no outbursts of rage and bitterness.
WHAT a CONTRAST, BETWEEN
THE SPEECH OF ALVA ADAM,
AND THAT OF REV. BUCHTEL.
THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEE

man who had been robbed of his
rights, robbed of the Office OF govern
or and yet who did not stoop to low

make. personal attacks, using bitter
terms and loses his temper in his ad-

minister.
Through his entire speech Gov.
Adams was given the very closest at

enthusiastically applauded.
