Mr.. DOLLIvER'S HAPPY SPEECH.

Boston. Nov. 1.-THE annual dinner
OF the Home Market club was held al
Mechanics hall last evening and was
one of the most successful In the his
tory of the organization. Fully 1000
people attended. The most dist.n-
Euished guests were Congressman Mel
son A. Dlngley of Maine, Congressman
Charles a. Russell OF Connecticut, Con-
gressman Jonathan Il. Dolliver Of Iowa
and Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, all
OF whom made speeches arousing great
enthusiasm.
At O'Clock the members Of the club
and the guests sat down TO dinner in the
main hall. which was elaborate.y dee
grated with flags and bunting. and pie

tilted with the development and history
OF the Republican party.
Promptly at o'clock, President
Charles A. Stott Of Lowell called the
meeting to order ard introduced Leu
tenant Governor Crane. who corg~at-
ulated the Home Market club "on the
fact that II has always stood for good
government, sound money and protec-

pressing his regrets at not being able 10
attend: I'm behalf of the Republican
national committee thank the club for
its most valuable services to the whole
country. and bespeak for ii long con-
tinuance Of usefulness and Of increas-

Congressman Dingley.
The principal address was that of
Congressman Dingley of Maine. who
said among other things: THE peo-
pie OF. this country have been attentive,
although reluctant pupils in national
kindergarten. The tuition has come
high, but no people ever learned so much
IN four years. although there are some
persons with very short memories"
The realized fact that has been burned
into the consciousness OF so many of
our seventy odd millions OF people is that
the uneXampled prosperity which had
been ours under protective policy for
30 years, even in SPITE OF the burdens
imposed by a gigantic war, and es-
pecially during the IA years from 1879,
when we got back TO a sound currency
and normal conditions, TO 1898. began 10

future. distrust even of the credit of the
government, industrial and business

which faced our people; and that the in

lection would be promptly restored. and
has advanced with steady tread since
such legislation has been placed on the
statute books. although everyone recog-
nizes that while you can tear down in
a few months. yet It requires many
months to rebuild. II is not an ounce,
but many tons of fact that have over
whelmed the free trade theories.
