In his most Impressive voice aud manner he began his |>eech with this question. “My Attend*, do you understand the ques tion of the free coinage of silver?" There was perfect silence as he paused orulorlcally. until s young working girt pitting In one of Ihe boxes asked tn a clear voice: “Do you?" The question waa unexpected and puz zling.

Gleason advertised a nor her meet ing for colored voter* and explained the a tuatlon to the new orator. "Go over there and talk to them w.th the bark on," waa his advice The laill was crowded when the new spesker arrived.

In he South snd In some of the Western states nearly all political apeaklng Is by Joint debate, the candidates of the'op posing parties making n tour of the state, district or county together and dividing time equally. Thla arrangement Insures an audience composed of the voters of each party where votes may be gained by good argument. During Ihe progress of such debates any voter In Ihe audience Is nt liberty to ask questions of Ihe candi dates and the latter are expected to an swer without taking or giving offense. The opposing candidates, no matter wtrat tfieir personal feeltr.ga or relations may he are compelled lo treat each o her with re spec* and the most formal eourteay In the presence of a mlxeo audience. No matter how great the political excitement may he these Joint discussions rarely result In conflict between the op|*)*lnc parties or factions liecouse Ihe leaders of each aldn hesitate to be flrst to atari a row or atrlke a blow. The hired spellbinder Is never employed for such debates. Cam paign msnagera say that few votee aro changed by the work of the spellbinders, but the voters of the country demand en tertainment and discussion, so the hired orator has become a fixture In American politics.
