that We enjoy under a free government.

Mr.. Hughes was interrupted by a hard
headed Lowville farmer, who may have
been thinking Of the last time he attended
the county fair.

A crowd Of 1 ,OOO people and all the steam
whistles in the town greeted Mr.. Hughes
at Carthage. The noise OF the factory
blasts was deafening for a few minutes e.
There are a good many manufacturing
plants at that place, and they had all closed
down TO give the workingmen a chance to
see and hear the candidate. They cheered
roundly his pledge to enforce the labor

there last Wednesday. His car pulled
for several hours while Mr.. Hearst slept.

shouting and the thowing Of hats in the
air. The din that was raised was so great
sometimes that Mr.. Hughes had to give
up all efforts to make himself heard; For
a day meeting II was one OF the biggest
tina WATERFOWL has had in several years.
Some people said that IL was a larger
crowd than the one which turned ont to
hear Roosevelt in the Mckinley campaign
of 1900. The candidate arrived in Water
town at about 4 O'Clock and remained only
foTty-five minutes.

which Mr.. Hughes wrote seventeen years
ago for the Electric Lighting Company
before it was Incorporated in the trust.
Mr.. Hughes said;
Yesterday my opponent spoke OF me as
having been attorney for the lighting
trust" The lighting trust. as il Ia COM
monty meant in the city Of New York. is the
lighting monopoly with which we dealt in the
gas Investigation with which | had the honor
to be connected.
