THE RALLY TONIGHT.
Hon. James C. Blaine and Gen. Gibson
az City Hall.

The Republicans of Portland will be favor
ed with an evening of rare enjoyment at Olty
Hall tonight. Hon. James G.. Blaine VIII
make his opening speech of the campaign
which, in itself, will be sufficient to crowd inc
hall to its utmost capacity. AS public speaker
Mr.. Blaine has few equals. Joined to per-
feet command of his subject is a dash and brii-
liancy that always holds his hearers captive
Nor as a stump speaker alone is he exceeding
ly strong. His eulogy on Garfield stamped
him as an orstor worthy of comparison Win
the greatest in any country. The interests al
stake in the coming election are of such impoF-
lance that it is we'll that one like Mr.. Blaine
possessed of thorough and intimate kno"l-
edge of all the issues involved, is able to place
them clearly before all the voters of this coun-
try. 1t is certain that not only will our clti-
zens be present in great numbers but also large
delegations from the neighboring towns, all OIL
whom desire to benefit themselves and at the
same time do honor to man who has SO con-
spicuously aad perfectly represented them IN
the national councils.
Gen. Gibson will be remembered as the gen.
tleman who, two years ago, in City Hall sway
cd dis audience as he wished for some TWO
hours without sign of WEAKNESS. He IS one
of the best speakers ever heard in the state,
and will renew the good impression he created
at that time.
Chandler's Band will favor their hearers
with their delightful music which, in itself, is
a rich treat. That many ladies will grace the
galleries is forgone conclusion. The meeting
toniehs will be one of which every Republican
will feel proud. Hon. George W. Woodman
has kindly consented to ofioiate as presiding
officer. The speaking will commence at 8
o'clock.
