Speaks on Local Governmen nj IN Il .ooiiy,.
Naturally every Democrat in tho State will
read this morning the speech dclverel by
Senator David Il. Hill in the Brooklyn Academy
OF Music last night. Most Republicans also
will read it. il for nothing moro than to earn
again that tho Senator has clearly sot forth
the issues Of the campaign and has not re-
Garded in any way their efforts to betog and
misload the voters. But only the 1000 who
crowded the Academy will have before them
tho erect and powerful figure of the
senior Senator Of the State and this
little army will long remember his impas-
stoned utterances his defiant gestures his
deep voice. and his bitter and cutting irony as
he spoke of the Republican party and it's as
saults on the Democratic party in the State
and the nation. Senator Hill is known in
Washington as one Of the most level headed
men on his feet that the city OF Magnificent
Distances has seen In many year He Is also
known as a man Of deep feeling and strong
temperament. but never In all his career was
he so determined and SO forcibe in his ex.
pressions as last night
There was damp fog over tho city. and it
rained some OF the time. But the lion hearted
Democrats Of Brooklyn. rs Senator Hill is fond
OF calling them. turned out and greeted him
with the ringing cheers aud enthusiastic Joy
that marks his every appearance anon them.
He was there to open the State campaign. For
half dozen years and more Governor and
Senator Hill has led the fighting Democrats Of
the State from the platform OF the Academy.
1t 10 there that the battle cry has been taken
up and echoed and reschoed through tho
State arousine the Democrats and tingiing
their nerves with enthusiasm. 1t is n remark-
able coincidence that in every campaign SO
started by this intrepid leader far-reachinG
victory has followed
There can DO no attempt made here to give
the names OF the Democrats who extended
this latest reception to the Dom ocratic chief
tain. It's only necessary to say that every
Democrat who has been at all conspicuous in
Kings county for the last forty years and who
could walk was on hand. There was an in
formal reception to tho Senator at the Claren-
don Hotel early in the evening when he ar
rived from New York. accompanied by District
t.. Tad, ;nL~
Then the Dem ocratc leaders OF Kings Grasped
his hand and congratulated him on his recent
determined stand In the Senate for the uncon.
ditional repeal OF the Sherman law.
This reception began at Z o'clock. and even
then the Academy. two blocks away. was
jammed from the dome to the orchestra The
Senator is a bachelor. and 1t looks now as II he
would remain one: but. nevertheless the
Democratic ladies Of Brooklyn are Just as en-
thuslastic about greeting him as the Demo-
cratic warriors. The boxes had their clus-
ters OF feminine beauty, and in tho orchestra
seats there was many wlnsome face.
There was a band OF course. with a white
govcd leader. and no and his men made things
pleasant for the great audience until the Sena-
tor arrived. The charming decorations of
bunting and banners were also mn attractive
feature OF the scene. The arrangements were
about as near perfect as possible. and tho

cratic warriors walking arm in arm, appeared
upon the great stage. They were the escort OF
