The audience which greeted Senator

large, representative and enthusiastic
1t was the largest in numbers. more
representative in character and a goot
deal more enthusiastic than either the
democrtic crowd to listen to Stone q
few weeks ago or the crowd to lister
to Judge Groesbeck and participate IL
the free dance at the same hall the
night before. Many ladies were pres
ent, and they were just as enthusiastic
as the men. In fact, at times, they
started the applause and kept it going
for minutes. The University Girls
Glee and Mandolin club was present
for the musical numbers of the pro.
gram, and a bunch of university stu
dents sat just behind them, emitting
one of their heartiest university yells
at the close of the meeting.
University Boys and Girls.
The university boys n girls, in.
GLIDING several members of the facul.
ty, several members of the board OF
trustees and Mrs. Soule, the director
of the club, were present and they, too,
participated in the applause, recogniz
ing in the senator one of the launch.
est friends the university has, a man
who did so much for it's establishment,
and who was threatened with business
and political ruin by Keister, the arch
enemy of the university n county,
II he did not turn to and help Keister
steal the agricultural college and thus
dismember the university. They re-
cognized in Senator Warren a friend
who had beer tried when the univer.
sity needed every friend it had and had
been found not wanting. The cheer
was hearty, coming from the hearts of
the boys and girls who have SO much in
terest in the institution.
Gramm's Name Heartily Received.
1t was also notable the hearty ap'
plause the name of Hon. Otto Gramm
received, when, in the III of his adj
dress, Senator Warren referred to him
as the doughty, battle-scarred veteran
of many a political campaign in the
interests of the people.
There was nothing to dampen the
ardor of the people. Even the discount
eous action of h%irelings from the Haz-
enkamp committee in distributing the
untruthful and unpatriotic circular,
"Keister Makes Reply" at the door
of the hall. The people took the cir
culars that were forced into their
hands, read the title and Immediately
threw them down. The boys were not
blamed, as they were earning their pay.
The people did not even stop to jeer.
Never Saw Times Better.
After a number of pieces by the
glee club. including the singing of the
patriotic song, Shout for Wyoming,
Hon. Will McMurray, n OF the can
didates for representative, who presid-
ed at the meeting, introduced Hon. Eli
Crumrine, candidate for state senator,
who was selected to represent the local
candidates. MI. Crumrine stated that
he had peer in the state for nearly a
score of years, all that time in the
banking business, and he never saw
times better. They are better tina
they ever were before and getting bet
ter all the time. Mr.. Crumrine told a
little story that he said he believed
would apply to the democratic county
chairman next Wednesday morning.
He said that a good many years ago,
when he was a younger man in Penn
%sylvania, his town was away from h
means of rapid communication. They
did not have the railroad bringing news
from every quarter of the country with
in a few hours and the telegraph flash
ing it in as many seconds.
News Came All Right.
Following a presidential election a
resident of, his town volunteered TO
ride the forty miles to the nearest rail-
road station, going from there to a
timore by train. From Baltimore he
would telegraph the election returns
to this railroad station, where a mes
senger would convey it to Mr.. Crum-
rine's town, in the interior. The man
arrived in Baltimore the night of the
election. He could get little news
then and he went to bed and slept un'
til morning. The next day he arose
betimes and went out prepared to wire
the joyous news home of complete vic
tory. The victory was complexion
the other fellows. The Pennsylvania
wired home all right, but this was the
message he sent:
Election gone to hell. I'll be there
in the morning"
Mr.. Sehnitser introduced.
Following Mr.. Crumrine's address
Mr.. Schnitger was introduced. Mr.
Schnitger was first a resident of Lara
