Congressman LOnersan and Mayor
 DuttOn Arrive Unexpectedly
6. 0. P. RALLY TOMORROW
Win Be Held in Forcstcrs' HaIl-vay- ana to Spcak-IIot Fight Staged in kensinRton-ManyA Attend Party nt School-Bcrlin Bits.

> In quoting the words of prominent democrat. the biggest. longest and best rally ever held tn Berlin took place last night at Forcsters' hall. There was an array of speakers on tho program, prominent among them being Congressman Augustine Loner- gan. Mayor Dutton of Bristol Judge and Mrs. Keller of Hartford. and Miss Adele Murray of this town.
 St. Paul's drum corps provided tho music. Emil Marzano, the Italian speaker. who was booked to ap- pear, was not present as it was neces- sary to for him to go to New Lon don. MT. Paola was sent as a substi- tute and spoke to the Italians in their own language and in what seemed to be very convincing manner.
 Judge Smith of Hartford said that there was a great challenge to America before the world. The only answer to the challenge is to join the league of nations now. It was his contention that America join it within the shortest possible time.
 Throughout his entire speech Mir. Smith paid a wonderful tribute to President Woodrow Wilson.
 Neither Mrs Keller nor Mayor Out ton talked very long. In a very few words Mrs. Keller made a straight ap- peal for tho democratic answer at the elections on Tuesday She said that many women as well as men who arc going to vote in this campaign know nothing of the big Issue and have never read the covenanto of the league of nations. Mayor eutton. who has been supported by both the democratic and republican party in the city of Bristol. appealed to the people to vote for him at the polls on Tuesday. He is running for con gress.
 Congressman Lonergan dwelt large Iy on the league of nations question as well s hts past record. Tn comparing his record with tho record of Bran degoe. he said that his Is n progressive one whereas his competitors is re- nctionary.
 Miss Murray then spoke on child welfare and told those present that victory doesn't always mean success nor does deceit always mean failure. Stage Warm Eight

Democrats Hold Forth at Grange
 Hall
LONERGAN GIVES ADDRESS
Grange Plans Halloween Social Splitting Ticket on Voting Machines Confusing-Welfare Conference Att tendance Small-Brief. Items.

The democrats rally held at the Grange Hall last night. proved to be one of the most successful ever held in the town. The hall was crowded and the women in attendance were by far larger in number than the men.
 Professor Hawkins of the Hartford High school was the first speaker and spoke on the league of nations. Every article up to the 18th was thoroughly explained by Professor Hawkins and their importance to the administration to the people. ''The league must be recognized" said the professor, and it is your duty to vote for it.
 Mayor Joseph Dutton of Bristol de- clared: Should I be elected, I will dig into the problem of punishing the profiteers who have drained the people of their money and other things" He stated that he would not throw any mud at his opposing candi- date and ventured to say that F. Hart Fenn was personal friend of his and considered him a gentleman. How ever he said, he would be defeated. That he would try to exert all power possible if elected to the congress, to have things passed that would be of benefit to the first district, was assured by Mayor Dutton.
 Augustine Lonergan was received with applause. He urged every person to stand back of the league as it stood, for the welfare of the country. Speaking of Brandegee, MT. Lonergan reviewed some of his past records and compared them to what should have been done.
 T know what it is to have sons in .II e, said, And I can appreciate the feel ings of every mother present at the prospects of another war; vote for the league and you will not be wor- ried by the war coming again; it is your duty as a woman voter to do this. The covenant has been explained to you and when you go to the polls Tuesday, vote the straight democratic ticket" Mrs. Kellar went on to say that those mothers opposing the league were sending their sons to, war.

many men. while they do indeed maize
