Arrangements are being made for Bryan to invade Kansas. The railroads ere busy running excursion trains to Canton free of charge. Georgia and Florida will speak out for Bryan next Tuesday and Wednesday. England has taken measures to prevent a further importation of gold, by advance of the bank rate to 3 per cent. For a man who claims to be con fident of success, Mark Hanna is do- ing a remarkable amount of striving to avert defeat. Bismark, the iron chancellor of Germany, says vote for Bryan and free silver and don’t wait for an in- ternational agreement. The republican that predicted Bryan would never take his seat if elected is not an anarchist, he is a gentleman and surely must be a graduate of Yale. The Globe Democrat says McKin dey has a fighing chance of carrying Missouri. Sometimes the Globe- Democrat gets funny just for the sake of seeing its arch enemy, old Filley, chew the bridle reins. The bankers national association which met in St. Louis last week turned out to be a McKinley ratifi cation assemblage. They had read in the Globe-Democrat that McKin- ley would issue bonds to sustair the credit of the government. Since Tammany has shown her hand there are lots of big democrats who were in doubt climbing on the band wagon. They say they are fall- ing in line for regularity. Out west they call us pi ate, in New York they can call i Maaity We don’t <are, so the band, playa and ali get in line. The middle-of the road populist convention to put a state ticket in the field ia Nebraska, in opposition to the regular democratic populist fusion ticket, proved to bea biank failure. In answer to the call to meet at Lincoln, Monday to place a ticket in the tield, but two middle. of-the-road men, C. M. Clark and Dr. Bryant, put in an appearance and the meeting colapsed. —_—_—_.__ The republican members of the} VPablie Speaking. Geo. B.

The reception given Mr. Bryan, by the tigers of Tammany hall Tues day night in New York could not have been grander, bigger or more enthusiastic The people gathered in multitudes, the streets for blocks from the hall were jamed, the police force was powerless and the scene| in Tammany hall when Mr. Bryan entered was never witnessed before. Mayor G. W. Clardy, of the real estate firm of Clardy & Bruner, went to Des Moines, Iowa, last week and closed a deal for a business block in that city. The consideration was 1090 acres of land belonging to Chas. Brashear. The deal was ona basis of $67,000. Mr. Clardy was in Omaha at both republican snd dem ocratic headquarters and says Ne braska is sure for Bryan. Boston, Mass, Sept. 25.—The audience which greeted Mr. Bryan on Boston Common was the largest which he had faced since he started on his tour through the enemy’s country. No estimate placad the number of people at less than 60,000, while many place it at 70,000. Bryan had addressed a big crowd at Worcester at 3:30 o'clock. It was very enthu- siastic aud cheering at every telling point. The bankers held a convention in St. Louis last week. They talked gold standard sound, money and McKinley. The rules of the associ ation (non political) were cast aside and the proceedings of the conven- tion were given entirely to politics eo the reports of the convention in the city papers inform us. Before the convention adjourned the same papers tell the country that Mark Hanna tapped the bankers for con tributions to the McKinley fund and each banker put up $2,500. Hanna's agents are resorting to every device known to corrups poli ticians to prevent a union on electors between the Populists and demo- erats of Missouri and if sucha union national committee are getting des- perate.

Bryan has been ridiculed, earica- tured, abused—so was Lincoln. We publish below some extracts from the New York Heraid,of thirty- six years ago, concerning the cam paign nomination and the first visit of Abraham Lincoln to New York It was on this occasion that he made his historical speech at Cooper Union, February 27.1860.

Tbere must be some- thing more alluring than patriotism behind this immense outlay of money by those great corporations and trust funds. Pennsylvania is the hot bed of trusts. It is there coal oil, coal and iron trusts have their being and flourish. They know their man McKinley and it behooves them to buy him into the white house. They also know the result in the election of Bryan. The trusts will have to go Since the democrats and populists of Missouri have effected a fusion on electors, making Missouri doubly certain for by a plurality ranging from 75,000 to 100,000, Mark Han- na has given up the idea of placing this state in the McKialey column or among the doubtful, and changed his plans of putting $7,000 ia a slush fund to buy votes In other woids itis announced that he bas given up the fight in Missouri and ;n0 money will be spent in the state to defeat Bryan.

Excerpts from Herald editorials of that time are appended: New York Herald, Feb. 28, 1860 Mr. Lincoln is tall, thiy, dark- complexioned, and apparently quick in his perceptions. He is rather un steady in his gait, and there is an involuntary comical awkwardness which marks his movements while specking. His voice, though sharp and powerful at times,has a frequent tendency to dwindle into a shrill,un pleasant sound. His enunciation is slow and emphatic, and a peculiar characteristic of kis delivery was a remarkable mobility of bis features, the frequent coutortions of which excited the merriment which his words alone could not well vreduce. THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION FOR THE PRESIDENCY. New York Herald, May 19, 1360. The republican convention at Chica go has nominated Abram Lincoln,of Illinois for president of the United States—a third rate western lawyer. poorer even thau poor Pierce. * * * The conduct of the Republican par- ty in this pomination is a remarkable instance of small intellect growing smaller. They pass over Seward, Chase and Banks, who are states men and able men, and they take up a fourth rate lecturer who cancot speak sood grammar, aud who to raise the wind, delivers his hackney- ed, illiterate composition at $200 apiece Our readers wili recollect that this peripatetic politician visit ed New York two or three months ago on his financial tour. when, in return for the most unmitigated trasb, interlaced with coarse and clumsy jokes, he filled his empty pockets with dollars coined out of Republican fanaticism.

Mo, Sept. 28 —It de- veloped to day that the republicans | tried to bribe the populist state | committee Tuesday to defeat fusiom| between democrats and populists on | the electoral ticket. They are said to have made, through a well known re publican leader, two alternate pro positions,both of which are strongly suggestive of Hannaism. j One was that if the populists| would decline to fuse on electors they would be given $5,000 as a| “campaign fund” by the republicane. It was soon seen that this could not be carried out, so proposition num. | ber two was made. This was that if the populists would postpose fusion for ten days the republicans would raise the ante toa possible $10,000. These propositions were made to known “middle of the road” men aud to one or two others who were sup posed to be “oper to conviction ” Ia the executive s: «sion ot the com. | mittee, J. Weller Long of the First J. B. Diues of the Thirteenth, Sheri dan Webster of the Twelfth and G. T. Demaree of the Fifth, bitterly opposed fusion.
