible and Immovable. Men could have been selected from that vast assemblage, with open minds and untnstructed wills, and given an hour to this matchless leader of men. and he could have swayed and led them as Demosthenes moved the Athenians to ‘march against Philip, to conquer or die.' "When the student of oratory In art, or the student of popular leadership In expression, seeks In the future an Illustration to make Immortal on can vas or In description, he will find the Ideal In the great Nebraskan, who was the unchallenged and unequaled hero of the Democratic convention ol 1904." SOME OF MR. RRYAN'S MOST POPULAR STORIES William Jennings Bryan la a good atory teller. Besides punctuating his iipeeches with homely anecdotes he en livens his conversation by recounting stories possessed of the merit of having a good point. Mr. Bryan's stories fall into two classes: Those he has gleaned at home and the recent acquisitions from foreign sources which he carefully se lected and stored away for future ref erence during his trip around the globe. The anecdotes that smack of the red soli of Nebraska are the best for po Jltical speeches. The tales that came to him In Japan, India or Turkey he reserves for the private ear of his friends. In his speech at New Haven and again In Newark Mr. Bryan used an anecdote to Illustrate what Mr. Bryan says the Republican party has been doing to excuse Its failure to curb the trusts When he launches this yarn he pulls down the corners of his mouth In a quizzical manner, afreets a drawl and slowly moves his head from side to side aa If his was the task to recite the obituary over the body of one late ly departed. "There was once a man," goes Mr. Bryan’s story, "who was sued In court for returning with a crack across the bottom of It a kettle he had borrowed from a neighbor. The neighbor very angry. "The man who was sued put up three defences. First he said that he hadn't borrowed the kettle. Then, when that failed he said that the ket tle was cracked when he borrowed It. And Anally when his second argument was disproved he said that he had mended the crack before he returned the kettle. "And that," concludes Mr. Bryan, "Is the way the Republican party defends Itself against the charge of not keeping Its promises on the subject of trust reg. ulatlon." The Nebraskan’s argument that the Republicans draw campaign funds out of the pockets of the men who find the high tariff to their advantage he finds ell. illustrated by . a story which Is not altogether new. After explaining Ills belief that no Republican dare touch the present tariff for fear of of fending those who, he alleges, contrib ute the money for the campaign work, Mr. Bryan tells the following: "There was once a man who went into a clothing store. He stole a coot and started to run down the street. The clothing dealer hurried out Into the street and shouted 'Stop thief!’ but the thief would not stop. "Then the clothier appealed to a po llcemon and the policeman shouted Stop thief!’ but the thief would not stop. Then the policeman drew his revolver and shouted to the fleeing thief, ’Stop or I’ll flreU Then the ex cited clothier cried out to the police man: Shoot him In the pants; the coat belongs to me!’ "So there you nre," concludes Mr. Rryan after reciting this anecdote. •The Republican party don’t dare to shoot the thieving trusts In the coat, because the coat belongs to them. They don’t dare to shoot the trusts In the pants because the pants belong to them. They don’t dare to shoot any where. for fear of hitting something that belongs to theq^ Mr. Bryan sometimes makes Jokes at the expense of himself and of the Is sues on which he has met defeat. While he was being taken over to Newark on the third day of his stay In New York he told the newspaper men this tale: "My former campaigns and the re sults that came of them remind me of a man who came out to Nebraska to take up a farm," said he. ’This man was a greenhorn and he did not know much about the cyclones that some times visit our prairies. But he had some sort of wisdom. "He put a strange looking wooden fence about his place that looked like a chicken coop. It was built In a tri angular shape. A farmer drove by when this greenhorn was putting up his fence and commented upon its ap parent Instability. " ‘Why, the first good wind that comes along,’ he said, ’will blow your fence over like jackstraws.’ ’"Oh, all right,’ said the greenhorn, who was also an optimist. *My fence Is five feet broad at the bottom and four feet high. If It blows over it will be a foot higher than It Is now.” "That’s what I hope my political fence Is like," said Bryan, with a laugh. Another Bryan story was lifted bod ily by Congressman Lentz in his speech at New Haven on August 31. Mr. Lentz was busy holding the crowd until Mr. Bryan should appear from the meeting of the New England Dem ocrats In the Tontine Hotel, across" the street, so the use of the Bryan thunder was, perhaps, permissible. There was once a funeral out In Nebraska—so runs the yarn—and the preacher who had been asked to de liver the eulogy was a stranger In town and did not know the departed sister very well. So after he had snld all that he could he suggested that If anybody else could say a few words about the poor dead sister It would be a good thing to say them. Three or four of those who had known the deceased in her lifetime made appropriate remarks. Then there was a pause. At last one old brother rose and said: "Well, If we’re all through speaking about the departed sister, 1 will now- make a few brief remarks on the tariff.” Mr. Bryan enters Into the spirit of his stories with great gusto, gesticulat ing with his hands and modulating his voice to suit the periods. His eyes are expressive; they light up before the point of the story la reached and his play actor’s mouth trembles Into a smile. When the point of the story comes each word Is enunciated slowly and distinctly with a lingering emphasis on each-"Ss If the narrator was loath to come so soon to the end of his tale. After he had been Interviewed for the last time by the newspaper men who had followed him about on his Jour neys out of New York, Mr. Bryan, re membering that he waa once a reporter and not forgetful of the difficulties that sometimes beset the path of the Inter viewer, told the newspaper men about how he was once Interviewed In n rapid Are manner In Louisville, after he had been defeated the second time for the presidency. "A young man bustled up to me with his pad all ready," said Mr. Bryan, 'and announced that he had been sent by his city editor to Interview me. " ’Mr. Bryan, are you going to run again for president?’ he asked. •• ‘Well,’ said I, ’in view of the fact that I have been defeated within two weeks It would be hard to answer that question.’ ’"AH right, scratch that. Now, Mr. Bryan, what will be the next platform of the Democratic party?’ 1 certainly am not In a position to tell.’ He drew another line through his pad. "‘Now, Mr. Bryan, what person do you think will be available to run for president on the Democratic ticket If you do not run again?’ Again I can not answer that ques tion,’ I replied with earnestness. ’All right, Mr. Bryan; much obliged; pleased to have met you; good-by.’ Now, there was n man who had done what he had been told to do," concluded Mr. Bryan with a hearty laugh. Th6 Commoner relates with great glee one Incident that befell him In Jn- pan. He went to one of the temples In Toklo to see the shrines of some of Ja pan’s departed statesmen. It was at Shtba park, where the most beautiful of the Tukugawa temples are located. This was the first Japanese temple that Mr. Bryan had ever visited. He was accompanied by several dignitaries of the municipality of Toklo, who had come to act as an escort of honor. At the temple door the Japanese gen- LIFE INSURANCE Do you contemplate in surance 1 Write me for ‘‘inside proposition.” Money saved is money made. Best old line com pany. Address P. O.

The Bijou offering, "A Wife’s Secret,” may well be classed with the most pop ular attractions of the season at the Marietta street play house. It presents a most attractive story which set* forth a powerful moral. A* a picture of real, breathing human life the play com mends itself to theatergoers. The role of leading Interest I* that of the young wife of the rector portrayed by Grace Hopkins. She is turned out of a happy home because of fancied wrong-doing and the husband will not listen to an explanation, being prompted by the voice of a spinster sister, who Is the chief mischief-maker. The Interest Is sustained throughout the four acts and It Is only during the last five minutes of the play that the final denouement of the story Is given out. Better pleased audiences than those who arc attending the |b rforr.mnce this eek have seldom witneead a drama at tit UU*»J and It Is not surprising that ’ uanv. la also In •’Wonderland.” the capacity of the popular play house Is taxed nightly. Mary Marble and Littls Chip. The latest musical comedy New York success. ’’Wonderland,’’ by Victor Her bert and Glen MacDonough, produced and staged by Julian Mitchell, will be the attraction at the Grand next Mon day and Tuesday. The plot of "Wonderland” Is based upon a German fairy story of the Brothers Grimm and tells of eight princes who are given to wandering over the land as they usually do In fairy tales. They live tn an enchanted castle and through the love philters of u Doctor Fax, a specialist on affairs of the heart, they win the affections of the eight chnrriitng daughters of the King of Herat. An abundance of fun Is furnished by Dr. Fax. This role Is played by Little t-|,| p> the clever en tertainer who made so many friends during his engagement with the Welles- Dunne-Harlan Company. Mary Mar ble, another member of the same com- tlemen began to remove their shoes, according to unalterable custom. Mr. Bryan took off his oxford ties and was horrified to find that most of the great toe and part of the second toe of one of his feet were protruding boldly from his sock. There was no help for It; the grant American statesman with his guard of honor had to patter over the bronxe floors of the shrines at Shlba with two toes exposed. "Never have I felt the lack of dignity so much as on that occasion,” say* Mr. Bryan, "Anyway, I bought tha socks in Japan and that accounts for the fnct that such a hole could he worn between the time I put them on In the morning and the time I took off my shoes at the temple door In the afternoon.”—New York Hun.
