Drujrgfst, 387 South I leorit hlruut. nuvj ue out so oiu, oi now me ticket was named and the platform adopted. But when I studied it for myself I saw It was a second Declaration of Independence. When I studied the candidate I became satisfied that that convention made no mlstak In the selection of a leader. "Mr.

Bryan seems to have, been raised up for this emergency. His magnetism Sill overcome all prejudice. His sincerity and honesty cannot be questioned. His ability Is conceded. I confess that so far In all his speeches I have not detected a mistake.

(A voice: He don't make any.) Tho general said he did not propose to enter into a discussion of the currency question but he did want to point out one thing. He did It thus: "In 1877 the same year when Tilden was cheated out of the presidency the Republicans of T'ennsyl vania adopted a platform In hich they favored an unrestricted coinage of silver. I see worklngmon discuss this question. Probably some of their gold antagon'sts corner them and I want to call attention to the fact that the Republicans in this state once declared iu stronger terms than the Chicago platform for free coinage of silver." A right good cheer greeted E. Zleg ler when Chairman Black introduced him as the next speaker.

lie also bpgun by alluding to the pro priety of confining his remarks to a speech of congratulation. He said It was a splen did demonstration and the auditorsagreed with him, for a number cried back, "You bet it is." Referring to the pictures on the ban ners he asked, "What do you think of tbe man?" "He's the boy." was the prompt reply. At another time some one called. We'll elect him." Mr. Zlegler said that McKlnley's only hope in this campaign Is in campaign soap, lie agreed with General Heiges that the man for the occasion had ar rived.

"Mr. Bryan," he said, "goes to ee the people. McKinley stops at home and tries to put protection above anything else. He admits there Is something wrong, everybody admits that, and says is because we havo not enough tariff. Does he not know that under tho Wilson bill as much revenue is raised as under the bill that bore his name? If tbe income tax had not been de clared unconstitutional there would be more than enough revenue to run the eovernraent.

Mr. McKinley savs he is for sound money; that is a catching phrase that Jccoivis no one. Tho Republican party an not be for sound money because the tandard they say must be maintained is unjust and ruinous. I believe in our candidate for presi dent re have a man as strong as Jackson and as wise as Thomas Jefferson and Samuel J. Tilden.

And he will beelected." In conclusion Mr. Ziegler said: "Read, study and reflect." He spoko of the "free-for-all" stand in tho square and highly endorsed "The Democracy," he said "started this 'free-for-all'" because It Is not afraid of these questions. Captain Frank Geise, of whom the chairman said, "a man whoso voice been lifted almost daily since campaign opened in advocacy of betterment of tho people," was has the the the next speaker. Tbo captain leaves to-day for St. Louis, where he goes to represent Pennsylvania as one of the delegates-at-Iarge to the convention of the National Association of Democratic clubs.

He said he wanted to speak of several things outside of the silver question, but which bear directly upon It. "There are two classes In the country to-dav," he declared, "which are antagonistic, and it is idle to claim that under one party's banner walk all who favor while under the other walk all who favor the freedom of the masses. The Chicago platform calls for a just system of taxation; one that docs not lay all the burden on tbo laboring man. It asks that wealth bo made to pay a just proportion for tLo protection It receives. "Another thing: This is no longer a government ot the people, Dy tne peopie and for the people.

It is a government of the trusts and syndicates, for tbe trusts and syndicates and by the trusts and syndicates. You got a fair exhibition of this this fall In the rise in tbe price of coal brought about bv the coal trust of which Mr. Uobart the Republican candidate for vice president is the head and front." The captain proved how all men who get rich do so through the labor of those who work for them, and continued: "There Is only one manufacturing establishment In York today that Is closed down, and that one was closed by the Diamond Match syndicate. All syndicates are for the gold standard. (A voice: Yes, but they're not lng to win.) 'If ever freedom perishes from American soil; if ever you will tall into the condition of the European laborer you will have no one to blame but yourself.

It ill be because you permit yourself to be li into the ballot box to vote according to the dictates of a Mark Hanna. For years labor has been looking for a Most. You have him now. For your own wel fare and the welfare of your wife and ta nilly listen to the voice of that man and in November next resist the forcn of bribery and intimidation and cast your illot for William J. Bryan." FOOT BALL CAl'TUKED.

The Collejt 1 Students Have Trouble With Mr. llttiniecke. Wedm slay afternoon whilst the Y. C. I.

Football team was engaging in Its daily practice one of tbe members kicked tbe football into William Henneckn's yard, on the opposite side of the alley. W. Root, one of the team, attempted to get the ball by climbing tbe fence but was attacked by Mr. Hennecke, who threw a hatchet atbim, but it hie another young boy who was standing near by on tho foot. The team offered to pay bounty for the return of ball, but to this he would not consent, saying they had not paid for the windows they had broken.

The students claim these windows have been paid for twice over already. They also say this Is not the only lime Hennecke has kept the balls, but has made it a practice the past three years. Bucklen's Arnica Salve. The Best Salve in the world for Cuts Bruises. Sores, Ulcers, Salt Rhenm.

Ernie's Grove Camp Directors Look For a Sew Sit-. About thirty persons composed tbe party who with the board of control' of the Eralg's Grovo Campmeetlng association, Inspected all the groves Tuesday along the line of the Western Maryland railroad, from Maple Grove, In Carroll county, Maryland, to York, with a view to relocating on the tine ot that road. The party left York at and returned at noon. They wel-e iflet at Maple Grove by a number of Baltimore people. The board Maple Grove, Miller's, Liheboro, Smith's, or Bollinger's, and Smyser's.

Of these, the groves at Smith's, Smyser's and Liueboro created the most favorable Impression upon the visitors. Some generous-offers havo been made. Maple Grove, one uf the most beautiful groves the people of the community offered to donate to tho association If It will locate there. The only drawback to this location is, It is a little too far from York. Rev.

J. R. Hutchinson and Rev. C. T.

Stearn, of York, and Rev. A. II. Rice, of Baltimore, have been appotnted as a committee to tind cut the prices of the properties which were given favorable consideration, and If a place can be secured on reasonable terms, the camp will likely be re-located, and the burnt out grounds lienr Emigsville will be offered for sale. If a site on tho Western Maryland rail road cannot be secured at a reasonable price, the h.

tention Is to open up again on thfi old grounds. Whether the association decides to re-locate or to re-occupy their old grounds at Eralg's Grove, the boarding house, tabernacle and cottages will be more modern and better than ever. The association has every encouragement and reason to believe that the camp that will commence on the first Friday in August, 1397, will be the largest one ever held by them. An impression prevails in certain quar ters that the association Is not satisfied with the treatment received In the past from the Northern Central authorities, hence the desire upon their part to relo cate. This is absurd.

It is because the association hopes it might be for its test interests financially and spiritually that it Is considering the subject of relocating. This Is authentic, as it comes from one who has been and is intimately connected with thi Jiiffairs of the association. Tho members of the board of control who were on the trip yesterday were: President C. T. Stearn, Superintendent A.

The Committee Narrows Down to a Few Bidders and Shows lis Pre ioreuCo For One ot These The Separate System Will Probably fie Adopted. Tbe Highway committee considered the matter ot a general sewerage system almost exclusively at last evening's weekly session. Action wis taken, which while not determining the preliminary problems confronting tho committee, tended toward the adoption of the separate system of surface drainage and house sewerage; and toward the retention of Alexander Potter, a New York engineer, who appeared before tho committee. It took a good deal of consideration to overcome the Indecision of the committee to even that extent, and the fact that there was a very full attendance all the members but Mr. Lafean being present-had something to do with bringing matters toward a head.

Tho compromise between those who opposed further procrastination and those who feared action taken now might not give the best results, was to lay the matter over for one week more. Last evening's meeting was a very tir ing affair. A good deal of it was devoted to the reading of correspondence from the engineers who have applied for the work, possibly twenty-five in number. Besides submitting bids, many of them went Into details concerning the proposition and several' had supplementary communications upon thecharacter, expense and serviceability of the two systems, the combined and the separate. By tbe time Clerk Boeckel had read through all these the members were thoroughly confused and as far as ever from a decision as to whose services to accept.

Some of the englners offered to make tho necessary plans for hundred dollars. Others went up to almost as many thousand. Several wanted to be paid by tho mile and their offers ranged from $15 up to 1100 Another wanted to bo paid according to the cost of tho sewers which his plan would provide. Three bids which were rather favorably considered were those of Alexander Potter, Joseph L. WIckes, former Yorker, and a Lebanon man named Cruwell.

Mr. Potter's bid was the lowest of these, being a iittlo over half, of what Mr. Wickes asked. What gained a favorable Impression for these bids was tbe fact that both tho Cruwell and WIckes offers were accompanied by lucid and somewhat detailed communications on Ihesubjoctof sewers; and Mr. Potter was present himself and gave an instructive talk on the same subject.

Both Mr. Wickes and Mr. Potter rec ommended the separate system, but Mr. Potter advised. that neither system be adopted exclusively, as it mUht bo fouud advisable to put in the single system in part In some portions of the city.

In the motion to lay the matter over for a week, which was offered by Mr. Hoff. Mr. Schwenk incorporated the suggestion that the clerk ascertain further concerning tho ability of Mr. Potter and report at next week's meeting.

Clerk Boeckel reported tho balances remaining In tbo committee's funds to be: General fund, crossings, Ml 89; Duke street, $103.00 INDUSTKIAL NOTES- New Notes Collected In the Manu-liirturliiil KntabllshmenlH.

A Ine Procession That Preceded tbe Ceremonies Was the Best Appear' ln, Most Enthusiastic and Largest One of the Campaign Speeches ly ere Black, E. D.

Zlegler and Cap- nln Frank Gelse. The elements were a deal more consid erate of the wishes of the members of the Young Men's Democratic society last night, and the handsome Bryan and Sew- all banner was swung to the breeze In weather that was just perfect for a pollt ileal demonstration. It was just cool enough to make marching a pleasure and there was just enough breeze blowing to carry off the smoke of the fireworks and torches. With such favorable condl nions mere couia not help being a mighty turn-out. The demonstration was a credit to every man that participated In It and a compliment to the Young men's Democratic society, in honor of whose banner It was given.

It looked a great deal more like a political parade made than any so far by either party. There was more music, more Illumination and more uniforms. Better marching order was maintained and the enthusiasm was lept up with more spirit. Ex-Sheriff John D. Gallatin was chief mars hall and he was attended by a number of representatives of the clubs In line.

These aides were also on horseback. The formation of the parade was as fellows: Chief Marshal and Aids. Band. Sixth Ward Club. Seventh Ward Club.

Citizens and Horsemen. After tramping over the route arranged the paraders countermarched in front of the Young Men's Democratic Society headquarters. While this was being done an elaborate display of fireworks was given from the awning over the pavement. A speakers "staDd had been erected In front of the club rooms, and this and the front of the building were tastefully decorated. It was to this stand that the immense crowd nest turned Its attention.

Vice President Samuel Gallatin opened the meeting ana Introduced Jere S. Black, who was to be chairman. Mr. Black, who has a good voice, and makes a striking appearance on a speakers' stand, said before introducing th) speaker of the evening: Fellow Citizens: It is with very great pleasure that I will preside over this meeting tonight. The size and appear-aoco of this gathering show that the Democrats of York appreciate the importance of the matters at Issue In this campaign.

The Democratic party has from the beginning stood for equal rights to all persons and classes, for a strict construction of the constitution and for an impartial administration of the laws. The Democratic party has always declined to privilege a few at the expense of the many. And from the beginning tbe Democrats and Democratic leaders have been attacked by the enemy in the same manner and the same way as they are today, It Is not a new thing to hear the candidate of the Democratic party called an Anarchist and a lunatic. The political history of this country shows that every man who has come to the front demanding that the Democratic people shall have theirrights have been honored by epithets of the same kind. 1 say honored, because to be maligned by the enemies of the government by the people and for the people, la the utuiittsb piuul uf tuau liuu tati't-otism.

William Jennings Bryan stands tor the rights of the people, and therefore no slander is too atrocious to ba uttered bv thoie who have nominated Mark llama in the name of McKinley. Mark Manna, the friend of the corporations and the trusts: Mark Hanna, the protected manufacturer; Mark Hanna, the rich and powerful enemy of organized labor. Mark Hanna and his fattened followers say- that the pejple shall not have free silver because such as they prefer the gold standard. Although they are few in number compared with the great multitude who are clamoring for free silver because they need It, yet they assure ns that with the money they have they will change the sentiment, that is, they will buy our votes. But thev are wrong, verv wrong.

They have foold the people so often that they think they can do it forever; butthey cannot do it this time. On November 3. next, we will elect to ti presidency that just and fearlos friend if tb people. WI liara Jennings Bryan. We will overwhelm not only our open enemies, who call themselves Kepubll-cans, but also their treacherous allies, who call themselves Gold Democrats or National Democrats.

Thev have fraudulently misnamed themselves; they should call themselves the Assistant Republican party. The Palmer and Buckncr ticket is a monumental fraud, invented as a shield for those who are at heart fi Hanna and McKinley, but shrink from openly avowing it. These Assistant Republicans are digging their own graves, wide and deep, and on the third of November next we will take great pleasure in covering them over forever. General George W. Heiges has been on the stump favoring sound Democracy for thirty years, as he himself said last night, and a description of his manner of talking and his appearance on the stand Is entirely unnecessary.

It is sufficient to say that he was at his best and made a hort address that took the people by storm. He commenced by saying that the occasion seemed to be more for the purpose of congratulations for the banner which had Just been swung to the breeze; a banner emblematic of that which the people have been working and talking for, and which they will vote for. "On the banner," said the general, "are the portraits of the standard bearers, who represent what you all desire a government of the people, for the people and by the The speaker referred to the curb-stom arguments constantly going on as an Indication that the plain people are taking a hand in the settlement of one of the greatest economic questions.
