After John F. Mcintyre had described in a twen-
ty-ninute speech what he said was Mr. Jerome's |
mental disturbance big Tim introduced
or. rather. he not introduced; just spoke
As Little Tim said, ''he needs no introduction
This latter statement proved by the familiarity
with which he greeted. For five minutes he
stood. unable to make himself heard above the
cheers and applause.
No mention OF Mayor McCleilan's name evoked
anything like the demonstration that greeted Con
gresham Sullivan. When quiet was restored he
was greeted with Hello, Tim" How about
Tanksgivn'? ?" "How's de cid sod?' and You're
de ladr' Big Tim" smiled indrlgently and began

fear of being shocked. We might have eaten with |
our knives at one time. but that was many years
ago, and have improved.
And it all gets down TO next Tuesday; thnt's |
cur chance. We going TO vote FOR George B.
Mcclellan. If any Democrats thinks that their
leaders fit let them throw them out but |
we must stay within the lines and fight within the
lines. Don't bother about signs in the cars that |

The other people say that they Will carry this |
district by 400, We have made a careful can- |
yass and can tell YOU that McCIellan's plurality
will be least 300 in the 9Th Assembly District
