It was nearl "v o'clock when the party reache ;he Music hall, when the crow greeted him uproariously. Mr Bryan said in part: "I want to assure you in th leginning that mv happiness lor lot depend upon any honor whic :he people of this nation can cor, fer; neither do I believe that thi lution's happiness or welfare de lends upon any one person. A n politics, as in the army, th generals get the glory an<i th irivates do the work.
