Tuesday afternoon opened with a
full house, to the spirited music OF
the Misses Lucia and Edith Skinner.
Hon. ID. G. Denison was chairman.
He remarked he was sure he had an
interesting company OF speakers 10
introduce, for they are all born YER
monters and Vermonters can do any
thing.
That it was Vermonter who fired
the first gun in the war with Spaln'
q Vermonter who took Manila, anoth-
er who sailed the Oregon thousands
Of miles and got there on time, and
Vermonter who first placed our flag
on the walls of Pekin. He then in
PRODUCED Hon. Frank w. Carpenter,
of Boston.
He said he was glad to be introduce
ed as a Vermonter, and proceeded to
tackle the Democratic bugbear, I'M
perialism. His remarks were OF a
string kind and worth a verbatlon
report, but space forbids and only a
few can be given.
"The history Of the Republican
party is the history of the world. ="
That no man ever had or ever Will
have a place in history as near Aora'
ham Lincoln as William Mckinley.
Applause.
He asked young men to be careful
how they voted and said that all the
isms were not through notifying
Bryan that he was their candidate for
president and before they were
through he expected the other party
would notify him he was "not in it. "
Applause.
Hon. George Fiske Hooker, of Brat
tleboro, was now introduced in Mr..
Dennison's pleasant way. He dates
rallies back many years when they were
called counsels. He spoke of the is
sues of four years ago and considered
them practically the same today. or
the wonderful progress during the
last four years. We have seen our
country take it's place as the foremost
in the world. The silver question,
also Protection had his attention and
the difference between tariff and free
trade was strikingly i Illustrated.
Trusts were first organized in Eng
land and are child of free trade. I'M
perialism and other isms were taken
up and narrowed until Democratic
ideas were smoo,hed to harmless pow
der,
He spoke of President Mckinley as
brave in peace, calm in turmoil, brav-
er in war. Applause.
Judge 4. S. Stanton, of Roxbury,
was next introduced. He says the
same thing confronts US today as four
years ago only as usual the Democrats
have different paramount issue. He
quoted prophecies as given by Bryan
four years ago and said it is evident
that as a prophet Bryan is failure.
In the first lO6 years of the United
States our exports over cur imports
amounted to 1888, 900, 900 in the last
three years it has amounted to 81, $50
900, 600 or five times the amount of
the JOG years.
Expansion has always been going on
in the United States. 1t was started
and carried on by the Democratic party
as long as they were in power and
they never asked the people OF a terri.
tory if they would like this or that,
but if they failed to keep in line SOL
diers were sent aud they were put in
line, sometimes with rope. If they
were right then we are right now.
A fact for Democrats to chew, is
that Bryan left his business and came
to Washington and influenced fifteen
Democrats to vote for the Paris treaty
thereby carrying the day, otherwise
the Philippines would not have been
kept But the first good of the islands
was to enable us to rescue our people
in Pekin the other day.
He asked all to vote next Tuesday
not that it made any difference in the
state affairs but because the world is
looking, and the influence so great
that it is of national Importance.
America was sung, thus closing the
biggest and best rally ever held ia
this town.
