He spoke for thirty minutes to near three thousand people and every min ute of tbe speech was full of interest, closely followed by the audience pack ed in front of the stand- When the Bryan special pulled into the Southern yards a few minutes past 6 the people" who bad gathered to hear him crowd ed in to get a first look at the honored guest, and at the first tight give a yell of welcome. Mr Bryan was met by the local reception committee and as he came out of the rear car he was munching the last cf an apple which he seemed loath to give up. But a few steps brought him tq the speakers stand where he as presented by Mr L T Hartsell in a gem of an introduce tory. 1 he ever ready Bryan began at once, and for thirty minutes talked facts to his interested audience. The Concord Speech. Mr Bryan was in splendid form, his voice was a bit huky but it lost nothing of its power and force and every one heard distinctly the speech. Mr Bryan began by acknowledging the complimentary introductory of Mr Hartsell, which referred to his having been received by crowned heads of Europe. He stated that he had met same of the European ulers, but pre ferred by far the uncrowned Americans ho would stand no crown. -"There is no county like the united states, Mr Bryan declared, "and none offer such opportunities." He referred to the problems we must deal with and said he trusted these would be solved to our best interest He declared for the old Democratic doctrine of equal rights to all and special privilege to none - He charged extravagance en pie Republicans, charged them with Uowing these expenses ro grow tin- . necessarily. His brief reference indi rectly to the injustice of the tariff and its indirect ,tax brought Dim to the subject of taxation, which received the majr.r part of his, allotted time. He mentioned the income tax. 4 Spoke of jthe attempt to get it as law and how the measure failed to pass the Supreme fcourt after such a fight to get it that far. "Every tax is- an income tax," declared Mr Bryan, "it is'paid from the income and the man with the large income does not pay in propor- tion to the man witn the small tn come." The tax on whiskeyand to bacco was used as an apt . illustration. Mr Bryan declared that the poor man under Republican policy ' paid ' the greatest per centage of, tax and receiv ed the smallest protection. ' The army vas used as an illustration.' - The poor an does not need or want ita proteo on. "Who ever heard of the army jing called out td 'protect any one her than the large corporations?" Wed Mr Bryan, using this as an ample' of who gets the benefit and otection, the large coporations who r aa little tax as possible. He said the Republicans believe a ; a blessing, therefore the more the ter. He admired that the laboring a got more in America, but de ed that he gave more than in any er country. ' le said the Republican policy was divide the prosperity among the and trust that few to divide with e working people. He spoke in i orpf shorter hours, that the work t people may have more time for for home and faml!, fjr tl r jvement, that the people tr 1 ; Makes , a Great Speech of better informed on. public questions His idea is a happy people rather than a rich people; prosperity and content ment for all, against large and un natural prosperity for a few favored ones. He spoke of the trusts, and spoke of how without these it would be possible for one man to save his money and get a start in business but this is impossible with amassed money in the hands of the trust. Mr Bryan stated that he is a conser vative, that what tea - years ago was considered radical is today thought conservative. He referred to some accomplishments of President Roose veit and nis best endeavors being in line with sound Democratic doctrine, He said that the Democratic party would not promise "that you can go into the pocket of your fellowman, but does promise to keep the other fellow out of yours." 1 he trust is a conspiracy against liberty as well as sgainst consump tion," said Mr. Bryan, and further de claied that the Republicans did not promise to break 'up the trust, but only to restrain and regulate. In his Charlotte speech he said that a few of the big men at the head of the trust put in prison would set a good example and dissolve the trusts. In closing his Concord rpeech he made an appeal for the election of Mr Hackett to congress. "If Mr Hackett is elected he will be there to aid the President in his reform work.. Much is heard of Mr Roosevelts great re form work and he needs, such men as advance Democrats to back him up." The crowd cheered lustily at his reference to Mr Hackett and at the conclusion of Mr Bryans' speech a great call for Hackett arose from the crowd. Finishing his speech the "Great Commoner" made his way to the train and called Mrs Bryan to the reafef the car. Mr Bryan was accompanied by a number of prominent North Caroli nians: Governor Glenn, Senators Sim mons and Overman, Mr Hackett, Mr T F Kluttz and numbers of others were in the Bryan party. There were a dozen or more ladies on the train and Mrs Bryan received close attention and many courtesies throughout the trip. At Charlotte the party was given an oration, then taken to the Manufac turers Club where supper was served. The speaking wu at Vance Park, where Mr Bryan spoke for more than an hour.

New York, Sept 19. Democrats of this state, from present indications, will nominate William R Hearst, of the Independent League, for governor of New York at the Buffalo convention which meets September 25th. In yesterday's primaries Hearst showed a remarkable strength. Syracuse and Buffalo elected delegates friendly to him. Leader Murphy, of Tammany, is overwhelmingly defeated. Mayor MeLelland says the unit rule will prevail at the covention, which means that the delegates will be for Hearst if he saya so. Leaders not friendly to Murphy say that he may throw his strength to some one else than Hearst. Thus far Murphy has expressed no choice, but says that Jerome is not the man to beat Higgins with. The op position to Odell was victorious, which means that Higgins can have the nomination if he desires it. Taft Has Reached Havana. Havana, Sept. 19 Secretary Taft and party arrived here on the Des Moines at 2 o'clock this morning. It is said that there nac been a serious hitch in the peace negotiations.

Il.ioois Committeeman ia Inditnaot Over Newspaper Story, Which, He Says, Is a Lie Out of Whole ClothBailey Comes Back at Sullivan. Chicago, Sept'. 19 Roger Sullivan, national committeeman of the Demo cratic party from Illinois, is angry be cause of the publication in the Chi cago papers of an interview in which Sullivan is made to say that if he is read out of the party because he is con nected .vith the Ogden Gas Co., then Senator Bailey, of Texas, should be treated similarly, because Bailey is interested in the Standard Oil Com pany. The story went out and Bailey came back in a hot reply last night and said that if Sullivan said what be was re ported saying then Bryan was right in saying he is unfit to serve as a na'ional committeeman. When Sullivan read the article of the Texas senator he declared that he had been misrepresented and misquot ed, denying the statement attributed to him by the papers. 'The first thing I will do," said Sullivan, "is to ,end Bailey a telegram telling him the story is a lie out of the whole cloth." TERRORISTS GET ACTIVE.
