farmer's wife from her bountiful store of pood things so abundant in quantity and variety at this season of ihe yeur. The city man who looks upon spring chicken as one of the luxuries of life to be had only on certain occasions would have looked upon this spread with the greatest envy. Crisp and brown fried chicken, fried by the careful housewife early thi morning and packed away in huge baskets, was brought out in a quantity that seemed to be sufficient to feed any army of hungry men, but the army of hurray people who had been without focd sin dawn, or soon after, did not require much assistance to pick the toothsome meat from the bones and toss the remnants to some stray dogs who had scented the dinner in waiting and were in the park, anxious for what they knew would come to them after a time. Then there were immense cakes and home-made pies, made, of fruit that had only the day before been picked from the trees of the orchard. To tc4 off the picnic dinner, there were watermelons and such watermelons: The neighborhood of Seymour is famous for this product, and the fanners have been saving their best for several days for the occasion. Within the park were a number of large farm wagons which had been loaded to the top with melons, but before the speaking of the afternoon their stock had almost vanished, and chunks of green and red Bhowed its fate. The characteristic feature of Republican gatherings wafl not wanting in this one. The men did not come to town to get drunk and have a "glorious old time," but they came to learn something and know how to combat the arguments of their neighbors who lean toward free silver. To do this successfully they brought their wives and daughters and the babies with them, and there were none more aS tentive to the speaking than these same wives and daughters. After dinner this immense picnic party in the park gathered In groups and talked over old times. SENATOR THURSTON'S ARRIVAL. Senator J. M. Thurston arrived a little before noon on the B. & O. train from Cincinnati, and was met at the depot by a large crowd of people who were anxious to see the speaker of whom they had heard bo much. It was a warm welcome that was given to him and his wife when they stepped from the train. Among the first to shake his hand and extend to him the hospitality of the twh was Col. A., J. D. Thurston, a lifelong Democrat and a distant relative of the Senator. Colonel Thurston says he cannot follow his party when it jumps from the principles ic has fought for so long into the camp of Anarchists and repudiators, and he will not support the ticket named at Chicago. He fcuys a goou stable money is of more value to him and to his friends than the success of the other principles for which the old Democracy has lought the Republican party, and th-i time has come when he must renounce his party, at least until it once more becomes the champion of Justice and right, and cuts loose from anarchy. As soon as Senator Thurston was seen on the platform of the sleeping car a mighty cheer arose for the man who made such a gallant race against the Popocratlc nominee two years ago for the Senate and succeeded in defeating him !n every county In Bryan's own district, Bryan did not secure the election of a single member of the. Legislature in his own congressional district, so much opposed tp him are the people of the State. With Senator Thurston and his wife in a carriage the Marion Ciub. of Indianapolis, headed by the When Band, fell ir.to hne and acted escort to the New Lmn Houve, marching around two blociC3 ta -et there. At the hotel there was a large enwd gathered to greet and give three cheers tor tne Nebraskan. Tin: BIG PARADE. The exerctses of the morning were merely preliminary to what was to come in the afternoon, when the big speaking was to occur, preceded by a parade. At the sound of a bugle, at 1 o'clock, the organized marchers began to form on Walnut street. The place of honor was given to the Marlon Club, of Indianapolis, and the When Band. This organization formed on Walnut street, south of Second street, and occupied a full block in marching order. Other organizations fell in behind, choosing their own places, and at 1:) the parade moved toward the park. The parade was about a mile In length, and contained more than 2,000 people. There were many striking banners displayed. One, carried by a Seymour organization, was especially apt. It read: "In lX'J'Z they said, "No more tt)-cent wheat' we havi none." Another one dis

mayed a picture of the original Boy Ora-' or of the I' aue (Piat.i it was a tninaman in native costume, with Ms braided pig-tail hanging over his shoulder "Four years ago it was 'Grower and clover,' now It is "Bryan and brine' (in Salt river)," was displayed on a banner of one of the visiting delegations. Another read: "Free trade and free silver; we want them both in China." Eitrht bands and as many drum corps made music and kept the time for the marchers. One of the novelties of the dceasion was the Scottsburg Band. It was composed of ten pieces. The two tenor horns were played by very pretty young ladies, and the snare drum was in the hands of a little girl about ten years of age, who was an artist in its use. Then there was a ladies' drum corps in a large platform wagon, covered with flags and bunting and large pictures of McKinJey and Hobart. The drums were so concealed that none knew there was a drum corps in the large wagon until the noise was heard, and then many were at a loss to locate the sound. x With nags flying the parade moved soutti on Walnut street to Laurel, east to Chestnu, north to Second, east to Ewlng, north to .Sixth and east to the City Park. The parade was in charge of Dr. L. 3.1. Mains, sr.. grand marshal, and 10. W. Shepard and John T. Rosson, assistants. They were assisted by the reception committee, composed of O. II. Montgomery, Mayor J. Balsley. J. H. Andrews. M. S. Biish. Ed Swain, Dr. M. F. Gerrish. I. D. Brewer, C. B. Cole. Judge W. K. Marshall, John Oesting, Dr. G. G. Graessle, Senator Louis Schenck. Frank Woodmansee, Edward A. Remy. T. J. Stanfield. C. C. Sappington. John Seaman, sr.. W. H. Burkley, Henry J. Smith, Charley Ewing, Peter L. Carter, J. A. Goodale,- W. G. Reynolds, James Hamer and John A. Ross. On the arrival of the parade at the park It was found that a much larger crowd .had already assembled than that brought by the parade. There was not a vacant seat in front of the speakers' stand and few at the sides. These few were rapidly filled, and then those who arrived later had to stand, but they willingly did this to hear the speech of Senator Thurston. A glee club, composed of members of the Marion Club, sang a song which had created much amusement down town. The words were written by Harry Tutewilcr, and the chorus is to the music of the famous "couchee, couchee" song. It took well with the people. SENATOR THURSTON APPEARS. Hon. O. H. Montgomery, of this city, then Introduced' Senator Thurston. He used few words to do so, saying he was aware of the fact that the people had assembled to hear Senator Thurston and not to hear him. Senator Thurston proved to be as popular with a Seymour crowd as he has been elsewhere. He. did not attempt any flowery oratory, saying he would leave that for the Boy Orator, but wMat he said was simple, straightforward argument on the money question, made emphatic with many illustrations that were so plain as to be thoroughly understood and appreciated. He ,was very hoarse, and excused that by say ing that ne nan spoKen so mucn that his voice was as rough and ragged as the Chicago platform. While he was talking the thermometer stood above 90. and the perspiration poured off him in great drops. He began with a standing collar, but when he stopped the collar was of a different variety. It was very hot, but the crowd of about six thousand people stood and lounged about for two hours, .while Senator Thurston told them why they should favor sound currency. "I want the dollar of my country the dollar I receive for my work and the dollar you receive for your work to go around the world as the flag of our country goes around the world honored and respected." This expression brought forth a cheer that was deafening and every liag In the audience, and they were many, was waved hish in the air. "And we will not end another man to the White House who will pull it down, either," yelled a sturdy Irishman as he waved his flag over his head. "Now, I have heard a good deal about the 'crime of 1S73..' " said the speaker. "What was that crime? You are told that It was, the demonetization of silver. How many of you ever saw a silver dollar with a date prior to 1S7S? I'll warrant there are very few of the younger peopla here who ever saw one, and. further, I'll venture to say that not one of you can find one now unless It be from some old relic chest or the dollar on which your grandmother cut her teeth. You -have ail seen and owned the silver dollars made since 1S7S. Now. I would like to ask you if you think the act of 1S73 was a crime or if It has demonetized silver. Stop and think study these things." The crowd readily saw the point, and as the statement was one that few, if any of them, had ever heard mad in that way before, it was greeted with a cheer that showed the appreciation of it. "There aje many old men and women bere," ho gold "who rtmembcr, as I do.

the times not long ago when the man who had paper money did not know, when he went to. bed at night, what his money would be worth the next morning, and had to consult a, banker or read the market quotations In the morning paper before ht would know. Did any or you make any money during those times on account of the cheapness of money or on account of it3 fluctuations? No. it was the money broker the man who had capital and made a business of buying and selling money Just as you buy and sell sheep and merchandise. That would be the condition if the money of this country should become again depreciated and depend upon the dally market quotations for its value. It would not be any of you, but it would be the money broker, who would make money by the fluctuations." A POSER FOR BRYAN'. Taking up two Mexican dollars and holding them aloft, the speaker said: "Here are two Mexican dollars I bought for a little more than a dollar two years ago in Omaha during my canvass for the Senate against Mr. Bryan, when we met in joint debate. I held them up. to Mr. Bryan at that time and said to hirri that if he would answer one question for me I would concede that he is on the right track. 'If one farmer sells wheat and receives an American dollar for it.and another farmersellsthe samp amount of wheat and receives these two Mexican dollars for it, is one any better off than the other?' I asked, 'presuming for the sake of the question that these two Mexican dollars are worth one American dollar, istead of a few cents more.' Mr. Bryan did not attempt to answer that question then, and he has never done so since. Until he can answer that question and show that the two Mexican dollars are better than the other one, his freesilver idea is worthless." Mr. Thurston knocked the wind out of one idea that is held by many free-silver men very effectually. He said that many people had a verv faint idea of what free coinage means. Some think it means that the government will erect a sort of threshing machine and into one end the mine owners will dump the silver. Coined dollars will roll out of the other end and the people will take turn about holding their open pockets under the silver stream until they get all they want. It is trtue, he said, that the bullion owner would dump hifi silver into the forward end of the machine, but there will be strong iron boxes at the other into which the dollars will fall, and not a man will get one excerpt he exchange his labor or property for it, and then it will not be worth a dollar, but he will have to take it. "Why," continued the speaker, "those bullion owners might get enough silver dollars in this way to build a pyramid to the skies, but you could not get one of them unless you have some labor or" product of labor which you can take to them and have coined into a dollar: that Is the only way you can get one." Senator Thurston likened the free sliver craze among the people to measles. "It is prevalent to a certain extent in all sections of the country." he said, "at different times; but like the measles, it comes suddenly and runs its course nnl then it Is gone without doing any harm; but, best of all, it stldcm attacks the same person twice." This was such an apt illustration that it brought cheers that continued long enough to give the speaker a little rest. Another homely illustration he used was greeted with great cheers. He sioke about the statement that Bryan has made many times that the free coinage or silver would double its value. "Now." he said, "if I were going into the douLmg business I would begin with something else eggs, for instance. We have lots more hens in this country than silver mine owners, and they are more loyal, too. Let's have the government stamp on every egg, "this is two eggs,' and make people buy it and eat it for two eggs. Don't you see how much longer our eggs would last, and how much more money the farmer would get for his eggs? Why, that would be a grand tning and the hens could stop working overtime to supply the elemand. Then lets call six inches a foot. We may have a big war some time, and with that measurement we could send out an army of giants that could not be whipped." These things came so near heme to the crowd that they were received with much enthusiasm and many sugestions from the crowd on similar lines. One man said: "Let's keep up the good work and make two barrels of flour out of one. It would give the coopers more work to make the barrels, and they need work now, since we can't sell flour to Cuba." Senator Thurston's speecJi made him a very popular man with the pecple of this city. He used arguments and expressions illustrating them that were so homely and yet so directly to the point, that all will remember them and use them in their little neighborhood arguments with good effect. Senator Thurston was escorted to the Indianapolis train by the Marion Club and left here at 5:C0 for the capital city. More than 1,000 people were at the depot to see him leave and bid him good cheer and health to continue his good work for the cans of sounel money. The rally wound up with one of the best meetings of the campaign at the Grand Opera House to-night. One of the railroads brought in two special excursion trains for this meeting. The Columbus male glee club, composed of twenty-four young men, sang some lively and inspiring campaign songs. Representative J. Frank Hanly was Introduced by Mavor

-Balsley and made a ringing speech. His arguments in ravor or sound money were clinching and showed that the speaker had given the subject much thought. His speech was interrupted continually -with" applause. He spoke for an hour and a half, after which ex-Lieutenant Governor Thomas Hanna spoke for a few minutes.. During the speaking the streets were crowded with -eople who were unable to get into the opera housev A .number of glee clubs paraded the streets during the speaking singing campaign songs.?and the night was made hideous by the small boys with their irrepressible tin horns. The Republicans of Seymour are well satisfied with the success of the rally, and there is no doubt but what the cause of sound money has been greatly strengthened by the grand speeches of Senator J. M. Thurston, . Representative Hanly. Thomas Hanna and Hon. Marcus R. Sulzer. A BRIEF SPEECH HERE. Senator Thurston Addresses the Traveling Men's Club. The Commercial Travelers' Republican Club had an unexpected bit of good luck last evening in obtaining a brief speech frem Senator John M. Thurston, of Nebraska, the man who beat Bryan for the Senate in Nebraska in 1S04. Thomas E. Potter, who is always on the lookout for good things for the club, attended the barbecue at Seymour yesterday, where Senator Thurston spoke, anft rode home with him on the Marion Club train. He told him of the traveling men's club and explained that many of them would be deprived of the pleasure of hearing him at Tomlinson Hall Monday night, on account of leaving Monday morning cn their trips. He therefore begged that he would make ihem a talk, if only for a few minutes, and Senator Thurston consented. No notice, of course, could be given of the event, but Representative Overstreet was billed to speak before the club, and the spacious hall was crowded to the doors. Mr. Overstreet made a very able and forceful speech, in which he dwelt at some, length upon the incendiary nature of Bryan's speeches and efforts to array class against class, closing with a quotation from Lincoln's great sjeech delivered just after the Dred Scott decision had been handed down. When Senator Thurston appeared, escorteel by Mr. Potter and others, at about a quarter to 9 o'clock, he was greeted with cheers. He bowed his acknowledgement and quietly listened to the rest of Mr. Overstreet's excellent speech. When the ap plause and cheering that greeted Mr. Overstreet's eloquent peroration had subsieled the Bald-headed Glee Club gave a song and President MePnerscn introduced Mr. Thurston briefly. The man who beat Bryan was given an ovation when he appeared upon the rostrum. "Mr. President and gentlemen." said he,"I am so worn out in body and voice that I would not dare undertake to address you to-night. I will, however, say a very fewwords, and then I hope to meet you in a so cial way. to grasp your hands and get ac quainted with you. "3.1 y friend, Mr. Bryan, U going about the country telling the laboring men and farmers that they are the real business men of the country; that they should not take the advice of men who do business upon a larger scale, and that their interests are diametrically opposed to those of the mefchant, the manufacturer and the own ers of all industrial enterprises. Now, my friends, you who travel about in the in-

terest of business concerns, It does seem to me that you ought to know what business is and what is good for it. I should rather take your judgment upon such a question than that of all the orators in the country. (Applause.) You know that every leader of the two conventions that nominated Mr. Bryan of the convention whose nomination he has accepted and the one whose nomination he is trying to accept without saying" so every leader of those two conventions at Chicago and later at St. Louis is a political outcast himself. One of the significant things is that they are. for the most part, men who have graduated from other political organizations with the free and glad consent of their old political associates. "Out In Nebraska we have nothing to sav about Mr. Bryan but this, that we know him so well that he cannot carry the electoral vote of Nebraska. (Applause.) It was six years ago that he flashed like an oratorical meteor across the First congressional district, and. much to the surprise of everybody, himself included, carried it by over 5.000. Two years later he was a candidate for re-election to Congress and slipped through by a plurality of 113. (Laughter.) But in his last effort, when he and the present speaker canvassed the State for the election of the Legislature, he did not elect a single member of the Legislature in his own district, and the aggregate by which his men were defeated in that district was over 6,000 votes. (Applause.) So I tell you that out in our country the people who have contended with all forms of Populism, the silver heresy included, are not going to give the electoral vote of Nebraska to Bryan, simply because we have a local candidate. (Applause.) Populism and freesilverism are like the measles it breaks out in spots and is quickly cured, and when a community once gets over it it never has it the second time. (Laughter and prolonged applause.) Therefore let not vour hearts be troubled. This election does not take place in the dog days, and will not be affected by hysteria or summer madness, but in the cool and thoughtful November, when men can reason and think, and when the votes are counted out the victory will lie with Wrilliam McKinley. (Applause.) "We don't hold it as anything against William Bryan that he was born In I860, but we are thankful that our William was oorn eighteen years earlier; we do not hold it against Bryan that his father, during the war, stayed at home to rock little Billy's cradle, but we do thank God that our own William shouldered his musket and went to the front." (Applause.) Senator Thurston told of Sheridan's description of McKinley as a young lieutenant, riding up and flown his lines in the Shenandoah valley reforming his men and rallying them to victory, and continued: "He was again in the field, rallying his men for a principle that is not sectional, but contemplates union in its broadest sense. And there is no question 'of the result. Every Stats in the North, with the exception of the five silver-producing States, with their sixteen electoral votes, together with West A'irginia. and Kentucky, will record their electoral votes for William McKinley in November."

wild applause and cheering. President McPherson suggested three cheers for McKinley and Hobart and Overstreet. and they were given with a will. Then half a dozen men in the audience sugested tnrte cheers for Thurston and the hall rang again. The meeting thn adjourned, and Senator Thnrstnn . 1 infnrma 1 r n r i ,ri t inn He will rest in the city to-day and to-morrow. evening. Mnrion Club at Seymour. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. SEYMOUR, Ind.. Sept. 12. The Marion Ciub, of Indianapolis, arrived here in a special car at 11:30 this morning to take part in the big Republican rally. It was the finest looking organization in the city. although in numbers it was beaten by sev eral. The white duck trousers and tlark ccats of the boys presented a fine appearance, and as soon as they arrived they became the most popular people in the city. It is a club that will long be remembered by the people of Seymour, for it added much to the pleasure of the day. To it was assigned the post of honor in all the day's exercises. The pleasant eluty of acting as escort to Senator Thurston fell to its lot. The members came down to have a good time, and they did their part to make the people here enjoy the day. A few of their number composed a glee club, which turnished a number of much-appreciated songs. The one that was called tor most was written and sung by Harry Tutewiler. with the club joining in the -chorus. The chorus is the old familiar Midway song the "Couehee-couchee, and the music tor the verses is original with Mr. Tutewiler. Hetsang the verses and then the club joined in the chorus, accompanying it with the Midway dance. It became very popular the hrt time it was sung, and the boys were kind enough to repeat it a number of times during the day. Two of the verses are reproduced here: times aurmg the day. The Marion t'lnb Leaves. The Marion Club presented a very fine appearance yesterday morning when It left here. There were fifty members who turned out for the trip, and this was con sidered a large number to leave their business on Saturday to spend the entire day. The men lined up in front of their clubhouse and marched to the music of the When Band to the depot. Not the least in importance, if in size, was the club's new mascot. The mascot is little Charlie Craig, of 15 Indiana avenue. He is nine years of age and wears the regulation uniform. He attracted more attention than the club, both here and in Seymour. He marched like an old trooper, and is a general favorite with the club members. The yohow color bearers were an attractive feature of the trip. These are two colored boys dressed In bright yellow suits. Their blouses and knickerbockers are ot canary vellow. and their leggins are of lemon yel low trimmed In canary. Each carried a large American flag and then followed the regular color Dearer of the club. Il'XTEEY -WILL STICK. The Demo-Populist Scheme to Withdraw Him Slay Fail. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. RICHMOND, Ind., Sept. 12. It looks now as if it were not going to be so easy a matter for the Democrats and Populists of this Congressional district to get George H. Puntenney out of the race for Congress, as they had anticipated. The district committee decided to withdraw his name, but in spite of all the announcements made by leading Populists and Democrats. Puntenney is still in the race and his name will be on the ticket. The convention that nominated Puntenney was held at Connersville, and David McKee, of that place, and Thomas J. Newklrk, of this city, were made chairman and secretary, respectively. Both of these gentlemen are warm personal friends of Puntenney. and they have all along been emphatically opposed to the attempt to have him withdraw in favor of Robinson, the Populist. The certificates . of nomination have been siyned by Chairman McKee, and this afternoon they were received by Mr. Newklrk. When the signature of the latter is. attached and the certificates are sent to the clerks of the various counties in the district, in accordance with law, the name of Puntenney will have to go on the regular ticket next November. Mr. Newkirk said this afternoon that the district committee had simply forced Puntenney's withdrawal, and the gentleman himself was still a candidate. Mr. Newkirk added: "I have these certificates in my possession and will sign them. They will be sent to tne various counties in the district and Puntcnney's name will go upon the Democratic ticket." WATSOS AT HAGEIISTOWX. More than l.riOO Hear the Eloiinent Representative DiHenss the Issue. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. RICHMOND. Ind., Sept. 12. A Republican meeting was held at Hagerstown last night that was a rouser. Between 1,500 and 2,00 people were there to listen to Representative James E. Watson, who is being accorded a liberal hearing in his campaign work. A special train was run up from this city, consisting of four coaches, and, with the delegation taken on at Greensfork. was filled. The Hon. E. B. Reynolds was the chairman of the meeting, and when he introduced Mr. Watson to the audience there was a tremendous outburst of enthusiasm. Mr. Watson has been speaking almost constantly since the beginning of the campaign and the result has been damaging to his voice. The audience, however, gave him their undivided attention, while he. for the space of an hour and a half, discussed the issues of the campaign in a thoroughly logical and convincing way. He devoted most of his time to the currency and tariff questions, but he paid his respects to the other planks in the Chicago platform. The close of his speech was the signal for another outburst of applause, Mr. Watson was here to-day and left for Whitewater, where he spoke this afternoon, and at Fountain City to-night. In an interview with the Journal correspondent ne expressed

great confidence in Republic in success. He savs that the party is better organized in Indiana than ever before, the organization in theeounties being almost perfect. He thinks the free-silver sentiment is dying out. One of the best examples of this, he says, is in his old county Randolph where he knows it is trui. In his trip into northern Indiana he found the Republicans more enthusiastic than further south.

HARD Y-MIERS DEBATE. The Popocratlc Aomiuee Disappoints Friends at Spencer. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. SPENCER, Ind,, Sept. 12. The joint debate between the congressional nominees in the Second district, Messrs. Hardy and Miers, held here to-day, was attended by 1,200 people, about equally divided between the two parties. Congressman Hardy opened the debate with a vigorous and clear presentation of the tariff; and money issues. Mr. Miers has many personal acquaintances here, where his abilities as a lawyer are known, and they were greatly chagrined that he failed to meet with any skill the argument of Mr. Hardy. He. produced even less argument than Bryan to show how the United States alone could maintain gold and silver at a parity. It was plainly a victory for Hardy, as was shown by the demonstration given to him as he arose for his thirty-minute reply. N. H. Motsinger followed for the Populists, criticising both the old parties. Saturday Afternoon Meetings. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LEBANON, Ind., Sept. 12. School house No. 1, Center township, was crowded to its utmost capacity last night to hear S. R. Artman speak. It was one of the best meetings he has yet had. Ira Sharp, of Thorntown, spoke at Republican headquarters this afternoon. He is a forcible speaker, and his arguments met with a warm reception by the large audience present. These Saturday afternoon meetings were begun two weeks ago, and so popular have they become that they will be continued during the rest of the campaign. The addresses will, for the most part, be given by local speakers, and tho Old Shady Quartet will render campaign selections. The; farmers do their trading here on Saturday, and there is no trouble in securing good crowds to attend the speakings. The demand for McKinley pictures is out of all proportion to the supply. Over two thousand iietures have been put out over the county, and the demand for them continues. The Situation in Parke. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ROCKVILLE, Ind., Sept. 12. The McKinley Club held an enthusiastic meeting at their room last night. The members were atldressed by the Hon. David Strouse, whose patriotic speech called forth muci applause. He was followed by Mr. David Coulter, of Frankfort, whose speech also met with approval. The McKinley Glee Ciub, composed of E. O. Vessels, William Lutton, id Henry, Ciaude Ott, Homer Alien and J. V. D. Coleman, made their first apt" arance in popular campaig.i songs. They will sing at all the Republican meetings to be held in Parke county, going to judson to-night, where A. B. Powell will speak. Vhue the Democrats, Populists and Prohibitionists of I'arke county have combined against the Republicans, on the county ticKet, many of the fusionists will not support the "union silver ticket." There are Democrats who will vote for Paimer and Buckner, while there are other Democrats and Prohibitionists who will support McKinley and Hobart and the local ticket. O'Hara Talks to Farmers. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. INGALLS, Ind., Sept. 12.-Hon. J. W. O'Hara, of Peru, addressed over four hundred farmers at Salem Church, three miles north of here,' last- night. His arguments in favor of a sound money system were new and convincing. At the beginning of his speech William Stanley, a local Populist, trequently interrupted Colonel O'Hara with irrelevant questions. Colonel O'Hara answered all his questions for a time, until finally his patience became exhausted and he told a story illustrative of the windiness of the average free-silver voter. Stan-, ley began to growl and mutter. Colonel O'Hnra added, pointedly: "Yes. ladies and gentlemen, the average Populist is very windy. Wherever he is you can hear his voice. We hear him even here." Stanley did not disturb the. meeting further. Mayor Dunlap. of Anderson, Will address the lngalls McKlnleyites next Thursday night. Griffiths at Wabash. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WABASH, Ind., Sept. 12. Hon. John L. Griffiths delivered two excellent speeches in Wabash county to-day one at Somerset this afternoon, where an Immense crowd assembled to hear him, and again at the opera house, In this city to-night. The sneaker was escorted to the opera house by the McKinley Club and the Marching Club and was introduced by Captain A. M Atkinson. Every seat in the large auditorium, which accommodates 1.000 people was occupied, while many tilled the alsies and foyer, and still others were turned away. Mr. Griffiths spoke for oyer two hours, holding the closest attention of his audience. He devoted nearly the whole time to the money question, and made an admirable argument. There was much applause, and the young orator left Wabash highly pleased with his reception. Some Convincing: Figures. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. GREENSBURG, Ind., Sept. 12.-Last night S. B. Eward, treasurer of the Greensburg Limestone Company, addressed the McKinley Club. He gave figures as to the sums paid wage earners, showing that from 190 to lS93the company paid $110,222. and from 1893 to 1896, XGS 316 and for l(sS6 about $10,000, and that this depression in business was due to the. tariff and the agitation of the money question. Mr. Eward was followed by A. M. Willoughby, editor of the Review. At Tuckertown Col. M. D. Tackett and Col. M. C. Welsh, a veteran of two wars addressed a large audience. At New Point Dan Perry, a sound-money Democrat, spoke, and was followed by Hon. D. A. Myers, who called attention to the importance of the election of the congressional and legislative tickets. Lapel AVill Spread Herself. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ANDERSON, Ind., Sept. 12. Congressman Henry will speak at Lapel Monday afternoon, and the event will be made the occasion of one of the largest county demonstrations of the month. The Lapel club of 2."0 voters is making the preparations. A special train will be run from this city in the alternoon ana tne auui-isuu jjijic Club will make the trip by the way of Pendleton. Several speakers of local reputation will also be on the programme. The indications are that, with the proper weather. Lapel will, have the big. old-fashioned rallv of the campaign. Mr. Henry is very popular in that section of the country. Gibson County Republicans. Sreclal to the Indianapolis Journal. PRINCETON, Ind., Sept. 12. The condition of the Republicans in this city was never better.

(Concluded from First Page.) duties and our interests are the same; that the lofty and patriotic mission of the National Democracy is to maintain peace and order, defend constitutional j liberty, regulated by just and equal laws, and if possible avert from the country repudiation, bankruptcy and national dishonor. "I accept the unsought honor and responsibility imposed upon me by the national Democratic convention. I accept them as proof that my Democratic fellow-citizens confide in my devotion to Democratic principles, so clearly and accurately tlefined in the proceedings of the convention. It was known to the delegates to the convention before this honor was conferred upon me, and is well understood by the country, that my public services commenced more than fifty years ago, and that since that time I have taken an active, earnest part in the discussion and settlement of every public question which had at the time sufficient importance to attract popular attention. My opinions and my public acts have been an open book to be read by my contemporaries. I have been at all times controlled by my own convictions of duty, and I have now no one whom I can properly invite to share my responsibilities. Taught bv Jefferson. I opposed slavery when it ex isted. Inspired by Jackson, I defended the Union of the States to the extent of my ability, and. influenced by his example, when my conduct as a military officer was challenged as violative of iaw, I voluntarily submitted myself to the jurisdiction of civil courts. "When Governor of my adopted State, while I opposed and by peaceful means successfully resisted the interference of the United States, by its military forces, in the purely local concerns of the State. I distinctly conceded the right, and asserted the duty, of that government to enforce within the States or elsewhere its own laws by its own agencies. . DUTIES OF THE PRESENT. "Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen The matters to which I have adverted are but reminiscences they relate and belong to the past. Our duties as lovers of our country are present, and we must meet and deal with existing conditions, and t these the late National Democratic convention addressed Itself. Its platform asserts truths which can be demonstrated, and it correctly defines Democratic principles. It asserts that 'the Democratic party is pledged to equal and exact justice to all men ot every creed and condition: to the largest freedom of the individual, consistent with good government; to the preservation of the federal government in its constitutional vigor, ami to the support of the States, in all their just rights; to economy in tne public expenditures; to the maintenance of the public faith and sound money; and it is op posed to paternalism, and all class legislation.' "It also asserts that 'the declarations of the Chicago convention attack Individual freedom, the right of private contract, the independence of the judiciary, and the au thority of the President to enforce feeieral laws. Thv advocate a reckless attempt to Increase ihe price of silver by legislation

to the debasement of our monetary standard, and threaten unlimited issues of paper monev by the government. They abandon for Republican allies, the Democratic cause of taritf reform, to court the favor of protectionists to their fiscal heresy.' "It then asserts, with earnestness and in terms which will not satisfy those who assert it, to be 'the duty of a Democrat to first vote the ticket and then read the platform;' "that in view of these and other grave departures from Democratic principles we cannot support the candidates of that convetnion nor be bound by its acts." "The convention held in Indianapolis then eieclares, with force and exactness, the Democratic eloctrines with respect to taxation, whether by tariffs, excises or by direct imposition, and asserts that none of these can be rightfully imposed except for public purposes, and not for private gain, and reaffirms the historic. Democratic doctrine of a 'tariff for revenue oniy.' , "It is then asserted by the convention in its declaration of principles that 'the experience of mankind has shown, that by reason of theMr natural 'qualities, gold is the necessary money of the large affairs of commerce and business, while silver is conveniently adapted to minor transactions, and the most beneficial use of both together can be insured only by the adoption of the former as a standard of monetary measure, and the maintenance of silver at a parity with gold by its limited coinage under suitable safeguards of law. Thus the largest possible enjoyment of both metals is gained with a value universally accepted throughout the world, which constitutes the only practical bimetallic currency, assuring the most stable standard, and especially the best and safest money for all who earn their livelihood by labor or the produce of husbandry. They cannot suffer when paid in the best money known to man, but are the peculiar and most defenseless victims of a debased and fluctuating currency which offers continual profits to the money changer, at their cost. . , " -Realizing these truths, demonstrated by long public Inconvenience ind loss, the Democratic party, in the interests Of the masses and of equal justice to all, practically established by the legislation of 18j4 and 1S53 the gold standard of monetary measurement, and likewise entirely divorced the government from banking and currency issues. To this long-established Democratic policy we adhere and insist upon the maintenance of the gold standard and of the parity therewith of every dollar issued by the government and are firmly opposed to the free and unlimited coinage of silver, and to the compulsory purchase of silver bullion.' THE POPOCRATIC SCHEME. "This language is but a reiteration of the terse demand of the Democrat atform of 1S92, that 'Every dollar, coin r issued by the government, shall have .al power in the market and in the payment of debts.' The convention which assembled In Chicago in July of the present yet'.r in demanding the unlimited coinage of silver dollars on the ratio of 412Vi grains of standard silver to 23 8-10 grains of standard gold, with full legal-tender quality for all debts and dues, public and private, otfer to the country a scheme from which every voter may expect whatever advantage to the country or himself his reason or even his imagination can suggest. ... "The advocates of the unlimited coinage of full legal-tender silver do not agree as to what will be the consequence of the adoption by the United States of their favorite measure. The mere Intelligent know that it is impossible, by law, to give to silver bullion, or silver coin, a local value in the United States; and, therefore. Mr. Bryan, who must Te regarded as the official interpreter of the free-silver dogma, asserts his belief that the unlimited coinage of legal-tender silver by the United States alone would increase the value of silver bullion, which is to-day 67 cents per ounce, to $1.23, and he asserts his belief that under unlimited coinage the silver dollar, containing 412Va grains of standard silver, cotned by the authority of the United States, would be of equal acceptability and value with the dollar containing 25 8-10 grains of standard gold in all the markets of the world. "It is something that this opinion has ro support in the experience' of mankind. It is enough for present purposes to say it has no foundation other than the confident assertions of those who share in that belief. No party in the country ever undertook so much as do the advocates of the unlimited coinage of silver. They not only undertake to maintain commercial parity in value of about $134,502,041 silver dollars already coined by the United States under the authority of the acts of the 28th of February, 1S78, and of July 14, 1890. and of all the silver dollars that hereafter may be coined, but they assume the task of advancing the value of the silver coinage of all the -nations of the world to an equal acceptability and value with coins of gold. If tho expectations of such of the advocates of free coinage of silver are realized it would be difficult upon their own premises to perceive what would be gained by those who expect cheap money. "Aecentiner their claim that under free

coinage the dollar of silver would become of equal acceptability and value, ana equal power in the markets, and in the payment of debts throughout the civilized world, the silver dollar would then be as difficult to procure as the dollar of gold is now. They complain now that tne dollar of gold has too much purchasing power and is too difficult to obtain. "But the real expectation or tne great body of supporters of the free coinage of silver, and one much more In harmony with the experience of mankind, is that the unlimited coinage of silver would give to the country a depreciated and cheaper dollar, which would enhance nominal val ues and be used in the payment of debts, but would be attended and followed by ruin of all industries, the destruction of public and private credit, and irreparable mischiefs. "Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen Our platform commits us to the maintenance of the Democratic faith. Many of our associates, deluded by deceptive sophistries, are supporting a coalition which disavows the traditional faith of the Democratic party. The best we can hope for them is that they may be defeated, and when de feated, they may return to the safe paths tnat tney nave heretofore trodden." FELL.OAVS NOTIFIES BUCKLER, The Brilliant Xew Yorker Displays His Oratorical Powers. As the strains of "Old Kentucky Home" were dying out Colonel Fellows arose to address the gathering and to notify General Buckner. His effort was expected to be the oratorical treat of the evening, and his auditors were not disappointed. Colonel Fellows said in part: "sir. Chairman and General Buckner The National Democratic convention, which but recently assembled at Indianapolis, placed you in nomination for the office of Vice President of the United States (applause); and through its appropriate committee conferred upon me the high privilege of officially communicating to you that fact, and requesting your acceptance. This magnificent gatheriag in your own State, here to-night, is the indorsement and fitting supplement to the wisdom which guided us to that action. (Applause.) And the demonstration of love and affection which greet the presentation or your name here, where you are best known and best loved, are but the echoes of that applauding shout which greeted it from the representatives of all the States of this Union when it was proclaimed. (Applause.) "They tell us that that convention was not regular. It is asserted that it had no proper warrant by party authority for meeting and taking the action- We will not deny that the convention which assembled at Chicago had the right If they chose to exercise It to declare Democratic principles. We simply content ourselves by asserting that they refused to perform their duty which was in their power to perform. "(Applause.) "Democracy is something more than a name. Democracy is something more than a legend, and although an assemblage clothed In the uniform and vested in the official badges of Democratic authority may take our banner and masquerade In our uniform they leave to us the possession of firt across the plains of Nebraska. (Applause and laughter.) It speaks to-night from the tomb at Monticello. and the grave at the Hermitage with as potent a voice, and should have as potential an influence as when these great founders and captains of our faith spoke in visible tones. "They tell us you cannot win. and I reply' '"You shall be more than conquerors.' (Applause.) If success always implies the gewgaws and trappings of power, if it implies the nossession of the emoluments and profits which office brings, then. Indeed, vou may not win; but if success comes, as success always comes, to him who battles for what he knows to be right, regardless of consequences, and willing to die i-i the fight, if success means the performance of duty which Involves self-sacrifice the highest attribute and characteristic of duty itself, if that Is the true test of sucecss. then you shall be grandly triumphant In November." (Great applause.) GE.V. lUCKNEH'S REPLY. He 'Accepts the Position, ami Likens Popocrats to Benedict Arnold. General Buckner followed Colonel Fellows in a short speech of acceptance. He said: "I cannot fittingly express my acknowledgments to you. Mr. Fellows, for

the principles, we are tne uemocrauc party and they are the bolters. (Prolonged applause.) I invoke the memories of the past fr- mv Temoeracv. It was not breatned

Women In the far East are educated to a life of puie sensuality. Wrong, of course, but the other extreme is nearly as bad. Continually hammering away on the idea that anything connected with the reproduction of the human species is of necessitybad and degrading has had, in civilized countries, the effect of keeping wo men in ignorance and of dcvelonine a false modesty that has been prolific of weakness and disease. Four out of every five women in America are not perfect women in tbe sense of beingc perfectly healthy. They are rot perfectly equipped for the performance of the duties of wifehood and motherhood. Their training has made them feel that it is better to suffer in silence than to tell of their trouble and be cured. The doctors are much to blame for this, because when treatins the diseases peculiarly feminine they invariably insist on examination and local treatment That these things are generally absolutely unnecessary lias been proven by the wonderful success of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It i3 a positive specific for all forms of female weakness and disease. It purifies, strengthens and regulates the organs distinctively feminine, restoring them to a state of perfect health, and in so doing cures four-fifths of all the illness of women, for almost all womanly illnesses spring from thi3 one cause. Any woman who wants to know just how to use the " Favorite Prescription," and just what methods will be surefy successful in her case, may have the desired information, free of cost if she will write to Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the only known cure for constipation, biliousness, heart-burn, and attendant ills. There are many temporary reliefs from these troubles, but only one cure. The "Pellets" do not gripe or cause any other uo pleasantnead. Druggists sell them 25 cenU. the very graceful and eloquent terms In which you have announced to me the action of the National Democracy. I know, sir, that a spirit actuated that convention at Indianapolis which looked more to that -general principle, of Democracy, that spirit of natior alism. than to merit In selecting its candidates. That feeling crystallized around me as .an object to he associated with this gallant chieftain in blotting out all past differences and sectionalism. (Applause.) "I accept that position, Mr. Chairman, and will discharge that duty with as much, willingness as 1 ever discharged any on earth. I am proud to be associated with the movement which blots out all sectional lines forever, and makes us one people and one nationality. (Applause.) It is time that this ancient spirit of Democracy should lx revived. We have had amongst us parties builded up heretofore upon sectional hate, parties which have advocated special interests at the expense of all other Interests. We have had that great Republican party ruling and controlling the destinies of this country, built up uion hatred and antagonism to nearly one-half of the country. But now, at the very moment that that party has announced that it will be a national party, thero springs up against and among us another party, professedly built up on sectionalism, professedly and urgently insisting that one special Interest in this country, that of the greedy silver miner, shall be built up at the expense of every other citizen in the land. (Applause.) And what is that party? 'It is not proper that I should discuss the particular platforms of the different parties hers, but it is well for us as pnltl-?.ts,i-a.sk.the ori&n ot this party calling itself falsely the Democratic party, how it was constituted and what are the principles that it enunciates- They claim that they were regular. The delegates to that convention were appointed, it Is true, under the regular authority of Democratio organization, but the primaries, county and State conventions reaffirmed tho fundamental principles of tho Democratic party and sent their delegates to Chicago bound in honor and by every political duty to adhere to them. Did they do It? You have been told by the gentlemen who have preceded me how they violated their instructions; how they abandoned the principles of Democracy; how they betrayed their own party to the enemy, and went over to false doctrines. (Applause.) But they said that that was regular; and therefore, that we, and every one who has been associated with the Democratic party are bound to follow their lead, because they regularly proclaimed that the principles of Democracy were dead and those of Populism should bo hereafter those of Democracy. (Applause.) "Benedict Arnold was regular in his proceedings. (Applause.) ,.He was regularly commissioned by his government; ho wore its uniform: he was regularly assigned by Washington to the command at West Point and the island: he issued regularly his orders through the chosen staff officers to his troops, disbursing thejn broadcast in order that the enemy might come in and massacre all of them. All that proceeding was regular, but when he was detected; when his rank treason was discovered, Washington and his followers refused to follow such regular proceedings. (Applause.) "And yet, according to the cry of our friends at Chicago, Washington and tho patriots of ! the revolution were boilers. Mr. Chairman, the Democratic party can never indorse the heresies of the Chicago platform. We proclaim now, as we proclaimed at Indianapolis, the ancient principles of Democracy, obedience to law, a court un- , trammeled either by legislatqre or by executive control, a tribunal which is the last resort of the weak against tho powerful. That which our friends at Chicago would destroy we Insist on upholding and supporting its decrees by the whole power of the State and national authority. We believe in the Jeffersonlan doctrine of equal and exact justice to all and exclusive privileges to none. "We insist that for every one hundred cents' worth of work done by the laborer he shall receive a dollar worth one hundred cents. We advocate the freest possible trade, and we insist that the commerce of the world shall be brought to our ports In free ships, untaxed for the benefit of any special interest in this country. These were tho funelamental doctrine of Democracy we proclaime-d, and over that the flag of Democracy waves as proudly as ever in the hour of victory. (Applause.) ' "Mr. Fellows. I accept the task imposed on me by the National Democracy. It was unsought by me and undeslreei further than as one who is willing to devote the few remaining years of his life to fhe In- , terests of his country. (Tremendous applause.) Not only do I accept the charge imposed upon me, but. acknowledging the authority of that great Democracy to place its members wherever it chooses, I obey their manelate and bear the flag which, through you, they have placeel in my hands, under our distinguished leader In th.it vast concourse of tru Democrats who follow his steps, knowing that In the future, as in the past, thev lead onlv In th pathway of duty, of honor, of principle and 01 patriotism. (ureat applause.) At the conclusion of General Buckner's speech the convention adjourned, with three cheers for Palmer and Buckner. AN EX-SENATOR'S FUNERAL. Ilurial of Henry li.
