: The appearance OF Judge Conner was
the signal for hearty and prolonged
applause to which Mr.. Conner re-
:. sponded with splendid ard character
n istic speech His remarks were force
n full and eloquent and showed to his

ID more like talk to old friends and
e neighbors than a labored rhetorical
effort He however grew eloquent ano
!. fervid in discussing the attitude OF
