college yells on his appearance on the
stage and at the conclusion of his talk

Brown and Hon. William McEniry
Make Speeches.

AnothAr enthusiastic democratic
rally was held last evening, this time
at Andalusia, where the voters gath
cred at the town hail to hear the is
sues of the campaign discussed. The
hall was packed with voters. and the
addresses were given earnest atten-
ton. Otto Heinze of Andalusia pre-
sided as chairman OF the evening.
Candidates Speak.
Robert R. Reynolds, candidate for
states attorney. and DR.. NJ. ]. O'Hern,
candidate for coroner, made brief talks,
in which they stated the basis on
which they are making their cam
paigns. The business-like attitude of
both won them hearty applause and
many expressions of appreciation.
II. l.. Wheelap. candidate for state
representative. spoke briefly, stating
that if elected he will devote his time
and ability to the people of the state,
and particularly % the people OF this
district He stated that he stands
squarely on the democratic platform.
o. E. Brown of Andalusia spoke on
the trust problem, and discussed the
attitude of the democratic party tc.
ward the masses. He argued that the
democratic party has always been the
party of the people and opposed to
combines and trusts. He held that

up by the operation of the protective

.0n Bank Guarantee.
Hon. William McEniry ably discuss
ed the main national issues, devotins
particular attention to the question OF
national bank deposit guarantee. He
showed that since 1865 only oue-twen
tieth of l per cent would have been
required to pay all losses to deposit
ors by reason Of the failure of ma
tional banks. He impressed the point
that bank guarantee will not encour
age reckless banking, because before
the bank guarantee fund is touched
all of the capital stock and other as
sets of the bank will be taken to pay
off depositcrs.

GET RICH STRIKE IN MINE
Former Rock Islander and Partner
Find Gold Vein in Nevada.

News has been received here from
Gold Circle, New, telling of a lucky
strike in a gold mine of former Rock
Islander James Boyle, resident OF
this city some 25 years ago, in partner
ship with another man, leased mine
known as the Esmeralda, and they
have been tunneling for some time.
Lately they struck very rich vein of
collaborating ore, some of which will
run as high in value as $4,000 per ton.
They will work the vein for all it is
worth. and as it runs clear across their
mine they will probably be made rich.
