gigantic gigan-tic trust of tho country I I Commenting ipon this qiiolatlon j Mr Bryan said Mr McKinley complains that the Democrats not destroy the trusts when they had an opportunity and yet Mr McKinley has been President Presi-dent for three and a half years and durlug that time more trusts have been organised than fn all the history ojC the country and he has allowed three sessions

Republi can who has the courage to denounce the trust that does It WORKS IN SILVER TALK Speaking of lhe agricultural Inter est he said that the Republican party had proposed no remedies for tho evils encompassing that Industry it did not for Instance take a mathematician to demonstrate that mahematcian more money with two metals than with dne The Presidents letter of accept ance would Indicate
