Co hoes, lo the mass of Ihe employe* of the cotton and woolen mills, and at Albany, to two Immense me.-t.ng*, one !r. the opera house and one outside, composed of the best element of the city.

Mayor Samuel M Jones of Toledo and J. J Delaney of New Yurk. He**re. Bulger.

The great meetings of thl* trtp were held at Troy, the home of ex-Senator Murphy, and Albany, the home of ex- Senator HIM. Mr. Hill In absent In the West. At both Troy and Albany the meetings were phenomenally large and enthusiastic. Immense overflows having to be held to accommodate those who de sired either to see or hear Mr. Bryan. During thl* traverse of the two skies of a triangle, Mr. Bryan alluded to many things filch he has not mentioned at many other places during the campaign. At Hudson he said; Mexico Is Better Olf. "I believe that Mexico is far better off because we took our flag .town from the capital wnen the Mexican war w over, and brought it bark to the Rio Grande. I think Mexico Is better to-day. and we are better than If we had held a carpetbag government in place there by means of bayonet*, and I think that self government In Mexico, half-Spanish and ualf-liatdn. has developed the people more and has brought them further than would have been the case, had we held them under our dominion; and If you doubt It, look at Mexico and compare Mexico with India. "I nder thirty yeara of self-government Mexico has mode more progress than In ula has made In one hundred and fifty years oppressed hy an Atiglo-S.-ixon sol diery. They only have 100,00 English In India out of RJO.OOO.uOO. and It takes an army of 70,0W> British soldiers to take care of the British population, and It takes a native ormy of HO.iJfifl to help the British army of 70,000 In Its work of protection." At Troy, he said: Non n tiemll l on Party. "The Republican party has changed its Ideas and Its Ideal* In the last quarter of a century.

Ho paid a high tribute to Lafayette and his service to the American colonies In their war for freedom, and spoke of the gift of the Hialuc of Liberiy In New York harbor from th> people of ihe French re public. and asked: "Bhail we Inks that statue down and send It back to France and tell the people of France that we are not In the liberty business any more?

The Albany meeting* were not begun as promptly a* some that had taken place elsewhere. A parade kepi the assemblages In Ihe street and theater waiting. The theater was filled to repletion, and a large overflow on the outside commanded Mr Bryan's attention. Mr Bryan's voice showed palpable signs of wear. ,He aald, In part: ' The Republican party goes on the the ory that society Is built from the top. They say. take care of the well-to-do and they will take care of those who are not well-to-do. and when you tell them of the story of 1-asaru* and Dives, they say •What a lucky man I-axaru* wa* lo have a Dive* near, so he could get the crumb* that fell from Dives' table.'
