WADENA, Mimi, Oct 20.-SpeciaL)-
Gov. Lind spoke here this morning at
$3.50 o'clock to an audience which taxed
the capacity of the new opera house not
withstanding the early hour of the meet
ing. Farmers began pouring into the
town at 7 o'clock and many drove
twenty miles to hear the governor. Gov.
Lind had but one hour to speak and his
address was devoted entirely to state is
sues. His arguments put the Republicans
completely to rout and they are in cha
otto condition. The large and enthusiast
tic meeting and the effect of Linds adj
dress has disconnected the leaders. Some
of whom are now lying in an effort to
make capital out of the testing remark
dropped by the governor While discussing
the Irvine plant, when he said that with
some of siSal not made into Irvine he
would like to see made into rope with
which to hang some who deserved ii. All
who heard the speech deprecate the at
tempts of the so called Republicans in
trying to make political capital out of
the remark, which was jestingly made
Gov. Lnds reference to Bryan brought
forth great applause.

and introduced the various speakers,
the first of whom was Thomas r. Kane,
Democratic candidate for county attor-
ney. Mr.. Kane devoted the principal part
OF his ADDRESS to national and state is
sues, concluding with a review of the
county candidates. His description of the
evils of imperialism was telling effort,
and called forth frequent interruption in
the shape of unbounded cheering. The
Republicans said Mr. Kane, ''wouiH
introduce government by men and not
by law, one section would be governed
by the people and the, other by brute
force. The condition was eexemplified in,
the case of the Philippine islands, an
object lesson that was a. fact and not
a theory

described, and added that now, while
the burden was probably light, those to
come would feel its Weight To the adj
mlnlstration of Gov. Lind he pointed
with pride, and asked that every eff

standing teachings of his race called
forth unlimited cheering, was ]. w.
