The March to'the Academy?The Mag nificient Reception Tendered (the Speaker?Accouut of the Speech. Last night was a red-letter event in the ! history" of Koanokc Democracy. The' whole city was thoroughly alive to the occlusion, ami people Hooded to the ecu- ! tral portion of the city last night by tin: ? thousands. ! The streets in the vicinit y of the'Terry building and the Junior Hose Company; clear out Jefferson street, to the railroad, ! and uii Salem avenue to the [Academy of Music, were packed with people, many of ? them ladies, who were waving handker chiefs and their sweet shrill'voices raised to cheer the enthusiastic troopers in line for Bryan and,Democracy. 1 ly 7 o'clock thousands of people had gathered in the vicinity of the Terry building, although the hour for moving had been'set at 8 o'clock. At7:20 tho Koanokc Machine Works drum corps arrived at the place of ren? dezvous, followed by tin- Fourth ward Club The Machine Works Hand next, arrived nnd started up ?"Dixie," amidst the wildest enthusiasm. The various ward clubs koou arrived in bodies, inarching with waving Japa? nese lanterns The Fifth ward club was preceded by the Park Street Hand. The Bryan Hick? ory ('lub was out. in force, although many of U s members had joined in to swell the ward clubs. T. esc young men were well supplied with lanterns, and kept up a continual yell,which was instrumental in arousing much enthusiasm. The yell was as follows: ''Who are we:- Who are wof We're for Bryan,don't you see." The psrnde was formed with the Roan oke Machine Works Band in the lead. 'I he First ward fell in next to the band, carrying transparencies with the follow? ing inscriptions: ''Are we going to let Wall Street dictate onr financial policy? Not much" of it, you bet.'' "Govern? ment by injunction means [imprisonment without, trial by jury. We don't want it." "Vote for Bryan, theworkiugman's friend.1' "Down,, with the McKinley monopolies.'' The Second ward club "followed next, with banners bearing such inscriptions as "Hanna's money won't buy us," ''All's not gold thai glitters," ."There is a sil? ver lining to the clouds." The Third ward club was the next i:t order, followed by the Fourth. The Park Street Band then fell in line, and were followed by the Fifth ward dub, with the Bryan Hickory Club next, with t heir continually el ling and cheering. The Vinton club, with about seventy-live men in line, brought up the rear. In the vicinity of the Terry building and at the street crossings much ted light powder was burned, and on Jefferson street it east a weird shade and pallor over the McKinley and Ilobart banner swung over Jefferson street. The following are more of the trans? parency inscriptions, carried by the var? ious clubs: ??Are our dollars worth ?:i cents? Nit," "Who isRadford? I don't know,"' ?? We'll take the lead, let other nations follow,'" "Bryan and prosperity, McKinley and scarce money," "Li Hung Chang, Ainoy China, .lohn .Hampton H?ge," "Bryan for the people, [McKinley for Hanna, will Hannn win:-' Nit," "What is the matter Z.with the Chicago platform and income tax? Nothing, says the people." One banner had a figurative motto, which read as follows: "No cross of gold, no crown of thorns." Some time before the procession came in sight, of the Academy of Music a seething, pushing ami bustling crowd of humanity elbowed their way into the en? trance, and by the time they reached the doors, had it not been that seats were provided for them, only a limited number could have been comfortably seated, at all available sp:ur:e was taken up by the very large crowd of intelligent people who were anixious to hear the gifted orator. With no exceptions, last night's audi? ence was the mcst refined that has ever greeted any spenkei in this city during this or any other campaign. Old men, young t ien, middle aged men, and quite a number of the fair sex graced the occa? sion i\-itrii their presence, while the young iik-:i were greatly in evidence, and a more enthusiastic crowd could hardly be seen. While they were pouring into the build? ing the Machine Works Band played a lively air. W. A. Glasgow introduced James Liud soy Gordon as a Virginian from New York, and when that gentleman stepped ' to the t'.ootlights he was greeted by an ap? plause that could have been heard foi I squares, and which lasted nearly three ' niinutes, while men waived hats and la , dies threw their handkerchiefs to the ; breeze. Never before did a Koanokc I audience give an orator [a more rousing reception, and nexer before did an audi? ence listen more intensely to an oration tU;it thrilled their very being. Mr. Gor dau is a young mau, but his spcechjof last night at once stampe.il him as one [of tlur foremost orators of this country?indeed I his marvellous flow of language, his mag? nificent elocution and his ingenious ar? rangement of the fabric that formed his speech were so magical that his audience wiis held spell-bound, <uul the two hours seemed not one-fourth so long. Mr. Gordon said that nowhere outside of New,York has he-seen more enthusi? asm than was shown here by the Central Democratic Club. He at once paid his respects to the hard timer: and the over prod net ion theories of the Republican party. He said (hat the present.condition of affairs was due more to one cause than ail ot hers combined, and that w/is the striking from the Statute books of silver as the standard money of this world The speaker then went into the real causes of the demonetization of silver by NOKE NQKE, VA., SUN?i reoltiug the history of tha country along j | tliul line. Whou the war ended, he said i ] that the United States Government had j contracted as a war debt nearly 3,000 million dollars, the payment of which falls upon the people of the desolated Sout h as well as the victorious North; Before the sounds of the guns at Fort Sumpter had died away every New York bank had suspended payment of silver, nnd gold and silver had gone to a pre? mium of from -10 per cent, to 70 per cent, over greenbacks. Ho then gave a history oi the monetary system, and declared that. John Sherman and others had de? monetized silver by stealth like a thief in the night, and that the real purport of tiie act was unknown to anybody until after its baleful effect was felt. "When be said the 3rd of November would see the election of Win. Jennings Bryan, a curtain arose revealing a picture of Bryan surrounded by Hans and bunt? ing, and streams of stars and stripes there was thuudering applause, which lasted for nearly two minutes. lie told of the Bland-Allison bill, and how it. had been passed over the opposi? tion of the bondholders and the veto of President Hayes, how it resinned specie | payment, and then of how Speaker Heed prevented the rouionotizatlou bill from I being put ln-fore a Deinooratic House that was ready to pass it, and how the j Sherman bill was adopted in its stead. | I In order to rid themselves of the t rouble- I ! some Sherman law, the bankers set about j to have it repealed and issued the follow - j ing circular, which ho read, and which ! ; was sent to all the bankers in the conn- ! j try. i | i "Dear Sir: The interest of national ? bankers require Immediate (inaucial leg? islation by Congress. Silver certificates and Treasury notes musl 1"' retired, and , national bank notes upon a gold basis be ' : made the only money. This will require tin- authorization ?l' from $500,000,000 . i to $1,000,000,000 of new bonds as a basis I of circulation. You will at once retire one-third of nil your circulation and call I in one-half of your loans. Me careful to : make a money stringency felt among your ' patrons, especially among influential ; business men. Advocate an extra session I of Congress to repeal I lie purchasing clause of the Sherman law and act with , the other banks of your city in securing I a large petition to Congress for the un , conditional repeal, per" accompany ing. j Use personal Influence with Congressmen I and personally let your wishes be known j to your Senator. The future life of na j tional banks as safe and fixed invest ! ments depends upon immediate action, as there is an increasing sentiment in fa j vor of Government legal tender notes and 1 silver coinage." I lie then told of the repeal of the above mentioned lnw and spoke as follows re? garding the action of Senator Daniel in I the matter: No truer or braver advocate I of the people's rights, or the great cause , of the toilers who seek emancipation from . thejjslavcry of plutocratic, power has ever j battled upon Virginia soil. Boldly has he j stood for her people's freedom, as he bad i shed his blood upon her battle-fields, and long may he live to protect those rights. 1 Hut when lie shall have passed beyond t hat. river whose waters have mirrored no returning form, the hills of Virginia have ivj granite too enduring, and no marble too spotless to commemorate the loyalty of Ids devotion and tin- splendor j of his advocacy of all that pertained to the advancement of his people and tin glory of Virginia. ! If spoke of Cleveland and said the only thing Democratic he had done in four years wns to recall John Hampton I logo I from China. He discussed Bourke Cock ; ran's position and said McKinley rode with Sherman down the valley of Virgllli I nm! humed the houses from over tin heads of the women and chil lien of Vir . giniaus. Ib- defended the income tax law and scored Cleveland for sending Federal troops to Illinois when the governor of that State had assured him that he could suppress the riot with State troops, and -aid that no real damage was done until tin- people found that Federal troops were . among them.

But Oppose Everything. Fargo, N. D., Oct. 10.?Mr. Bryan ar? rived in this city early this morning. There wjs a hitch in the railroad arrange? ments at Aberdeen and Mr. Bryan's ear was delayed in that city several hours. A crowd of early rising enthusiasts there routed him out of bed at S a. m. Mr. Bryan made a short speech and then went to bed and slept until S o'clock,when ' Fargo was reached. Mr. Bryan had breakfast here with Senator Roach and j the reception committee at the Hotel Metropole. At 10:10 he went to the base- | ball park and delivered a speech of half I an hour. At the baseball grounds a large crowd had obtained admission to the enclosure. On the platform, placed in a conspicuous place, was the somewhat hlstoric.eagle belonging to the more historic Bud Reeves, who once made a canvass lor Con? gress, mounted Oll a white horse, wrapped in the American Hag ami with a stuffed eagle petehed on his shoulder. Mr. Bryan plunged at once into the financial questions of the campaign, re? peating ia large part*his arguments made i in former platform speeches, and adding: j ??I want you to remember that we who advocate free coinage at Hi to late the only people who have a financial system ? that they arc willing to put, before the American people. Our opponents propose nothing: thep opposeeverythluv. (Ap i plause.) We want free coinage of silver as we have of gold, unlimited coinage of silver as we have of gold, coinage at the ' ratio which now exists between our gold ; and silver coinage and that of any for? eign nation. (Applause.) What do our j opponents say:- Do they elaborate a sys I teill? Not at all. They are simply op? posed to our plans. Do they know what is good for the American people:' If so, why don't, they tell us? Well [you say that their refusal to speak of and elabo? rate a plan is due to ignorance? Do you say that men who do not know what ought to he done, ought to lead in the doing of that which they do not know anything about:' (Applause.) if, on the] other hand, you say that they know but! won't tell, 1 tell you, my friends, that . you ought to have no confidence in those i who have no confidence in you. (Applause and three cheers for Bryan.) We not only know what we want, but. we know [why wo -vanl.il, aud we know how we are go i lug to get it. We want, bimetallism and ; when we say bimetallism we tell you what WO mean by bimetallism. "Why do WO want it:- Because, my friends, there is not enough of gold to fur? nish the standard money upon which our money is based. (Applause.) Our opponents say they have a sound finan? cial policy. I deny that you can build a sound financial policy?I deny that you : can build a sound llnauqilll policy upon a gold basis. Ask them where the gold is. They tell you how much there is in the , Federal Treasury, how much in the na? tional bank vaults. Then they guess at the amount in other banks ami they leave about half of it unaccounted for. (Ap? plause.) Ask them bow much gold there is in the country and they say about $000,000,000. Ask them to point it out and they may be able to point out $300, 000,000. Ask them where the rest is ami they tell you that is what is called the invisible supply of gold in the count ry. . (Great applause and cheers.) Do von be j lteve you can erect a substantial structure j on an invisible base:' (Applause.) You I cannot do it, my friends, because it is i invisible. Well, in sight, we have some? thing like half ol the estimated gold in i the country,'but, my'friends, the gold in sight is either in the Treasury or in the national bank vaults or in the Slate bank vaults. Suppose you need some of it to . pay a gold contract, how can you get It? On such terms as the holders are willing j to charge. (Applause.) The gold stand? ard means in its filial analysis that gold ! will only he legal tender money in this country because, my friends, you cannot have two kinds of money in this country und have one kind good enough for the bondholder aud the other kind good enough for the rest of the people. (Ap? plause I Our silver must be good enough to pay all our ih-btsAvith it. or it will soon . cease to be good enough to pay any debts , with (Applause.) The gold standard, t carried to its logical conclusion, means ] that all legal tender money except gold b, is to bo abandoned and that whenever you have a debt to pay you must go around . und lind gold, no matter how hard it is j for you to Hud it. (Applause / More than that, the financial policy of the Republi I can party not only contemplates gold as the only legal t'-nder, but it contemplates bank notes as the only (taper money. You put the control of [your legal tender in the hands of a few financiers and your paper money in the hands of an organi? zation of bank ? and then, my friends, nil the people will have to do is to bend their backs a little lower to bear the additional burdens which will be placed upon them." (Great appause.) At Breckinridge, Mr. Bryan spoke from the rear patform of his car to a gocd si/.ed crowd. He was introduced by F. ('. Gibbs, as the next President of theUnited States, and said: '?Whether my friend here will prove his right to be known as a prophet will de? pend somewhat on the result of the elec Everybody's Favorite - -The Great Schubert Pianos Pays to g?t a Rood one while yen arc at it.

(A voice: "Can't you give us a word about the plank in your plat form that condemns the Presi? dent for enforcing the law.") Mr. Bryan?"Our platform does not complain of any enforcement of the law, and no man i-afraid of my election be? cause he is afraid I will not enforce the law. What they are afraid of is that I will enforce the law against the big vio? lators of the law." (Great applause and cheering.) PISTOLS AT HIS HEAD. lien. ,1. S.
