Big Demonstration at Oyster Bay-The
Governors Words of Cheer.

New York, Nov. -Four or five
thousand neighbors and friends of
Governor Roosevelt serenaded him at
Oyster Bay tonight. The villagers
marched to the governors residence,
escorted by 200 mounted men, and i'm
the procession were so wagons deco
rated with bunting.
The governor spoke briefly, thank
ing the people for the demonstration.
He said he believed the election of
Mckinley made it certain that there
would be four years of great prosper
ity to the country, and he believed the
country was entering upon a golden
era that would eclipse any period in
its history.
He declared that the dangerous fall
lacies had been laid at rest by the EN-
phatic vote of the people, and that
which four years q was only
stunned, had now been buried.
One of the kilograms which came to
the governor today was from Seth
Bullick, whom the governor described
as ONE of the best known cowboys in
the west. 1t read:
