ing campaign song. and slso with song
70 the ladies, Senator Charles Gibson made
his hrst appearance belore ST. Mary's
County Mass Meeting, and by Mr. Dens
was appropriately introduced TO his an
dience. The Senator prefaced his remarks
with an eloquent and feeling tribute 10 two
honored S. Mary's ccuntians who sat
before him, fools b g. Harris and John
Il. sothoronl and then argued the questions
Of the day in captivating and telling
manner. He gave the history of the con-
test for the removal of tariff oppression,
telling how, when In 1885, Mr. Cleveland
became President, the government living
honestly and economically within iis
income. accumulated an enormous surplus
thereby demonstrating 10 what great extent
burdens were imposed upon the people
beyond government needs; rehearsed how
Mr.. Cleveland In his famous message pro-
posed 10 reducs this Surplus by allowing
the people to retain for their own use ths
money unneceasarily wrung from them By
tariff exactions, and clearly sxposed the
fallacy Of the stock proiecsionist argumsnss.
He compared the tariff TO the vampire
which sucks the life blood Of iss sleeping
victim, who ell unconscious Of the drain
upon the vital powers. wakes and wondsrs
Of his loss ofsnergy and Of strength. Thus.
the tariff preys upon the resources Of the
consumer and tAoush he sees it mot. yet he
feels tho drain upon him. The Senator
made most favorable impression and his
remarks were frequently interrupted By
hearty applause.

ments; Of the tongs which oystsrmen use
TO ply their trade and Of the necessaries Of
