Boston, Sept. 3.-Speaker Reed was the guess
this afternoon and evening of the Boston Repno-
icans and their welcome to him on his way home
to take part in the closing work Of the Maine cam
vass was one of unstinted cordiality and cnthusi-
Mr.. Reed had not originally intended to
stop of in Boston, much less to make a formal
speech on the issues of the approaching political
campaign, but earnest the desire OF the
leading Republicans here to give some public ex-
preston of their appreciation of the record made
during the year by the House OF Representatives
under Mr.. Reeds sklful and courageous leader
ship that the State Committee prevailed upon him
to spend night in town and jointly with Repre-
sentative Lodge to address mass-meeting In
Faneuil Hall. The Massachusetts, campaign has
not yet opened and the is still early for
indoor night speaking, but the gathering to meet
the Speaker in the famous old hall in the North
End was an exceptionally large and representative
one. Its enthusiasm unbounded and every
reference, even the most indirect, TO the policy
enforced by the Speaker and sustained by the
House of Representatives during the last eight
months was received with the heartieSt and most
pronounced applause. As Mr. Lodge neatly put
it in his closing speech. the Republicans of Boston
were justly proud Of the man who had stood az
the head Of the line in all the great work done by
Congress since last December, aud they rightly
considered the opportunity to express their salts
faction over the splendid results ACCOMPLISHED
under the Speakers leadership as an occasion
altogether worthy of Faneu Halls best traditions.
