the greetings given him since his return from his tour of the world his arival in the city provoked a great outburst of acclamations from thousands of barchers marchers mar chers and yet maro thou sande on the his reception at the armory tonight where he addressed a crowd of people was nothing less than a volcanic eruption of enthusiasm although tho attend ance of southern notables was smaller than at farst expected on account oe mr bryans recent acceptances of numerous from other southern cities still the masa meeting at ate armory was a representative southern graced by the kentucky leaders of democracy a number af democrats from othern states and a great mass of citi zens from kentucky and indiana mr bryan was welcomed to kentucky by his opponent henry watterson who presided over the meeting the other speakers preceding mr brynn were senator carmack of tennessee the south and sen ator W T stone of missouri who introduced trod the guest of honor when mr bryan entered the hall leaning on the arm of mr watterson there was a demonstration that lasted ten minutes thousands of flags being waved in unison with the surges of cheers that swept over the throng As soon as the noise had subsided mr watterson began his address of iv elcome mr watterson spoke in part as follows there Is but one paramount issue for the next presidential battle and that Is the rescue of the government from hands that have misused and debauched 4 and its restoration to th custody of the politic but sovereign people the parties to it are upon the one hand a standing army of trained politicians held together not alone by the cohesive power of the public patronage but by a community of interest as unyielding as it Is unthinking richly caparisoned caparison ed in all the pan aply of successful war and on the other hand the mass and body of those who hew the wood and draw the water i and pay taxes unskilled and widely separated often groping in the dark sometimes misdirected by divided counsels always lacking the resource by which results are reached and dangers aurnel but never yet united except to conquer it Is veteran troops against the raw ml llla an unequal though not a bootless array as many well fought fields in days of old bear witness give us but half the discipline of the regulars and a aitho of their equipment and we shall drive them before ua across the barricades of though led by theodore roosevelt himself 1 I recognize as our chieftain in this approaching conflict the hon i jennings bryau of 1 it costs hip no sacrifice eithier of personal preference or pride oc opinion to make this declaration mr ran and I 1 have not always agreed as to the mean wo have never als agreed as to the end the appeal to the moral nature of the people which he has made with so much eloquence and power J was making when he was a boy he grew tp manhood under my teaching if at mes have raised the warning fange r of the schoolmaster even threatened the rod he waa pig enough and old enough and good looking cuoghi to stand it and to survive it and has thrived in spite of it maybe by rca son of it and lias quite outgrown it J too have lived and learned apace and one of the things I 1 have learned has been to look more to the objective point and less to non essentials in matters of difference to agree to disagree with my comrades and friends on great occasions and on great occasions and in great affairs to send all minor differences to the rear the better to march abreast against the common enemy I 1 we purpose to reform not to revolutionize lut ionize the government we puri pose to establish reestablish re democratic institutions in the national capital returning to the voters what belongs to alio voters we purpose to drive from the floor of the senate those who sit there not as servants of the people but as corporation counsel we to drive from the finor of the houie the speaker and hl rules committee who have made an autocracy of which was created a legislative body in a word we purpose to readjust the logt balance between tho people and their lawmakers 4 our jury is the nation our proof the record of the republican party our witness theodore roosevelt our attorney mr bryan of nebraska mr Watter song speech touched oft the pent up enthusiasm almost at the start and when at the close ho pointed to mr bryan and said beje he is god bless him and give him wisdom the audience yelled for alve minutes mr watterson finally command ed alence long enough to introduce senator carmack of tennessee senator carmack was followed by senator W J stone of missouri who in a few words introduced mr bryan the demonstration that greeted mr bryan on his entrance to the hall was renewed as he nebraskan arose to speak mr bryan announced that ho would read a statement concerning topic which bad been generally discussed since he had touched on it during his speech at new york lie then read his statement which is in part as follows j in my speech at the new york reception I 1 made some remarks condren ing the government ownership af rail ways and I 1 thought that I 1 had expressed myself so clearly that my po mitlon could not be misconstrued even by those who desired to misconstrue it the new york speech was prepared in advance it was not only written but it was carefully devised le it stated exactly what I 1 wanted to state and I 1 have nothing to withdraw or modify in the statement therein made what I 1 say tonight is rather in the nature of an elaboration af pf tho ideas therein presented after quoting from the democratic platform of 1900 that a private monopoly is indefensible and intolerable and after laying it down as a principle that public ownership should begin where competition ends and that tho people should have the benefit of any monopoly that might bo found necessary I 1 stated eliat I 1 had reached the conclusion that railroads partake so much of the nature of a monopoly that they must ultimately become public pi and bo managed by public officials in the interests of the whole community I 1 added 1 I do not know that the country is ready for this mcgl J lotion 1 do not know that the majority of my own party favors it but I 1 believe that an increasing number of the members in all parties fre in pub lie ownership a sure remedy for dl crimination between persons ami places and for the extortionate lates for the carrying of freight and passengers 1 I then proceeded to outline ci system ot public ownership whereby tho advantages of public ownership might be secured to the people without tho dangers of centralization this system contemplates federal ownership of the trunk lines only and the ownership of local lines by the ral states I 1 further expressed it as my that the railroads themselves were responsible for the growth of the sentiment in favor of public ownership and said that while I 1 believe that the rato bill recently enacted should i be given a fair trial we might expect j to see the railroads still more active in politics unless our experience with them differed from the experience we bad had with franchise holding corporations ahls statement of my views i has been assailed by some as an at tempt to force the upon tho democratic party and by some as an announcement of my intention to in alst upon the incorporation of these alens in the next democratic platform let me answer these two charges I 1 have tried to make it chear that I 1 i expressed my own opinion and I 1 havo never sought to compel the acceptance of my opinion by anyone else reserving the right to do my thinking I 1 respect the right of everyone else to do his thinking I 1 have too much confidence in the independent thought in my own party to expect that lany considerable number of democrats would acknowledge my right to do their thinking for them even if I 1 were undemocratic enough to assert such a right if you ask me whether the question of government will be an issue in the campaign of I 1 answer that I 1 do not know if you ask me whether it ought to be in the platform I 1 reply that I 1 cannot stell until I 1 know what the democratic voters think upon the subject it the democrats believe that the next platform should contain a plank for government ownership then that plank ought to be included if the democrats think it ought not to contain such a plank then such a plank ought not to be included it rests with the party to make the platform and individuals cannot advise I 1 have spoken for myself and for myself only and I 1 did not know how the suggestion would bo received I 1 am now prepared to confess to you that U has been received more favorably than I 1 expected there is this however that I 1 do expect namely that those democrats who oppose government ownership will accompany belr declaration against it with the assertion that they avor government ownership whenever they are convinced that the country must choose between government ownership of the roads and railroad ownership of the government J still advocate strict regulation and shall rejoice if experience lioves that that regulation can bo made effective fec tive I 1 will go farther than that anji say I 1 believe we can have more i regulation under a democratic administration a democratic senate and house than we are likely to have under a republican administration with a republican senate and house and yet I 1 would not bo honest with you if I 1 do not frankly dmit that observation has convinced me that no such emcie nt regulation possible and that government own can be undertaken on the plan outlined ith less danger to the coun j 17 than is involved in private owner shap as we have had it or as we are to have it among the reasons that have led me to believe that we must in the end look to government ownership for relief I 1 shall mention two or three first and foremost is the corrupting influence of the railroad in politics when the president following the democratic platform plat foam insisted upon regulation he was met with the opposition of the railroads and every point gained in favor of the people was gained after a strenuous fight 1 I have no idea that the railroads are going to permit regulation without a struggle and I 1 fear that their anu ence will be strong enough to very much delay if it does not entirely de feat remedial legislation another reason which has led me to favor government ownership is the fact that the people aro annually plundered of an enormous sum by extortionate torti onate rates that places are discriminated against and individuals driven out of business by favoritism shown by the railroads you say that all these things can be corrected without interference with private ownership I 1 shall ba glad ac
