into the room, and the claquers applauded, but the effort was weak and spiritless. Five minutes after Clay Lewis appeared with Overstreet in tow, and the claquers again started applause, but when their Congressional candidate appeared in full view the applause expired as suddenly as a snuffed-out candle, and the effort to resurrect it was unavailing. The crowd gatliered, after deducting the Democrats in attendance out of curiosity, was small and lacked the snap born of confidence and conviction. It was a cold and uncomplimentary reception that was given to Owen and Overstreet at the “grand opening” of the Republican campaign in

Putnam county.

In introducing Owen, Tom Aloore apologized for any weakness or lack 61 spissitude that might be apparent in the remarks of the candidate for Secretary of State, by saying that lie was sufi’ering from the effects of a sunstroke, and the crowd caught on immediately. The general expression alter the meeting was that Owen acquitted himself as well as could be expected of one whoso mental machinery was out of order by reason of

recent sunstroke.

Owen asserted that since the close of the war no Republican administration had been forced to sell bonds to provide means for the running expenses of the government. By this expression he meant to imply that by reason of extravagance and mbmanagement, a Democratic administration had been forced to sell bonds, and Republicans present applauded. Bro. Owen halted short of telling the whole truth and falsified by implication this may be all right viewed from a Republican standpoint, but the good brother should remember that truth is mighty and will prevail. Like a skilled demagogue Owen lauded James G. Blaine as he spoke his little piece in regard to the Republican protective tariff, and the Republicans present swallowed the bait and smacked their lips. Bro. Owen failed, however, to remind his hearers of the fact that Blaine truthfully said there was not a single provision in tho entire AIcKinley Bill that would open a market for another bushel of wheat or barrel of pork. Blaine foresaw the fact that the McKinley bill would bring about: business paresis and work ruin on the interests of American farmers, just as it has done, and it is the apex of folly for Owen and other small fry politicians to call up Blaine as a witness to prove the wisdom of McKinleyism. The whole effort of Owen was weak, vapid and thin. He advanced no argument; he gave expression to no new ideas; he simply cackled as have his predecessors of the same political household and appealed to prejudice instead of reason. He promised that if the Republicans gained the victory Congress would enact a Protective tariff law, annex the Sandwich Islands, raise sugar cane in Alaska and icebergs in Florida, and like Mulberry Sellers he favored the (lag and an appropriation every time. The Democratic regret was universal that Owen had not consented to meet Myers here in a joint discussion on Tuesday. It would have been a picnic the Democrats would have had all good stuff, and the Republicans would have hired a small boy to lekd them out of sight and kick them.

* * o « *

Next appeared the man that was adjudged greater mentally and stronger politically than ex-Cadi Case, and Overstreet is his name. When ho was introduced he looked like a small boy at a huskin’. The occasion, though not at all great, was too great for Jesse. He puckered his mouth but it wouldn’t go off' at first, because of a slight attack of stage fright, but when it did go off, it was tinctured with that sophomoric softness, sweetness and senility that begets a compound feeling of contempt and cussedness on t he part of a reasoning and right-thinking audience. Overstreet had his piece thoroughly committed, however, and he went through it without a break or a bub-

ble.
