The Democratic Meeting.

The Democratic meeting was callet
to order by County Chairman w. T
McCue, and Lieutenant Governol
Echols in very pleasant little speech
introduced the speaker. Judge VIM. H
Mann, of Nottoway.
Judge Mann opened on Mr.. RoOse
welt for his wantOn attack on the Dem
ocrats in his Minneapolis speech, and
asked where would the governments
interests in Cuba have been but for the
services of Fitz Lee and Joe Wheeler.
He said that Teddy had been in one
engagement that Jackson would have
called a skirmish. He said that in bis
county at the beginning of the war it
had a population of 2, 400 men, women
and children, and the monument erect
ed there gave the names of 900 men
who gave their lives for their country.
These we're the people that Roosevelt
said stood for ''lawlessness at home and
cOwardice abroad"
Trusts received the attention of the
speaker, who said they had thrived as
never before since the present admin
istratiOn came into power. He said
the Democratic party would throttle
the trusts and that there would be such
tidal wave next November as would
sweep the Republican party from pow
er in which the trusts were trying to
implant it permanently.
The question of Imperialism was
handled with great skill by the speak
er who repudiated the title of the Uni
ted States to the Philippines. He
showed the enormous cost of this war
in blood and money and said the islands
were not worth the life Of one Ameri-
can boy, much less the number that
had been sacrificed already.e
The speaker said the Republicans
wanted to side track these great issues,
but they they could not shirk them as
they were the cause of them now be-
ing before the people.
He closed his able address by appeal
ing to the people to give their unani-
nous support to Bryan, Stevenson and
Flood, who represented the true inter
ests of the people. Mr.. Flood, be char
acterized as representative of the
young Democracy, and was always
found battling for Democratic princi-
pies, and that there was no trner Vir-
gilman than the standard bearer of the
Tenth Congressional district.
The speech of Judge Mann elected
much applause from the large audience
and awakened the people to the efforts
they must put forth in the coming
campaign.
