DeArmond delivered an address in the Court-house to-night to an audience packed to suffocation notwithstanding the fact that this is the home of both Republican and Probibition opponents. A large num. ber of women were present. His discourse was largely on the finan- cial issues of the day, taking strong grounds forthe 16 tol doctrine His reference to W. J. Bryan was loudly and uproariously applauded. He said that the nomination of Bry- an belonged to a representation of old Democracy, and freed from its | load of the “Old man of the Sea” it would step forth the champion of youth and the herald of national prosperity and integrity.
