Mad* a “Heroic Political Fight.** Although it was obliged to thus reform while under the fire of the enemy It has made the most heroic political fight ever seen In this country. It was confronted by all the boodle that could be scraped together on two continents. It was confronted by all the hanks, all the trusts, all the syndicates, all the corporations, all the great papers. It was confronted toy everything that money could buy, that boodle could debauch, or that fear of starvation could coerce. It was confronted by the disgust which the majority of the American people felt toward the national administration for which they held us responsible. It was confronted with the unfounded charge of being partly responsible for the hard times. It was confronted by a combination of forces such as had never been united before and will probably never be united again—apd, worse still, the time was too short to educate the public. While we are defeated our party is more vigorous and in better condition generally than it has been for a third of a century. Hu a Whack at the “Nationals.” I especially call your attention to the utter insignificance, as shown by the returns, of those men who after having helped to ruin our party wers either driven out or left It in this campaign. Two years ago these men wers with us, and always insisted on occupying front seats and wanted to lead. Then we were not confronted with any powerful opponent and we lost the State by upward of 160,000 majority. This year thea men opposed us, and we had te meet all the forces I have named. We had no sinews of war. We had all the power of corrupt wealth against us. We had to reform under the fire of the enemy, and the time was too short to make a proper campaign, yet we have reduced the adverse majority of two years ago by about one-third. These men are at last where they belong. Dag the Grave of the Gold Standard. While we are defeated we have dug the grave of the British gold standard. One more campaign of education will forever bury the palsied form of that curse which has blighted prosperity and the happiness of mankind. My fellow Democrats,'on account of my health I welcome the retirement which is now assured me and I have long wished for, but let me say In parting that If you cherish republican institutions, then your country will need your services. JTwb years ago several states were carried by the same forces that have triumphed this year, and In every one there followed & Saturnalia of corruption J and rottemiess. Now, these conditions are to toe spread over the whole country, and it will devolve upon the Democratic , party to ultimately stop them. The. shadow of the men and the influences that will control the coming administration is already on the land. Make* Some Prediction*. Republicans tell us that the newlyelected president is weak; that he allowed the manufacturers to frame the tariff bill, and that as governor of Ohio he was very weak. We may assume that the coming administration will be controlled by the men who have been so prominent in securing this'"election. Look at some of them: Mr. Hanna, Mr. Carnegie, Mr. Depew, Mr. Pullman, Mr. Huntington, Mr. Payne, Mr. Thurston, of Pacific railroad fame, and a number of others of the same character. Many of them have long been regarded as corruptionists, as men who have helped to spread a moral leprosy over this country, and who use this government as a convenience to make money for corporations. There will come bond issues and- all manner of government jobs, and although we have no enemy on either side of uS, an effort-win be made to give this country a standing army because plutocracy demands this. Has Hopes for th* Flection of 1900. • ,An effort will be made to advance the doctrine that local self-gpvernment does fiat go hand in hand with federal supremacy, but that the president shall have the same power to use the army * that the czar of Russia has to use his army, 'and efforts will be made to perpetuate government by injunction and ‘ destroy trial by. Jury, because plutocracy demands these things. An effort will be pj»de to still further tighten the grip ofth* money power- onthe throats of the people and to gradually cofivert-: .theis republic Into a plutacratlc oligarchy, and It will devolve on theDemcratio party to save free Institutions. I believe that at the next general election the people will reverse the verdtot

if yesterday; the return Of prosperity will not. noma- as promtsod. -.JJo doubt there will be a spurt of activity built on false Hopes, but as’ the forces, which have produced the present distress willgo rtghT'dfirasfThe dear dbirar must, in the end.j; destroy enterprise, wa permanent relief, can be expected } of, t&is administration. Uo Credit to the RcpffßUcana. Remember it was Jefferson who led the way in .freeing us from Britlskdomlnation in 1776. It was again Jefferson who waved free institutions In 1800. It was Jackson who freed the people from the clutches of the corrupt .money power in 1832. It was the grva,t comon people of Ameilca and nor the rlch who saved aur institutions in. 1861, afid it will devolve wi the great corpon people of the Country to save free government in M —-— JOHN-Pr-ALTGELD.

IS HE AN ANARCHIST?

The Sole Survivor of the Sixteen Men Who Named the Republican Party, At Marshall, Mich., during Mb recent tour through that state, Mr. Bryan reversed the usual ordei* x>f things and Instead of making a speech himself merely introduced the speaker. He said!..— : —— ~ “My friends. I am not going to have time to talk to. you, but I simply want to make a little speech in the Introduction of a famous anarchist who Is going to wpeak after~l~nmr gone. (Applause.) Now, t want you when he gets u®> to talk to you to take a good look at him. He 1b a typical anarchist. You will probably see hla.picture In Harper's Weekly next week. His name Is the Hon. Albert Williams, and he lives at lOXtL, Mich., and was introduced two years ago at lona by Mr. McKinley as the only survivor of the sixteen who met and adopted the first republican pfatform, and suggested the name of the republican party, on the 6th of July, 1854, under the oaks at Jackson. (Applause. and a voice, “I was there.”) He must be an anarchist, because he Is with us this year. (Daughter.) My friends, he. is one of tire many men Mho have found It necessary to either get out of the republican party or surrender their country Into the hands of foreigners, and he has naturally chosen to get out of the party.”

SEN. BUTLER'S ADDRESS

Tells How tbe Cards Should Have Been Played to Win. i _,. ' / ‘' \ ; • ——- —— - . —, i HE COUNTS THE TRUMPS. ;-■ , • ; Uk J . V . ~ J • ;—■ i .1 Clear to Him That tbe Made No Mistakes. 1 * '» *»•'* * K • ' • • < Washington. D. C., Nov. 7.—j Senator .Butler .today issued the following:. | To the people of the United States: In theremarkable cam-j paign just closed the People’s party was the only party that supported solidly and unitedly, the great and vital issues- represented in the candidacy of Mr. Bryan. This was natural, sor 5 the People’s patty came into existence to bring to the front andto press to victory the of Lincoln and Jefferson, already long discarded by the two old parties. The money power, feeling reasonably sure of its control and domination of JJhe leaders and the controlling influences in the Republican party, in 1892 gave its support to the candidacy of Grover Cleveland for the especial purpose of having him, through; the use of patronage and otherwise, prush out the silver senti ment in the South, and make the. leaders in that party as completely subservient as those in the. Republican party. To accomplish : this purpose four Cabinet Ministers were selected from the South and an unusually large amount of patronage was used on political leaders to the same end. It will be remembered that Mr. Cleveland demanded that the* Democratic Senators and Congressmen give a decisive vote in the interests of • the gold standard before he would even give out the postoffices.

This deep-laid plan might have sncceeded had not the People’s party at this juncture sprung into existence, exposed the plot, stood in the breach, and appealed to the patriotic hosts of both parties to check the scheme of of the people’s despoilers and rally to the common defense. Thus the People’s party forced the Democratic organization to repudiate Clevelandism and return to correct fundamental principles. The Issue Joined. , Not only this, the People’s party then forced the Republican party to cease hedging and straddling for the purpose of deceiving the people; and drove it to take a stand on one side or the other of the vital issues at stake. The issue then being squarely joined, it was evident that those influences in the Democratic party'which had dominated and debauched the party for a quarteT of a century would be driven to the support of. the party that took a position on the side of trusts, monopolies, and money gamblers. While, on the other hand, it was evident that even a larger per cent of the Republican party favored the principles now squarely forced to the front, yet ohly a small per cent would ifi this campaign .support them because, they found them under the Democratic banner. • * u ' Had it not been for the prejudice against the 1 name, as well as a want of confidence in Democratic promises, for which it must-befrankly admitted past experience furnished ample ground* of the voters of the country, in spite of the tremendous and unparalled forces put forward by the Republican managers, would have cast their vote for financial reform and American independence. The Peopled party, with a high patriotism and an unsqlfish deyotion to principle—greater than ever;; before exhibited by hny other party—stepped outsid-e of its bfganizatibh to thfow its' two million votes solidly for Bryan. Had not more than this number

of those who called themselves 'democrats in 189 g gjveft lh«|p support to Mr. cause of Ihe people and American principles would have triumphed this year. Their places Tir the ranks of the reform hosts mipst be taken by patriotic Re publicans, tin wot Id had e\linl>i,®olnop-Jilveri Ito-i. tlio rescue. Thejplelt:tio| of McKiulej^ljid ;do not express the desires and sentiments of the people. The hiajority oppose the policy . for which he stands, and will so vote •whenever an opportunity is'-pre-sented for a proper alignment. The remarkable and brilliant campaign of William J. Bryan ‘’vyould have aligned these; forces, sand marched them to a triumphant victory if any candidate or 1 'leader in America could have r dpue so under the Democratic 'banner. , Jffe Takes a Gloomy Vjftwp,. L The administration of McKin ley cannot bring prosperity to the American people. . The mills cannot be kepi open, idle labor cannot be given employment, and general prosperity cannot be restored and maintained until the wealth producers receive fair returns for their labor, and thus are enabled to purchase. The gold standard and monopoly rule, to a continuation of which McKinley stands pledged, means four more years of falling prices, "four more years of lockouts and Strikes, four more years of reduced wages and idle labor.

This will cause the patriotic rank and file of the Republican party to condemn and repudiate McKinleyism, as the patriotic rank and file qf the Democratic party has condemned and repudiated Clevelandism. I cannot believe otherwise, for I have not less confidence in the patriotism of this class of Republicans than the rank and file of the Democratic party has already demonstrated. Therefore a large per cent who, though not fooled by the specious pleas of “honest money” and promised prosperity, yet who would not in this campaign fight under the Democratic banner, ■will sure’ ; join hands with, the majority ~ the American voters butside < the old parties to overthro a government of trusts ai tonopolies, run in the intei of foreign capitalists. The io’s party has made this poss n fact, inevitable. The pof of the People’s party in “reat contest has convince' y patriotic American that * -ty can be trusted to stand e principles of good govt t and the interests of th' a under any and all circun . Therefore the People’s j l be the nucleus round wh patriotic hosts must and ther to redeem a betrayei i and to 1 estore prosperity opressed and outraged] • I BUTLER, Ohairman ational Committee o ;pie’s Party.
