At CoalviIle.

COALvILLE, Oct. 22.-Last evening
grand rally was held in Cuffs hall at
which Hon r. c. Chambers and George
E. Blair spoke The hall was comfort
ably filed with people and many prouiin-
ent silver Republicans were present. Les
lie Boyden acted as chairman at.i intro
duced Mr.. Blair, who spoke upon the sill
yer question and the local questions that
this year were before the people. He ear
nestly appealed to his hearers to send ca
pable, honest men as legislators and those
who would not send to the United States
senate any other than silver man whom
the people trusted. Also a congressman
of high ability and high character and one
whom the people could repose confidence
in. In introducing Mr.. Chambers the
chairman said every man, woman ana
child in the senatorial district knew him.
and respected, honored and trusted him.
Mr. Chambers began by saying that he
had not sought the position ne Would be
called upon TO fill. He had only accepted
the nomination because his friends mad
urged him earnestly He desired, II elect
ed, to be of service to his constituents.
and hoped to be one of those who would
be called upon to select senator or the
United States who would be worthy OF
the position and worthy of the honor OF
representing Utah. Continuing, Mr..
Chambers discussed the silver question,
showing in a simple way how the demone-
tlzation of silver had affected the prices
of farm products and labor and brought
the people to a condition that in many
cases it was painful to contemplate. The
condition of the American work;ngmen
of the east who were now being coerced
and intinidated into voting for man who
would be owned and controlled by the
trusts and goldbugs was a blot upon the
name of the republic. With the election
changes which are vital to the life of the
nation would be brought about and the
needful remedies applied.
My opponent. Hon. A. Hatch" said
Mr.. Chambers, has seen fit to write a
letter to the Republican chairman accept
ing the nomination for the position of
state senator and saying in his letter that
he is warm advocate of the cause of
silver. / have not deemed it necessary
to do this. 1t seemed to me that 1 did
not need to tell the people where | stood
and still stand. have needed no CONVEX
sion to this cause" (Applause) After
ity OF money. the necessity for an increased
currency which would be safe and
honest, he closed with an appeal to the
voters present to stand by the entire tick
ct for the reason that that part OF the
Democratic party which had forced the
silver question to the front and had
placed in nomination the youthful hero
Bryan is entitled to the support of
every silver man in the Union. As q
matter of fact there is but one ticket that
can be voted for conscientiously this year
by the silver men and that ticket is the
one with the barnyard fowl, the rooster
as its emblem. Put your mark up by the
rooster and let it go at that" lApplause.l
Mr.. Chambers has been royalty received
on all hands during his journey through
this county. At Peoa a splendid meeting
