FAYETTE IWP. VOTfRS CHEER WILSON'S NAME

Six Hundred Gather At Libertyville to Hear County Candidates— Drum Corps In Action.

More than six hundred people of Fayette township last night met at the grove west of Libertyville to listen to the recounting of the work of the democratic party in power and to meet the county candidates for office in one of the best political meetings held in that township. Entertainment for the evening was furnished by the Rusty Hinge quartet and the Fourth ward drum corps, composed of sixteen young democrats between the ages of 11 and 16 years.

The speakers were Attorneys Stuart Jordan, Charles S. Batt and Thomas O'^ara. Mr. Jordan explained the new registration law, giving in detail the requirements of the new legislation on this subject and insisted that every voter in the township register October 9, so that he: can vote in the general election.

In opening his talk on the national issues and the accomplishments, Mr. Batt paid a glowing tribute to President Wilson and .tp the present democratic congress by declaring that! the history of, thi& country.* is divided into threg greal: epach^^4jpFming of the present' form of government wltlf the immortal Washington as the predominating spirit the test of whether or not the government could stand a union of great states with the immortal Lincoln as the leader, and the last, with the powers of the world at war enjoying prosperity and peace and the people of the United States equal rights, the poor man and the rich, the farmer and the manufacturer with President Wilson the prime spirit. The speaker said in the future the histories will link the name of Wilson with those of Washington and Lincoln and his deeds will have made his name immortal.

A People at Peace.

Mr. Batt then recounted the advantage of the progressive legislation enacted by the democrats and showed of how little consequence the unjust criticism of the republican candidate for the presidential chair is and will be in the fall election.

Mr. O'Mara also spoke of the national questions and praised the work of the president in his efforts to keep this country out of the great Eur$ji pean struggle and urged the voteraf to remain loyal to him so that his work may be perfected and his unfinish^S projects may be carried out.

Among the county candidates who were introduced were James J. Fagan, for county clerk Joe Drehr, for sheriff Thomas Mulvahill, for commissioner Herbert C. Anderson, for re-election as county engineer, and Richard Werneke, for re-election as prosecuting attorney.

Precinct Committeeman Roy Funkhouser presided over the meeting and received the commendation of all of the speakers and the candidates for his work-in preparing for the meeting in the face of the cold weather. The woods where the speakers' platform had been erected and decorated with the national colors and pictures of the candidates, filled with automobiles, hay wagons and buggies showed that his work had met with success and the applause of the large gathering proved to the speakers that they were appreciated.

Singers Make

a

Hit.

The singing of the Rusty Hinge quartet was well received and was especially commended for a parody on "The Quaker Down in Quaker Town," applied to Vice President Marshall.

The members of the Fourth ward drum corps were taken to the scene of the meeting on a large automobile truck and although they arrived late their program was applauded and the leader, U. O. Hicks, was cheered as he led his band of enthusiastic young drummers out of the meeting.

CONDUCTS PIANO SALE.

W. W. Anderson, one of the head salesmen for the Steger Piano company is associated with the Dennis Bros.' Music company for the present conducting a sale of the Steger pianos for which the Dennis firm is the agent. Sixteen pianos were sold during the week. Anderson says the Steger company has become one of the largest manufacturers of pianos in the world, the present output being over one hundred a day," and they cannot get piano builders enough to meet the demand.
