Hon. T. J. Cleeton. of Portland
Hosed the Republican catnpHlKii In
Polk county Friday night with
rousing speech. An lnt-rtliig mu
aU al -program was rendered to open
the niwtlti consisting of an insplr
In aong aung by MUs Lora Craven
entitled "Just Borne One," and
violin selection by Charles E. lilt ka
who played the f-umwit "Meludy In
F," by Hubltmteln.
The question of bank deposit guar
antee, Injunction, corporation llcetiHo,
were shown In Mr. Clifton's speech
to be Impracticable. Also the ques
tion of "Shall the People Rule?" wan
taken up and shown to be a dma
goglc appeal made by the Democratic
party for the purpose of arousing the
prejudice of the people ax&lnst the
Republican party. The attitude of
Mr. Dryan before the American peo
ple was criticised and he was likened
to a quack doctor who bad diagnos
ed the ills of bis patient and who
had prescribed a remedy which he
now admits would have been fatal
had that remedy been applied. Mr.
Dryan was criticised as having allied
himself with Tammany Hall and Ross
Murphy, Boss Sullivan and the men
whom be has heretofore denounced
as being the hirelings of Wall street
and as big a gang of boodlers and
corruptlonists as ever Infested a free
country. He showed that the Repub
lican party bad In the last twelve
years done more for the laboring
people, more for the farmer, and
more for the business interests of the
country, and more to bring about
honesty 'n politics than any other
party in the history of our country
had ever done. He contrasted Mr.
Bryan's record of promises with the
actual performances of William H.
Taft, and appealed to the people to
stand by the man who bad been
tried for twenty-five years as a public
servant and who has never made a McMlnnvllU, : : : : Oregon
blunder or performed a single act;,.. a .
.. . , . , i Chas. Gregory, Jtgt., Dallas. Ore.
that reflected upon h a character as a
a man. lie appealed to the people
to stand by the policies of the pres
ent administration and to cast fhelr
votes for William H. Taft, who is
pledged to enact those policies into
law, and to complete what has been
so ably begun by President Roose-
velt.
It was quite evident from the en
tl.usiasm at the meeting that ,Polk
county would be in line with a large
v ajorlty for William H. Taft and the
continuance of the policies of the
present administration, and the in
surance of . business prosperity for
another four years.- It is estimated
that the audience numbered about
800 people, and Interest was very
earnest.
