Col. Bryan had stood quietly at tb#‘ rail
on the platform There was another at

Col Bryan began by referring to th**
vast auilence before him and sal*! that it
Indicated an Interest In th campaign
which must he gratifying to all who re
ahzd the Important*#* of the <iu*eHons ln
volved He and .dared that h*- wns not vain
enough to accept the enthusiasm tnanl
fested as n personal tribute to himself.
Uaus#*. he said, “the lnllv!#lual counts
for nothing except that he may la* the
instrument used by the t*ople to carry
out th*ir own will " He imm #liately en
tet*d u|*#*>n n b fens#* of the Democratic*
causes and said
Are Not Opposed.
"To -ay that th* j* #pl- gathered here
who support our cause are th# . n##ml#*s of
honest wealth Is a sander, which could
not Is* uttered without the one who ut
ter***! It knew It to be false We ar# not
oppose#! to that wealth which comes as
ibe reward of honest toil ami is ♦•n)yvd
by those who give to society xomethtng
In return for that which society throws
upon them The l>emo*ratlc party to-day
is not only not th#* enemy of hornst
wealth. Isit the Democratic party of t#>-
day is the best from! of that wealth that
represents ability of inuscl** or of mind
employed in Its accumulation "
Col. Bryan w*m on to #y that the par
ty draws the line betw#* n honest wealth
( ,nd predatory wealth, "between that
wealth which is a Ju>t compen-atlon fr
services render#d tind that wealth which
simply measures th* advantages whl# h
some citizen has taken over many clti
retis."
He declared that no honest Industry, no
honest occupation, no honest man need
f#*nr the success of th** Democrat!' party.
"The Democratic party." h< said, "showed
A* honesty by stating what 1* bellevad
and telling the people what It will do.”
He asked for a comisirlson of th** !* mo
cratlc platform with the Republican plat
form and expn*se##l confl#l*nce that any
honest min. making such comparison,
must be convinced of the sincerity of the
Democratic declaration and the hypocrisy
of the Republican platform.
Are Only Bakina Appeals.
Taking up the Republican declaration of
principles. Col. Bryan sakl that that par
ty Is not prepared to-day to make a fight
on a question before the country. "And."
he continued, "if you want proof, let n*
remind you that the Republican party to
•lay. Instead of presenting any great prin
ciple and defending it. Is presenting an
appeal to every class of people supposed
to be approachable in any dlr#-ction.
He then went on to enumerate the va
rious classes to which he sakl the Repub
licans were mak ng ►peclous appeals, and
Ik* Included in the list the farmer, the la
borer. etc. "It gives the laborer." h#
said, "the assurance ih? he will have a

that there will he u larg# army to make
him satisfied with his full dinner pail
He dr#*l*red thst the prosperity of which
the Republican party boasts la a different

he said, they tell you how prosperous the
farmer of the West is snd in the West
you hear of the high wages and general
