this it was known that the meeting was
under the auspices of the young mems
club and that they were working diligently
to make this the largest and most success
full meeting of the campaign thus far; nat
urally their friends were anxious to see
them succeed. They were not disappoint-
ed. Rutland has seen no such meeting,
Their for Numbers, respectability, or en-

of his address.
ABSTRACT OF GOVERNOR JEWELS REMARKS.
For the sixth time the republicans and
democrats cross swords. Once in four
years the freemeu of this country are called
| IN ar no 10
who shall, for the next four years, control
the desiinies of the country. Twenty
years ago the republican party was formed,
becauss of the condition of certain class
Of our people whom it was believed, under
our form Of government, had rights
that should be respected and
their bonds be dissolved that they might
stand up as citizens of this great republic.
The wing party, which at first composed q
large majority OF the new party, had long
been FESTIVE under the domination of the
slave power. Thus came the republican
party from the ruins of the old wing party.
Tie democratic party has remained the
same and has shown no progress, but con.
tinues the same subservient party to the
power that would enslave men, showing no
advance as the nation progressed. The
republican party fought for free soil and
the emancipation and enfranchisement of
millions of men in bondage, and both have
been accomplished through ts instrument
tality. ...,.,-
At this point the Saratoga train arrived,
bringing some three hundred republicans
} from Fairhayen, Hydeville, Castlston and
: West Rutland, who proceeded In body to
town hall and Mr.. Jewell suspended his
remarks to allow them time to be seated In
the hall. The audience room seemed al.
] most densely packed-but by crowding to-
gether large majority obtained standing
room. The band entertained the audience
with music while this process was going on.
