NEW TACOMA, W. T., Oct. 15.-The Presi-
Dental party left Point Townsend yesterday
morning at 10 o'clock and passed out into Fuca
straits, where the swellsf from the ocean was
quite severe, and several Of the party were
comparatively sea-sick, making great sport for
the more fortunate ones. Utsalady, on Oa-
mans island, was soon reached where the
steamer tied up for the night. The welcome
of the people was the pleasure of surprise, no
intimation having been given that the Presi-
dent would visit them. Mrs. Hayes seou had
the cabin full of children, to whom she dis
tributed apples and dainties. All the party
walked on shore where squalid company of
Indians were camped, and they had an oppor-
tunity of seeing the red man in his most de-
graded state. The boat started vt o'clock
this morning, passing through Agate Pass and
reachingiT Tacoma at l o'clock. Salutes were
fired as the boat approached the dook, which
was crowded with people. About one hundred
school children, having flowers and moving
arches. were standing 80 as to form a passage
way, through which the party marched. the
President and Mrs. Hayes shaking hands with
each little one. A public reception followed
at the residence of Gov. Sprague, where the
usual speeches were made by the President,

party left by special train for Kalama at

The members Of the First ward Hancock,

spite of the disagreeable, gloomy weather. and
the depressing and disappointing news from
the recent elections in Ohio and Indiana their
club room was filled with an interested and un-
aismayed crowd to hear what was to be said.
The meeting was called to order by President
Schurmeier, who In a short speech referred to
the elections of Tuesday as only passing gale
of wind. Although the result was somewh,t
different from what was expected. it had but
little If any bearing upon the great contest in
November. He urged upon every member of
the club to continue the fight until the polls
closed on the I'd of November, aud if they did
Gen. Sibley would be elected member of Con-
gress from this district. he concluded by in.
Producing Hon. John B. Brisbin, who made
one of his rattling speeches, which cheered
tho boys and elected round after round of ap-
plause.
MIR. J. W. Willis was next introduced and
in speech of nearly an hour he reviewed the
whole political situation, answering the charges
made against the Democratic party In a clear,
concise and eloquent manner which drew forth
frequent cutbursts of applause. Take 1t alto
gether the meeting was decided success and
one Of the best ward meetings held since the
campaign wned. Instead of being detected
.'the boys" of the First ward seem determines
10 make better fight than ever.
