Dr. l.. l.. Hubbard. at Patriotic
Meeting, Denounces DeNiltry of
Germans.

The second OF series of patriot,
meetings to be held at the Crane
Opera House was addressed yester
day afternoon by Rev. +. l.. Hub
/ bard There was a large crowd pres
! ent. and had the day been less blus
! try there would not have been room
! enough in the theatre to accommo
! date them. In the absence of Mr.
| I. SangSton lnSley, who was to have
! presided, the meeting was put in
charge of former Congressman 10
| siah l.. Kerr, who made few intro
ductory remarks, later reading a
telegram from former Governor
Phillips Lee Goldsborough, who was
to have made an address, but was
unavoidably detained in Baltimore.
The principal speaker was Rev.E.
l.. Hubbard, who in his address at
the first patriotic meeting held this
winter, made such an impression up
on his audience that there were nu-
merous requests for him to speak up
on this occasion. DR.. Hubbard did
not mince words, he denounced the
Kaiser and his militaristic party. He
spoke of the food which the German
soldiers receive-the very best wheat
and grain that Germany produces.
The Kaiser lets them want nothing
that Will please their appetite, and
to satisfy their sensual desires he
feeds them on The virgins of Belgium
and France
DR.. Hubbard also attacked the
German atrocities in the strongest
language at his command, and de-
plored the fact that a nation, the
leader of which claimed partnership
with God, should be guilty of such
vile acts. He even spoke of the
Teutons placing bombs inside their
own people, and placing them in No
Mans Land, where, if they were
touched by the American soldiers,
the corpses would explode and blow
the men to atoms.
The speaker referred to Uncle
Sam and his dealing with the coun-
tries of the globe. Uncle Sam new
er struck friendly or helpless ma
ton" he said She would never
have invaded Belgium or devastated
the fields of France" he continued.
and while his audience applauded
loudly he told of how the men in
khaki and blue must meet and con-
quor the Hun in order that the eagle,
which is symbolic of the United
States, may be able to life his wings
and continue to soar as free bird.
DR.. Hubbard was preceded by DR..
Brice w. Goldsborough, and sue
ceeded by Col. Albanus Phillips, who
impressed upon their audience the
Importance of letting patriotism and
thrift 60 hand in hand. When Col.
! Phillips asked for a pledge of loyalty
to the President and the Govern
ment from the people there was not
a single person left sitting.
