THREE GREAT
MEETINGS HELD
VOTERS OP SOUTH SCRANTON
TURNED OUT IN FORCE.
Listened to tho Issues of the Cam
paign Discussed In Corcoran's,
Gallery's and Battle's Halls by
:on. W. L. Connell. Hon. C. P.
.'Malley, Hon. V. W. Fleltz and V.
T. Loughran Congressman Con
noil Was Expected but Was Not
Well Enough to Attend.
What is ordinarily accredited to be
one of the BtrongholdsW Democracy,
the Twentieth wnrd, was last night the
scene nt three of tho largest and most
enthusiastic Republican rallies that
have marked tho, present campaign.
The rallying points were Hnttle's hall,
on Prospect avenue, corner of Fig
street: Corcornn's hall, Cedar nvcntf,
and Callery's hall, on Plttston avenue,
near the city line. K.ieh of the halls Is
of very respectable dimensions, but
none of them was capable of seating
the crowds that assembled to hear Re
publican doctrines expounded nnd show
their loyalty to the party which
changed that expansive ward from a
pasture field to one of the busiest hlvo
of Industry In the United States.
Hon. William Connell was advertised
to bo one of the spenkers, and much
dinappolntment was 'evidenced by his
former neighbors that Illness prevented
him from being present. The disap
pointment, however, was made up for
in n great measure by the presence of
his nephew, Hon. W. ti. Council, ex
mayor of Scranton, who was born and
bred In that locality and who is proud
ly claimed ns one of the Twentieth
ward lads.
Other speakers who were heard nt
one or the other of tne meetings were
Hon. Charles P. O'Mnlley, former rep
resentative from tho Fourth Legisla
tive district; Deputy Attorney General
Fred W. Fleltz, Attorney J'. F. Lough
ran, Hon. John Schenur. Jr., represen
tative from the Second district and
candidate for le-electlon, and Hon. AV.
K. lleek, former representative from
the Third district imd candidate for
register of wills.
TURKU MRKTiNOS TIHLD.
Mesis. FIcitK, O'Malley, Connell and
Loughran spoke at Corcoran's hall;
Messrs. O'Malley and Beck, at Battle's
hall, and Messrs. Flolt::, O'Malley, Con
nell, Loughran and Scheuer at Callery's
hall. The meetings were held simul
taneously. By hurrying the speakers
In carriages from one hall to the other
it was possible to keep Republican elo
quence on tap continuously nt all throe
places from 7.43 until neaily 11 o'clock.
The Foiest band played for a time in
front of each hall early in the evening.
At Corcoran's hall the chahman was
Charles W. Slmrell. .Tames Shorten
was chairman of the meeting at Cal
lery's, and on the stage with him were
Thomas Griffiths and Peter McCarthy.
Hon. Alex. Connell was chairman of
the meeting at Battle's hall.
Kvcry issue of the campaign was In
telligently treated by the speakers, and
at each meeting their arguments were
listened to with close attention. That
the sentiments they expressed met with
the heartiest approval was evidenced
by tho most enthusiastic plaudits. At
Callery's hall u crowd of hoys, from
whom Hallowe'en had not sapped all
the mischief in their make-up, annoyed
the speakers at times with indiscrimin
ate nnd ill-timed shouts, but the adult
portion of the audience decried the in
terruptions and the urchins subsided.
The general trend of the speeches was
an exhortation to set aside party
prejudice, study up the men and meas
ures that are before the people in tlite
campaign, and vote for that which will
bring the greatest good to the greatest
number.
GROWTH OF THE WARD.
In his speech at Callery's hull, Mr.
Fleltv. drew attention to the wonderful
industrial growth of the Twentieth
ward, and asked if It was not true that
the very principles which Bryan has
said would send the country to the
denmlllon bow-wows had not been re
sponsible for the Twentieth waul be
coming on of the greatest Industilal
wards in any city in the I'nited States.
His reference to the part William Con
nell had played In the upbuilding of
the city In genet al, and the Twentieth
ward in particular, was iccelved with
the most enthusiastic applause.
Kx-.Uavor Council's popularity
among his old lime playmates was
evidenced by the big ovation he re
ceived at each of the places he spoke.
H addressed his heaicrs from tha
standpoint of n business mun and
urcpil upon them the extreme Import
ance of studying the issues of the
campaign with n practical eye, He
conveyed the regrets of Congressman
Connell at his Inability to be present
atirt bespoke for him in tho coming
election the same consideration given
hiin two yt-urs np-o when tho Twen
tieth wnrd voters raid such a line

Mr, O'Malley nnd Mr, Loughran went
extensively and Interestingly into a
discussion of tho main issues of tha
camp'tlt'n, and addressed themselves
particularly to tho younger men who
are hesitating as to 'which party they
will cast their lot with,
"fast your vote right n&xt Tuesday"
said Mr, O'Malley, directing his words
to tho young men, "and years from
now when McKlnley Is given a place
In hHiorv nlongMdo that of Washing

FATAL RESULTS OF
EXPLOSION OF GAS
William Middleton and John Russell
Die from Burns Received Thurs
day at the Mar vino Mine.
William M. Middleton, of Pal Iter
street, and John Rus-sell, of Carter's
court, died early yesterday morning
from burns received Thursday In an
explosion ot gas at the Marvlne mine.
IF BRYAN
Thirty Thousand-Dolfar Order Received by Harvey
Silk Company Will Be Void.
As an instance of the paralysis of business which the
business men of this country believe would follow the elec
tion of William Jennings Bryan as surely as the day follows
the night the fact may be mentioned that the Harvey Silk
company, of this city, has received an order for 30,000
worth of silk, contingent upon the re-election of Mr. Mc
Kinley. Speaking about this yesterday, Alfred Harvey,
senior member of the firm, said :
"Yes, it's true that we have received an order for
30,000 worth
Paterson, N. J.,
take goods only in the event of McKinley's election and will
leave them on our hands if by any possible chance Bryan
should be elected.
"That's only one case out of many. Orders are being
everywhere placed vwith manufacturers with the understand
ing that they are not to be filled if Bryan is elected. Why
is this? you ask. I'll tell you. It's because the business men
of this country are men of sound sense and realize that the
election of Bryan would mean a paralysis of the industries
of this country.
"Personally, I don't think our friend Bryan has a ghost
of a show. I've just returned from a trip through the west
and I met many men who were ardent Bryanites in 1896,
who are with McKinley this year, heart and soul. In my
opinion McKinley is going to carry California, Idaho, Ne
braska and several other states in the far west which are
generally conceded to Bryan."
Middleton died at the Hahnemann hos
pital, and Russell's life passed away at
his home, where he was removed im
mediately after the explosion.
Middleton was thirty-six years ot
nge, and is survived by a wife and two
children. Russell was about fifty years
of age, and a miner for., many yeais.
The funeral of Middleton will be held
at 1 o'clock tomorrow afternoon from
the residence, with interment at Lack
awanna. The accident which bore these fatal
results occurred Thursday afternoon,
while the two men were worklntr tcr
gether In one of the Marvlne chambers.
An amount of accumulated gas was
iirod by tho flame of a naked lamp,
iloth men's burns were chiefly about
the head and breast.

last night of a big Republican mass

was Just on great and Just as spon
taneous ns It was two weeks ago, when
the opening gun ot the campaign was
ftrod In that part ot the city.
The meeting was held In the Audi

characteristic addresses, dwelling es

to cover over nnd evade the free silver
plank in the Kansas City platform.
Mr. Thomas was lollowed by Mayor
Molr, who, after speaking for a few
moments on the national Issues, told
why every Republican should vote for
the straight Republican county ticket,
without a cut. He said:
A REPUBLICAN CONGRESS.
To suppoit Mr. McKinley wo nmit diet a
Republican cohkicss. Without a Republican
loner houw, till hands Mould be tied. It is our
duty to leturii the (oiigrexman fiom this dis

A certain number ot the house of common;
uai once aiked why he changed liN mind i-o
suddenly on a ceitalu qucitiun and he replied,
"It was in.v light to do so. 'that's heic a
nun differs from a jnek.i; the latter can vusef
chititto his mind." I feel like sajiiur something
nt that soil, became I feel thai I must Epe.ik
for Mr, -Council.
Ills IlepubllcuiiFni is unimpeachable and his
attention to public business has not hern ex
celled by any member of consicss. He haa
nluays made his pilrate inteiests and they
are man) auWriicnt to tho public welfare.
He is a man who is typical of this community
and that's just the kind of a man we want.
I was nddiciMii;; a meeting in Lackawanna
ft few il.ns ago and his name ui hissed by
a ten-, I turned and nsked his employes In the
audience, and thcro wcie maiir of Hum, if ha
hadn't kept his store open dining: the strike

that he hail, 1 feel eonlldent that Mr. Connell

veils.
Then there's Mr, I'ellonsj jou all know hU

sherilT ier,ulrrs a men pcMrlitf the very highest
character. You know that he's a good manj
n man nho can be inti listed with the enforce,
ineiit of (hn laws, and I am sure yo'i will all
Mite for him.
TIIK JUPICIAlir,
There has been a ereat deal ot talk about
non
i-partltan bench, but tlicre's not much in It.
vn In Sclinl.vMH county tliej'tc got three
now
Democratic Judges already and nmr thej're irolnif
to elect a fourth. That's the way the Pemoerats
do when it comes doun to acting:, I don l think
that the Republican .otns of the county should
bo dictated to by thiee lawyers who hao started
all this talk about u non-partisan bench. You
have no business to ote for any one thv.e three
men say you lOioiild ote for, but you should vote
for Geoige M. Wattou, the Republican candidate.
Don't split (he ticket.
Then, there' Joe Scranton, the Hon. Joseph
Scranton I suppose I should call him, but I
can't somehow, tho man who has given so much
ot this time to .io Republican paity, who was,
in (act, one of the (oundeis of that parly in
this county, This nuui woo has lepresented you
so ably in congress, asla join" support (or
county Ircasmer. Ho !"t heait u few dajs ago
when his wife died and is now depending on hi)
loyal supporters to help him out. You'll licl'i
him, I'm sure, each and every one ol jon.
The candidate (or district attorney, W. It.
I.cwli, is one ol the most obliging young lawyer!
In this city; a man who possewes all the neces
sary qualifications, who is well lersed in the
law and who is full of Integrity and the spirit
ot fair ploy, just the man we want in this office.
The candidate (or prothonolary, John Cope
land, is the most modest man in the county and
he' a Scotchman it that, lie comrs from
Carbomlnlc, which decrui much nt our liandi,
ml for (he lat three yeirs lint paid strict el

W, K. Reek, the Republican r.indld.i'.e (or

been defeated several tlnifs, but he always
hobs up again nnd this time I think lie'd bobbed
up to atny up. He ti from the (arming illitrlrt,
which rccehes ery little recognition from the
pnrly, but which Is deserving ot It. The work
ol the candidate for Jury commissioner speaks
for Itself.
The candidate for the Irglsl.diire from this
district, T. .1. Rej nobis, Is n bright and brainy
young man, who it deserving of .our ery ear
ne.st support. It Is extremely ncrcssiry that
this city should be repiesenled In the wt
legislature by a capable mm, because much
legislation affecting the city's Intereits must
be passed and must be championed by a man
with a lei p head on his shoulders.
In conclusion, I desire to Impress upon you
all. th( great nml urgent necessity of gelling
out the vole and of doing nit In your power lo
elect tho entire Republican ticket. Devote the
Hay to It, It you enn, and If not, at least d
vote a part of It.
' MR. VREELAND'S ADDRESS.
The mayor was followed by Hon. S.
S. Vreeland, of New Jersey, a forceful
and eloquent speaker, who held tho
eloae attention of the audience for over
half an hour with his able presentation
of tho campaign Issues. Among other
things, he said:
The recent mine strike which convulsed this
part of the country woa n .ueees.slul strike
more because of the prevailing good times,
which nre the direct risult ot a Republican
admlniatr.ilion, than (or nny other reason. It
the operators had not been obliged to send
coal to the great factories all over tho country;
If tho majority cf thcio factories were rlosed
down, ns they generally nte during a Democratic
administration, the miner might have got down
on his knees to the operators and begged tn
hae been taken baok at the old wages to ro
avail.
T.onk behind every one ot the false issues
which the Democratic party has raised Ibis
3-ear, nnd you'll find the silver lining of Ifl to 1.
Thrre is only one real issue in this campaign,
and that's (he free silver Issue. We have Mr.
Bryan's own words. He said:, "If any man be
lieves in the gold standard, he shouldn't vole
for me, because I will do everything In my
power to overtluo'v ltv" Thill win in 18'iG, but
'he free sliver plank is In the platform again
this .vear and Mr. Ilr.van i In honor bound, if
elected, to carry out the piinciptes laid down
in that pltitfoim.
Mr. Vreeland at this point entered
into a logical refutation of the free
silver arguments of Mr. Bryan, and
told of the dire results which would
follow the adoption of uny such finan
cial policy. "Mr. Bryan might Just as
well say," said he, "that you can make
a two-foot man into a six-foot man by
act of congress as to say that with the
ratio of 16 to 1 you can make good dol
lars In unlimited quantities out of fifty
cents worth of silver." Continuing, he
said:
If Br.van's svnipathy with the jellovv people
0,1X10 miles away is tint cue, one would think lhat
some little client of affection in his heait would
lie touched at the spectacle presented by the
Democratic party in the .South, which is again
seeking to put the h:iiklcs on the bl,v I; man,
for whose freedom ,ou men, many nf you,
fought mi bravely. They'ie limiting his power
of suffrage so (hat ho can't vote, hut Mr. Ilr.van
looks on and Bays nothing.,
If you men of Lickawniina county don'l give
Mr. .McKinley a big maforlty and re-elect Mi.
Connell, I'll turn my b.uk on you when 1 come,
again. Get the vote out and let th's lie one
of the banner Republican counties of this great
Republican state.
