Bryan Tours Kentucky Shore Speaking Tour in 1896
William Jennings Bryan spoke to large crowds in West Virginia and Kentucky after delivering a series of meetings in Charleston Covington and downtown Cincinnati. A disturbance in the Covington Music Hall was quelled as security ejected three troublemakers. Bryan argued that calls for arbitration over labor disputes and the income tax were misrepresented as attacks on the law and court. He asserted enforcement of laws and defended the party platform against railroad opposition. Watson refused interview questions. Bryan expressed confidence in victory in a Chicago Times Herald unsigned note.
