JUDGE STEPHENSON'S WELCOME.
Chairman Graham yielded the floor to
Judge r. r. Stephenson, who extended a
welcome to the visitors. Among other
things he said:
1T is made nv pleasant duty to express
to our guests and fellow Republicans from
the other parts of the district our gracious
thanks for honoring us with their presence
here tonight. The entire city. belongs to
you so long as you remain within its gates.
You may paint IL any color you please eX-
cept red-ths color belongs to the Demo-
Gratis. As a precautionary matter our street
commissioners have securely anchored to
the earth all the bricks in the sidewalks,
so there will be no danger of them flying
up and hitting one on the head. The foun-
tains have been turned off, so that the ex-
cessive and dangerous use OF water may be
more easily avoided. The citizens of Nobles-
vile are not entirely unselfsh in accord
ing TO you this kindly reception. We ex-
pect a rich reward for all we have done by
listening TO the programme of speeches that
has been arranged. We are so unalterably
Republican and have the welfare of our
party at heart to such an extent that we
will spare no trouble and work in carrying
out another victory next fall, and TO this
end we thought that if this early in the
campaign we could get the leading Repub-
licans of the district together and listen to
some short and terse Keynote speeches our
labor would be one of love and would not
be in vain. 1t will be a very cold day be-
fore the old Republican party will ever take
lessons in finance from the young William
Jay Bryan and his pig-tall Chinaman and
Mexican greasers. Six years ago that ty-
pical maiden known as Miss Columbia be-
came infatuated with Il fat man from New
York and left the Republican party and
consorted with the Democrats. She had not
been gone long until she run out of money.
The feathers all came out OF her hat and
she looked very much bedraggled and had
to consort with the swine and eat husks.
She got very tired, thirsty and hungry, and
came back last March, and while President
Mckinley did not kill the fatted calf, but
i'm
Miss Columbia with royal honors. He has
increased her income so that she has
small surplus over expenses. She is dressed
up looks we'll and feels good, and avows
she will never desert us again Her return
was like a political sunrise to a panic-rid-
den people who had been dominated by
party against whose principles 1t is to pay
the interest of a debt and against its in
terest to pay the principal. In conclusion,
gentlemen, we again and again welcome
you and hope on your return home your
wives will know you and will not scold
you, and that the watchdog's honest bark
will bay you deep-mouthed welcome as you
draw near home.
