NEW YORK, Nov 3.-The Tammany
Society Of New York gave a grand mani
festation Of its political activity tonight
when II stood sponsor for the biggest
demonstration Of the campaign. The
rally occurred in and around Tammany
Hall, and was successful beyond the most
sanguine expectations. 1t was the second
and last days demonstration OF the Tam
manyites. The big hall inside was appro-
priately decorated Across the stage was
a huge oil-painting draped in national
flags. Flanked by two large medalliOns,
In which were the portraits OF Cleveland
and Stevenson, stood the figure Of an In
dian, in war paint and feathers.
State Senator Roesch called the meeting
TO order, and without and remarks, intro
duced Hon. Joseph J. ODonohue. as
chairman. A letter from Senator German
was read, regretting his inability TO at
tend the meeting.
Senator Eustis, Of Louisiana, was intro
duced as the first speaker In speaking
OF the Force bill, ne said:
Let me tell you. in all seriousness, that
that Force bill, if it ever should become
"A law. will enslave the American people,
and will dig forever the grave Of liberty
in this country.
Great applause followed Senator Eustis'
speech.
Senator John G.. Carlisle was announced
as the next speaker. He was cheercd TO
the echo. He said / wish 1t were in my
power TO make something OF an adequate
return for this frcrdly demonstration,
but under the circumstances l must be
content with submitting TO you a very
few remarks. In fact il seems TO me
that the time for argument is almost
past, and that almost the only question
now remaining for the decision Of the
people is whether the Presidency OF the
United States can be purchased with
money and whether the people can be
bought with their own money wrung
from them by unjust taxation. The ques-
tiOn Of taxation is the most important
that can be submitted to any people. be-
cause Il affects the material interests o;
every man, woman and child In the whole
country.
Lightly touching on the Mckinley bill,
Senator Carlisle took up the Force bill
and said: | said for a long time after
this bill had been defeated in the Senate
that the Republican party would never
again attempt it; but when ! saw the
article of Senator HOar III the fofuih,
when l saw the applause with which eX-
Speaker Reed was greeted every time he
appeared in the Minneapolis convention
and advocated the measures in this bill,
! came TO the conclusion. and ] am OF
the opinion now that just as certain as
the people eleect a majority Of Republi-
cans 10 the next House and a Republi-
can President, you will have the Force
bin.
We are rapidly approaching period In
our history when live do not arrest the
present tendency the suffrage will be
worth but little. If anything. TO the peo-
pie. The experiment is 70 be tried now
whether in the State Of New York and
elsewhere the votes Of the people can be
bought The Republican party has ceased
20 appeal TO your reason and your pa
triotism. 1t relies for II success almost
entirely upon the expenditure OF money.
Senator Carlisle was followed ty Hon.
" II. j. Ham. of Georgia and Repre-
sentative John Dewitt Warner The great
OutpOurins Of Democrats, as indicated by
the attendance at the several overflow
meetings, was phenomenal. Fourteenth
street was throngcd while detached
crowds surrounded the stands at Union
Square and Fifth avenue.
