The Democratic meeting at salem
Wednesday night turned out to be
complete fizzle. Tae meeting was held
on tao front lawn Of Jesse F. Ran

upon state issues. told what the new
tax bills were and condemned them, but
did not even suggest possible idea for
their betterment. His speech was
made up Of condemnations of Republi

Democratic principles at all. It was
peculiar that not speaker of the even
