Oanton, O., Oct. 24. — A special train oonsistinK of five coaches and a sleeper OfwryinK {teople from Newcastle. Kokomo, Anderson, Richmond and Middletown arrived half an hour before scheduled time and did not receive a very heart' welcome. The Newcastle drum corps, with their duck uniforms trimmed in Igilt, made quite a hit as thej mart lied up the street to the delegation heuti'inarters. The delegation formed and marched to the Mt-Kinley residence. Mr. McKinley soon appeared, being greeted with cheers and applause. \V. H. Elliott, editor of the Newcastle Oonr ier, was the spokesman. He said: “Major McKinley—We have traveled from the west to the east in search of that which by your assistance we hope to find. We arc looking for a man win will become the executive head of all the people, not of classes, but of the entire republic of the United States. We come from that grand state of Indiana, the home of the illustrious Harrison, and of our immortal war governor, Oliver P. Morton. V\ e conic from the state of such great men hearing our congratulation^ to you, Major McKinley. Wi also come to assure you that the bonfires of Republicanism are burning brighlly in the Hoosicr state, and that she will roll up a great majority—the greatest ever given for the Republican candidates in any year.” The presidential nominee responded

in part as follows:

“Nothing but a deep concern for the future of the country would have induced this body of my countryman to travel all night that they might bring assurances of support to the great Republican cause this year, because they believe that enveloped in that cause are the highest and best interests of out common country. I am glad to welcome you to my home and am ghul to have the assurances of your spokesman that the fires of Republicanism is glowing so brightly iu the state of Harrison, that splendid and patriotic statesman, and the home of that other great statesman and war governor, Oliver P. Morton. ■ “Four years ago it was said to the people of this country who were under prosperous and healthy condition, that they were suffering and that free trade would cure all of our supposed ills, and It would he puneooa for all their troubles. We did not Wave many troubles then— very much fewer than we have now Bui we tried the prescription they offered us and voted for free trade. You men about me know bettor the result of that vote by your experiences of the last three ami a half years than I can tell it to you. Free trade did not bring ns more trade. It did not bring us more wages. It did not bring us better prices for our farm products, did it? Did it bring anything but injury and

distress to tlie country?

, “Now they propose, having got us in to this condition, to get us out of it by the free coinage of silver, by coiuingthe silver of the world and opening our mints to the silver of the world. : , And now they say that 52 cents of silver shall be worth $1 to the American people and want you to accept it. And this is the cure they offer for all our present ills. How will free silver increase the demand for labor? How will it increase the demand for wheat? Will it increase the wages of labor in this country, open new markets for the American farmer or new avenues of work for the American laboring man? ||“Why, if you started all the mints of this country working to their fullest capacity and extent, you would not increase the demand for labor, corn or any American product, and you would not inr reuse wages. The cry is that we have not enough money. Now every body knows that is not true. We have pever had such prosperous times as in 1802 and wo have just as much money now as we had then. It is not a lack of money that is at fault; it is the difficulty of putting men to work and creating markets for our products. You cannot make 52 cents a dollar and make a gold

dollar worth 100 cents.

Democratic Candidate Receives an Ova

tlon at All Towdm Visited.

Mattoon, Ills., Oct. 24.—Whatis considered the battleground of the campaign by that portion of the Democracy at present aboard the private car Idler, was entered by the nominee yesterday. Illinois has been looked forward to, and it has been understood that Mr. Bryan would put up the best fight he had about him when the prairie state was reached. The Illinois Democratic politicians met Mr. Bryan at Terre Haute and escorted him through Illinois. Danville was the first stop of the morning, and from a stand near the courthouse Mr. Bryan spoke to an assemblage which numbered up in the thousands. Enthusiasm pre-

vailed at the meeting, and Mr. Bryan | *' ” ar “‘ s ■

quoted Congressman Joe Cannon in support of the free silver doctrine The crowd gave noisy evidence of its appre-

ciation.

Short speeches were made at Paris and Charleston at the latter place the platform was placed on a wagon and when the nominee had mounted it was pulled with willing hands to the place ot speaking. A howling, shouting, cheering crowd welcomed the triple nominee to Decatur where he was down for two speeches and one hour's stop. When the train pulled in the depot a great crowd sur rounded the ears and it was with difficulty that Mr. Bryan reached the conveyance which was to take him to the place of speaking. Here the enterprising comnntee went the Charleston committee one better and instead of having the ordinary vehicle, a motocycle was brought into use and the candidate was conveyed in this horseless carriage to the speakers stand. The crowd was the feature. It was a crush from start to finish, and when the pint form at the courthouse square was reached, it was impossible for the nominee to gain it. While the crowd was not so large as at many places, the crush was the worst experienced for many a day. The other carriages could not get within 100 feet of that occupied by Mr. Bryan and the crowd of shorthand men with the party and for the local papers could not get near enough to rejsirt the speech. |At the second speech it was but a repetition The candidate did not dare to leave the vehicle and the police were powerless. The press correspondents could hear one word in 50. perhaps, and they were lucky if they did that. The return to the depot was a continuous ovation, and it was hard to keep the excited admirers of the nominee from breaking over the pidice and doing bodily harm in their desire to show their affection. The capital city of the state of Illinois welcomed the nomiti' e with a magnificent reception, t rowds that numbered up into the 10,(KK) listened to him and noisily demonstrated their affection for him and their belief iu the principles he advocated. Mr. Bryan made two speeches in Springfield, one at the courthouse and the other iu trout of the cupi-

iol.

There was a stop of five minutes at Petersburg and one of 15 minutes at Havana. At the laft.-r place it transpired that that was the city where Mr. Bryan, in a debate on the money question, after being asked for a silver dollar by his opponent, turned the tables on his adversary by requesting of him a gold dollar, which he did not have. It was further shown that his adversary was no other personage than Hon. William E. Mason. The train arrived at Peoria on time, it being the first time during the week that it was not over three hours late, thanks to the management of W. S. Cantrell.

Danville, Ills., Oct. 24.—By a vote 15 to 8, the Presbyterian synod of Illinois has expelled Rev. Frank B. Vrooman of Chicago. The charges against him were purely questions as to his orthodoxy.

Charles Frederick Crisp was a man of learning, of distinguished presence and of great popularity. He was born in Sheffield, Kng.. Jan. 2'.*, 1845, while his parents were on a trip abroad. He obtained his education in the Georgia public schools and served in the confederate army from the outbreak of the rebellion till be was made a prisoner of war iu 1864.

In 1877 he was appointed judge of the superior court. which position he filled for several years. In 1*82 lie resigned to go to

congress.

As a parliamentarian Crisp i.ad few superiors. When Reed was speaker Crisp was the only Democrat who demonstrated his ability to so confound the czar so as to make him lose his temper on the tloor of the house. Crisp

was never known to “get rattled ”

As a speaker he was a success, although he lacked pugnaciousness enough to keep the house down on its feet when it had tlie bit between its teeth. And, too, he sometimes lost his temper. He was probably better fitted for the position of speaker

than any other Democrat whose abilities have thus far
