It was, iowevea, only a jorerunner of future Republican {events. ‘Lhe shadows are failing upon the pathway, and ‘Luesday night’s bungie 1s an indication ot the posubail- ities for the rest of the campaign. | Atthe meeting following the parade, | the ladies eaciiy found good seats in | the front portion of Village hall. The | music of the band attracted the gen- eral public and transient visitors who increased the audience. Still, there was plenty of room for more. ‘he | speaker ot the evening, Mr. R. R. | Briggs, of Duluth, was introduced by | Eduor A, G. Bernard. Mr. Briggs filled in the gaps with numerous stories where he found that his at- tempts at argument failed to enthuse and his lively movements on the stage were quite interesting. Betweeu. fix- ing his collar and smoohting his hair; his arms, hands and flugers were kept in busy motion, Alter this pantomime had progressed for half an “hour the audience began to leave the hall. At the close of an hour the exit was so noticeable that the speaker requested all that did not care to remain until the end, to” go at once, and quite a number departed. ‘he speaker said he had been notified that just sucha clecr- ing out was to be expect-d,and continu- ing, Be turned his attention to the lavortng men saying that he would re- serve a chapter ou ‘Towne and Mor- nis for the conclusion, is remarks to the wage earners were interrupted by an alarm of fire and the audience rose en masse although the spezker claimed that it was only a sell. ‘Lhe fire laddies Got the apperatus out of Gladstone was besieged with those ; on Mr. Doran for a few remarks and |’ ‘Three cheers'| vice president, M.
