His Talks, But Was Not Greeted
With wild Enthusiasm-Some
Other Addresses.

Continuing. Mr. Allen said that he took
several degrees of pride in introducing
his fellow-townsman, Judge Zane.
The judge opened his remarks with a
statement, which, summarized, means
that he has not heard any Democratic

in a statement charging the Democratic
party with fostering and protecting
slavery. When Abraham Lincoln struck
the shackles from four million slaves the
Democratic party objected, because it
degraded American labor and was uncon-
stitutional. when the Republican party
declared in favor of protection, the Demo-
Gratis said It also was unconstitutional

Judge Zane declared in favor of the

others.
Mr. Allen again surged to the front and
introduced the Republican Glee Club with
special reference to Johnny Spencer;
one of the standard bearers of the Repubc

The boys sought assistance from the |
people present regarding "a tale OF Woe
The people assisted and hoWled-
The small boys up stairs wanted more
music and notwithstanding Mr.. Al
lens effort to get Mr.. Cannon into the
ring the small boy triumphed and the
singers sang-at least they thought they |
did-something in blank verse entitled
Grover Cleveland and His Free trade
Crew"
The small boy howled again but this
time it didn't go for Mr.. Allen got the

After citing a few election returns Mr..
Allen introduced Frank;

Mr. Cannon said that it had taken thirty

There are only two issues before the
people, the true and the false. Incident

some one had taken 100000 of church

lalism' of the protective tariff which
guards the home.
