South Amboy, Nov. 2,-One of the
largest and most enthusiastic political
demonstrations that South Amboy has
beheld during the present campaign
took place last night both in the stree
and in St Mary's Hall. Broadway
was lined with people some time be-
fore the parade was formed In front
of the Republican Club rooms
The procession was headed by Coun
Gilman A. M. Gordon, who acted as
chief marshal of the parade. The
Union Band came next, followed by
the Third Ward Republican Club on
horseback. The South Amboy Repub-
lioan Club came next, about one hun
dred strong, followed by the Lincoln
Battery, with their cannon which
spoke for all of them. The hotels and
houses along the line of march were
beautifully decorated with hunting and
Chinese lanterns and were aglow with
lighted candles and red fire. After
proceeding through the different
streets they marched to st. Mary i
Hall. The place was jammed to the
doors. Frank Fulton was chairman,
end, after a few appropr late remarks
lie introduced the speakers.
The first one was Han. George Il.
Record, OF Jersey City, whose speech
was on the national and State issues.
He started in by placing before the
audience the republican and demo
cratic side of the question, showing
how the democratic party lad failed
to keep their promises to Tie 'eopie
after their election; how proluia' bad
been made and broken; how they lad
come out for hard money and then
gone down to soft. This was greeted
with tremendous applause.
He then spoke of the trusts that the
democrats were making such howl
about. That was followed by the
tariff question and in his argum ent
On that subject he said "The demo-
cratic principle was nothing more nor
less than political robbery. = The
audience applauded this heartily.
The question of retaining of the
Philippines was then gone over and
the Panama canal came next, on
which subject he gave clear and logia
Cal reasons for President Roosevelt's S
actions, aud wound up his speech by
going over the subject of equal taxa
tion. Then there was more enthusi
asm and the band played.
Chairman Falton introduced J. H.
T. Martin, who said that every tissue
had been gone over SO thoroughly by
Mr.. Record that thers wasn't any
thing left for him to say. He made a
short speech appropriate and to the
point.
Judge Adrain Lyon. of Perth Am
boy, was next introduced and said the
same as Mr.. Martin, that he did not
intend to make speech, but hH
would like the people to vote for
Benjamin Howell, and the rest of the
republican candidates. He said that
South Amboy was made up of good
stuff and ended by telling a good
story.
Assemblyman Fordyce was next in
trodnced and made short speech,
which showed what excellent material
the republicans propose to send to
Trenton.

pleasure in introducing an old war
