The meeting was a great success.
1t shows that the militant numbers
of the Democratic Party are awake.
and that they arc not going to- lie
quiet and permit Il campaign of mis-
representation and abuse, such as
were engaged in by our republican
friends from 1913 up until tho cleo

this meeting as we would Like but
