"rousing democratic rally" for the even
ing OF Aug. rs and the program was car
ried out to the letter. The first act was
/ the flag raising and band concert in front
OF Memphremagog House at 1880, inter-
| spersed with very entertaining variety of
| fireworks; after which Lanes opera house
| filled to hear the stumping. Mr.. G. n.
Brady as chairman, introduced Judge Will
kinson of Albany, New York, who pro-
pounded quite learnedIy upon the coming
issues of the day, Shaping ''our republican
friends" quite frequently and quoting sta
| tistics from "World's Almanac" The dis
play of genuine oratory came into play,
however, when the other speaker, Mr..
Reddington of New York City was intro
dnced and stood forth to proclaim the only
means of salvation for the country that
was going to ruin under republican mis-
rule. He was very earnest, entertaining
speaker, and his hearers were sorry he ha6
to abbreviate his argument because of thu
late hour. Mr.. Reddington was on tn
board of commissioners appointed by Gov
Pingree nineteen years ago to locate tn
new county buildings and re- ablish thu
shire town of the county. The Bartol
| Landing band rendered first class music.
