CANTON, Oct. 13.— Shouting Repub
licans from Sandusky, 0., arrived from
two directions today, the first detach
ment of several carloads coming in
over the Cleveland, Canton & Southern
railroad, and the others coming over
the Interurban line, via Massillon.
Clyde, Fremont, Bellevue and Green
Springs were represented in the party
of 800 or 1,000. Their demonstration
was held in the Tabernacle, where
Thomas Dowey delivered the introduc
tion, to which Mr. McKinley replied.
A special train of six coaches ar
rived this morning after being en route
since 5 o'clock last evening, bringing
miners, manufacturers and other citi
zens of the Lehigh valley, of Pennsyl
vania. The Inclement weather of yes
terday still continued, and the visitors
were taken to the Tabernacle, where
Maj. McKinley went to receive their
greetings. They gave him a most en
thusiastic welcome and applauded his
address to the echo. The visitors were
introduced by ex-Gov. Charles M.
Brumm. Later the visitors called at
the McKinley home. There a box of
magnificent flowers was presented to
Mrs. McKinley.
In replying to the greetings of his
Tisitors today, Maj. McKinley said:
When the condition of the country is such
that every man is thinking about It every
woman Is thinking about it, and wonder-
i g Ji. 0 T ?"* ?" re t0 improve that condition.
1 read today In the North American Review
aii article from the secretary of the navy,
Mr. Herbert, of Alabama, whom I long knew
as a member of the national house of repre
sentatives He has Just visited Europe, and
ne describes the business ronditlon of Ger
ma.ny and England and Prance, as possessing
a degree of activity and prosperity, the like
of which they never enjoyed before. He
doses by saving that the United States was
never so unprosperous as lt is today and
then, he makes the inquiry: Why ls not the
united States and its working people, with
all our national resources, enjoying a share
of the prosperity that is enjoyed by England
and Germany and France? We all know
my fellow citizens, why we are ln the midst
of depression now, and I think we know why
these great nations of the world, our com
petitors, are prosperous. We are doing less
of our own work and they are doing more of
it for us. Everybody admits the condition
that Mr. Herbert describes. I need not stop
to discuss with you the cause. Everybody
knows its source. The question in every
American mind is how to remove the cause
and how to get back the old prosperity which
we had enjoyed for more than a third of a
century.
We must have confidence ln the first place
How can we get confidence? Can we get it
by degrading our money? Can we get lt
by depredating our currency? Can we get
it by threatening the repudiation or partial
repudiation of public and private debf Can
we restore confidence by destroying confi
dence? Can we get it through turmoil and
disquietude and public disorder? Can we re
store confidence by monthly and yearly de
ficiencies in the public treasury? We can
only get back confidence, my countrymen
by letting the whole world know that this is
an honest nation of 70.000.000 of people and
that they propose to pay all their debts in
as good money as the world knows anything
about. And then when we have established
that, which we will do three weeks from to
day, we propose to resume business at home.
If we do not take care of our business, no
body will take care of it for us. And if we

do not use the power of the ballot, which we
possess, to subserve our own best Interests,
then we do not use the ballot to the best
advantage.
We cannot Improve the condition of this
country by decreasing the value of our money
and making believe that 52 cents worth of
silver is a dollar. The only way to Im
prove our condition is to Increase business.
Let us do our own manufacturing. Let us
do our own mining; let us preserve our own
home market— the best market in the world.
Let us dedicate ourselves as patriots to the
American people. I believe in a tariff, and if
we ever needed a tariff in the world, we need
it now. We want to stop borrowing. And we
want to stop having things charged at our
stores. And the only reason we ever had
anything charged up against us at the stores
is because we have no work. Now, what
we want in this country is a restoration of
confidence, of credit, the continuance of an un
questioned dollar, and then we want to adopt
an Industrial policy that will raise enough
money to pay the expenses of this govern
ment every day. And, in doing this, we will
protect American industries and defend Amer
ican labor.
I believe it is the duty of this government
to encourage its own people, and to pass
such laws as will give to them the largest
opportunity to improve their condition, the
highest scale of wages and the greatest en
couragement to their skill and their labor.
We have in this country more free trade
than in any other country of the world, but
It is free trade among ourselves. (Applause.)
With forty-five statas and 70,000,000 people,
we are constantly vielng with each other in
every section of our common country for
the promotion of the highest interests of our
respective populations. We believe in free
trade in the United States in the same sense
that we believe in the equal and reciprocal
obligations which belong to every family.
We are only a great national family. We
trade with each other with absolute freedom
and without restraint and engage in free and
unreeentful rivalry in all the occupations,
employments and industries of our people.
The triumph of one section is the triumph
of the others, all working together tor the
general good.
When we have free trade with other coun
tries it should be in those products which
we cannot produce ourselves, and which
we must have, and in exchange for which
those countries will take the products that
we make and grow and we should put a
duty on those foreign products that com
pete with American products, sufficient not
only to supply enough revenue for the uses
of the government, but sufficient to protect
the American people In their own occupations
I against Uxe products of the cheaper and un
j derpaid .labor of th© world. That seems to
me to be the dictates of ah enlightened
I patriotism, and It is certainly one of the
1 great fundamental doctrines of the Repub
| llcaa party, and why should It not be so,
my fellow citizens? We are one nation; we
j have one constitution, one flag; we have a
common destiny. The other nations of the
world have their separate and independent
political organization for the purpose of
working out for themselves the highest des
tiny possible. They owe no allegiance to this
government; they contribute nothing to its
support, either in war or in peace, and if
they want to come into this country and
compete with our people, we say to them:
"You can do It upon condition that a tariff
shall be put upon your products, and that
tariff will go toward sustaining the govern
ment, and at the same time will be a defense
to our own labor and producers. That ls the
whole doctrine of the tariff. If we ever
needed it, we need it now.
Which would you rather have for your
wages, the money with a purchasing power
equally good in every part of the world, or
limited In its purchasing power to a single
country or a single state? Would the farmer
prefer in payment of his products a money
recognized good and equal the world over, or
a money whose value and purchasing power
is limited to one country? The thing called
| money, and which we give out labor and
j our products for is more valuable to us if
i it is good, not somewhere only, but every-
I where— not in one place, but every place.
It is a very comforting thing to anybody who
has money, much or little, to feel all the
time that its value cannot be affected by
hard times or depreciated in his hands by
panic, but that rests all the while upon solid
and unchangeable value recognized the world
over. Money does net depend upon what
Iwe call it— it depends upon its value. When
: you have earned $100 you want to feel that
! you are worth $100. and that it will not he
diminished in a day or a week or a month
or depreciate while it is in your hands or
when it goes out of your hands. That is
the kind of money we have in this country
now. The b^st money known to the civilized
countries of the world. It is to the interest
of every workingman: it is to the Interest of
every citizen of the country, no matter what
may be his business, to maintain that money
at its present standard.

Mr. Bryan Greeted Along* the Line
by Cheers for McKinley—Wel
comed at Duluth.
DULUTH, Minn., Oct. 13.— The pri
vate car Idler, bearing William Jen
nings Bryan and his party, rolled into
the Northern Paciflc station in this
city shortly after 6 o'clock tonight, and
the candiate made two speeches. The
day's campaigning tour had covered
the route from Minneapolis to Duluth,
and at every station of worthy size
along the line Mr. Bryan spoke to
goodly crowds. Upon his arrival in this
city he was met by a reception com
mittee, and, with Mrs. Bryan, was es
corted to the St. Louis hotel for din
ner. He was then driven to the Ly
ceum theater, where he addressed an
enthusiastic meeting of women. Thence
he proceeded to the car barn, which
was packed to the utmost with the
laboring men of Duluth. Here Mr.
Bryan was presented with the last
utensil necessary for the signing of a
silver bill, when it should reach him,
providing he should be elected, an ele
gant sliver ink bottle, filled with the
fluid necessary for the purpose.
After leaving Aitkin this afternoon
and before arriving at Duluth, brief
stops were made at Carlton and West
Superior, where the candidate made
short addresses to good sized crowds,
using the same line of argument em
ployed in his earlier speeches.
Mr. Bryan and party left Duluth at
midnight over the South Shore road on
a special train, and will go direct to
Michigan. A party of Michigan men
arrived today to escort him through
that state. Those who came are: Dan
iel J. Campau, chairman of the Demo
cratic national campaign committee
and national committeeman from
Michigan; Justin R. Whiting, candi
date for lieutenant governor of Michi
gan; ex-Congressman Timothy E. Tars
ney, of Detroit, and George William
Moore, one of Detroit's leading attor
neys. Chairman Campau claims Michi
gan by 30,000.
His first speech will be at Iron Moun
tain tomorrow at 1:45 p. m. The second
will be at Ishpeming at 6:30 and the
third at Marquette at 7:50. He will
leave Marquette at 10 o'clock for
Mackinaw City where he will arrive
Thursday at 7:30 a. m.
Charles A. Towne was chairman of
both meetings held here tonight, and
at each of them he presented the nomi
nee in a neat little speech. At the Ly
ceum theater Mr. Bryan told the wo
men that a dollar could not be com
pared to a, yard-stick, as claimed by
the supporters of the gold standard,
and in the ten minutes during which
he spoke devoted himself almost en
tirely to the discussion of the yard
stick proposition along tbe same lines
pursued by him many times before. At
the meeting in the car barn Mr. Bryan
said, in part:
It gives me great pleasure to advocate our
cause anywhere, but it gives me special
pleasure to defend that cause among the
people, who, like the people of Minne
sota, have laid aside differences of minor
questions, and joined in a supreme effort to
wrest this government from the hands of
those who would make the people hewers of
wood and drawers of water. It gives me
pleasure to defend that cause in a state
where Democrats, Populists and Silver Re
publicans have united on state, congressional
and electoral tickets. My friends, too often
in the past, those who have labored for a
common purpose have counteracted each
other's efforts because they have gone ln
different organizations and supported dif
ferent candidates, but in this campaign we
are welding together those three divisions
of one great army and nowhere has that weld
ing process been more effectual than in the
state of Minnesota,
1 am glad to come into this state. I am
glad to be where the reform forces have
Joined in the nomination of so grand a
man as their candidate for governor, John
Lind. I am glad to speak in a congressional
district where the reform forces have taken

gallant a champion as Charles A. Towne
My friends, when history has recorded, as I
believe history will record, the success of
this movement in behalf of -bimetallism;
when upon the roll of honor has been In

most instrumental in carrying this cause to

man, your candidate, your congressman, will
find his name high up among those to whom
honor will be paid.
There are crises in the affairs of nations
upon which much depends. There are" hours
in the lives of men, which are the turning
point, and upon the decision there may de
pend not only the future of the man but
often much depends that concerns the' wel
fare of the nation, and. my friends, when
the time came when Mr. Towne' himself

with the party in which he was reared when
that time came he did what every noble man
must do. followed his convictions, no matter

when he did that, when he cast in his lot
with those who believed in the money of the
constitution, when he sacrificed those politi
cal associations which had been dear to him
and started out a champion of the cause of
the people, I believe that he rendered a de
cision which will prove as beneficial to his
countrymen as it proves honorable to him
and I am glad to be in this district to hold
up his hands and to tell you who assemble
here those who vote in this district, that
Charles A. Towne can better afford to go down
to defeat than you can afford to allow his

The money question ls paramount in this
campaign. Other auctions can be settled at
any time. The money question must be set
tled now. Whenever 'a great party does as
the Republican -party has done, proposes to
surrender the right to legislate on a ques
tion of domestic concern. Just so long as that
question is before the people no other ques
tion can approach It in Importance. The Re
publican parry does nbt say that we canaban
don the gold standard when we get UHed of
It The Republican platform admits that the
people are tired of It now, because that plat
form pledges the Republican party to sub
stitute the double standard. The Republican
party, however, aftfer admitting that the
double standard is better than the gold stand
ard, tells you that you must submit to a gold
standard until relief comes from abroad.
Until is a long word. Until may mean for
ever, my friends, and I believe that the man
who wrote that platform and put in the
word "until" never expected the leading na
tions to come to our relief, but expected that
forever we should have the gold standard ln
our midst. •• "
My friends, we have been compelled to
wage a warfare against deception. Our oppo
nents have not come Out ln the open fields.
If they had declared that the gold standard
was desirable their demand for It would
have been ans-wered by the protest of a vast
majority of our people who realize what the
gold standard- has done for them-. They un
derstand that they seek to hold out a delu
sive hope for international, aid while they
fasten the gold standard more firmly upon
the American people. If our present financial
policy is good, it ought to be maintained. If
it Is bad it ought to be abandoned, «and I am
willing to submit to the candid Judgment of
the people of this country whether the ef
fects of that gold standard have been good.
STOP AT STAPLES.
Wr. Bryan Met by a Crowd of Several
Hundred.
Special to the Globe.
, STAPLES, Minn., Oct. 13.— At this
place Mr. Bryan was met today by a
crowd of some five or six hundred peo
ple and was given a fairly warm wel
come. There were none' of the gold
badges which had met him along the
line at previous stops. Mr. Bryan
spoke briefly, among other things say
ing:
The gold papers always call attention to
the absence of the bankers and railroad presi
dents, and say that somehow these interests
are against our causey .My .friends, they over
look the fact that a big man does not vote
any oftener than a little jnan. A big man
only has one vote, aod sometimes he is so
connected with business Interests that he
can't control that. (.Applause.) According
to the constitution and the Declaration of
Independence, all men, are equal. You can't
judge a cause by asking whether a man is
prominent or not. Truth is truth and right
is right, even If thoy dqn't have bankers
and railroad presidents on; their side. (Ap

Mr. Bryan concluded iwith a word of
praise for the gubernatorial candidate,

ing his hearers to use Hhelr ballots in

BRYAN AT BRAINERD.
Hundreds of Sound Money Badges
Greeted Him.
Special to the Globe.
BRAINERD, Minn.. Oct. 13.— The
train bearing William J. Bryan and
party arrived here at 1:50 this after
noon and the free silver candidate for
presidency was escorted to a band
stand near the depot, from which ne
addressed probably 2,000 people. A
i>and was in attendance and sympa
thizers of the cause from all parts of
the county had gathered, but enthu
siasm was lacking and at no time
was the speaker greeted with cheerj
such as would have greeted local
speakers upon a question of so great
importance. Over 1,400 gold badges
bearing the legend "Sound Money"
were distributed this morning and
nearly every one appeared in the au
dience on the lapels of the coats worn
foy Republicans. The silverites endeav
ored to counteract the movement by
getting free coinage badges on to their
adherents, but they were so few aa
not to be noticeable in a crowd. Bryan
apparently made no votes in -Brain
erd, people generally being disappoint
ed with his address.- Charlie Towne
made one last effort from the same
platform to Induce everybody to vote
and work for his election to congress,
but If his reception was indicative of
the number of votes he will get in
this county, Morris' majority will run
up Into the hundreds. The wain left
at 2:25 for Duluth.
In the course of his remarks Mr.
Bryan said: ... 7.. . , ,
"1 do not flnd it4n my heart to criti
cize the man whoi wears the Republi
can badge under compulsion. These are
hard times, and they will be harder
than this Jf the gold standard contin
ues, and I do not, wonder that a man
who has a job does not like to risk
having his job taken away from him
because he insists upon being an
American citizen, but I do rejoice that
the laboring men of this country were
instrumental in .getting an Australian
ballot to protect them In just such a
crisis as we are passing through. With
out it we could hardly hope for victory.
But, my friends, thessecjet ballot, where
a man votes as he 1 wants to, and not
as somebody else wants him to — the
Australian ballot— ls the protection of
the American working men and tyranny
waits outside while he goes in to vote.
(Applause.) Some one has said that a
man wears the Republican badge to
save his employment and votes for
free silver to make his job worth sav
ing." (Applause.)
BRYAN'S DAY BEGUN.
Democratic Platform Briefly Defend
ed nt Anoka.
Special to the Globe.
ANOKA, Minn., Oct. 13.— This morn
ing brought Mr. Bryan to Anoka. A
stand had been erected near the depot,
decorated for the occasion, and there!
surrounded by people on box cars.'
wagons, buildings and telegraph poles,
he made a ten-minute speech. Judge
Rea, of Minneapolis, also spoke.
Mr. Bryan began this morning on his
actual work for this campaign. The
special "Idler" was pulled out of Min
neapolis with the Bryan party aboard
at 8 o'clock and in a short time the
citizens of the small towns on the
Northern Paciflc road between the
Twin Cities and Duluth were listening
to free silver doctrine as proclaimed
by the standard bearer of that princi
ple.
Accompanying Mr. and Mrs. Bryan,
besides the regular party, were Charles
A. Towne, candidate for congress on
the Democratic, populist and Silver
party ticket of the Sixth district, J.
G. Hay ter, candidate fou representative
from the first legislative district; Mrs.
J G. Hayter, T. T. Hudson, John W.
Tomlinson, of Alatfama,, and Judge J.
R. Williams, of Ca^mt, l}l.
Shortly after 9 o'clock the city of
Anoka was reached' and- Mr. Bryan de
fended the Demoeraticl platform as
much as he could ri in a three minute
speech. He told the several hundred
people who gathered about the car
steps that he belle-»jed i-% that platform
from one end of It te the other. He ex
plained that a dear dollar meant hard
times to the producers *of wealth and
that anybody whfe believed in hard
times could vote tlfe Republican ticket.
A similar stop Jsvas made at Elk
River, and at that many of those
gathered about the* depot did not hesi
tate to express their preference for the
Republican nominee. A bunch of Mc-
Kinleyites had assembled at one end
of the depot platform and cheered
long, loud and plenty for the Republi
can nominee. Mr. Bryan spoke from
a stand erected a few feet from the
railroad tracks, and made one of his
usual two-minute speeches. A majori
ty of the crowd cheered him, and
seemed to try to overcome the dem
onstration of their political opponents.
At the little station of Big Lake a
few farmers welcomed the nominee. A
flag of large proportions and of home
make, wltji a shovel handle as the
staff, was waived enthusiastically in
front of Mr. Bryan by an excited and
stalwart farmer as the nominee spoke.
Mr. Bryan said that this country was
large enough to attend to its own
business, and that he did not believe
a foreign financial policy should be
tolerated.
YELLOW BADGES IV EVIDENCE.
They Greeted the Sliver Nominee at
Little Falls.
LITTLE FALLS, Minn., Oct. 13.— Yellow
badges, with the name of the Republican
candidate for the presidency were much in
evidence when Mr. Bryan emerged from
his special car at Little Palls and began to
opeak from a platform a hundred yards
from the railroad track. There was no
shouting for McKinley, but a large propor
tion of the audience that listened to Mr.
Bryan s castigation of gold bugs and yel
low badges had that insignia pinned promi
nently on their coats. Mr. Bryan said in
part:
"Ladies and gentlemen: Sometimes I find
persons who are in the condition of a gen
tleman described out in Nebraska, A lady
down there said she had a brother who was
a gold man without any gold. (Great laugh

ST. CLOUD COLD.
Bryan's Reception There Not Es
pecially Enthusiastic.
ST. CLOUD, Minn., Oct. 13.— Bryan's march
to St. Cloud was by no means as triumphal
as was anticipated and 3,000 people is a lib
eral figure for the attendance at Empire Park
where he spoke for nearly a half hour. The
special was scheduled to arrive here at 9:40
but it was 10:30 before the hacks bearing the
distinguished party arrived at the park.
Bryan alighted and passed along a walk
fenced in by ropes amid cheers, and reaching
the band stand he was introduced by William
P. Reimer, delegate from St. Cloud to the
national convention at Chicago. Bryan imme
diately waded into the silver question, taking
a crack here and there at the democrats who
had bolted his convention. His speech was,
to speak candidly and honestly, a disap
pointment. His delivery had not the magne
tism that had been anticipated and his re
marks in general were disconnected. In closing'
he paid an eloquent tribute to Mr. Towne and
earnestly asked all voters in the audience to
cast a ballot for him.
Mrs. Bryan was among those in the band
stand, as was also Towne. He was called and
made a short address. After he had finished
the party took carriages and were driven
rapidly to the Northern Pacific depot, where
their special was in waiting. The .people did
not enthuse to any great extent, though many
crowded about Bryan's carriage and grasped
his hand. The crowd was orderly.
In his speech at St. Cloud Mr. Bryan took
occasion to give Charles A. Towne a helping
hand and to tell the people that they had
a splendid opportunity to help bimetallism
by voting for Mr. Towne. He said in part:
My friends, the paramount issue of this
campaign Is a business question. Our oppo
nents are always talking about business in
terests. I wish the great mass of the peo
ple would recognize the importance of poll
tics as much aa the financier does. When
ever you bring up any question which con
cerns them they at once tell you that it is a
business question and they cannot allow a
business question to be Interfered with by
politics. If the financiers can make a busi
ness out of politics, then my friends the rest
of the people can afford to make a business
out of politics for once. .
Our opponets always mean übslness, and
the reason why they have succeeded in con
trolling legislation is because they meant
business, while the people out here would be
willing to accept anything that the party
said was all right.
A Voice— "No we don't."
They are not willing to do it now, but they
have done it in the past. For twenty years
the same influences have controlled both
political parties. The financial influences of
New York have written the platforms of
both parties, and in every instance they have
written a platform that leaned toward bimet
allism.
My friends, I think Prince Bismarck about
a year ago gave expression to a very impor
tant sentiment. Talking to the farmers of
Germany he said the farmers must stand to
gether and protect themselves from the drones
of society who produce nothing but laws. I
believe that Bismarck's classification of so
ciety on this question is a proper one. He
puts the drones on one side and the bees
on the other, and, my friends, the drones
have always found fault with the bees.
A Voice— "Hurrah for England."
Mr. Bryan— "There Is the first republican
v ye seen this morning."
Another Voice— You've got to have a magni
fying glass to see him. -
Mr. Bryan— l am glad there are a few of
them left, because you know It always must
be satisfying to a man who stands on the
republican platform as they are getting to
be so few that he will draw a high price wh»n
they come around and want him for a
museum.
My friends, if you believe In free silver if
you believe ln the money of the constitution
if you believe in an independent financial
policy for the American people, you have got
to have not only a president, but a senate
and a houfee of representatives. (Cheers and
cries of "Towne, Towne.") No bill can be
come a law until It Is signed by the president
**-. no bill can be signed by the president un
til It has passed both houses. Then If you
are in earnest I want you to be just as earnest
to send a congressman who is all right as you
are to elect a president. You have a splendid
opportunity in this district. In these latter
days I have found so many bad democrats and
so many good republicans that I have found
that a republican who is right ls a great deal
better than a democrat who Is wrong
o . f a . l L the re Pnblicans who are acting with
us in this campaign, there ls not one who de
serves more credit that that distinguished ad
vocate of bimetallism who is now in congress
and who will be your member again unless
you are false to your own Interests and the
interests of your country.
Why, my friends, I would rather have one
man like Towne. who is a republican with
us than to have sixteen of the democrats
whom we have driven out of the narty by
trying to do right. But instead of giving
sixteen democrats for one republican they
have reversed the ratio.
Bryan Men Not Voting-.

A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About the Sew Discovery
tor Coring; DynpepMia.
The Rev. F. I. Bell, a highly esteemed
minister residing In Weedsport, Cayuga
Co., N. V., in a recent letter writes as
follows: "There has never been any
thing that I have taken that has re
lic-ved the Dyspepsia from which I
have suffered for ten years except the
new remedy called Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. Since taking them I have
had no distress at all after eating and
again after long years can sleep well.
Rev. F. I. Bell, Weedsport, N. V., for
merly Idalia, Colo.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a re
markable remedy, not only because lt
is a certain cure for all forms of Indi
gestion, but because It seems to act
as thoroughly in old chronic cases of
Dyspepsia as well as ln mild attacks
of indigestion or biliousness. A person
has dyspepsia simply because the stom
ach is overworked, all it wants is a
harmless, vegetable remedy to digest
the food and thus give it the much
needed rest.
This is the secret of the success of
this peculiar remedy. No matter how
w^ak or how much disordered the diges
tion may be, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will digest the food whether the stom
ach works or not. New life and energy
is given not only to the stomach, but
to every organ and nerve in the body.
A trial of this splendid medicine will
convince the most skeptical that Dys
pepsia and all stomach troubles can
be cured. The tablets are prepared by
the Stuart Chemical Co., of Marshall,
Mich., but so popular has the remedy
become, that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets can now be obtained at any drug
store -at 50 cents per package. Send for
book on stomach diseases free.
