PARKER IN BALTIMORE

+ Judge Alton b. Parker, of New York !;
Senator John W. Daniel, OF Virginia, and
Senator Isidor Rayner, of Maryland, ad.
dressed the second gigantic Democratic mass
meeting OF the campaign in Baltimore last
Monday evening. Six thousand people
were crowded into Richmond Market Hall
to hear the speeches, and hundreds, unable
to gain entrance, were addressed on the out
side by Col. Alexander s. Bacon, OF New
York. The Baltimore papers all agree that
the demonstration far outstripped that at
which Governor Hughes spoke in behalf of
Taft last week, both in point Of numbers and
enthusiasm.
Judge Parker, in his speech, gave Presi.
dent Roosevelt such scoring as he has not
heretofore received In this campaign, and
brought to their feet In a burst of applause
the entire audience when he said
when President Roosevelt so sweepingly
condemned Haskell for his alleged connec-
ton with the Standard Oil Company, he
perhaps forgot that in 1904 his (Roosev 81
committee received 100000 from the Stand
"iu vi SouPouy ioi Tue OahpoiSu Iuuu
and spent it,"
The speech Of Senator Daniel was a severe
arraignment of Republican misdoings and
brought hearty applause from the audience
Senator Rayner spoke in part as follows
awe want to carry Maryland for Bryan
and Kern. have given up almost every
appointment outside Of the State, aud pro-
pose to devote the greater part of my time
in an effort to carrying Maryland for Mr.
Bryan.
u like Mr. Bryan because he is a Demo.
crat. i like him because he is man. l like
him because he is 80 unlike the present
President of the United States. There have
been slight differences in the past between
Mr. Bryan and myself on the economic
questions, but these have passed away
~ have not word against Judge Taft
except he says he will follow In the foot
steps of Mr.. Roosevelt. Heaven forbid thai
he should outrival Mr.. Roosevelt, as some
say he will.
"There are great issues in this campaign
The Republican party proposes to tax the
whole people OF this country for the bene.
fit of the few. say to you that this taxa
ton OF the masses for the benefit of the
classes shall cease. say the people shall
rule.
81 am Democrat because l am against
Joe Cannon, the speaker of the House oil
Representatives, who has ruled that body
with tyrannical hand; who has tried to
emulate Tom Reed, and who has been the
steadlast friend OF the classes as against the
masses. say to you that Cannon and his
crowd shall be driven from the capitol as
the pagans OF old were driven from the
temple.
81 am also q Democrat because | am
against the President of the United States,
who has ignored the Constitution of the
United States. He has committed acts which
have led to the downfall of nations. His
tyranny shall cease.
"The time has come when this govern
ment must be restored to the people.
SNOW about this improvement business
Ii reminds me OF the German whose wife
was sent 10 nospitAi' nc CAlleu anu askeu

"'She is improving said the doctor.
again be called and again he was told
that his wife was improving. When again

He sought solace at q neighboring German
restaurant. q
".How is your wife, asked friend.
