sion to intervene in the case and
fight the proposed reduction in the
express tariffs.
This is regarded as clearly indi-
eating that the Interstate Com.
merce Com mission will order into
effect Il new schedule of express
rates. The rates may not be the
same as those published by Inter-
State Commerce Commissioner Lane,
but they will be along those lines.
The express companies will also
be notified by the commission that
schedule of express tariffs will be
completed soon, and the express
companies will then be given 80
days to make an estimate of the
effect of such rates upon the ac-
tual business of the express COM
panies.
1t is now believed that by the
first of the coming year American
shippers will have the benefit not
enfy Of cheaper express rates for
the small psckage, but the cheaper
rates of parcels post.

BIG MASS MEETING.
Auditorium Packed With Large
Crowd Which Gathered To
Hear The Political Issues
Discussed.

Despite the heavy fall of rain on
Sunday and the continued threat
| ening condition of the weather all
| day yesterday, large crowd gath
cred last night at the Auditorium
| to hear the issues of the present
campaign discussed by Congressman
J. Harry Covington and State Sena-
tor Blair Lee. Senator Gardiner, of
| Maine, was expected to be present,
but missed his connection in some
way, having Left Oil City, Pa, Sun
day for Philadelphia, from which
point he was expected to go direct
ly to Easton on the noon train.
Judge W. Laird Henry was the
presiding officer and in calling the
meeting to order made a very eff
fective presentation of the issues of
the campaign, dwelling particularly
upon the moral awakening which is
evident in all parts of the country
against vote buying and other
abuses. Judge Henry introduced as
the first speaker Congressman Gov
ington, who made an unusually
strong speech, said by many to have
been one of the strongest presenta-
tions upon the tariff question that
they have ever heard, either in
Cambridge or elsewhere. Using the
advertisements that had appeared
in the Saturday Evening Post, he
showed that many of the manufac-
turers of the country had opened
agencies all over the civilized world
and that they were driving foreign
factories out of business by under
selling them right in their own
homes, in most cases selling the
same goods abroad at very much
less than they sell them at home.
Congressman Covington was fol-
lowed by Senator Blair Lee, who
had arrived on the Texas. The
Senator urged upon his hearers the
Importance of every voter taking an
interest in elections, and paid
glowing tribute to the primary cleo
ton, which he said gave the voter
chance going and coming for
good government.
The Senator paid glowing trib-
ute to Congressman Covington, who
was, he said, to his own personal
knowledge, one of the ablest and
best representatives in the House,
hard working, attentive to duty and
always anxious to advance the cause
of the people. He also paid tribute
to the late Gov Austin L. Croth-
ers, whose administration had seen
the accomplishment of so much
constructive legislation. Senator
Lee was heartily applauded when
he appeared upon the stage, show
ing that he still continues to be a
great favorite with the people of
the county.
