a vigorous speech. prefaced with the
remark that he was glad to see the jew

friends. He asserted that the only stock

that before the end of the campaign it
would leave them unable to fire a gun.
Taking up national affairs, Mr.. Ives
argued that the Republican party had
turned over a bankrupt government to
the Democrats and then blamed the
latter party for industrial depression.
A review of party policy of the two
great parties was made by MIR. Ives in a
way to impress the point that the Dem
ocratic rule is the only hope of a per-
petuatlon of the present form OF gov
eminent, and that the rule of the Re-
publican party is detrimental to the
interests of the masses of the people.
Discussing local politics, Mr.. Ives
challenged the statement thai Demo-
Gratis are not friendly to the Jewish
race. He mentioned the giving a place
to Henry j. StrOuse Oh its ticket, and it
had been fair and would do justice to
the race. The excellence of the party
ticket vas discussed.

candidate of the legislature, gave the
audience a practical talk on local issues

standing the fact that the Republicans

hearty reception when introduced, and
pleased the audience with a talk on
party fealty. He urged the voters to

fortunate enough to have Independents
pitted against him. He also asked them
to be careful not to encourage boilers
against the other candidates.
Assembiyman Strouse spoke next, and
made a very eloquent address to his
W people. He commented upon the
liberty given the Jewish people in this
country, and the equal privileges ac-
corded them. He alluded to the Know
nothing party, and said he Joined the
Democratic party over thirty years ago
because he was convinced that it is
the friend of his people. He discussed

from Republican sources that people i'm
