BIG DEMOCRATIC MEET|NC|
The Court House Packed
With Enthusiastic Demo
Gratis. Gov. Smith, Hon.
Edwin Warheld, Hon. Will
liam Shepard Bryan and
DR.. Gordon 7. Atkinson
Address the Multitude.

One Of the biggest political meetings
in this town for many years was held
here last Tuesday afternoon. The Court.
House was filled to its utmost capacity
with the sturdy Democrats of Worces-
ter. There was also large number of
ladies present, all of whom seemed to
enjoy the speaking.
Hon. Edwin Warfield and Messrs.
Bryan and Atkinson arrived in Snow
Hill about eleven o'clock, having driven
from Pocomoke City. Mr.. VARIED said
he wanted to meet the people face to
face and he kept the local reception com.
mittee on the jump until dinner time
Introducing him to the people assembled
here. He was assured by most every
one he met that they intended to vote
for him and were going to help old Wor-
cester roll up one of the biggest majori.
ties ever given in the county.
The Pocomoke City Cornet Band fur
nished music before the meeting assem-
bled, after which Mr.. Thomas McNulty
followed each speaker with one of his
popular campaign songs.
The meeting was called to order by
Col. John P. Moore, and Mr.. Francis H
Dryden of Pocomoke City, was called to
the chair. He made some telling and
very appropriate remarks, after which
he introduced Governor Smith as the
first speaker of the day. Governor
S<eith made a great speech which we
publish in part elsewhere We are very
sorry thar we have not space to print it
in full. az it is well worth reading.
Governor Smith was given hearty
reception by his fellow countymen and
was reJ Jeatedly cheered as he referred to
his administration and declared he had
done mis- duty honestly and fearlessly
and had no apologies to make for his Of
fetal acts.
When Mr.. Warfield was introduced
by the chairman he was given round af-
ter round of applause. He had his au-
dience with him from the first word he.
uttered until he closed. He said he had
not been in Worcester for twenty years,
but he had been here long enough to
learn that the Democrats were gong to
do their full duty. He did not make
any attempts at oratory, but addressed
the people in conversational tone, very
earnest and impressive, telling them to
trust him as their Governor and as God
was his judge he would never betray the
trust. He referred to his friendship
for Governor Smith and how they were
rivals for the nomination four years ago.
He called upon the white men of the
State to vote for every Democrat ON the
ticket, and said he expected this county
to do her part nobly.
DR.. Atkinson and Mr.. Bryan also
made good speeches after which the
meeting adjourned and the speakers left
on the steamer Highland for Pocomoke
City. AS none Of the speakers were able
to remain in Snow Hill over night it
was necessary to abandon the meeting
to be held at night.
1t was the general sentiment of the
people that many votes were made by
the addresses of the candidates and
Governor Smith.
The meeting at Pocomoke City was
large and enthusiastic one and Mr.. War
field added to his already great popular
ity in Costens' District.
