{Wonderful voice of William J. Bryan
•was in bad condition for oratory Friday I
morning at Tomnviiml.i, 12 miles from
IBuffalo, where lie had the iirst oppor
tunity of using it. lie spoke with an
effort and showed plainlj' the effect on
his vocal organs of the last few days
pf long speeches.
Tonawanda, the scene of (lie great
jstrike three years ago, was reached just
before nine o'clock. In the crowd of
400 persons gathered at the regular
stopping place for the electric cars,
Trorkingmen predominated. Cheers
were heartily given as Mr. Bryan ap
peared on the rear platform, lie made
ft short address, speaking with con
siderable effort to make himself heard.
At the town of Niagara Falls, reached
shortly after ten o'clock, there was no
demonstration. A reception commit
tee met Mr. Bryan and the candidate
and bis party were taken in another
trolley oar to view the whirlpool rapids
end the other sights below the big
cataract. After viewing the big falls,
Mr. Bryan, at 11:18, left for Medina by
jthe Central road.
A Pretty Incident.
Knowlesville, N. V., Aug. 29.—Just
[before the train left Niagara Falls, Mrs.
iryan was handed an immense bunch
if chrysanthemums. On the way to
itbe next station, Medina, the chrys
anthemums, one by one, were present
ed by Mrs. Bryan to everyone within
jher reach, and when the train held up
At Medina the lady stood with her hus
band on the rear platform and there
Resumed the work of distribution among
ia large crowd of persons who had as
sembled near the tracks. Many ladies
were in the crowd and strove with tho
,reet for the coveted flowers. Mr. Bryan
'excuscd himself from speaking. He
paid he had to save his voice for Knowles
ville. Arriving at Knowlesville at 1:10
:p. m., Mr. Bryan was received by a large
{gathering. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan took
Keats in a carriage drawn by four sil
iVer-gray horses and were wheeled away
|to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene
[Woodford, where they were entertained
]Bt lunch.
I Talks to Farmers.
Mr. Bryan then proceeded to Slaw
iBOn's grove, where the Farmer's alliance
jpienic of Orleans county was in prog
ress. Here Sir. Bryan addressed a
largo audience, and was afterwards
given an informal reception at the home
of Mrs. Saxton, on the Slawson estate.
In his address to the farmers Mr. Bryan
read an extract from Mr. Carlisle's
speech of 1878, and commenting on it,
said
"John G. Carlisle divided society into two
classes. On the one side he put he idle hold
ers of Idle capital on the other he put the
Struggling masses, who produce the wealth
and pay the taxes of the country. If that
division existed then it eslsts to-day. More
than that, John Q. Carlisle Bald that a pub
Uo officer sworn to do his duty would he
eontroled In his official conduct by his
sympathies, and if his sympathies were
withfthe Idle holders of Idle capital, he
would coin as little money as possible,
wwhereas, If his sympathies were with
the struggling masses, he would coin aa
muoh as the law would permit.
"My friends, the Issue to-day Is between
the Idle holdres of Idle money and the
Struggling masses who produce the wealth
and pay the taxes of the country. And
When this Is understood, when men And out
about the money
question,
y0u will And
out if there Is a man In your community
whose interests, whose sympathies are
With the Idle holders of Idle money, he will
be In favor of a gold standard and not dar
ing to Bay so. he will talk about 'honest
money,' and a 'sound dollar.' But If
his
sympathies are with those who produce
the nation's wealth, he will be for the gold
and silver coinage of the constitution.
"They tell us that these prominent finan
ciers are going to leave the democratic
party because Jt declares for the restora
tion of sliver. We shall not go Into court
to secure an order to prevent their goging.
[The democratic party has been weighed
jdown by those millstones Ions* enough.
!l am glad to be rid of those who want to
luse the party organization for private
|Sain and their oountry for public plunder.
"Let me read a little from Mr. Carlisle's
ispeech." A voice: "Why do you read
{from Carlisle's speech?"
Mr. Bryan—"Why? Because no man has
presented a more forcible argument in
favor of bimetallism than Mr. Carlisle
has."
Again Quoting Mr. Carlisle, Mr. Bryan
jsald: "He understood the laws of finance.
He understood what would be the effect
tot adding this money to the circulation,
[and my friends, if he stated tho truth, then
|that truth has not changed since then, nor
can It be changed, though everyone who
spoke for It has turned his back upon it
[Applause]. Truth lives. It Is the one
thnlgg that will not die. I quote these words
to you to show that by the Increase of the
rvolume of money we expect to stop the con
stant appreciation of money and the con
Stan t' depreoiationofproperty.''

JE- J. THOMAS, CO. Recorder.
In the nomination of Frank D. Bay
less, the Ossian convention gave the
people of the Fourth congressional
district a candidate worthy of sup
port by all classes. Having been a
soldier in the war of the rebellion from
its breaking out till the last in arms
against the authority of the United
States had laid down their arms, that
elass can depend upon his friendship
in behalf of every lionest claim of the
soldier to aid, relief, or support from
government. His great big sympa
thetic heart for suffering humanity
would prompt him to this, which ad
ded to his having been one of the
boys in blue, and from personal ex
perience knowing their trials, suffer
ing and privations in the field, and
the bodily ills naturally resulting
therefrom is enough to insure his in
terest in support of eyery worthy
claim of the soldier.
The farmers, who as the direct re
sult of an inadequate supply of mon
ey for use in the business channels of
the country, are selling their pro
ducts at barely cost of production,
leaving little or nothing for their la
bor. and paying no interest upon the
capital invested in farm property, or
implements of agricultnre in use, if
they desire better prices and some
profit, from their industry, cannot
afford to vote against him. The sup
ply and demand for money are fac
tors governing its purchasing power
as potent as supply and demand in
other articles of as universal demand
as money. This makes him an advo
cate of an increased supply of money
for the people, money coming to
tliem direct from their government
by the coinage of silver upon the
same terms given to gold, and giving
it the same legal tender given to gold.
The wage earner will be benefitted
thereby as it will enable tliein to ob
tain steady employment at living
wages and for ready pay. It will of
course make au advance in the price
of what they consume, but without
employment they are unable to sup
ply all the needs of their families at
the present gold standard prices. Ev
ery wage-earner knows that fully one
half his time passes with but partial
employment and low wages therefor.
The increased demand for help that
comes from more money will give
him an increase in wages, which added
to steady employment will be a sub
stantial benefit.
The merchant finds his goods re
maining upon his shelves because the
low price of the farmers products,
and the prices he can afford to pay
his farm help, does not enable either
class to buy, pay for and use the
goods he offers for sale, and his
profits are sacrificed in the effort to
secure means from his goods to meet
his payments. More debt-paying
money is likewise his need and the
means through which to attain that
end, is through the election of men
who favor such measures as will se
cure money to the people without Its
coming through syndicates from bond
sales.
