THE LIBERAL RALLY
illusions of the Most Infinite
Rot.
CRACKING THE OLD CHESTNUFS
a Large Crowd Gathered. But Was Not
always in Sympathy With the
Speakers or Their Sentiments.

The Liberal rally last night at Walkers
pavilion was in fact big affair in point of
but the question will not be
settled before Monday how many of them
were Democrats. They used many and
various methods to induce the people to
come, and they came in hocks.
The F'lambeau club and the drum corps
had been busy from the close of day looking
up recruits for the meeting, be they of any
political creed, SO they came in sufficient
numbers to match the Democratic rally of
the night before. They got the crowd, but
they did not get the enthusiasm. 1t was
night and nobody had anything to
DO and so they came easily, as the idly curl
Gus ever come.
BOSS POWERS
called the meeting to order. He intro
duced young man named Van Horne as
chairman, who perpetrated himself upon
the audience for long time. He said:
Ladies and gentlemen, Liberals and all
Applause we have had defections from
our course on the part of the men of our
party, but from the ladies, never. No one
can estimate the honor | esteem it to pre-
party. The victory which is to come on
Monday, and it will come, will do more TO
glorify our party than any former victory.
I'VE hear all sorts of attacks on our
party. If they can send man into a con-
vention to create discord they do it, and
they adopt many other questionable meth

in a political party to have his salary

He then proceeded to attack the chair
man of the Democratic party, Mr.. Schroe-
der, bat the applause was so slight as to
take away any little inspiration he might
have had. When Van Horne had grown
weary along with the audience, Boss
Powers asked that
C. s. vARIAN
be called up to the stand, and then pre-
scented that gentleman with gold-headed
cane as mark of the party's esteem and
respect. In reply Mr.. Varian said: Il
desire to say in accepting this token OF
appreciation that | accept it freely and in
appreciation Of the spirit that moved those
who gave it. | do not care to discuss mat
tiers of a personal nature that actuated
/ those in giving me this beautiful present"
The speaker was here interrupted by the
entrance of the various drum corps
and their cohorts, fresh from
/ the purlieus. When bedlam had
subsidized Mr.. Varian said The stick

vention in lieu Of an absent gavel | give L

and l take in its place this beautiful cane
He then offered an invective agains
statehood and urged the people to go to The
polls.
ELMER ELLSWORTH,
a tall and somewhat ungainly looking
/ Liberal, with mouth somewhat sugges
tive of the smiling mullet, who used t.

He said: 81 would be little less than pre-
sumptuous to occupy more than few min

grave and reverend seignors here who vii
