II. A. Rankin. the Pennsylvania iron
moulder, spoke at the court house Sat-
urday evening to q very large and en-
thusisstic audience. Mr.. b. r. Wood
presided at the meeting, and introduced
w. G.. Porter, president Of the State Re-
publican League, who made q few re-
marks upon the issues Of the campaign.
Mr.. Porter then introduced Mr.. Rankin.
Mr.. Rankin spoke for about two hours
and half, and when he was through
the crowd wanted more. His explana-
ton Of the Philippine question was one
Of the clearest yet given. He spoke Of
Mr.. Bryan's promised policy in regard
TO the Filiponos, If felccted, and called it
the most revolutionary measure within
his memory. His forceful illustration
of the way trusts we're formed in 1884
8 because of the distrust of democratic
financial policies, was sufficient to con-
vince anybody why trusts were formed
in times ofunrsst. He paid his respects
to Senator Pettigrew and Judge Moore,
particularly the latter, for the treason
able utterances he made here
In a speech few weeks ago.
Taken altogether the speech was
one of the clearest and most convincing
ones ever delivered in Custer. 1t was
interspersed with wit, sarcasm, faUts and
arguments, and the speaker frequently
asked anybody in tho audience to deny
a statement or to ask a question. We
believe the speech was productive of
much good.
