NEBRASKA DEMOCRAT'S SPEECH
IN CHICAGO HALL.
FOR NO ONE BUT WAS AGAINST.
In a Hall Whose Rent He Himself
Paid , and With a Crowd so Big that
Police Had to Interfere , He Went
After the New Yorkers.
Chicago , April 25. William .1. llryun
juldressed a largo audience here In
the armory of the Second llllnolH In
fantry. The place was packed to Its
utmost capacity , and a largo number
of people were unable to get through
the doors.
The meeting was entirely an affair
of Mr. Hrynn's , ho having rented the
armory and paid all the expenses
of the meeting. Ho was particular to
have it understood that his address
was not In favor of or against any
particular aspirant for the democratic
nomination for the presidency. Ills
subject was "The New York I'laform , "
and he repeated several times during
the course of his address that he was
discussing measures only , and not
men.
k-
In order that his address might not
have the appearance of being delivered
under any particular political influ
ence , or In the Interest of any especial
faction , Mr. Ilryan was his own pre
siding olilcer , and Introduced himself
to his hearers.
He characterized the platform
i adopted at the recent state conven
! tion In New York as "ambiguous , un
certain , evasive , and dishonest , " de
claring that It "would disgrace the
democrats of the nation to adopt such
n platform , and ought to defeat as
an aspirant for democratic nomina
tion any man who would ho willing
to have It go forth as a declaration of
his views on public questions. "
1 Mr. Bryan's Address.
His address was chiefly as follows :
"As It Is somewhat unusual for a
politlclal speech to be made as this
one Is tonight , let mo preface my re
marks with an explanation , I have
hired this hall and I Introduce myself
because I do not care to speak under
the auspices of any club of organiza
tion which Is committed to any par
ticular aspirant for ofllce. My concern -
. , corn Is not about the name or the
personality of the nominee , but about
the principles for which the demo
cratic party is to stand. While many
of the papers seem to assume that
the contest for the democratic nomi
nation is necessarily between Judge
Parker and Mr. Hearst , and that
every democrat must either be for ono
or the other , such a position Is illo
gical and without foundation. Those
who are classed as reorganizes and
jr I \v by " 'at ' I mean those who would carry
1 | 7 the party back to the position that It
occupied under Mr. Cleveland's ad
ministration are not entirely agreed
among themselves as to the proper
candidate upon whom to concentrate
their votes , and so those who are In
sympathy with the spirit of our recent
platforms may differ as to the relative
availability of those who represent the
progressive element of the party. My
own position is one of neutrality. I re-
gard as available all candidates who
are in favor of making the democratic
party an honest , earnest and coura
geous exponent of the rights and in-
.terests of the masses and I regard as
unavailable all who are in sympathy
with , or obligated lo , Iho great cor
poration thai today , dominates the
policy of the republican party and
seek , through reorganizes , to domin
ate Iho policy of Iho democralic party.
I have no favorlles among Ihose on
our side and no special anlagonism lo
Ihose who represenl Iho reorgani/.ers.
Parker Will Not Do.
"When , some two years ago , I be
came satisfied thai ex-Senalor David
15. Hill was planning to be a candidate
I pointed out the objections to his can
didacy. When the Cleveland boom
was launched I pointed out the objec
tions to his candidacy , and now that
Judge Parker is mentioned as a
candidate , though not the only can
didate among the reorganizes , I de
sire to present some reasons why ho
cannot bo considered as an available
candidate for a democratic nomina
tion , and I find these reasons , not in
his personality , but in his position
upon public miestlons :
"For a year ho has been urged lo
speak out and declare himself upon
the important issues of the coming
campaign , but ho has remained silent.
If this silence meant that nobody
know his views , those who have been
loyal to the party In recent years
would stand upon an equal footing
with those who deserted , bill il Is
ovldonl now that while to the public
generally his views are unknown , they
are well luiown to those who are
urging his nomination. Whatever
doubt may have existed on this sub
ject heretofore has been dispelled by
the platform adopted by the Now York
Btato convoritlon , and taking this plat
form as a text I am saguino enough
to believe that I can prove to every
unbiased mind thai Judge Parker
is not a lit man to bo nominated
either by the democratic party or by
any oilier parly lhal stands for
honesty or fair dealing in politics.
Plank on Tariff Lame.
On the turff question no Issue Is
joined. It was reasonable lo suppose
thai on this question , at least , some
thing would bo said , but Mr. Hill and
Judge Parker seem to bo as much
afraid of the tariff question us ol
other Issues.
"The money question Is Ignored en
tirely. No reference Is nuido to hi-
tnetullsm ut any ratio not oven to In
ternational bimetallism , to which Mr.
Hill seems to be mi attached In the
Chicago convention. No reference Is
made to the measure now before con
gress to molt up over iiOO.000,000 legal
tender silver dollars Into subsidiary
coin that Is only a limited legal tender.
Nothing Is said about the asset cur
rency which Is a part of the scheme of
the financiers. Nothing Is said about
the Aldrlch bill , which proposes to
subsidize the banks Into opposition
to tax reduction by loaning them the
surplus money In the treasury. There
Is no condemnation of the corruption
thai such a system would lead to. The
platform does not antagonize the
proposition now before congress to
give the national hunks unlimited con
trol over Iho volume of paper money.
In other words , there Is not a line In
Iho platform that Is written In behalf
of Iho people ; not a line thai will excite -
cite crltlcsm In Wall street.
"The platform Ignores the Income
tax ; It falls to endorse the election of
senators by direct vote , and also omits
the plank of the Kansas City platform
denouncing the corporate domination
In politics.
Platform is Dishonest.
"The Now York platform is a dis
honest platform , fit only for a dis
honest party. No ono lint an artful
dodger would stand upon It. The sub
mission of such a platform to the voters
ers of the state Is an Insult lo their
Intelligence , for It Is Intended to deceive -
ceivo them , and a deliberate ! attempt
to deceive especially so clumsy an
attempt as this platform Is Is a reflection -
flection upon the brains of those to
whom It is submitted.
"This platform proves that the oppo
sition to the Kansas City platform is
not opposition to silver , but opposition
to every needed reform and opposition
to all thai Hie masses desire.
"I had expected that a platform
prepared by Mr. Hill for Judge Parker
would be evasive and lacking in frank
ness , but I did not conceive that any
body of men calling themselves demo
crats would present such a platform as
an indication of whul the next demo
cratic platform Is to bo In case the
reorganizes control the convention ,
then who will bo able to deny the
secret purpose of the reorganizes to
turn the party over to predatory
wealth ? With such a platform anil
a candidate who would be willing to
run upon it , the party could secure as
large a campaign fund as the republi
can parly has over secured , but In"
securing it It would , like the republi
can party , secretly pledged the ad
ministration to a construction of the
platform satisfactory to the corpora-
lions and Ihe combinations.
Boys Play Baseball.
A wildly contested game was played

FLEEKS HALE'S ROLLER.
Oldest Inhabitant Recalls the Way
He Laid Out Land.
"Oh , you will find when you get
up Ihcro , " said ono of Hie strangers ,
taking a pull at his whiskers and
glancing around the room to make
his speech more effective. "You will
find when you get up there on the
reservation , that all of the good land
has boon taken up by the Indians.
The land on the creeks has boon
raptured. "
"Don't you know , " Interrupted the
oldest inhabitant , "don't you know ,
sir , thai a whole lot of people who
came to Nebraska years ago , looking
for the best land , selllod right down
on the creeks and thul llioso who fol
lowed and took the land back on the
divides got the richest , choicest
farms in all the country ?
"Don't yon know tha the land
picked oul by Iho Indians Is about
ten to one the pooresl In Iho bunch ,
though superficially good looking
enough , and thai the very besl lhal
Is on Iho reservation , still , remains ?
"Why , I can remember , " and the
oldesl inhabitant seemed to bo happy
all over , dreaming In the past , "I cai (
remember when Flecks Halo came
out here and looked around for a
homestead. Dozens and dozens had
been through Madison county ahead
and hud settled on the creeks. They
hud gone right over the rolling land
Ihat he finally took , and today theirs
ulnt worth $15 an acre and hls'n's
worth a hundred. Ho Jest looked all
around and then ho setlled on lhal
old chunk Ihat nobody thought was
worth nothln' . And after awhile ho
had a great big roller hullt. Nobody
knew what that roller was for an'
he never said nothln' . Jcgt kept on
bnlldln' Iho fool concern an' gel the
dorn thing all done , ho hitched eight
cattle to It and drug it down onto his
land. The whole dorn town follered
along to see what Is was for. It had
jest rained and the ground was all
soft and wot. And bo doggoned if
ho didn't jest roll that land , the roll
er beln' eight feet bight and so Hat-
lllco that it couldn't sink down In
rolled that land with about a ton of
sand on top , until the humps jest laid
right square down an' left it all ns
smooth and fiat an' even as any land
y'evor laid yor eyes on. They was
about as big as meal sacks and stuck
all over the place an' when ho got
( louo bo dopgonod of that wasn't the
slickest ploco of farm In the whole
domed county.
"Everybody wondered what ho was
goin' to do with the fool thing , an *
nobody knowed for sure. An' the
whole town went out lo see it go
an' that's what they saw. An' bo
duggoned ef that great big roller don't
eland In his yard to this day. "

NEW INQUEST OVER MAJ. DAVIS
Family of the Omaha War Veteran
Dissatisfied With the Verdict
of Suicide.
Omaha , Neb. , April 21 ! . Coroner
llralley will reopen the Inquest on
Major .1. W. Davis the Into meat In-
ipeclor at South Omaha and brolher
n-law of George Francis Train who
was found dead hist Friday noon In
i gully near South Omaha's north
loundary.
Major Davis' family Is dissatisfied
with the verdict that ho "died from
lolson administered with bis own
land , " and one juror , George Red-
nan , vigorously objected to signing
the verdict for lack of evidence.
\Vlml became of perhaps | lfifi thai
Major Davis should have bad on ills
icrson while only 2fi conls was
ouiid In his pocket ? That Is a ques
tion upon which the family seeks
iKhl.
II Is also doubled by the family that
10 died of strychnine , as his body
was not drawn up anil his hands ,
while clinched which was bis habil
ay peacefully folded on his breasl
when his body was discovered lying
n a gully beside a railway track near
rwenty-sevenlh anil Houlovard streets.
It. was Friday afternoon that the
) ody was Identified and that same
evening the Inquest was held and Iho
verdict given. Helatives of Major
Davis bavo since found a number of
witnesses to the fact that Major Davis
had Monday night $1')2 ) and they can
account for but less than $20 of this
thai he paid out. Naturally they won-
lor whore thu balance went. They
do not say that ho met foul play , bill
they want all the light that can bo
thrown upon the mystery by an au
topsy and by the testimony of wit
nesses Interviewed since the hasty
Inquest.
Coroner Mralloy has Instructed Dr.
Lavender to make an autopsy and as
the body of the major was placed In
a receiving vault Instead of being bu
rled , this makes It easily accessible.
Druggist Scarr of South Omaha
says thai the medicine that Major
Davis habitually took was not strych
nine as some friends supposed but
"hop tea , " which induces sleep , and
that it does not contain enough mor
phine to bo possibly fatal.
Fellow employes of the government
ofllco whore Major Davis was em
ployed nay that Monday he had curs
to inspect on the tracks adjoining the
gully near which his body svas found
but that he had none at that pla < - < *
Tuesday. A flagman saw him last
Tuesday noon in Iho gully. Friday
noon the body of the major was dis
covered , half burled beneath clay that
had washed down the side of the gul
ly. Lying bcsldo him was an original
package bottle of strychnine from
which a little had been extracted.
Contrary to the first report Major
Davis was not carrying life Insurance
and therefore reopening the inquest
Is not to settle any legal questions
about insurance , but simply to get at
the truth and satisfy the family as to
how ho met his death.
