CAMPAIGN REPORTS.
The Free Silver Enthusiasm Continues to
Grow without Abatement

Readers should not assume that because few
reports Of meetings follow that the last week
was quiet one, As o matter OF fact reports
OF the usual number OF successful meetings
have not reached this ONCE promptly.
ST. PAUL, September 2S.-E. r. Ridg-
Icy, Populist candidate for Congress,
spoke here to-day. He made a splendid
impression, and made votes for himself
and party. Mr.. Ridgley was a soldier,
and will be the true friend of the vet
eFan il elected TO Congress. His show
ing Of inconsistency in the gold argu-
ments OF his adversary were remarkably
clear. The opera house was crowded to
it's utmost capacity. Mr.. Ridglsy's crowds
are always large and enthusiastic.

HoLTON, September 2S.-Not since
September A, the opening rally of the re-
form forces in jackson county, has Hol-
ton witnessed such magnificent gather.
ing as enthusiastically greeted the intro
duction Of our next Governor, Hon. j.
W. Leedy, upon the speakers stand in
the public square on Friday afternoon
last. Conservative estimates place the
number present at fully 1900, notwith-
standing the numbers far exceeded those
who listened to John j. Ingalls,, and
whom the Republican press Of the city
reported at 5000 people. Senator Leedy
made a plain, common.sense speech,
which was very pleasing and convincing
to his hearers. Ed Little and Judge
McCue also addressed the army Of voters
present. The meeting was a decided

LUCAS, September GA large con
course of people assembled here tO-ds!
at the Thirty-fourth Senatorial distric
picnic in s. P. Dinsmore's grove, east o
town. Senator w. B. Helm Of Ellsworth
gave the people an excellent address il
the morning. In the afternoon Hon. j
D. Botkin delivered one Of his unsnswer
able speeches. Unfortunately, 3 shower
Of rain came up about 4 o'clock and cut
short the speech. Judge John A. Mshar
Of Abilene was present, but, owing TO the
rain, did not speak. County candidates
were present from the four counties oi
the district. Botkin made a hit by read
ing the Republican money plank in The
State platform Of 1890, and then, aftsl
naming the delegates to that convention
from Russell county, asking: "Where
are they standing now9" One OF them
is our candidate for Representative. The
other two bow to j. Pierpont Morgan.

Speeches were made by Senator Teller,
who joined the republican party at its
inception, and who was an ardent sup
porter of Lincoln, who for 20 years has
represented his state in the senate Of
the United States as "a republican, save
for two years in the cabinet
Of President Arthur; Senator Dubois,
from Idaho, whose father was nominated
for secretary of state of Illinois by Abra-
ham Lincoln, young Senator Cannon Cf
Utah, Representative Hartman from
Montana, Lennon Of California, and
Mott of North Carolina. The scene was
most affecting one, the gold men in
the committee were filed with compee-
sion and there WIS not a dry eye III the
room when Senator Teller spoke. Sena-
tors Dubois and Cannon and Delegate
Mott broke down completely and wept
like children.
Senator Lodge, who replied, spoke
words Of tender sympathy, as if the oc-
casion was some personal bereavement.
lie eulogized Senator Teller and his col
leagues, but declared firmly that the
representatives of the party could not
falter on that account on the money
question, 1t is not probable that there
will be any reply to the silver mon, at
least not an extended one. If
Senator Lodge can have his way,
no bitterness will be engendered.
The general belief is that the
convention will adjourn tomorrow. The
prevailing opinion continues to be that
Governor Morton will be Mckinley 3
running mate on tho ticket, although the
friends of Hobart and Evans still insist
otherwise, and the anti-Platt faction in
New York is bitterly fighting his nomi-
nation. 1t is believed Hanna is opposed

chief ground for the confidence Of the
