"That there is an interest in this can .
paigu is evidenced by the large gathe1-
ing present in what we call a ,sure year.
But it goes to show that they feel the

importance of the issue to be decided ‘

came to Norwalk freed from sectional
feeling. and that feeling has never
changed. Iknow no lines of distinc-
tion between one part and another, and
I should like to see one greater N orwalk.
I don't say this can be accomplished
or even attempted, but it is one of those
things to think well of. A year ago
last summerlvisited Concord. N. 11.,
and found a town geographically divid-
ed like N orwalk. but a united township
underoue government. with good roads
and great economy in municipal govern-
ment. There is work for every Repub.
lican and every Democratic who believes
in having our reputation unsullied. and
they should make this election so em-
phatic that the isms that produced the
Chicago platform are buried eternally.
( Applause.) Ipledge myself that you
will never be ashamed of J. Belden
Hurlbutt as your representative."

Mr. Hurlbatt was seated amid pro-
longed and enthusiastic applause.

-—Aliorssy lots l. Walsh Speaks.

The interest Norwaikers take in the
issues of the campaign was again evi-
denced last night. at t alk Opera
House, which w ed to its fullest ex-
tent with people to listen to Hon. H. C.
Baldwin. of Nangatuck. expound the
free silver doctrine.~ Ten daysago the
same state of affairs prevailed when
Hons. O. H. Plntt and E. J. Hill spoke
for sound money. In their audi-
ence were hundreds of Democrats who
were just as interested in what the
speakers had to say as were the seveml
hundred Republicans in the eloquence,
if not the doctrine. set forth by Mr.
Baldwin last night.

The speaker dismissed the tariff ques—
tion by saying that it was too ancient
an issue to spend time upon, and that all
were sick of it. It was not the tariff
the people wanted to hear discussed, he
said, but the financial question. He
complained about the campaign (101111.~
tions being all on the Republican side.
The” hard times were referred to and the.
present administration cansticly criti-
cised. Mr Baldwin then accumd the
Republican party of being ,Mr. Cleve-
land's only supporters. He charged that
the Cleveland bond issue was the black-
out kind of an insult to the United
States. The Republicans were not com-
plaining about the hard times. for up in
New Haven they burned a our lead of

(one simply for educational purposes.
while all around them people were huu-
gering for bread. He referred to the
prosperity of the colonies under cheap
money, and thought we could get along
just aswell with it today. He made a
savage attack upon the national banking
system, referring to it asascheme of
the bankers to ,get :1 cake from which
they could nibble off both ends and still
have it keep growing larger all the time.
He attributed the contraction of our-
rency and paralyzed business to a do.
liberate plan of the bankers to increase
their own interests. He thought that.
when they shouted for sound currency,
it would blister their tongues. His
idea was that, instead of a Democratic:
red flag of anarchy, as it was claimed
there would be if sound money triumph-
ed. 1he md flag of the auctioneer would
be displayed over many homes.

Mr. Baldwin attacked Congressman
Hill’s statement of the “$01,968,473 of
coin and paper currency giving a per
capita rate of $23.03 to each person in
the United States, by claiming that
81.1l51,1h‘5,770 was reserve fu111is,leavipg
but $486,782,703, or a per capita rate of
$695,121 He would have his audience
understand. he said. that this entire
reserve was tied up and was not or
could not be put 111 cm claims This
same claim was disputed\ by Mr. Hill.
The speaker then referred to the labor
question, speaking at length upon the
way capital was grinding down labor.
He claimed that these sound money
fiends would pay off in fifty-cent dol-
lars mighty quick if they could get
them. The Supreme Court was also
criticised. In closing the speaker said
that this campaign was a crisis; a battle
for humanity; a struggle between tellers
and manhood against a sordid wealth
and plutocracy. “Willyou see the sil-
ver stars of the American flag replaced
with those of gold?" he asked. "People
have no disposition to feel with this
question. Idcu’t want revolution. but
[do want the rights of the tellers over
this money greed. Don’t join the op
pressors against the weak and helpless,
but vote for William Jennings Bryan
and free silver."

Mr. Baldwin was introduced by At-
torney John J. Walsh. who also made a
rousing free silver address. Just before
the meeting closed Mr. Walsh stated
that. in some manner known only to
politicians, it had been reported that
unless persons paid their military com-
mutation tax they could not vote. He
branded this as a falsehood. Mr. Walsh
also announced that Hon. Mr. (311111-
mlngs. of Stamford. would address a
Norwaik audience prior to election.

The stage. last night. was prettily
decorated with large American flags. a
picture of Bryan being in the back~
ground.

posed as his successor, audit was report.
ed that Mr. French did not desire renum-
inatiou. The truth is, he was not con-

said, grows out of a dispute in the Hon,
street district, several years ago. 111‘

was at odds with the voters. It was
claimed that the Board sided with Mr.
Whitney, and heard his side of theatcry,
in private. It was said lbefore election

cause of the manner in which he was.
misrepresented.
