Boston, Nov 24-The banquet OF the Homo
Market Club in Mechanics Hall tonight was
the finest affair of the kind ever witnessed In
Massachusetts, and fitting climax to
the recent Republican victory in this State.
Nearly 1,5OO men occupied seats at the tables,
while not far from 5000 women and men oc.
cupied the galleries. The hall was eaborately
decorated with flags and bunting, while large
portraits of Presidents Washington. Lincoln.
Grant Harrison, Arthur Hayes, Garfield. Gov.
ernor-elect Greenhalge, Governor Mckinley.
Thomas b. Reed and Lieutenant-Governor Wall
colt were suspended in front OF the balconies.
On the platform were seated, among otn-
ers Governor Mckinley. Governor-elect Green
halge Collector Beard, William II. Bent, presi-
dent Of the club; ex-Postmaster Thomas N.
Hart the Rev. E. A. Horton. Senator George
f. Hoar. Congressman Thomas B. Reed Con-
gressman Robert G. Cousins. Of Iowa, and Gov.
ernor Levi X. Fuller. OF Vermont. President
Bent, in behalf OF the Home Market Club well
coined all TO the feast Of reason and flow Of
soul. He said that year ago an organ Of
the Democracy invited the Home Market Club
to surrender. but this club knows no such word
as fail. The club rallied its forces and 1t still
lives. He concluded by introducing Senator
Hoar, who was received with great applause
SENATOR HoAR IN a MERRY MOOD.
Senator Hoar was cordially received. "Since
the last meeting of this club" he said. 1T has
not been our turn to play; 1t was our Demo-
cratic friends time to move. Well. since our
last meeting they have moved and We have
moved. They moved when the President called
the extra session Of Congress- and We have
moved in the elections in Massachusetts,. in
New-York and New-Jersey and Ohio and Penn
sylvania and Iowa and Kansas. and think. to

semby is evidence enough that you agree with
me that this Is no time for the business men Of
New-England to abandon their efforts; this Is
no time for the Home Market Club to give up
or to dsband. There Is nothing upon which
good government depends, there is nothing
which Is essential to sound finance or to COM
mercial prosperity to which the party now in
power in this country Is not a standing and
constant menace"
Senator Hoar then briefly alluded to the atti.
tude Of the Democrats on the silver question.
He also said:

GOVERNOR MKINLEY's WARM GREETING.
The scene when Governor Mckinley arose to
speak was ndescribable. The people arose In
a body waving handkerchiefs and cheering for
several minutes. 1t fully five minutes after
he arose before the Governors voice could be
heard. His clear-cut, incislve, logical state.
ments went home to every man In the big
audience. Here Is what Governor Mckinley
said:
Mr.. President and Gentlemen OF the Home Market Club:
