FINAL SURVEY FOR DAM. Electrical Plant to be Established at

[Special to The Indianapolis News ] LAFAYETTE. Ind., June 23.-A party of
Government surveyors have gone to Horseshoe bend, on the Tippecanoe river, to make tho Anal survey for a dam and electrical pleat that is to be erected at that point In the near future, for the purpose of furnishing power to the surrounding towns and cities. At this point in the Tippecanoe river there is a natural fall of many feet, and some months ago it occurred to Lafayette men that if they would construct a dam, change the course of the river slightly, and harness the water that was tn that manner sent over the falls, they would derive power enough to supply the demands of cities and towns within a wide radius, Charles A. Meeker and other capitalists became interested in the matter, and finally the Government was induced to have experts gauge the water at various period* during the year. The result# were satisfactory, and a dam will be erected that will furnish the means for power that will greatly benefit Lafayette,

•Jlra" Keach was not here..
It had been the intention to decorate the city, but the rain spoiled that. In the opera house but three pictures were seen: Those of William Jennings Bryan. Willie Collier, the comedian, and Tim Murphy, the actor. Several persons almost went blind trying to discover a pic-
ture of Cleveland.
While Mr. Bryan sva* talking on the court house square, Jfohn W. Kern entertained the opera house crowd with a speech, eulogizing “the most representative American Democrat now living— William Jennings Bryan,” and the Kansas City platform. Mr. Kern was in good voice and made a rattling speech that was frequently cheered—tn fact, he was given about as much applause as the real
orator of the evening.
Greeted with Enthusiasm.
Mr. Bryan reached the opera house and was greeted with noisy demonstrations. John W. Kern was chalrmaji of the meeting, and Introduced Mr. Bryan. Mr. Bryan said he was glad^ to come into this, county, where the* true meaning of Democracy is so open, more open than Jn some other counties of the country. He warned the people not to Relieve all that appeared in the .metropqlitun papers, that tried to create the impression that there is no Democratic sentiment In thl* coun-
tr “i
never hope to convert an aristocrat," said £Ir. Bryan. “When I find a man who feelsfkhat he is made of superior clay and Iboks down on the rest of the people, my work is to get him out of the Democratic party, and keen him out.” This covert reference to the gold Democrats was greeted with applause. Mr. Bryan declared that he did not write the Kansas City platform, and said that he had only insisted on the proviso that delegates who had been instructed by the State* to stand by the Chicago platform should not betray their instructions at Kansas City. “One millionaire put behind the bars to convict stripes will do more to stop the violations of the .trust law than all the speeches the Republican orators can make.” said Mr. Bryan, and the audience fairly shook the town with its shouts. Mr. Bryan said that the Republican party was powerless because it does not oppose the trust magnates in the party. He also threw- a few burning arrows into the Cleveland camp by pointing out how the Cleveland administration had
tailed to enforce the trust laws. Accepted as a Keynote.
Mr. Bryan created a good deal of laughter when he said that he had received a letter from an Indiana Democrat, asking him to resign from the party, so that the Democrats could get some campaign
funds.
Mr. Bryan's speech was
considered a
“keynote,” in which he laid down th® policies of his part of the Democratic party, and the trend of it all was that there must be affiliation with the “reorganizers,” or the gold Democrats. He was particularly bitter against Cleveland, even to charging the former President with getting benefits amounting to $175,000 from the sugar trust. He frequently referred to himself as a private citizen, and was not displeased when he was Interrupted with declarations that he would be nominated again for President. The Republicans are not particularly pleased with Mr. Bryan’s visit. They say that the affairs of the county are in such shape that the Republicans stand a good show to elect some of the officers at the next election, and that Bryan’s visit was intended as a bracer for the Hancock county Democrats, a* well as a slap at a portion of the Democrats in Marion county. With the exception of a few, the recognized leaders of the Democracy in Marion county were conspicuous for their absence, a fact that was commented upon
freely.
One incident in connection with Mr. Bryan's visit is causing several quiet laughs. In getting out the bills advertising Mr. Bryan's coming, one of the printshops here used yellow paper. Stoke* Jackson discovered the yellow bills before many of them were posted, and they were all destroyed and white paper substituted. However, the meeting was a splendid success, no matter what the purpose of it. The crowd was enthusiastic, and Greenfield took care of its guests In its
usual hospitable way. W. H. BLODGETT.
