THE DEMONSTRATION.

The demonstration in honor of the
| election of Cleveland a1d Hendricks was
in oil respects q grand success. The
democrats have for so long time been
standing in the shadow of defeat that
it would not seem strange if they had
lost the capacity for rejoicing. But Fri
day evening proved otherwise. The
procession was the grandest ever seen in
Manitowoc. Looking along the line of
march the streets seemed to be a sea of
liquid fire gently stirred into graceful
fluctuations. Many of the business
houses and private residences we're il
Illuminated and fire works cut through the
darkness of The night while the canon
doomed at regular intervals. 1t was
very orderly procession, quiet express
sion Of thankfulness for victory without
an attempt to be in any way offensive to
the defeated party. The streets were
crowded with oalookers, members of both
parties but not disrespectful word was
uttered. The only annoyance came from
a lot of little boys who gathered at the
door of Turner Hall and kept up con-
tinual scream of "Blaina, James G.
Blaine" This prevented the crowds
from hearing the directions given by
those who were managing the procession.
The boys were demonstrated with by
gentleman but they told him they were
informed ''they might not do that thing"
They saw the improperly of their acts
after being talked with and thereafter
subsidized. This was the only Counter
demonstration"
L. J. Nash was introduced as one of
the Mugwumps and the speech he de-
livered proved him we'll worthy of being
a representative of that class. 1t was the
speech of an independent who put purity
in politics and country above all con-
siderations of party.
Hon. John Carey, W. A. Walker,
Hubert Falge and A. J. Schmitz spoke
briefly. Judge Kirwan closed speaking
at some length in his clear scholarly
manner. The citizens without regard to
party speak in the highest terms of the
demonstration. It was de,orous, iE-
posing and managed with excellent judg-
ment. There was nothing boisterous
although the occasion was one which
appealed strongly to the democratic heart.
