WILLIAM J. BRYAN ON THE TRUSTS The Democratic Leader's Clos ing Sentiments on Trust Abuses. In his Indianapolis speech on the abuses of the Trusts, William J. Bryan closed with these potent sestiments: The Repubhean leaders have been in the habit of sneering at the Socialists, while blindly indif foreet to the causes that have contributmed to the growth of so cialism. The Democrats recognize thatSocialists are honestly seeking a remedy for the "known abuses" admitted by Secretary Taft. Democrats dient from the remedy proposediby the Socialists, believing that Socialists are mis takes and that the Democratic remedy is better, but it is time for thoughtful people to recognize that individualism can only be retained and defended by rem edial legislation which will remove time abuses which have been allow ed to fasten themselves upon the coaunty. The Democratic party, believing in individ'ialism, ad dresses itself earnestly to these abusee, and instead of ridiculing sad maligning the Socialists, in vites them, as does the Republi cans, to examine the Democratic platform and the remedies pro posed therein. It subrr.mts its plans to the honest citizenship of the country, without regard to section or party. In my notifcation speech I call ed attention to three demands made by our party. It asks, first, that the governmentshall be taken out of the hands of special inter eats. anad restored to the people as a whole; it asks, second, for hiesty in elections and publicity in regard to campaign funds, that the people may freely choose representatives in sympathy with them and pledged to guard their interests; t asks, third, for such a mnodfication of our governamental methods as will make the Senate an elective body, and place the eartrol of the House of Represen sativus is the hands of a majority of its members. A few days ago, a discussing the tariff question. I dwelt upon the fourth demarnd mads by our party, namely, that asstioe be jest, that the revenue law be made for the purpose of an'stl reveue sad not for the elskameet of a few at the ex pereof the tay, and that the _ rIlaw be ttfed by an wmeeseee will awes nearly e -lm the~ d mmod a o brip riaa l that the I gnEessw hea.hed A-wj mllea are espty-l.t 4-u 444 'i'K r 'K- a USE PRICKLY ASH BITTERS FOR INDICESTION,CONSTIPATION, KIDIIEY TROUBLE. SM by Drqglts. P tri s.e per boete. SMITH-GRISHAM DRUG CO., SPECIL ArGNTB. God forbid that we should compel the wage-earuers of the nation to aulddress their petitions to trust magnates. mnd ask for their dlaily bread. Already we have seen how prune the monopoliest is to make employment depend upon the willingness of the employe to prostitute his ballot to the service of hie corporate master. This question should be settled now;we can not afford to bequeath it as a legacy of wee to a succeed ng generation. The conscience of the people is already awakened, and the conscience is the most potent force of which man has knowledge. Where law makes one righteous, consciensc controls an hundred; where one in kept from wrong-doing by fear of pris on doors, a thousand are resrain ed by those invisible walls which conscience rears about us-bar riers which are stronger than walls of granite. It is upon the con science that homan iustitutions rest. and without a stirring of the conscience no great reform is pne aible. To a national conscience already aroused we appeal, with the pledge that a Democratic victory will mean the ranging out of industrial despotism and the ringitng in a new era in which business will he built upon its merits, and in which men will succeed, not in proportion to the coercion they may be able to practice, but in proportion to their industry, their ability and their fidelity.
