A UNDERTAKING. SPEECH.
E. F. Hanson, of Maine, Shamefully Vii
Iifes His Native State.

1.-THE Harlowton, Montana, Press, Oct, l4th.
A good-sized audience assembled in the
Harlowton opera house Monday night to listen
to an anti-prohbition address by E. f. Hanson,
proclaimed as lone of the leading editors of
Maine." Preceding the meeting. the Harlow
ton Concert band rendered several admirable
open air selections.
1t was hardly speech which Mr.. Hanson
made. being more of TRADE against the peo-
pie of Maine, the churches and the temperance
organizations. and if what he said concerning
conditions in the Pine Tree State is true, Maine
is,without any qlestion,an unfit place in which
to live. According to him, every sheriff elect
ed to office in that State is crook, policemen
are scoundrels. practically every citizen is a
perJurer, many of the women are of question
able reputation, and the residents of tnat COM
monwealth have little, if any, conception of
common decency.
AS q bombastic boaster, Mr. Hanson has
them all cheated. For thirty years. to hear
him relate it, he has been the beacon light of
the blind pigging slums. upe his shoulders de-
volved the responsibility of upholdng the dig
nifty of the boot-leggers, and he has taken
the scalps in joint deuste of fifteen temperance
speakers of national reputation.
Most of MIR. Hanson's audience came to hear
him out of sheer curiosity, and it was apparent
that very few of his listeners were in sympa-
thy with the manner in which he slandered his
State and its citizens. How he could, for a
mere mercenary consideration, descend to such
vlllfication of his fellow. citizens is something
beyond the grasp OF clean minded people.
