A.NsulE's sCoRcHER.

the hour did not deter our citizens
from turning out in good numbers
to hear Hon. Geo Ainslie and s. II.
Hays, Esq, speak upon the impor-
tant issues Of this campaign.
At 8 o'clock the meeting was
called TO oider by Esqr. Wolfe, who
in a feeling and impressive manner
referred to the sad intelligence that
had recently reached us from Wash
tington announcing the death Of Mrs.
Harrison. wife of the president. lie
said that while the Nation truly
incurred the death Of such an Illus
trious lady, yet there was a duty
the people owed to themselves, and
that duty was for them, notwith-
standing this sudden aiiliction, to
assemble and hear discussed mat
tiers Of vital importance to their
future prosperity.
Hon. Geo. Ainslie, the old Demo
cratic war-horse of Idaho, was then
introduced amid storm Of APP
plause. He said that he was 81
years Of age and had never yet voted
for a president Of the United States,
and that his Republican friends
were very much exercised and con
doled with him upon the fact that
he could not now exercise that
right by voting for his choice
owing to the withdrawal of the
Democratic electors He babe those
very considerable Republicans not to
lose any sleep on his account, for
he realized that with three electoral
tickets in the field Idaho was sure
for Harrison, and with this belief
he gladly accepted the situation
and would cheerfully support Wea-
yer and Field, for there was nothing
so utterly abhorrent to him as the
thought Of aiding in any manner
whatever the election of Harrison
Therefore he advised all good Demo
Gratis in Idaho to stand for the
Peoples candidate for president
and defeat Harrison, the enemy Of
the poor and the friend Of the rich
only.
lie next paid his respects to Nc
Connell, the Republican candidate
for Governor, and showed that
cheeky fellow up in snch IA CHASTITY
light it caused the best Republicans
present to hang their heads with
shame, and when the name of either
Of his opponents-Burke or Crook
were mentioned big applause was
sure to follow.
The tin-plate tariff fraud was ex-
planned by Mr.. Ainslie in a manner
not heretofore touched upon by any
previous speaker here and he sent
conviction to the minds of all that
the tariff on tin-plate was a fraud
upon the American people and
solely done in the interest of CAPT.
talists. lie denounced Republican
protection as II great wrong to the
American working people and only
for the benefit of few already
millionaires
He said if the Republicans were
successful and Mr.. Harrison took
his seat in the White House, the
force bill would become reality
with all its dire and mendaciou
consequences. When once fastened
upon Us its party advantage will
not be readily surrendered although
its injustice may be fully demon
strated. The Republicans avoid
discussing the force bill, yet deep
down in their hearts they are earn
estly working for its enactment,
and it is the duty of all fair-mindad
men to do their very utmost 10 pre-
vent such an outrage being perpe-
trated upon a freedom-loving peo-
pie
Mr. Ainslie concluded his inter
esting and able remarks by earn
estly advising his hearers to support
tho Peoples Party electors and
John NJ Burke and the remainder
of the Democratic ticket-that right
might prevail and victory be ours
He retired amid prolonged applause.
s. IL. Hays, Democratic nominee
for joint Representative from Ada
and Elmore, then took the stand,
and sad that as the hour was late
his remarks would be very brief
He discussed State matters prinoi.
pally, dwelling mostly upon the out
RACES perpetrated upon the people
of North Idaho by Governor Wiley,
the Republican State administra-
ton and Car Curtis, who is their
candidate for Secretary Of State.
He said that Gov Wiley acted
illegally in declaring martial law
and was liable to indictment and
punishment for his crime. Mr.
HAYS made good impression here
and gained many friends by his
appearance. In company with II.
p. Chattin he departed for Rocky
Bar last Thursday morning where
we bespeak for him generous
welcome.
