Saturday Evenings Rally at Hallowell.

HIlloweil Republicans have reason
70 feel glltilied at the splendid mass
meeting held in their city. Saturday
evening. Hon. p. +. Campbell who
r..,,raseuts the Third Kansas district
in the National House Of Representa-
ives. is a strong, clear-he d man
and an exceptionally eloquent and con-
yincing speaker. Although he has only
served one term in Congress he has
already impressed himself upon his
associates as one of the coming men
at the national capital. His speech at
HalloWtll. Saturday evening. like all
of the addresses he has delivered in
Maine during the present campaign,
was mastery presentation of the
great principles and policies of the Re
publican party. Especially strong was
his showing of the disaster to our agri
cultural interests We're Democratic so

man Campbell is one that should be

The speech of Hon. Edward Payson

most exclusively to the tariff, on which
question he is. unquestiOnably, one of
the greatest living authorities. His

for the first time since the out
break Of the civil war the Democratic
party had found itself in complete con-

government. Not only did Mr.. Brown
develop the theory of protection in the
clrarcst possible way, but he showed
cnnclusively by indisputabe figures the

prosperity of the American people.
The meeting was a most successful
one and will be a material help to the

That Constitutional Club.

Frequently since the opening of the
national campaign. the New York
papers had had reference to the Con-
stitutional club organized in tn
national metropolis to further the
candidacy of Judge Parker and to saw
the nnsuspccting country from the
terrible damage which its constitution
would suffer in case of the election of
President Roosevelt. To be sure all
he states which are solid for Judge
Parker are those in which the constitu-
ton is the most openly and ilagrlntly
violated, but this does not prevent this
coteric of New York constitution-eX-
Of Esopus as the leader of a party
which is lying awake nights to save
that immortal document from HARM
The New York Press has taken the
trouble to look over the membership
roll OF this club, and gives us a des2rip-
ton Of its composition.
To begin with, it appears that most
Of its members have been concerned in
the organization of the so-callcd
Parker College Club. although Parker
himself is not a colleg" man, and also
in the formation of Il Parker Demo-
cratic campaign club. In this respect
they resemble the "supes'' of Il theatre,
who figure in more roles than one III
the course of one act. Judging from
the comments of the New York Demo-
cratic papers. we have been led to be
composed of prominent New York
lawyers who had bolted the Republican
party in the fear that our President
was an enemy to the constitution. Blu;
Il study Of the membership list does NOT
reveal Il single prominent Republican
among the several hundred men whose
names are given. On the contrary al
the leaders are well-known Democrats
Of many years standing, and some Of
them are prominently identified with
trusts. whose suddenly aroused regard
for the constitution cannot "ail tn
cause general smile.
Mr.. Carlisle, Mr. Clevelands CORNER
secretary Of thJtreasury. is one OF
these disinterested constitution-de-
Tenders: Mr.. Francis Lynde Stetson.
VINO was partner with Cleveland and
Carlisle in the secret arrangements for
the great bond deal. is another: Mr..
Charles 5. Fairchild, formerly Of Mr.
Cievelands cabinet, is a third: anon
The rest are Messrs. Peckham and
Hornbl"wer. whom Mr.. Cleveland
nominated vainly for the United states
supreme Court; and Mr.. John 9. Mil
burn and Mr.. Everett p. Wheeler and
others of the Cleveland old guard. Not
single prominent Republican is in the
list There are others whose partici-
patton is equally significant. There

His appearance again as campaign
orator will add picturesqueness to the
national contest which is now some
what lacking. The Democratic leaders
will regard his appearance with con-
ilicting emotions, but it is probable that
the Republicans will hail him with de-
light. He should not be allowed To con-
fine his efforts solely to the West, but
he should come East. into what ne USED
to call the ''enemy's country. HOW

which commend themselves for the

The Grand Trunk railroad at Port
land has been noted for it's rapid work
in about all lines. the loading and dis
charging of steamers. the moving OF
cars, the ability to rise from reverses
ana other things. but it has now estab-
lished Il record in a new thing. that OF
moving grain. for in five days, it has
transported 10000 bushels Of corn
from Chicago to Portland. This is
pretty speedy work from no matter
what standpoint it is viewed The
grain was begun to be shipped from the
elevators in Chicago on Aug. 26. 1t
had to be loaded into boats, taken by
water to Midland, by which route il
was to come, again hoisted into eleva-
tors and dumped into cars to be
brought to Portland. The first of the
200 car loads arrived in Portland. last
Wednesday; the rest came Thursday
OF the 200 car loads, 100. or so. 900
bushels of grain, was placed in the Do
minion line steamship Ottoman before
O'Clock Thursday night. 1t was ex-
pected that this would be ready in the
boat by Friday. but a day ahead of
time was something nobody had dare,
to hoFe for. The other So 900 bushels
of grain will be kept for the other
steamships and vessels coming into
port for grain. These are the days
when wheat is scarce. Yet for all Of
that fact the Grand Trunk elevators in
Portland are better supplied than those
in the other big ports of export. This
was proved this week. for Boston. big,
mighty Boston. that has crowded 50
much over Portland in the way of ship
ments and exports during the past few
years, actually sent to the Maine city
for 1000 bushels of wheat so that thu.
steamers running from the Hub to Liv-
erpool might have their holds filled.
