ALBERT J. BEVERIDGE. | Roosevelt, he read the following: WINDY WILLIE AND /S PAPA. | BRYAN MAKES TW HICAGO, Nov. 2.—Willlam J. Bryan's programme in Chicago to-day composed twelve speeches. | The crowds that greeted him were | greater than those at the meet- ings of yesterday and last night. The candidate began his {tinerary at Han- | del Hall, in the downtown business dis- trict, going from there to the public. i- brary, where he spoke to an outdoor After luncheon | he made two addresses in the Old Vienna Pavilion, at Sixtieth street and Cottage Grove avenue—one to the crowd In the ing and the other to'the throng that s unable to zain admittance. Here was the only semblance of disturbance mant- | fested. Two men in the audlience asked, Imost simultaneously, “How about orth Carolina?’ and Mr. Bryan was re- plying when one of the questioners in- sisted on asking a question concerning | trusts, whereupon the crowd demanded that he be thrown out, and threatened to lynch him. Mr. Bryan Insisted upon answering however, but could not do so for some time, owing to the uproar made by the crowd in expressing its resentment to- ward the questioner. The latter was saved from violence ‘only by police inter- Mr. Bryan's night meetings were held on the North, West, South and Southwest sides of the city, the closing speech being made at midnight at State and Thirty- sixth streets. At the “Old Vienna" meeting Mr. Bryan sald: othing is too sacred to be attacked by the Republican party in its greed for gold and for foreign lands. And I want to show you that when we denounce these methods that the Republicans now em- ploy, when we deny their destiny doctrine, we afe only saying what the Republicans themselves have sald In the past. 1 want to read you what the Republican candi- date for Vice President said on this sub- jectin—well, the book was published fn 1599, copyrighted for the first time in 18%: ‘The general feeling In the West upon this sub- ject after it was crystallized, is what be- came known as the “manifest destiny’ idea, which reduced to Its simplest terms was that it was our more than manifest destiny to swallow up the lands of ail adjoining nations who are too weak to withstand us, a theory that forthwith ob- tained immense popularity among all statesmen of easy international moral- ity." (Applause.) “They tell you it is destiny, manifest destiny. Mr. Roosevelt describéd mani- fest destiny as the idea of swallowing up those who are too weak to withstand us. The only difference between the manifest destiny that he denounces and the mani- fest destiny which he and the Republican party now support is that when he de- nounced the destiny it was swallowing up adjoining lands, and the destiny he sup- ports crosses an ocean 7000 miles wide to swallow outside lands.” (Applause.) Quoting again, he sald, from Governor “ior course, no one would wish to see this or any other settled community now added to our domain by force; we want no un- willing citizens to enter our Union.' " The speaker added: “That is what it was then. ‘We want no unwilling citizens to enter our Union." That {s what Mr. Roosevelt sald then. That is what we say now; but the Republican party has changed.” Mr. Bryan continued reading: * ‘The time to have taken the islands was before settlers came upon them. European na- tions war for the possession of thickly settled districts, which, conquered, will for centuries remain allen and hostile to the conquerors.” There he recognized that when you take people by force they will for centuries remain alien and hostile to the conqueror.” Again reading: ** ‘We, wiser in our generation, have seized the waste solitude that lay near us, the limitless forests, the never-ending plains, the valleys of the great lonely rivers and have thrust our sons into them to take possession, and a score of years after such conquest we see the conquered land teeming with a people that is one with ours.’ “That was good Republican doctrine then, but the Republican party has de- parted from the old ldeals. The Republi- can party has accepted European doc- trines and to-day the Republican party stands for those policies which have been employed by European empires and which have cursed both the empires and the colonies. We do not believe in the hold- ing of colonies. We do not belleve in hold- ing over people a government to which they are hostile. We ‘do not want them to be allens for centuries to come. We aro not willing to curse this nation or the Philippine Islands with a carpet-bag gov- ernment held {n force by a large standing army.”” (Cheers and continued applause.) At another point in his speech Mr. Bryan said: ““One of our Democratic speakers in this city by mistake got to the wrong meeting the other night. There was a Republican meeting in the same town where he was advertised to speak. He went out alone and he got into the Republican meeting by mistake. He told the doorkeeper that he was one of the speakers and went up on to the platform, and the man who had charge of the meeting said to him: ‘Don’t sav anything about pulling down the flag here, we are not discussing imperialism.’ (Laughter and applause.) “He said: ‘But how can a Democrat make a speech without discussing that?' The chalrman sald: ‘Are you a Demo- crat? The speaker sald: ‘Yes. The chairman said: ‘Then this is the wrong meeting.’ (Laughter and applause.) Now, my friends, that took place, and the Dem- ocrat who had that experience served in Congress at the same time that I did. No wonder they don’t talk about imperial- ism.” o HAS IT ALL FIGURED OUT. Bryan Says the Republican Cam- Has Been a Failure, CHICAGO, Nov. 2—William J. Bryan ELVE SPEECHES DURING THE SECOND DAY OF HIS CHICAGO TOUR Talks About “Manifest Destiny’” and Declares That the Republican Party Has Accepted the European Doctrine of Imperialism. ++40 | +| to-night gave out the following statement In the form of an interview: “The Republican campaign has been a faflure. The full dinner pail argument has been repudiated by the workingmen and the Republicans are cogpelled to con- fess that a large proportion of the labor vote will be cast for the Democratic ticket. Besides belleving with the Demo- crats in the general doctrine of equal rights to all and speclal privileges to none, the laboring men are against the trusts, the large army and the colonial policy. | The laboring men are also drawn to the | Democratic party by the fact that our | party Is opposed to government by in Jjunction, to the blacklist and to Chinese immigration, and in favor of arbitration and of a Cabinet officer selected to rep- resent the wage-earners, “The Republicans are now hoping to hold their strength among the farmers, but they have no policy which will ben- efit the farmer. The man who makes his Iving on the farm is the victim of all the vicious legislation for which the Re- publican party is responsible and receives none of the benefits conferred by special legislation upon corperations and syndi- cates. The farmer pays more than his share of the taxes and receives less than his share of the consideration of govern- ment. Republican policles have lessened the value of farm lands, increased the proportion of tenants and have driven tha farmers’ sons away from the farm, thus intensifying the struggle for existence in the cities. The farmers are almost unan- imously opposed to the trusts, and they can have no sympathy with the Imperial- istic poliey of the Republican party, with its attendant increase in the military es- tablishment. I belleve that the election will show that we have gained among the farmers as well as in the cities. | street.

In its vast column will be rep- | resented every .line of business that car well be thought of as identified with this great metropolis. There will be companles representing the Wall street district, coal and irom | trades, lumbermen, shoe ari( leather | trades, telegraphers, paper and assocfat- ed industries, building trades and vari- | ous exchanges.

Workmen, who acknowledged that they had been hired by Tammany leaders, were engaged all to-night in hanging thesc | banners on poles, many of them having been previously erected. One of the most popular of these ban- ners, judging from the frequency Wwith which it was displayed, reads as follows: “They make you parade, but they can- not make you vote against Bryan.” Another popular motto is: “It Is a trust parade and not a Republican parade.” At Mail street and Broadway there is hung across the route of gnarch a broad white streamer, which bears this motto: ~scKinley’'s badge is on my coat, but Bryan's is near my heart. God bless him.” Stmilar streamers and banners were at a late hour to-night being thrown across Fifth avenue, between Twenty-third and Fortieth streets, and altogether the men who march will have a chance to read plenty of silver literature on their long tramp in the Interest of the gold stand- ard. STEVENSON AT FORT WAYNE. “The small business men and the pro- fessional men are also feeling the effect of the industrial despotism which has grown up with this administration. “The poor are coming to the Democratic party because they want a chance In the race for life and many of the well-to-do are coming because they realize that the Democratic party affords better protec tion to honest wealth than the Republican party. “The Republican party is under the con- trol of those who seek advantage througn governmental favoritism and grow rich by the exploitation of citizens at home and subjects abroad. It Is a fight between Democracy on the one side and plutocracy on the other, and Demogracy appeals to the judgment and to the conscience of those who are willing to let live as well as to live.” —_—— Bear Steaks for Voters.

Nov. 2—Adlal E. | Stevenson received to-day the greatest ovation ever given any candidate in this | city, eclipsing even the Bryan reception | in 1886 This afternoon there was a parade composed of 2000 farmers. To-night the largest parade ever seen in the city took place.

The signers are all believers in the co- operative commonwealth, but are of the opinion that its advent will be hastened by Mr. Bryan's election. The letter is of considerable length and discusses in fts bearings ‘as to the object desired the so- clalistic side of the present economical and industrial conditions.

Nov. 2.—Socialist raised the red flag in St this f2 orators street to-night |.and were driven off the thoroughfare by the police, who were compelled to inter- fere to stop a riot. The Debs speakers occupied a half-dozen wagons to speak from along the street. There were frequent clashes between the speakers and the big crowds who gathered around the stands. Shortly after midnight the Socialists became bolder and a red flag was raised on every wagon. The red flag was very large, and in contrast was hung a flag of the United States of very small dimensions. The crowd took all this good naturedly, until some of the Debs speakers began kicking at the American flag. In a mo- ment there was confusion, and along the street several of the orators were dragged from their wagons and roughly handied, until the central detail police wagon was called. Sergeant Mahoney ordered the Debs wagons to leave the street, and they were escorted away, followed by the po- lice patrol. A mob of 1000 people followed them untfl they disappeared in the shad- ows of Lake street, B — JOHN G. WOOLLEY'S TOUR. | Prohibition Candidate Made Twenty Stops in Michigan.

MOUNTAINEERS CHEER WOODS. Continuous Ovation by Residents of Nevada County. NEVADA, Nov. 2—Samuel D. Woods, Republican Congressional nomines for the Second district, and his party arrived here this noon. They came across coun- try by carriage from Dutch Flat, seven- teen miles away, and their trip through the intervening mining region was a novel and exciting one. Delegations of gravel miners from around Red Dog, Little York, Lowell Hill and You Bet wers on hand at every turn of the road to greet the popular candidate from Stockton with cheers and assure him of their united support. At You Bet the population turned out en masse and an informal meeting was held. Judge Woods spent the afternoon in making friends among the people of Nevada City and he was cordially received on every hand. To-night he addressed a mass meeting in the theater, which was -crowded . to overflowing. Hon. J. M. Walling = was chairman. The Nevada City band played among other selections the 1900 campaign march written by Mrs. Eva Perkins of San Francisco, daughter-in-law.- of Sen- ator George C. Perkins, and it made a great hit. A mandolin club also took part in the programme. John M. Tyrrell ot Grass Valley, the Senatorfal nominee; anq Frank M. Rutherford of Truckee, a news- paper man who is making a fight for the Assembly;, made stirring addresses. They were followed by Mr. Woods, who de- livered one of the ablest and most effect- [ lve talks that has been heard here. Everything indicates that Woods will carry Nevada County over Sproul, -the Democratic candidate, by from 250 to 350 majority. Woods s regarded by the miners as an especlally able and broad- minded man. Both Tyrrell and Ruther- ford also are making winning fights. — Republican Meeting at Felton. FELTON.
