the Pops.
Frank Hanford, candidate for repre-
sentative. told how two years OF Demo-

tive, said If he was elected, and be was

straightforward manner. Mr.. Wing stated
that the Democrats were going around tell-
ing people that there were one or two men
on the Republican ticket who would not

not deceived by this device of the enemy

ticket would be elected by large majority.

said he believed that a large number of
Democrats would secretly vote the Repub-
lican ticket He told his auditors TO not
be deceived by the trick spoken Of by Mr..

showed the many mistakes made by the
Democrats in their tariff legislation. He
declared that the Democratic tariff was en-
acted TO grind down the North and to
build up Che South.

speech full Of patriotism and good senti-
ment.
