Seaborn Wright and Hoke Smith and Pope Brown and other Georgian*, and : think that when I return 1 shall be plain Jennings Bryan and keep com pany with you Georgians in the name. Mr. Bryan paused to pay a com pi I mnnt to ybung Lamar Hill, president of the Young Men’s Democratic League, and his address of introduction In the afternoon. He recounted one of hta< own early experiences and created a laugh with an anecdote of his flrsf et'imp speeches. "It encourages me to know that so many able Democrats are ready to rapport Democracy,” he continued: ”1 a in willing to put these gentlemen, who have spoke so ably, against the aa- raults of predatory wealth. But I wish to enlarge a little on some subjects of which I have spoken. And In so doing 1 reserve the right to express but my «>wn views on the subjects which are now in the public eye. Upon my return to America I dls nissed briefly everything that I be Ileved It would be necessary to dfs- • uxs during the campaign, thus fore- rtaliing my Republican critics, who have snld that I try every Issue that van be tried and drop those which 1 And unpopular. In doing so I reserved It for a future occasion to enlarge upon any subject. >n railroad legislation I came to my piesent vlewa only after a long de liberation.

There Is not a state In the country which has not It* railroad lobby to corrupt legisla tors and prevent or delay the passage or enforcement of railroad regulation measures. When a rate bill Is passed by a stale they go to the courts with Injunctions nnd hold up the action •' the laws through endless delays. It was only because the president dared to go beyond his pnrty, outside of his platform, that the passnite of the na tional rate bill was secured. “I Dread ths Experiment,” ”1 will be frank and say that I dread an experiment where all the station agents and brakemen nnd trackwalk ers will be appointed from Washing ton. I am a Democrat, and I view with alarm the obliteration of stnte lines ami the Increasing Influence of Washington, llut I see In the future a dual ownership—slate lines owned by the states and trunk lines owned by the national government. "You need not consider that now, but believe that It will come In time. The nation can build Its trunk lines nnd the states need not act until they are ready. They need not settle the question at once; they can own their lines or not as they choose. “The question of whether state own ershlp is practicable does not bother me at all. In Burope the roads are owned by the government. In Oer- niany the railroads are owned by the several states and not by the empire, and there Is no difficulty In manage, ment. Neither am I afraid when they tell me It will give the party In power too great a hold on the employees. I hnve had less trouble In my campaigns with employees of the government than with those of the railroads. I have had men come to me nnd vote for me. while wearing the button of the other party on the outside of their casts and my button on the Inside. I ant more afraid of the employee of the railroad than of the servant of the administration In power. "A Wrong to Be Righted.” But when I see a wrong that can be righted I point It out and I take the responsibility for my views. If the Democratic party Is not willing to meet Iseues and protect the people. It can not expect the confidence of the P *"I Pl belleve that under a Democratln administration we should have a better enforcement of the railroad rate bill than under the Republican party. Bnd I say this while admitting that there has been corruption In Democrat! ■ states as well as In Republican states. 'Hoke Smith and I have disagreed In somethings, but he has been my friend. He was my friend In the cabinet and I respect him more since hit herd light In his recent campaign. “If there Is a Democrat here who wants reform, let him drive out rail road ownership, for It la the only way he can secure his liberty. The railroads can never be controlled until they are made to ae* that they hold their rights under sufferance, and that unless they out of their hnnds Into the hands of the people. "Nothing has gratified me more In the past twelve months thnn to find the growth of the democratic Idea every where. All around the globe, In Japan, In China. In Russia, the Democrats are working. All over Europe the Demo cratic Men Is spreading. In Amerlra among Republicans and Democrats the Ideas one considered radical a few years ago are beginning to be recognised as safe and sound and necessary. No Campaign Funds From Corpor ationt. "My friends, I believe that In our nexi campaign we should not accept a cent of campaign funds from n corpor ation. No money should be accepted from any Individual on an understand ing that he shall receive something In return which may not be told freely to the people. We must have no secrets from the people. "To my mind It 1s a hopeful sign that so many well-to-do men are taking an Interest In politics nnd I believe thnt we shall have many more well-to-do men In our party In the next campaign than ever before. it w'ould have been better to apply these reforms several years ago than today. It Is better to apply them now thnn to Walt five or six yearn. Today the Democratic party is marshalling under Us banner the people who want a free government preserved.. These people who have been stealing by law, who have been committing grand lar ceny from the people, wno have ac cumulated money they did not earn and for which they cannot have any use. nre debauching society. We can Insist that our nation be restored to Its old footing and give the people the opportunity to which they are entitled. I would protect the man who earns >100 a day at readily as the man who earns I fl. But we must give equal protection to all. "It Is trus that all great questions In their last analysis are moral questions and the conscience le the only power that can be Anally appealed to. Ah, my friends, it Is conscience that com pels the right. In this great Amerlra we are going to nppenl to the con science of the people and If t mistake not we nrc on the eve of a great ethi cal revival. Men are learning that llfo Is not what w* get out of the world, but what we put Into the world. •if Democracy will be true to lie Ideals I believe that when the cam paign of 190* Is over we shall have a great and glorious victory. No matter who the candidate may be, no matter whether he comes from the North or the South, the East or the West! The INTERESTING FACTS. For Nearly Every Man, Woman or Child. A short time ago we published an article recommending to our readers the new discovery for the cure of Dye pepala, called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets, and the claim then made regard ing the wonderful curative properties of the remedy have been abundantly sustained by the facts, l’eople who were cautious about trying new rem edies advertised In the newspapers and were Anally Induced to give fftuarl's Dyspepsia Tablets a trial were sur prised and delighted at the results. In mnny cases a single package costing but 60 rents at any drug store made n complete cure and In every Instance the most beneficial results were report ed. From a hundred or more received we have spare to publish only a few of the latest, but assure our readers we receive an many commendatory letters that we shnll publish each week a fresh list of genuine, unsolicited testimonials and never publish the same one twice. From James Yemmelsler, La (.'rosso, Wla.: Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are doing me more good than anything I ever tried and I was so pleased at re sults that I gave away several boxes to my friends who nave also had the same beneflts. From Jacob Anthony,- Portmurray. New Jersey: I have taken Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets with the best re sults. I had dyspepsia for alx years, and had taken a great deal of medi cine, but the Tablets seem to take right a hold nnd I feel good. I am a farmer and lime burner and I heartily recom mend to every one who has any trouble with his stomach to use these Tablets. From Mrs. M. K. Wesf, Preston, Minn.; I have received surprisingly good effects from using Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets. I gave one-half of my fast box to a friend who also suffered from Indigestion and she had the same good results. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a cer tain cure for all forms of Indigestion. They are not claimed to be a cure-all, but are prepared for stomach troubles only, and physicians and druggists everywhere recommend them to *11 per sons suffering from nervous dyspepsia, sour or arid stomach, heartburn, bloat ing or wind on stomach and similar disorders. Overflowing Crowd. Long before the hour announced for the dinner to Mr. Bryan the corridor of the Piedmont was filled. The din ing room was not opened until 9 o'clock, and before that time It was necessary to station s policeman at the door to preserve order and prevent the guests from pushing their way in. The open ing of the doors was the algnal for a rush for the best seats. The speakers' table was placed at the south end of the room, with Mr. Bryan In the center, and linmediatelv before a large window. In the street outside hundreds of men and women waited with Impatience for the Intro ductory speeches to be finished that they might hear Mr. Bryan. Thej stood there from 8 o'clock until long after midnight, and the crowd In creased as the evening wore on Instead of diminishing. At the speakers table, on the right of Mr. Bryan, was Burton Smith, toast master. On Mr. Bryan's left sat Gov ernor J. M. Terrell. The others at th speakers' table were; Roby Robinson. Arnold Broyles, F. L. Seely. R. B. Ar nold. J. Pope Brown. 8. A. Itnddenbury P. A. Stovall, Lamar Hill, Seaborn Wright, J. J. Hastings, W. A. Coving ton, E. K. Overstreet, John Temple Qraves, H. W. Alexander, James O. Woodward. J. 8. Cohen. E. P. Burns, Charles Daniel, Lauren Foreman, Sam D. Jones, J. E. Maddox. E. E. Dalllx and C. L. Bartlett. Dr. C. E. Dnwman, pastor of the First Methodist Church, delivered a short Invocation. When Mr. Bryan en tered the band struck up "Dixie," nnd the cheering continued for Several mo ments. Many Eloquent Addresses. Though limited In time, some of the addressee were gem* of oratory which thrilled the audience. Seaborn Wright, of Rome, awept the house with a mag nificent appeal for railroad ownership and cheers followed his declaration that Atlanta was already' crying for ownership of Its street railway. In ra lly to Burton Smith, who welcomed ilm back to the Democratic ranks, he denied that he had ever left the party, and declared that It was his privilege to welcome Mr. Smith and his branch of the party. W. A. Covington, of Colquitt county, delivered but a short address In the style which made him famous In the house of representatives and sent out an eloquent call for purity In the party. ' P. A. Stovall, of Savannah, spoke eloquently In behalf of tariff reform. 8. A. Roddonbury, of Thomaxvilte, made n humorous adtlress In which he talked of south Georgia and her claims on Democracy. Hoke Smith rccupled a chair at the press table. Though he had asked not to be called upon for a speech, the au dience called for him at the conclusion of Mr. Bryan's address and he respond ed with n few wonts. You have won the people's fight,” he said, "but the battle Is not oVer. Don't feel that you have finished the fight. Alraady.agents of the corpora tions are plotting to defeat you. It Is necessary that the next legislature In corporate your platfonn In the laws of the state and your executives enforce these laws. Don't quit the light. Keep on fighting and let your voices be heard." At the conclusion of Mr. Smith's re marks W. Trox Bankston, editor of Th* West Point News, proposed three cheers for Bryan nnd Hoke Smith, "the next Democratic candldatex.” The cheers were given with a will und af terwards Mr. Bankston expressed his belief that the combination would make u national ticket which would be successful. Mrs. Bryan Prseent. President Lamar Hill, of the Young Men's Democratic League, Introduced Burton Smith, toastmaster. At the beginning of the addresses Mrs. Bryan and several ladles of the committer, entered the room and were cheered enthusiastically. Burton 8mlth said In part: 'i shall endeavor to talk as little as possible and let others do the talking. Thl* la a Democratic love feast. We are all Democrats, and we hare never hntl a better chance to elect a Demo cratic president. Two of the most popular men In Amerlra derive their popularity from their Democracy. The odore Roosevelt owes much to his fol lowing of good Jeffersonian Democracy In many of Its principles." Governor Terrell'e Address. Governor J. M. Terrell wns then presented. He said: "Georgia feel* a peculiar affection for our distinguished guest. It was that lamented Georgian, Lewis, who first placed him In nomination at the convention of 1891. Four years after ward Georgia led In thnt call from the Democracy of the Union and he was again chosen as our leader. It Is good to know, as we apprnnch the contest of 1908, thnt Democracy Is again united on William Jennings Bryan, the match less leader, as our standard-bearer. It Is good to know that the party shows such a solid front on the three great questions of the period. We should con tinue to light the protective turtff anil In doing so level our guns nt monopoly und trusts. I could paraphrase the words of Madame Roland and say: 'Oh, Labor, how mnny crlfnes have been committed In thy name!' 'it Is a great pleasure to me to wet come our guest to the great stato of Georgia. I doubt If there 1s any other state where he Is so universally the people's choice. Mr. Bryan, I bid you welcome to Georgia and the hrarti* of Georgians.” 8. A. Roddenbury. 8. A. Roddenbury, of Thomasvllle, was next Introduced. Mr. Roddenberry's humorous remarks were greeted by cheers and frequently Interrupted by friendly questions shouted from different parts of the hall. In conclusion he said that south Georgia w'ould yield gracefully to north Georgia, and promised to furnish what ever Bryan majority might be needed. J. Pop* Brown. The Hon. J. Pope Brown was the next speaker. He said: I am hern for the pur|iose of doing honor to our distinguished guest. As a private citizen,' I have come to do honor to the loftiest statesman and purest patriot In America. "In 1898 we were hh a ship without a rudder. Hut a platform waa framed and presented nnd there was but one man who fitted the platform. That was William Jennings Bryan. The next step was to give him a running mate ami there, my friends, was the great est blunder of the age. Sewell wns not a running mate, but he had a ‘bar rel.' But v.-e will not make that mis take again.

He said: "I do not know why Mr. Smith xhould welcome me back Into the party. 1 bcllove that tt lx up to me to welcome him back. There’x a good many of ux fnlka In Georgia anil we have no apolo gies to make. Wo were Democrat! then anil we are Democrats now. Let me tell you what we want. W» want a radical Democratic platform, one with out any hedging and trlmmlngx or tar iff reform. We wunt It In pluin und unmistakable terms. On the transpor tation question, whatever the party does we go with It in 1908, but so far tie wo are concerned we arc ready to stand Ant-footed for government own ership of railroads. It la coming and no power can stop It. There are some of you who wag your heads, but down In your heurte you know It lx coming. "Why should we hceltate? Why should we shift and dodge? The hearts of the people are wedded to It. In this city municipal ownership has already taken poxeeeston of the people. Alrendy we own a great railroad nnd we shall extend It to the eeu. We have govern ment ownership already In Georgia. The people must control their rneanx of transportation. The Democratic party must he the party of progress and not the party of negation. It must be the vnngunrd of the movement onward and upward. That Is my conception of Democracy and It 1* the conception of 100,000 Democrats who have come back with me Into the party. "Not every man who crien 'Democ racy' will do the will of the people. And the people will not be deceived. Woe unto the pnrty which dare to make In 1908 Its etandnrd-bearer ought but a true nnd honest man! 'The great American who Is with us tonight elands without n peer In his unspotted manhood, his unsworvlng loyalty to the right. Jt he Is lifted to the high office In I9(fc all the people, regardless of party, may rest assured thnt no power will ever frighten him- and no power will ever bribe him.' E. K. Overstreet. The Hon. K. K. Overstreet, of Byl vanle. wns the next speaker. •it lx true that a few years ago aom* citlxenx of Georgia left the Democratic party. It pears now that we were upon th* xwltrh while they stayed on the main line." he said. "I have ehuaged my views. I have changed on the sale of the state road and now 1 want It extended to the He paid a tribute to the Hon. Thom as Watson, as on* of the greatest men the country hnd ever produced. Jehn Temple Grave*. Mr. Graves consumed only four of the' country that we nominate Bryan again flVt , minutes allotted to each of the iUTru'nU; tit'e-Vgar 'iSK him one that can run or else one who "wnerahln nronosltlon can get nut of the way and let him run by himself. "And we have a man in the South who can run some"—(cries of ’Hoke Smith!*—"wc have a man In South Carolina—(criea of Tillman)—and we have one In Oenrgla. Give us Bryan and Smith In 1808 and I believe we'll elect them. In behalf of the common tho government ownership proposition would triumph, hut did not regard It ax an Immediate Issue. He said that the age waa radical—made so by the exposures of official graft and corpo rate Iniquity, that an honest radicalism was an absolutely essential antidote to a criminal conservatism, and that. It In this state of the public mind, a leader enjoying the boundless confidence of the people ax Bryan did, would tell the people that government ownership, waa the best solution, the people would fol low him to the polls In loyalty. He said that the clamor of politician* nnd lenders would not destroy an Issue und cited Hoke Smith's great cam paign to prove that tho people fre quently overrode the bosses. Mr. Grave* also said he believed thot the Issues of this national cam paign would not be exclusively ma terial, but would be moved by the larger moral motive, from the high, clear note which Mr. Bryan had In jected Into two great campaigns and elevated the public conscience of right eousness and justice and cleannesa of public life. He said he believed that this note In the campaign would Insure the election of Bryan, because with other Issue* balanced and other quea- tlons made plain, the Democratic par ty could look an awakened nation In the face and say, "The stainless Integ rity of our leader I* the strongest point In our mighty platform." Pleasant A. Stovall. The Hon. P. A. Stovall was the next spenker. He paid a glowing tribute to Mr. Bryan and said: "I nm here In my place as nn un swerving Democrat to say that 1 am convinced that tnrlff reform Is still the paramount Issue of this country. It must be admitted that the tariff sched ule Is the foundation of nearly all the plunder of today. The standpatter be lieves In leilng bad enough alone. He believes In letting graft have It's un disputed sway." Mr. Stovall reviewed the recent ad dresses of Secretary Shaw and severe ly criticised the llepubllcan arguments for tariff protection. W. A. Covington. W. A. Covington, of Colquitt county, was the next speaker. He announced himself as from south Georgia and spoke of the strenuous politics of that section. A humorous anecdote told In Mr. Covington's Inimitable way, carried the house Into roars of laughter. “We vote the Democratic ticket here as a part of our religion,” he contin ued. ''We have done It from the time of Jefferson to the time of Hoke Smith. "The time has ended when people will he governed by sound. It is no longer sufficient for a man caught with the goods nn to call himself a Demo crat. He wouldn't escape that way. / standpatter Is a man with his hands In somebody else'* pocket through gov eminent machinery. A radical Is a man who object*. Pharaoh, who knew not Joseph, was a standpatter. So waa our old friend, George III. "I have that faith In the American people to solve any problem. We can take charge of the business of public welfare and regulate It bo the people won’t be robbed. "The poor housewife, with her horl- son of dishwater, Is of as much Im portance as any billionaire trust. “All that the Georgia Democrat wants Is what Is coming to him. All that we ask Is that the party maintain a government of the people by the people. Mr. Bryan’s address followed. amusements GRAND TONIGHT and SAT—MAT. SAT. THE AL G.
