Evening Republican, Volume 16, Number 254, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 October 1912 — Big Republican Rally At Lafayette Saturday. [ARTICLE]

Big Republican Rally At Lafayette Saturday.

The Republicans of Tippecanoe county are going to hold an old fashioned rally next Saturday and arrangements are being made for the biggest meeting of the campaign. The rally is to be an all day affair, with band concerts both day and evening. The speakers of the afternoon will be Honorable James Wilson, secretary of agriculture. The Lincoln Club, under whose auspices the speaking will be conducted, considers itself fortunate in getting Secretary Wilson for the occasion, inasmuch as be stands for progressive agriculture and is in thorough sympathy with the agriculture work of Purdue University and the scientific methods of Indiana farmers. Secretary Wilson will speak from the porch of the Lincoln Club. In the evening the Honorable Richard Langford will speak at the Dryfus theatre. Mr. Langford is a stockman and none is better posted on the tariff, especially as the tariff relates to the farmer. Mr. Langford is both eloquent and entertaining. The Lincoln Club is making the arrangements for the day. This republican club, since its birth, has conducted the chief political rally during each presidential campaign and every effort is being made to have the rally of next Saturday equal to any ever held. The schooner K. M. Dantzler was boarded and seached at Mobile Monday by United States revenue officers and, although government officials refuse to make any statement, it was said upon good authority that munitions"T)f war destined for Mexico were found on board.
