DIV. 10 Needed.

Five or six hundred people, paying
no attention to the extremely emmy
atmosphere. gathered. and stayed. at
the corner Of Washington avenue ana
Twenty.ninih street to participate in
what proved to be the most enthusi-
astic meeting Of the present campaign
Applause and cheering were frequent
during the evening. and the tact that
the people remained to the last to
hear the speeches was generally CONF
mented upon.
The chief speaker Of the meeting
was Captain Charles Campbell. OF
New York. who, with Mr.. w. J. Ryan
il making tour Of the coast under
the auspices of the national Demo-
cratic committee. Captain Campbell,
who Is a practical seaman. spoke to
the men interested in ships and
shipping as one who knows, and his
discussion OF the conditions OF the
American merchant marine was In
teresting and timely. He declared
that during all of the time the Re
publican party has been in power 1t
has done nothing for the American
merchant marine. and challenged any
member OF the party to deny his state
ment. He advocated the old-time
Democratic idea OF a discriminating
duty as the only thing that will re-
habilitate the marine.
The Ship Subsidy.
Somebody in the crowd asked. How
about Jones voting against the ship
subsidy?' The speaker, after II
curing What Jones?" replied All
honor and glory to him for voting
against that BILL" and proceeded to
argue that a system OF subsidies could
never permanently improve the con-
dition OF the American merchant ma
rine, which had flourished under the
Democratic discriminating duty plan.
and had fallen away to nothing since
the Republicans had been in control.
Mr.. Ryan. who accompanies Captain
Campbell, spoke briefly. addressing
himself especially to the working men.
He referred to the fact that the Re-
publican party had refused to heed
the requests OF the working men,
while the Democratic party had prom
ised Just what had been asked for.
Mr.. Bachelor.
Mr.. O. d. Bachelor. who presided
over the meeting. made strong
Democratic speech before introducing
Captain Campbell Among other
things, Mr.. Bachelor produced statis-
ties to show that during the Roosevelt
administrations 100000 new Office
holders have been placed on the pay
rolls of the nstiona government. and
that the last year, the year preceding
q presidential election, $4,000 new Of
Gees had been created by the admins
tration. He declared that the ad-
miRistration was the greatest trust
Of all.
The meetin, closed with stirring
speech by Mayor Marquis Jones. The
mayor said that the Republicans here
attempted to blame the Democratic
party for the failure Of the ship-sub-
sidy bill TO pass, when the Republi-
can party. with an enormous MAORI.
ty, had deliberately refused to pass
the measure.
The meeting vas preceded by q
parade by the Eagle Engine Com,
pany's band.
