JAKE OX THE WARPATH.
Iteport of Ills Rn-rot Speech to lle
publicana In Kings Mountain.
The following from The Kings
Mountain Herald tells about the re
cent speech of Col. Jake K. Newell
to the Republicans of that vicinity:
"lion. Jake Newell delivered an
address In the opera house Satur
day night to a large audience. There
were many Republicans present, but
In the audlejice was a large num
ber of Democrats who went out for
mere amusement and It is needless
to say that 4hey got their money's
worth. Ills address Saturday night
was up to his usual standard. He
pictured the Republican party as the
only hope for eternal salvation and
the Republican leaders as wingless
angels without spot or blemish, while
he characterized the Democratic
party and Democratic principals as
originating In Inferno. He paid glow
ing tribute ito Roosevelt and extoll
ed Taft for taking hirf speech to his
boss for approval. He accused the
Democratic party of -producing the
civil war and the panic of '93, but
kept quleit on the full dinner pall
and The present rtay panic
"Newell amused his hearers all
alike. The Republicans In the au
dience werp glad to hear him russ
out the Democrats and the Dem
ocrats were Just as well amused to
see how far to extremes one of the
speaker's stamp and brand could go.
Jake's a peach. He Is right there
with the goods when by himself and
If he will make us a few more spiels
ot different Intervals, we don't care
If tho picture show stays out of busi
ness." Ilev.
