Ll BERLIN NEWS REPUBLICAN RALLY -~ REALLY BIG EVENT Foresters’ Hall Packed to Hear Campaign Arguments " QUOTES DEMOCRATIC PAPER Stevens Says Osborne of New Haven Predicts Republican Victory—Hold- en Flays League of Nations—Other News Items of Interest. One of the greatest rallies ever held by any party in the town of Berlin took place in Foresters’ ball last night The hall was filled and many were forced to stand In the rear and on the front steps. Henry Deming welcomed the crowd and appointed Claude Stevens as chairman Mr. Stovens thanked those present for coming and sald he voiced the at- titude of the republican party in doing so. He told of how N, G. Osborn, editor-in-chief of a New Haven demo- eratic paper, had sent the following news to his paper: “I have been in Ohlo attending the American prison congress. I have beon able to check up the bank pres- fdent with the man on the street, and to compare notes with the newspaper- men who have been trailing the strug- &le from its start and to whom Gover- mor Cox and Harding are familiar fig- ures, Togother we are In an agree- ment that Senator Harding will be elocted in a sweeping style and.that he will carry the state of Ohio by a majority of from one to two hundred thousand. While talking about Hard- ing, a leading manufacturer of Marion who s a democrat, whom I met at the Marion club, summed him up this way ‘Every man, woman and child in this democratic city loves Warren Harding and his wife. If he has an enemy here I never heard of him."” Holden Gives Talk. Mr. Stevens then introduced Bene- diet Holden of Hartford, who deliv- ered a speech that “hit home” in many mstances and was well applaud- ed. He said: “I am always happy to speak to Berlin people, I am going to ask the support of every candidate on the republican ticket without a peal to racial or religious prejudice. I think that every candidate seeking wlection on such prejudice should be foated nations has come before the peo- fi. in my time so that I will have strength enough to help put it into the oblivion. There is no room for #ny other issue in this campaign but the league of nations. I am make no personal critieism of Wilson, but it remains for Mr. Wilson to say people when I say that we will be #lad to have a new cabinet in Wash. | ington We will have a cabinet with intelligent men and with a president who will insist ‘they run it without his Interference. Our cherished stitution always brought happiness. but it remain for Mr. Wilson te say: ‘I eame to speak to you of a cause greater than the senate, greater than the government whe: I thank God that the league | going to | | Tradition in- | $1.75, brown and grey, fur trimmed, $2.00 and $3.50 pair. ¥4 3 lined, Cold ~ defying ——————————————————————— HAVING AN Amqom DELIVERY FOR NEW BRITAIN YOU CAN DEPEND ON PROMPTLY RECEIVING ALD DRY GOODS PURCHASED OF US can be no cause greater than the gov- ernment, but it remained for Wilson to enunciate the theory that there could be a cause for which so many have died. “You remember when you received word for the first time, over two years ago, that the armistice had been signed. You were electrified because you wanted peace, We all wanted peace and it was universally prayed fo all over the world. Then Wilson went to Paris. For what, we did not know until he came home and told us of the proposed league and the covenaifts prepared behind locked doors. The league was at first halled as a great thing by many educated people in the entire world. Some even did so with- out reading it or knowing what was in it. The Wilson sentiment in favor of the league was started By his own ‘sucker list’. “There are some women in Berlin lking about cutting the ticket gainst Brandegee. He was opposed to the league and Article 23 which these .women say must be allowed. They will find, however, that the sign- ing of this article would give other nations the traffic of our women and children and opium. Mothers of Ber- lin, women of Berlin, you should thank God that Frank Brandegee did not put his seal on this article. In Hartford there are many democratic women wha are thankful that he did not sign it. Has Not Stopped War. ““The people of the nation are in accord that we should not be bound to any comtract. But if we were to join the league we would find~ that England has six votes to our one. Even though the league of nations is in vogue with the nations signing it, it has not stopped the Bolsheviki war in Poland. Poland, as a member, ap- pealed to Japan for help. Japan re- plled that she had no time to help another nation. Then Poland went to Italy. Italy said she is having enough trouble of her own Then she went to France. France said: “Sure we signed the league of nations, but we have Moroeco to look after. We will, however, provide you with a general. Then Poland goes to England. Lloyd George gave her this reply: ‘It is true we are members of the league, but the only mation in the world that has the men and money to do whai you want done has not as yet joined the league.’ Without doubt he was refer- ring to the U. 8. “Another thing that still is not clear to me is why some of our boys are in northern) Siberta and guarding the coal mines of France. All, or the majority of these boys have written home asking why they arc forced to stay over there. But there is one answer to that. They will be there until the fiftth of March, when War- ren Harding takes the chair as presi- dent of the United Sttes, then they will come home, In a final appeal I say that we want a man who is a man for president. In closing let me say that both Harding and Brandegee will be elected to office on the strength of their records and manhood.” Mrs. Joseph Alsop. Mrs. Joseph Alsop of Avon, nlece to the late Theodore Roosevelt, was the next speaker. In short she said: “Women af Berlin, there are three things to take into consideration when you decide to vote. They are (1) in the party: (2), Candi- date; (3) The issues. These, when balanced, make up the reasons as to which way you should vote. ““The republican party gave us our basic principles and it was through Abraham Lincoln that the union was preserved. It was Roosevelt and Mc- Kinley who made this country to be a world power, That means that the traditions of the republican party | Sunday. right. They said to be prepared. The democrats did not. They said to be neutral. In the real issue of today the republican party is calling to be- ware. They are right and the dem- ocrats are wrong. - “The présent issue is the league of nations, The democrats say that Harding is far it in some of his speeches and against it in others. This is absolutely false and Harding himself says so. Before voting for the ledgue of nations, see what it guaran- tees first. "“As for the candidates, doubt Harding is the best. Cox has many things against him, especially w2—Bdu ,pTongiSthffft etaoi shrdl r the editorials that appeared in his newspaper. Although he did not write them he was responsible for what ap- peared in the paper. Harding is a strong, keem and firm voter. He has vonderful record behind him. e will now talk about our own state. There are three candidates seek- ing election to the senate from Con- necticut. They are Mrs, Bennett, Lon- ergan and Brandegee. All that I can say here is that Brandegee is the aonly one of the three who says a thing and sticks to what he says. As for Everett J. Lake, landslide for him. Francis Deming Talks, «Francis Deming, the republican nominea for representative to the Assembly, was e next to speak. In a few short remarks he thanked tho without town for nominating him and asked | their support. He also thanked W. H. Gibney for offering his assistance.
