J. Bryan's arrival In Indiana and Illino
called forth the same hard v.iirk that ha
characterized each vldt he has made t
what Is considered by many the battl
ground ot the campaign. Fourteen stop
were Hcheduled for these two states , and h
spoke at nearly every one of them , an
where It was Impossible for him to spca
ho again pressed Into service ex-Congress
man McMillan , who talked to the people fo
the nominee. Mr. Hryan left Cincinnati o
the special car of President I'cabody of th
Baltimore & Ohio at 7 o'clock this morning
The car was In charge of Hallroad am
Warehouse Commission Cantrell of Illinois
and AlllenV. . Clark , state commlttcemai
of Indiana , and National Coniinltteema
AVoodaon of Kentucky , l.awrencoburg wa
leached at 7:37 : , and the platform erecte
near the depot was surrounded by a grea
crowd of expectant and enthusiastic people
They cheered the nominee as ho made hi
uay from the car to the platform. He said
"This Is commencing the day's work prett
early , but wo have to make up In publl
speaking and In hard work what we lacl
In dally newspapers and campaign fund
for the circulation of literature. Therefor
we have to got up earlier than our oppo
nents. and I believe that most of us ar
better acquainted with getting up early tha
they arc anyhow.
"Our opponents tell us that the tariff Issu
Is the great Issue. Until they put a pro
hlbitory tariff on foreign financial pollclc
they cannot talk tarlfT to me. ( Great ap
plause. ) I want to Impress upon your mind
that It Is not sufllclcnt to elect a presldon
who Is In favor of free coinage , bocaus
the president can do nothing until the bll
reacbc-s him , and the bill cannot reach bin
unless the senate and the house arc In fn
vor of free coinage. The senate Is In favo
of It , and the house must bo before fre
coinage can lie realized. I shall not be sat
Isficd with merely my election. I want a
congress that will give to you the free am
unlimited coinage of silver without waiting
for the aid or consent of any other nation. '
At Augusta there was another big crowt
In waiting. Mr. Hryan said : "Tho cans
wo represent Is not a new cause. There I
nothing experimental In the plan which w
propose. Wo are not trying to make th
gold or silver dollar larger or smaller. The }
are to remain the same size. Hut wo wan
more of both than wo have now. ( Applause.
When we ask that our mints shall be opei
when the people desire them open regard
less of what other nations may say or thin !
or do , wo simply restore a policy that wa
the policy of this country until silver wa
stricken down In the dark and without pub
lie discussion. Our opponents are afrali
that wo will have too much money. I an
willing to let my opponents have the vet
of every man whose experience- taugh
him to be afraid of having too much monej
If I can have the vote of every man whos
experience 1ms taught htm to fear a droutl
of money more than a llood , ( Applause.
I am glad that we are going to have mor
recruits from other parties than the demo
crats wo lose. " ( Applause. )
Osgood turned out In force to hear th
candidate , who said : "I have felt un In
teroat In the subject of bimetallism for si.
years. Before that I never thought th
money question amounted to anything
When I heard people speak of the mone >
pots or I thought they were a harmless ser
of cranks , and that there was no such thing
But the more I have studied the subjcc
the more important did the question become
and the more firmly did I become convince !
that underlying all our dllllcultlca was our
financial legislation , and that until nut
financial system was taken out of the hands
of the money changers and administered In
behalf of the people there could bo no per
manent prosperity among the American pee
ple. ( Applause. ) We have seen In this
campaign what the money power moans
We have seen banks attempt to Intimidate
the people who owe the banks , and sve have
seen this great money power reaching oul
from the money centers of the world am :
putting Its hands upon our Industries am !
threatening to close the doors of factories
and turning men out of employment unless
all mankind will boss- down and worship the
golden calf. Wo have seen an arrogance
that has seldom been paralleled.'o have
seen a tyranny not often before attempted ,
and whenever people rise to complain they
denounce them for complaining without at
tempting to take away the cause of com
plaint. In several states the republican
Idatforms have declared against agitation.
Not only against our cause , but against the
dlscugHlon of our cause. My friends , agi
tation will continue until the people have
an American llnanclal system suited to the
need * of the American people , " ( Great ap-

PIERRE , S. D. . Oct. 3. ( Special. ) It has
been asserted that the liquor dealers prefer
to have the prohibition statute remain In
force in this state , and that no fight would
bo made to carry the repeal of the prohibi
tory clau.so of the constitution at the coming
election. This docs not appear to bo the
fact of the case , as a representative of the
liquor interests from Louisville , Ky. , was
in this city Thursday and arranged for "a
local representative In this city to look after
the campaign in this portion of the state.
As n starter about 7,000 circulars were
mailed here this morning , and others will
follow througa the same agency. There Is
no question that a vigorous campaign will
bo carried on on both sides and the silver
question will not be the only one discussed
from this time to the close of the campaign.

board held a brief but entertaining Hus
sion In Mayor Cirabam's ofllco this morning ,
In the course of which Police Matron Gal
lagher was btiporticdod by Mm. Thomas ,
Hyde. The way in which the new mat
ron's salary Is to bo raised proves that ne
cessity Is of a truth the mother of Inven
tion. It was decided to lay off the vurlouii
membero of the police force for ono week
each , during the coming ten montbu , and
to apply this rebate In salaries to the pay
ment of the JL'5 per month stipend of tho-

something out of the $100 appropriation

for the purchase of disinfectants for the
city jail. It Is Maid that the cx-pollco
matron , Mrs. ( Gallagher , will KUC the city
for a balaiico of $25 per month which she
claims under the statute. The city's de
fense Is that Mrs. ( lallaghcr went to worlc
under a contract , In which It was specllcally
agreed that her remuneration was to b -
at the rate of $2,1 per month nnd no more.
