The vast crowd assembled in the Fair
Grounds, after dinner, and Judge R. K.
WALTON introduced the speakers in a
manner worthy of the occasion, which
is saying good deal for IL.
General RICE was the first presented.
His speech chiefly related to the subject
Of free elections, and was animated,
clear and convincing. In the latter part
Of his speech he addressed himself to
the soldiers. and there was no brave
soldier on the ground whose heart was
not touched by the thrilling words
coming from comrade who had lost q
leg and received three other terrible
wounds, for his country.
Next appeared the magnificent
physique Of General EwIss His speech
was grand one, aud its obvious effect
upon the audience was most remarkable.
His statements Of facts were supported
by unimpeachsble authorities, and bis
arguments we're conclusive. At times he
was grandly eloquent and reused the
people as did the bugle-horn Of Roderic
Gen. Warner followed in Q mastery
speech, iuterspersed with telling anec-
dotes, and closed with the crowd yelling
for him to 60 on.
In the meantime Hon. Charles Rec.
melin, at q distant part Of the grounds,
was addressing mass meeting of Ger,
mans In their own language. Those
who heard and could understand the Ian
guage speak Of it in the highest terms Of
praise. He was introduced by Mr. Mi
chael Hoeffler.
All the speakers fairly outdid them
selves. The multitude, the banners, th'
music had 6lled the crowd with enthusi
asm, and this inspired the speakers. Th'
second Tuesday in October will shov
that rarely, II ever. in the State has
mass meeting been productive of sucl
good results.
