Mr. Clark started out by paying the large audience and the city of Rich Hil, the ‘most enterprising town in the Southwest,” a very hand- some tribute. He said at the last election, when the Democratic ticket as the returns arrived at Butler, would say to each other “Wait till you hear from Rich Hill.” It was Rich Hill and Osage township by its 600 majority, that saved the county to the party. ‘Every word,” he continued, “that will be spoken by me this evening will be uttered with the greatest respect to the per- ;sonal cpinions of others” He cvn- {sidered the Republicans and Popu | lists just as honest as the De |All had the lgrand o}d state.
