Hon., Ignatius Donnelly addressed
one of the largest public meetings held
in Princeton for years, last Friday eve:
ming, at Jesmer's Hall. Long before s
o'clock, the hour advertised for the
meeting, the hall was densely crowded,
and scores were unable to gain admit
lance. Many ladies were present. OF
course, the majority of the audience
were not associated with the People,
PartY-but they all wanted to hear
Donnelly speak. AS a stump speaker
Mr.. Donnelly has no equal in the State.
1t makes but little difference to him
what side of a question he takes, he
never lacks for. words to express his
ideas. His speech, on Friday evening,
was simply a re-hash of what DR.. E..
W. Fish had said at the Fair Grounds
two or three weeks since. Donnelly,
however, is a more effective speaker
than DR.. Fish. Mr.. Donnelly did not
spare either of the old parties, and he
roasted Jim Hill and his lieutenants,
Mike Doran and Pat Kelly, to turn.
He told how Mr.. Hill had contributed
$4,000 to the Cleveland corruption
fund and how he (HilI) guzzled cham
payne and went catching with Grover
last summer. Knute Nelson also re-
ceived share of the Sage's attention.
Like Dr.. Fish, Mr.. Donnelly told of the
evils under which this country was
grooming, and like DIR. Fish he sug-
gested no practical remedy Referring
to the tariff, the speaker ridiculed the
idea that the tariff was the paramount
issue before the people. The fact Of
the matter is, Mr.. Donnelly always was
and is to-day pretty good protection
ist himself. His remarks made no new
converts, but his large audience en-
joyed his two hours discourse.
