MONTROSE NON-PARTIsAN
PICNIC WAS A FROST

Altho the Nonpartisan Lacquer
captured the Republican organizatio
in Montrose county, il is evidentl
not a very enthusiastic bunch. Tn
of that city reports a re
cent rally Of the organization as fol
vows:
The Nom Partisan League picnic
and great political rally adver-
tised for Wednesday at Hasel's
Park, failed to function. The
newspaper reporters of the
Montrose Enterprise seemed to
have forgotten to attend and no
one living in Monrose could be
found that morning who went to
the park except Mr.. McFadden
and we are therefore dependent
on him for what happened.
There happens to have been
no picnic" said Mr.. McFadden,
"and it was a small crowd;
very small crowd that finally got
together Mt four o'clock to hear
0. Il. Thompson, a lecturer who
came from Denver to enjoy q pic
mic and talk to the Leaguers. In
fact the crowd was so SMALL"
said McFadden, "that Mr.. Thomp-
son roasted those who were not
there for their lack of enthus-
iasm."
"Well, what did he say?" ask
ed the reporter.
"He said that when he reached
Montrose hungry for cake and
chicken, no one met him at the
train. He inquired for and walk
ed to the park at the hour set
for the picnic and was disappoint-
ed and disgusted to find one auto
mobile standing there In the tin
ber. Then he walked back to
town and bought his dinner and
it was about four o'clock" said
Mack, "when l heard him talking
to the few who had assembled by
that time. OF all the meetings
he had ever attended, he said,
"that was the smallest"
On being urged to tell who
were present, Mr.. McFadden
enumerated only four, but said
that there wee many whom he
did not know. y
