Big Mass Meeting IS Address
ed BY MIR. Carrigan, the
Nominee.

q y s. e.
The great mass meeting last night
at Salem put crimp into the DEM
ocrats to use street term. The hne
turnout convinced the Democrats
peanut petitions that all was not well
with the Democrats party in TenmiIe
district. When the Democratic ''fay-
orite" son spoke there several nights
ago, a great shout went up from the
Democratic machine camp that he
was the man. but last nights meeting
of Republicans has dampened the
Democratic gangs ardor and that its
members should be looking a little
blue today is not at all strange.
The opera house was packed and
standing room was at. premium at
the Carrigan meeting there last night
and the intense interest and enthusi-
phasize the fact that Tenmile dis
asttc demonstrations engaged in en-
trict intends to roll up great Re
publican majority this year.
Mr. Carrfgan made a strong argu-
ment in favor Of Republican policies
and handled the Democratic theory
Of tree trade without gloves.
Those who had heard Mr. Carri-
gan previously in the campaign pro-
nounce his Salem speech the best
and most convincing he has made in
Harrison county and he was ac-
corded frequent and enthusiastic
applause.
Attorney John C. Southern. of this
city, discussed county and other is
sues in a very neat speech. The
meeting lasted two hours.
Wesley L. Steele, committeeman.
called the big assemblage to order
and named Charles A. Schultz as
chairman of the meeting. The lat
ter very cIeverly introduced the
speakers. The Salem band furnish

accurately and picturesquely all I'M
portant issues in the present cam
paign. and makes one of the strongest
pocket-edition campaign documents
that the Republican party has issued
to West vf.ginlans this year:
oF,verv prediction made by the Dem
ocrats conccrring' West virgInin's new
tax laws has been nuIIiHed by expert
erce and shattered by facts They
said these laws would increase the
+axes of the plain people; the facts
are. nine taxpayers out OF every ten
have had their taxes reduced They
said 1t was n scheme backed by the
corporations, but the people knew that
those laws have been resisted by the
corporations in every possible way
since their enactment They loudly
proclaimed that the change in the
methods OF taxing the banks OF the
state would drive deposits from our
own banks into those of adjoining
states, Instead OF this result, the de-
posIts in our state and National banks
have increased over thirty millions or
dollars since the new tax laws were
passed. This increase is practically
double the entire deposits of the banks
OF the state after twenty-six years OF
Democratic supremacy.

en- investors away from West Virginia
