ply to a speech delivered yesterday by
William J. Bryan From the hall he went
to the Grand Opera House, where he ad
dressed the second audience, constituting
the eleventh which ha* heard him apeak
since he left Indiana poll* this morning
The day was ch.iranerlxed by Urge
crowd* and much enthudasm
In hi* speech at Vincennes Gov Roose
velt delved into HTfctory to a how that
through expansion that part of the state
of Indlina In which Vincennes 1* situat
ed whs add*d to the dominion of thl* gov
ernment, OOv. Roosevc-lt's address at
Evansville follows:
Gov. RooeoveK replied to Mr. Bryan's
assertion tha# the President asked for
an army of ino.Oft) men two vnoatha be
fore the Philippine war broke out. by
saying thut th** bill for an Increase of tn*
army was Intrcxhxel by Senator Cock
rell of Missouri, a Bryan supporter, and
wh> intended to meet the threatening con
ditions in the archipelago. At the time
the President's recommendation was
made, said Gov. Roosevelt, h collision
w * imminent wrlrh the insurgent army.
Gov. Roosevelt, in ha* turn, put these
questions to Mr. Bryan:
1 If elected, Mr Brysn. will you
pay the obligations of the nation In gold
or in silver? %
2. Will you ref use to accept the elec
toral votes of North Carolina because ob
tained without the consent of the govern
ed, and will you now at once denounce
ihe action of eour party associates who
helped to nominate you for establishing
by the constitution in North Carolina* the
doctrine that one rnnn is good enough to
govern another without hlw consent?
3. Will you denounce your party as
sociate* in Ptxngress. who voted on June
1 last, that the national government
should not be given the power to control
trusts?
To the queetlon* a*ko) by Mr Bryan
In a Michigan speech. Gov. Roosevelt
made the following repllew
Question 1: If a trust Is a good thing,
why did the Republican platform de
nounce trusts?
Answer The Republican party de
nounced the evils of trusts and pointed
out the way those evil* could be .octroilf.l
and minimised.
2. If the trust* are hud thing*, why did
the Republican administration allow more
trusts to be* organised than during all
previous hlstor> of the country?
An-wer: The Republican administration
did not allow more trust* to he organised
than during all previous history of the
country. The Standard Oil Company, the
American Sug*r Refining Company, ami
all the otner more important cruets came
into exigence long before ihe present ad
ministration. Moreover. Mr. Bryan
kftows perfectly weU that the na
tional government cannot prevent the or
ganisation of these trusi*.
Question 3: If some trust* are good
and some bad. can you tell the difference
between a good one and i had one?
Question 4: Do you know of any good
monopoly in private hands'*
Question 5: Do you know any man
good enough to stand at the head of a
monopoly and de*ermlnr the price of that
which oher* are to use?
Answer: Mr Bryan's terminology I*
here so loose that it Is dlfft- ult to know
what he means. If he u*es "trusts" In
the sense, of large corporation*, any Intel
ligent man must know that there ore some
good -orpor at ion* and some had corpon
tlons, and the difference between them
can le told as readily as the difference
between two wealthy private individuals.
As for monopolies in private hand*, pa -
ent* ore such monopolies, and If Mr. Brv
an means that all monopolies are had. he
means that patent law * non Id be abolish
**d outright Doe* he really m* an this?
If not. his wools mean nothing.
Question * Do you know of any good
reason why the army should be mode
100.00 b?
Answer: Here again Mr Bryan'* lan
guage Is loose If he I-. *|eaking of the
present army of ©,•*) tegular* and 35.00)
volunteers, then every man who possess
es an ounce of common hense or an ounce
or patriotism must know not only that
there 1* very good reason for having bad
it. hut no possible excuse for refusing
to have it. It has been needed in the
Philippine*. It has been needed In t’hlna
Question 7: Would you be willing to
make the army 300.000 if the Republican
leaders said no. or a half million If they
wanted It?
Answer: It Is hard to believe that this
question I* put In good fabh. for no one
has dreamed of asking for on army of
SUi.noo or a ha.f-mlllton. No Increase of
the army will ever he asked for by He
publbwns nave because of reawjns which
would eatlsfy Ihe people a* they were
satisfied In the days of lAncoln.
Question : What la your title to the
Filipinos? Did you buy them or did you
get them by force? V
Answer: There le. of course, no title
to tie- Filipinos, save as there Is a tltie
to the Inhanttants of Alaska or of the Ha
waiian Islands. The Philippine Islands
were acquired under President McKinley
by treaty and purchase, exactly a* the
lulslana territory was acquired under
Jefferson.
Question Do you think you can buy
the right to govern people?
Answer: Tnht has already been answer
ed in my reply to No . Kvldentiy
Thomas Jefferson thought tha we could
buy the right to govern the Indiana of
the l-mikrtana purchase.
Question 10: What are you going to do
with the Filipino when you get him?
Are you going lo kill hlro?
Answer: We are not going o klil th
Ftllplno until he tries to kill our soldiers,
ind he will stop trying to kill our aol
dler* very soon after he becomes con
vinced that h will receive no old In Ihe
effort from the parly of which Mr Bry
sn Is chief As to whai we are going to
do with him the answer Is simple. Wo
are going to clvllla* him.
