one OF their three congressman. |
RALLYING MEETINGS
have been held tonight by both parties In all the
principal cities and towns, and the enthusiasm OF
the people stirred up for the FIRST time. The demo-
Gratis had the largest Of the two gatherings In this
city, although there was no more earnest spirit
manifested than at the republican assemblage.
Colonel John II. George, one Of the standard bearers
OF the New Hampshire democracy, was the chief
speaker, and his arraignings OF the administration
and the republican party were very cutting and elo-
quent. He alluded to the

out OF the Presidential yoke he would toss Grant
into oblivion, the same as an elephant would wor-

and the whole country would shout an approving
amen.
THE REPUBLICAN GATHERING
was addressed by John l.. Swift, OF Boston, who
alluded In eulogfstic manner to the record OF hIs
party and claimed tor It the support OF all patriots.
He averted any allusion whatever to the Sumner

COMMITTEES. One or two prominent republicans were
anxious to have the matter not only alluded 70 but
publlcans present and to obtain this series OF re-
solutions were prepared. They were brought before
the state Committee previous to the meeting and.
were strenuously opposed to their Introduction In
