Show IMPRESSIVE, BUT NOT REAL. Speaker's Eloquence Was From the Head, Not the Heart. An Englishman relates tho following follow-ing election experience: "I was taking part in canvnsslng a constituency without a representative. I was announced an-nounced as a speaker at a mass meeting meet-ing held In a large Meld within shadow distance of a famous cathedral. Ono of tho other orators delivered tho most imprcsslvo speech I havo ever beard. Ho spoke of the struggle ot the poor, how they had to bear their burden. Ho inatlo mo almost cry by his eloquence. He talked about his own little home, which ho only just managed to keep together by 'tho Rweat of his brow.' 'Who Is, ho?' I asked. 'Well,' replied my friend, tho candidate, 'he is known In his own town ns "1'opBhop Dick," because ho Is n prosperous pawnbroker.' " |
