WEST WATERVILLE.
A Splendid Republican Meeting.-Captain
BOutelle.


BOutel1e.
The campaign on the part of the republi-
cans of West Watervile was auspiciously
opened Friday evening at Memorial Hall by
Hon. c. A. Boutelle. On account of fore
seeing the count out frauds of 1879 80, and of
the gallant fight by Capt. Boutelle in the
fourth district in 1880, the fusionists hate
him as the devil is supposed to hate holy
water; and as the Capt. was personally
stranger to our people, there was much Curl
os,ty to see and hear him. The audience was
the largest seen here in many years at the
opening meeting of a campaign. Capt. Bou
telle was warmly welcomed on being intro
duced by Hon. G. w. Gouldng, chairman Of
the meeting, and at once proceeded to
state the issues dividing political parties of
the State. He was cool, candid and dispas-
sionate, and held the close attention of his
hearers for over two solid hours. His forci-
bile and eloquent period in reference to Gov.
Plaisted's attempt to smite the Supreme Court
of Maine across the form of Judge Libbey.
was heartily appreciated. He spoke
but briefly on national issues-but
in plain, taking way, and at ten o'clock the
meeting closed. All who expected that Capt.
Boutelle had scloven foot" or other sem
blance of darkness. were doubtless surprised
to see so fine looking a gentleman-one, too
who can talk, as we'll as write. politically.
The meeting was most gratifying success,
and the gallant Captain expressed himself as
highly pleased with his reception here.
