nearly all business buildings being well
lighted and some Of them brilliantly so. II
was one fash and glare Of light from torches,
Chinese lanterns, and the street. illumina-
lions, and from the top Of Bunker Hill the
I'M mense oounres lighted up the whole city
and were reflected against to the sky. The
streets were thronged with men, women and
children, who would take up the shouts OF
the marching men and echo them back with
Will The column as IL came opposite some
hne illumination would break out in cheers
that would run down the whole line Of 2, 600
marching men AS they passed the same spot.
Either the infection must have extended TO
some OF the Republican spectators or else
there were none of them out for Il was an al
most continuous, deafeEing yell during the

ness bearing the inscription, German
American Republicans snd Democrats won

ratified the First wards choice" AT the
Mankato house the national colors were
again suspended, while the magic figures
zig, on another banner, kept il company.
SPECIAL ILLUMISATIoSs.
While there were too many Examinations
to be told in brief sketch like this, there
were a number Of specially fine ones. VIM.
bierbaur's, large brewery above the
oil mill and of Of the line Of march, was
very timely lighted up, as also were the houses
and grounds Of Judge James Brown and
Mrs. +. II. Carney, also of the line of

most extensive illumination Of the
city A four story building
containing over a hundred windows il was
the most conspicuous and grand OF all, being
fairly one blaze Of white light A large flag
was also suspended across the street A
large bonfire was lighted in the street by Geo.
n. Ciark's residence as the head OF the col
umn approached. and Que was also built in
front OF the Mragher block on Front street
Mrs. w. Z. Peak and Mrs. Perry thinner

licences: A. B. Smith, J. C. Wise, L. Hen

The very lengthy route was made In good
order, and when horse and fOOtmen were
packed In front Of the Maukato house Hon.
D. q. Brisbin, Of st. Paul, was announced,
who made one of his usual eloquent and manly
speeches. He was followed by the silvery
tongued NJ. s. Wilkinson, the Hon. j. ].
Thornton, of st. James, Hon. d. Buck, Man
kato, and Col. T. 0'Leary, Of Avoca, who
were cbeered again. and again while speak
ing. From first to last the demonstration
was a complete success, and in point
OF numbers was perfectly over
whelming. No such political demon stration
has ever been seen in Mankato, nor in fact
in any city in Minnesota in its entire history
such enthusiasm as was manifested last
Saturday has never been shown
at any Republican victory, aud
Democrats are jubilant over its success. The
many marks of regard for the GLOBE which
were manifested on the transparencies shows
how its reliability as a newspaper is appre-
ciated here. Mankato Democrats have shown
how they can vote and they havealso shown
how they can rejoice and when the best bu-
siness men OF city come out and parade as
they did Saturday lis means something and
no mistake.
