THE LATE RALLIES. Wednesday eve
ming the Democrats held a rally in the
Armory that was considered their best by
interested members of both parties. Hon.
Robert F. Dunton introduced the princi-
pal speaker, Congressman Homer B.
Cummings of Connecticut. He spoke in
only three cities in Maine and everyone
who was following the National issues
were eager to listen to him. The fact
that he was chairman of his party's Ma
tional Convention also added to our in
terest. His address was a clear and con-
else resume of what he conscientiously
believed and he was eloquent and fluent
of speech Mrs. H. W. Wilson Of New
York addressed her remarks to the wo-
men of the party, but she was followed
very closely in every principal point by
| the women present from the Republican
| party. Mrs. Wilson is one of the promi-
nent suffra gists of the country and
knows how to present her arguments
and assist her sister Democrats. She
held a private conference with them
after the rally and Mrs. Edgar F. Hanson
do OH Of oft
chairman. Thursday at 5 D. m. Miss Ed
wards, who was assisting the Republican
women in the city and county, addressed
about 80 of them in the Court House 1t
was fine example of the effect of organ
ization when in response to general re-
quest for information as to certain ques-
tons it was possible to assemble this
gathering and also to provide an able
speaker in brief time. Miss Edwards
was speaking IN Waldo, where she was
reached and urged to come to Belfast for
this specific purpose. Her address was
both interesting and instructive. The
Republican rally in the Armory Satur-
! day evening was their record breaker
Judge Clyde B. Chapman, chairman of
he city committee, presided. Cong.
Thomas S. Crago of Pennsylvania made
one of the campaign speeches that will
live in the memory of every woman who
was looking for the truth. He did not
tridicule his opponents, he argued for his
own cause. He was convincing from
start to finish and the closing sentences
were eloquent in the extreme and were
accompanied by manly and patriotic
personality of a true American. Mrs.
Frank Hall of Worcester won the admir-
alton of her large audience of both sexes
as she appealed to the best principles of
all. Her ardent earnestness was conta-
gious as she emphasized the salient
points of weakness in the Democrats and
strength of the Republicans Her loyal
ty to Gov Coolidge was most apparent.
Mayor Frank w. Hinckley of South
| Portland also gave an excellent address
on State and National issues and sent
the audience away in good spirits.
