just two blows struck, one by the
marshal, who gave his opponent a
swift poke between the eyes. and
the other by the colored gentle

A Rousing Republican Rally.

l
The rally of the campaign was giver
by the Republicans of Shelton or
Wednesday evening, and although the
failure of Congressman Cushnlan t.
arrive was generally regretted, the
speaker of the evening did for both ii
the excellent speech he made. Ton
p Fisk is making splendid record
for himself on the stump in this state
and Shelton people feel more than or
binary interest in him, because his
family reside here,
About o'clock the republicans met
at the Workmen hall and equipped
themselves with torches for the pro-
cession, which soon formed with near
ly one hundred in line, and headed by
the Shelton Band marched around
town before going to the hall. Roman
candles and enthusiasm was in evil
dence alone the line of march, and we
are proud OF the appearance of the
people who marched behind the Re
publican banners.
Kneeland's hall was crowded with
a splendid representative gathering
which gave strict and respectful atten-
ton to the speaker from beginning to
end of his two hours talk. The Band
as g1ee club sang two campaign
songs, which contained some pleasing
hits and were we'll received.
Mr.. Fisk made an ideal campaign
speech, talking in plain and terse lam
guage to his hearers and in such
straight argument that 1t is hard to
see how people can escape it. He told
them that the paramount issue of this
campaign is, how can we continue the
present prosperity. Whatever else
the voter may think. he must admit, if
he is honest, that he desires his condi-
ton to improve, rather than get worse
and that the Republican prophesies
have SO far seemed to be proven,
while the Democratic idea has turned
out to be incorrect. Mr., Fisk's argu-
,nent could give no offense to the op-
position, and much favorable comment
has been heard of It,
