At both meetings persons promi-

cupied places on the stage.
Councilman white was greeted with
an outburst of applause when he
walked on the stage in the afternoon.
DR.. Meade said in part:
If there is anything the American
people like it is to be skinned. We are
giving a privilege to the greatest evil
that ever skinned the people-the
liquor traffic.
THE glory Of this nation is in its
manhood. Whatever strikes manhood
down strikes a blow at the nation.
May the lightning of God Almighty's
wrath strike down with destruction
every institution that is dragging down
the manhood Of the land.

change for boys you can get dollars
You can't get a saloon man Of this city
TO stand on this platform and defend
his business. He'll talk about Maine
and Kansas, but not about his business
In Wilmington. There's that mission
airy who came here from New Zealand.
He came here to tell you things you
already knew. He told you the liquor
sellers trample the law under foot in
Maine and in Kansas but he neglected
to tell you that they trample It under
foot In Delaware. He didn't tell you
that the liquor sellers violate the law
under prohibition as well as under the
license system"
Referring to Boston and citing an
Illustration there, Or. Meade remarked:
why, some Of the streets there are
as crooked as some Delaware politi-
clans"
what a business to legalize one
man TO knock another down, and then
punish a man for being knocked down
The saloons are putting hell into our
boys, and our boys into hell"
Dr. Meade was given a tremendous
ovation when he finished.
Mr.. Fastburn Sarcastic

speaker introduced by Lieutenant-Gov-
