Bryan's , Great Speech at Nantasket. The Hope of the Demo ' cratic Party Lies In Teaching Voters the Truth. Republican Leaders Will Not Take Them Into Their Conlidcnce. Boston, July 21. Hon Win. Jennings Bryan arrhed In Boston tills morning at 7 o'clock as the guet of the New Englond Democratic league. Presi dent Hughes and Socictary IIollls, of the league, met the distinguished vis llor at the South Terminal, where a eiowd or considerable size hail gather ed, and cseoited him to Young's ho tel, where Mr. Biyun anil his party tat down to bienkfast at 8 o'clock. Besides the guest of the day, the following gentlemen wore seated: Sen ator Carmaek, K. JI, Shopurd, of Now lYork, President Hughes, Col. Dnnkr water, .1. T. Amce, Lancaster, N. II., Secretary Henry D. IIollls, Mayor Cummtngs, of Stamford, Cunn., Mayor Sullivan, of Hnrtliml, Conn., Mayor Greene, of Woonsoeket, Hon. Wm. S. AIcNnry, chairman Democratic State committee. Mr. Bryan was- the luindpaUtpsukci- nt the. grand Deniociatic rally nt Nan-1 tasket Beach, and was enthusiastically received. In brief ho said: i In view ot the nunioioiis luumony dinners, and the discord they have created, It may not be out of phiie to consider the basis of harmony. Har mony Is but n synonym for older and Is not the lcsult of chance, but a pro duct of Inexorable law. Iluunoiiy lu government is likewise the re.uilt of lived and uuehaugeablo rules. .leitct son states two ot these rules namely, absolute acquiescence In the will of the majority and fieiiuent elections The second aids tho llrst by giving hope of a remedy from pie-sent ills, however grlo ous. '. If ho were living tod.iyhlsobservation .would piobably suggest a thlid rule, namely, tho ascertainment of the will of tho majority by methods so direct, po fair and so honest that the minority cannot doubt that that will has been actually expressed. It Is Impossible to secure harmony between people of opposite sympathies nnd it Is a dlfllcult thing to change a man's sympathies. It requires a polit ical regeneration to make a Democrat bf an aristocrat. Tho Republican par ly of todny Is aristocratic In Its poli cies and fondencles for it Is controlled by a fow In the interest of a fow, but llicie are many Republicans who remain (with their party only because they do not understand tho chango which has taken placo In that party within the last fow yenrs'. With tho exception of tho tariff Question the Republican paity has noi in recent years honestly submitted a single important lssuo to the nrbltrai ment of tho ballot or even to tho Judg ment of tho members of Its own paity. The leaders of thoparty show their lack of vital faith in the doctrine of self government by their unwillingness to take tho people of tho country, or even the voters of their own party Into tlielt confidence, Tho hopo of tho Democratic party lies In bringing this fact to the knowU edge of thoso who have been in tho habit of voting tho Republican ticket. As there nrq many In tho Republican party who have adheied to the party notwithstanding the clintiRO that or ganization has undergone, to there aro some who call themselves Democrats who hnye themselves undergone a change which has alienated them from tho Democratic party or from any par ity woithy of tho name. To attempt to patch up an apparent harmony between thoso who aro not In sympathy with Democratic pin poses Is not only a wasto ot time, but would provo disastrous. Tho Donioeratlc party must have n controlling purpose. Unchanged by Victory or defeat, It must stand for that purpose at all times nnd ovciy where, unmoved by threats of disas ter and uninfluenced by promise of temporary gain. No ono will uust an nnstable man or one so without prjji (plo that h)s position upon any moral juestlon cannot be guessed In art rnnce. Neither will tho peoplo trust I party that Is willing tp write into ita platform today anything that prom- JL Ises to catch ft fow votes or strike out of its platform tomorrow anything that will alienate a few -votes. v-y . .,, Mr. Bryan then reviewed the cam paigns of '02, '04, '00 and 1000, going into the issues Involved In those bat tles for political supremacy. Con tinuing, he said: And what Is tho situation today? Since the election of 1000, imperialism Is more openly avowed nnd imperial istic methods mote boldly entered up on because the Administration can point to that election as an apparent endorsement, although tho unity lead' ers at that tlmo vehemently denied Imperialistic intent. Since the eloc tion ot 1000 the trusts liuvo giown and flourished under flic Republican administration as might have been expected. Almost "two years havo elapsed since the last Presidential election, and no legislative attempt has been made to iuterfeio with them. Since the election tho financiers aro seeking to carry their advantage a little farther and aro planning an as set currency, a system of branch banks and tho ledomptlon of tho sliver dol lar. And nil tho while nn exorbitant tariff Is working Injustice to tho con sumers nnd enabling tho beneficiaries of protection to soil nt homo nt a high price and compete In foielgn mnikom ut n lower price. How enn thooppononts of nrlstoc racy and plutociaoy bo united for a successful attack upon entrenched pilvlleges? Not by making peace with the enemy; not by Imitating their works, their methods or their phraseol ogy, but by an honest, straightforward appeal to tho Amerjean peoplo upon a platform that can bo understood and with nn oiganizaflon that can bo trusted. Upon this basis wo cannot only linrmonlzo all who aro Democratic in sentiment; nnd sympathy, but wo can draw to our paity those of the opiKisitlon who cherish Democratic ideals, but Have been misled by Repub. llcan arguments.

In the decision Judge Jackson se verely scored the defendants and said It is the right of,eYorycItlzen to labor for wages he Is' sntisihnl with and lib must be protected the same as free speech.

He said: "Such utterances of 'Mother' Jones In her public address, at or near Pln nlcklnnlck mines on the 20th day of June, 1002, should not emanate from any citizen of this country, who be lieves In Its Institutions. Such utter ances nie the outgrowth of the senti ments of those who believe In com munism and anarchy.
