WHATCOM. Nov. 7.--Hon VIII r. HUM
phrey. of Seattle. c.osed the Republican
campaign here tonight amid whrlwind of
cheers that shook the windows OF Light
house theater at the end of every period of
the orator. The cheers came from not .
few men. but the entire audience that was
jamnned into the theater till ali the stand
ing room was taken up.
To emphasize this tremendous greeting
which the patriotic references of the
speaker evoked j. r. Ronald. Of Seattle.
talked to not over a hundred and fifty peo-
pie at well advertised fusion opposition
meeting in the Beilingham theater. The
fusionisis had the band and did all the
drumming. The Republicans had the popu-
lar hear: with them and the people fiocked
ia their meeting till hundreds were turned
away. Such throng and such ENTHUSIASM
at the one meeting and such lifeiess and
spiritless effort ut the other has never been
seen here before and the Republicans are
jublant at the prophecy of victory.
Hon. A. +. Mead was chairman and Mr..
Il. NJ. Wilson and Senator Dorr made short
talks before Mr.. Humphrey was introduced
The main part of his address was devoted
to skinning Lewis. and as he showed up
the deceit OF the long distance warrior the
audience rose and cheered again and again.
Mr.. Lewis viii always bear the brand of .
shameless falsifier before a Whatcom asi-
dience after tonight. His own letters and
tc.egrams and speeches furnished the
proofs.
The Republican meeting broke UP with
three rousing cheers for President McKin-
aey. the little fusion audience filed silently
out OF the cheerless gloom of the big thea
ter and took the back streets home to avoid
the chatting OF their opponents The pros
poets OF a sweeping Republican victory In
Whatcom county are almost an assured
promise after tonghts showing of strength
and sentiment.

Hamilton Lewis majority will slightly exceed this
figure, with Goldman and Jones not far behind The
vote of these three will not be widely separated

that they will support Houston. Two years ago in

these counties the fusion state committee has not
touched upon local issues but has urged all parties
to do their utmost to concentrate the OF all
