Arizona republican., 1898-11-08

danced to whatever music the South
 arn Pacific company played
 Hon. Harry Zuck of Tempe followed l Mayor Adams. General Wilson, he said, told the people that statehood could not be an issue because the dem
 0crats were in favor of it, and where i there was no difference of opinion be- ! tween the two parties there could be 10 issue. Col. Wilson deplored ..-e fact" said the speaker, that Col Herring ! presented such a beautiful tspec-tackle' i in advocating statehood" He main
 lained that the issue of statehood was 1 strengthened by the man who was con- cerned it, and the difference between i the position Of the democrats and the republicans is that Wilson admits that
 he can't get statehood, and Col Brodie ] says that he can. We want state i hood said he, ito escape the same
 vicious government fhaf cur revolu- lionary fathers fought to escape in 1876"
 1 Mayor Adams called upon Rough Rider John McAndrews of Captain O'Neills troop, who was in the audi ence, and announced that he would tell
 the people about Col. Brcdie He said he desired to instruct his populist ] friends how to vote, and he wanted to | tell them of the kind of man the lieu 5enant-colone1 of the Rough Riders is He spoke of the hatred of the demo-
 cratic leaders, which was expressed in the infamy of Saturday night. When
 MT. Wilson ridicules Col Brodie as he did on Saturday night, he does some thing that would not be allowed in any other town in the country" said he. l The address of Mir McAndrewS was frequently cheered.
 Hon. Robert E. Morrison of Prescott
 was the last speaker. His clear deliV-
 cry rang through the audience with an
 eloQuence which aroused the greatest
 nthusiasm. 'I am glad I came down
 dere,' he said, eff it was but to hear
 the speech of Mr. McAndrews-the
 words of a man who shook party aff1l-
 ations and said party lines must be
 dropped and democrats and populists
 oin with the republicans in rallying
 the standard of his leader, Col. Bro- die I admire the honesty Of this man, ] spirit which the world depends upon for it's preservation.
 ''When the campaign began" con-
 tinued MT Morrison, 'the democrats attempted to make an issue of the late war by condemning the administration for it's management of that war. But when that great democratic general, Joe Wheeler, told his story and yindi- cated the administration they were compelled to drop that issue. The democratic party is Q party that does not build up; it tears down. This was exemplifled by their attempt to de- fame the Rough Riders in this city Saturday night. It is such conduct which causes Arizona to be a by-word
 n the mouths of eastern people.
 ''The conduct of the democratic lead ers,' said the speaker, is an outrage to decency. They allow their speak ITS to make sport of Col. Brodie's wounded arm and hold up the Rough Riders before the people in ridicule. The intelligence. decency and manhood of the people of Arizona will not en- dorse such tactics.
 q have known Col. B7odie for many years, and 1 believe that he has done enough for Arizona to entftle him to the unanimous support Of the people in this contest. He is a miner and cCwman, and he knows AriZona's de- sires better than any other man. We nave had various issues and they amounted to nothing. But there are men before the people today who are entitled to recognition for the records they have made, and foremost among these are Col. Brodie and Captain James H. McClintock. (Great applause) It will be a disgrace to Maricopa county if Captain McClir.ock is de- ,eated. The people of Arizona can show their devotion for the flag by voting for the gallant Rough Riders"
 Mr Bruce Perley sang a campaign eng preceding the address of MT. Morrison, which was rendered with eX- ,ellent effect.
