MARSHALL TALKS AT THE COUNTY SEAT Candidate Is Greeted Crowd of Five Hundred People. By -Tom Marshall, the much tauted democratic nominee for governor, speaking to a crowd of 500 democrats, republicans and horse buyers from Illinois, from the veranda' of the Commercial hotel here yesterday, filled completely to make the "hit" his democratic followers supposed he would. Instead, the republicans who heard him were jubiliant over the result of the entire day's proceedings, but doubly so from the effects of Marshall's speech, which, from the animosity It has stirred up among the old soldiers who heard him, the saloonkeepers who wanted light on his position, and the manufacturer and his workmen who saw all the artful schemes used to ar ray class against class, will prove to be one of the strongest arguments that the republicans have against the democratic nominee, and like Bryan, t1iy-riave now the goods to show that Marshall will be one of the most unsafe men, from many standpoints that ever sought to control the destiny of the state. Marshall delivered nearly word for word, with a few additions, the same speech he made In Hammond, but It la the additions that were re sponsible for the great wave that was stirred up against the speaker yester day that will probably sound his death knell, as an aspirant for the governor's office. The first fatal blow Mr. Marshall struck against himself and his followers was when he com pared the Lincoln republican with the present day Bryan democrat, stating that an Abraham Lincoln republican ought to be a Bryan democrat. Tom Marshall reckoned without hi3 host when he made that statement, for the old G. A. R. boys who fought for the union, remember well and to their sor row, how the democratic party of that time were against every act that Lin coin was trying to bring about for the successful close of the-war, (and as one old boy in blue was heard to say yes terday, "Why don't they go to their own party for a man to lean against without bring the revered name of Lincoln into present day politics?" Every G. A. R. man that heard the speech yesterday is up in arms against what was said and if their influence counts for aught, Marshall will get few votes here. His demogogic tirade against the trusts and corporations was next on his political bill of fare, and the way manufacturers were scored in his ef forts to array class against class and labor against capital, will certainly be the means of losing Marshall many votes. A Chicago horse-buyer, who did not know what kind of a s5eech was being made, was of the opinion that Crown Point had bee Invaded by a red-hot disciple of socialism, so bitter was Marshall's efforts to stir up animosity between the wage-earner and the moneyed man. Marshall's prediction of an awful calamity that is to sweep the country, . if no remedy is found for the present situation, was appalling, if it had been taken seriously, but those utterances coming from a man like Marshall who rides around in automobiles and has a reputation for being an aristocrat, only provoke amusement, and his audience yesterday were not the kind to take up his fire brand of socialism, and work his deadly offices while Mr. Marshall sits around in an automobile. Pontius Pilate and Moses were here brought Into the speaker's range of argument, but what he tried to bring A Lazy Liver May be only a tired liver, or a starved liver. It would be a stupid a3 well as savage thing to beat a weary or starved man because he lagged in his work. So 1n treating the lagging, torpid liver it la a great mistake to lash it with strong drastic drugs. A torpid liver is but an indication of an ill-nourished, enfeebled body whose organs are weary with over work. Start with the stomach and allied organs of digestion and nutrition. Put them in working order . and see how quickly your liver will become active. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has made many marvelous cures of "liver trouble" by its wonderful control of the organs of digestion and nutrition. It restores the normal activity of the stomach, increases the secretions of the blood-making glands, cleanses the system from poisonous accumulations, and so relieves the liver of the burdens imposed upon it by the defection of other organs.

about with these two antedated characters, beyond confusing some of his listeners and reckoning the capital of j Carnegie, no one may be able to dis-' cover. In all his triade against the faults and abuses which he claimed were being brought under republican administration, he merely failed to give a remedy for one of them. Once JId Marshall broach the liquor question, getting around the local op tion plank. He claimed the governor was powerless against the law, but in the same breath declared that Hanly fillped the legislature around at his will. If called upon to administer against the liquor traffic Marshall said he would administer against the high club man's saloon as well as the poor saloonkeepers' saloon. This was all he said upon the topic that probabily his entire audience had been waiting patiently for, and to say they were disappointed is putting it mildly after he strong and fearless stand taken by Watson. Speaking of graft, Marshall said It was human nature for every man to get whatever he could. He said there had been times when he could have stolen ' $10,000, but if there came a question as to whether he d steal a million dollars, well he didn't know. This remark coming from a nominee for the governorship caused a great deal of comment from those who heard it, and Mr. Thomas Marshall will prob ably hear a great deal more of that remark before he is through. To the union man, Marshall had nothing to say, for the simple reason that he has had no opportunity to be for or agaJnst them. Marshall was interrupted .in his talk by a listener who asked him what Bryan or the democratic party had ever done? Marshall sparred for time to collect his thoughts by asking the man his name and several other ques tlons, and then came back with. "They haven't had a chance." Marshall said there were many offices at Indianapolis that ought to be abolished becuse they had nothing to do. As a last effort to win votes for himself he admonished that intelligent audience, that does not know the name of being "bribed, "bull-dozed," or "beaten." into casting their vote for the republican ticket. After his speech Marshall was taken to the Erie train for Hammond. Notes. A wedding ceremony was performed before the audience upon a couple that Represented Simon announced were strong democrats. They hailed from Chicago. City Judge McMahon, candi date for Judge of the superior court, performed the ceremony. This public exhibition was decried by many of the democrats 'present, as being sacreliguous and of the tin whistle and clap trap order. " ' " The republicans were busy figuring out how many votes Marshall's speech lost him yesterday and how many i is going to lose him in the future.' After hearing so much about the oratory, logic, etc., of Marshall It can hardly be wondered why so many were disappointed yesterday. One by one the saloonkeepers are opening their eyes to the fact that the republican party at least is not de ceaving them as to their position, and the fact that they do not know where the democrats and Marshall stand i making them flock to the party that has come out into the open. Marshall asked where the republic ans got their money for the campaign work? Center township republicans have a nice little list of donations that they will be proud to show and com pare with the list raised for the Marsh all doing yesterday. The St. John wagon to the Marshall speech yesterday did not arrive until after Marshall had shaken the dust o the town off his feet. They started with the intention of taking in th Bryan meeting at Lowell, but as th Peerless One did not stop there they were disappointed and came on Crown Point to receive their se disappointment. to Drew Average Crowd. The horse sale yesterday drew about the average crowd of buyers and sell ers. although not many horses changed hands. Not more than twenty horses were shipped away. Politics seeme to have more charms than horse swap ping, and the crowd here yesterda was about evenly devided between the two big political parties.

A great many of the high school pupils attended the democratic rally this afternoon, but some way Mr. Marshall did not seem to impress them much, as they still yell for Watson.

The sense of the comic is much blunted by habits of punning and of using humoristic phrase; the trick of employing Johnsonian polysyllables to treat of the infinitely little. And it really may be humorous, of a kind, yet it will miss the point by going too much round about it. George Meredith, la "An Essay on Comedy.",
