RALLY At RIVERSIDE


RIVERSIDE, Aug. 30.--t Special Good
Tcmplar's hall was filled this evening with
a large and enthusiastic audience winch
listened to stirring addresses. Mr..
Engiev Hanson presided over the meeting.
Prof. Cook was the first
speaker and confined himself
almost exclusively to the discussion of ma
tiona issues. In mastery manner he
presented the tariff question, enforcing his
telling points with facts and figures Of a
conclusive character Prof. Cook was
greeted with frequent applause, and his
eloquent address made deep impress
sion'upon his hearers He was followed
bv Hon. q. A. Tuell.
In opening MIR. Tuell explained briefly
the workings of the Australian ballot law
He then passed to consideration of State
finances, a snbject which he handled with
much ability He reviewed the magnlti-
cent record of the Republican party in its
administration of State affairs showed
clearly the great reduction IN state
taxation which had been brought about
under its wise rule.
Mr. Tuell then made veryeffectivc com
parison between the handling of State
finances under Republican rule and the
finances of the city of Waterville-Mr.
Johnsons home-under Democratic rule.
Showing that while the public burdens
imposed by the State have been
decreased more than 80 per cent, those i'm
posed by the city of Waterville have in
creased about 30 per cent, inside of four
wears. Mr.. Tuel made it very evident that
there is ample room for Mr.. johnson to
begin and continue his career as
financial reformer at home and
among his Democratic brethren.
This was Mr.. .TuelI's first appearance as d
campaign speaker and the excellent succes-
that attended his effort proved that the
Republican party will hereafter have in hin
a most effective speaker.
