club, Sept. %, would take three-day

car platform at points net scheduled
for set addresses, and would complete
the trip by addressing an audience at
the Rock Island exposition the after

Rock Island exposition He will speak
at the ball park in the afternoon of
Oct. 2, and another orator of national
reputation will be secured for the
same evening, negotiations being now
pending with the national speakers

Mr.. Sherman was secured by J. w.
Parker and @. r. Nourse of the exposi-
ton directory after three days of
strenuous work in the republican ma
tional headquarters, Chicago. Their
task was not finished till today after
they had returned home, a message

speakers bureau, either state or ma
tional, for any one town on any one
day during the campaign. Usually it
is considered enough to give city any
one of the three at some time during
the campaign, but to get them all
three in one day is an honor indeed.
1t is needless to speak of Bryan and
Stevenson. Ex-Governor Lind is one
of the strongest speakers on the stump
for the democratic cause this year, and
a treat is assured all who hear him.
He and former Vice President Steven
