DR.. WOODS HUTCHINSON
GIVES STIRRING TALK
CONTINUED from page ~

stepped to the speakers rostrum
Immediately after the conclusion of
an address by DR.. Woods Hutchin-
son, and proceeded to speak TO the
crowd in Mr.. Browns interests with
out any Introduction from Acting
Chairman Samuel G.. Garretson. Mr..
Prentiss came, he said, not only to
speak for Mr.. Brown, but to make a
personal explanation Of his with
drawal to the people of Perth Amboy
who had so generously supported
him during the early days of his
candidacy.
DR.. Hutchinson, of New York,
proved to be one of the best cam
paign orators Bull Moosism has
heard in this city. He discussed the
physicians attitude toward the Pro-
gressive party, and their desire to
see enacted many Of the planks Of
that party's platform. DR.. Hutchin-
son made special reference to the
child labor measure, minimum wage
for women, eight-hour day and COM
%pensation for injured workmen. Re-
lief for these existing evils can be
found in the election of the Progress
sive candidates, the speaker asserted.
The doctor took occasion to severely
roast the courts of justice, not only
in several states, but in the nation
as we'll. He declared that they are
400 years behind the times, and
proud of the fact. The crowd gave
him a big demonstration at conclu-
sion.
Mrs. Frank-A. Pattison, of Colo
mia, arrived late from a South River
meeting, but, nevertheless, was well
received. She spoke from a woman's
side and thoroughly discussed the
Progressive planks with the 100
women present. Mrs. Pattison be-
lieves that the advancement of the
Progressive cause will mean the
elimination of poverty and 1ntemper-
ance. She was given a great recep-
ton by the crowd.
John Duffy, secretary Of William
Dinwiddie. of Metuchen, chairman oil
the Progressive County Committee
and himself a secretary of that com
mittee, addressed the meeting pre-
paratory to Mrs. Pattison's arrival.
