he Democratic Celebration.

| AO DC1AVCEoG4C OOkOUEUCAUMs
Perhaps the largest democratic demonstra-
| ton ever witnessed in Dakota territory was
that which was made in Bismarck Monday.
The buildings owned or occupied by democrats
we're all decorated profusely, and the faithful
| few who have been dancing around on the
/ outside for twenty four years who have been
/ standing out in the cold for years, rapping and
pleading at the golden gate they who have
been standing bare footed and shivering, with
the lower extremities of their upper under
| linen quivering in the night breeze of the
| winte. of their p,liticat discomfort these all
of them and several more were out last night in
the greatest democratic celebration ever wit
| n" ssed in Dakota. The decorations were beau
| tiful Streamers aud banners waved gaily from
| windows and signs A string of small flags,
With large flag in the center, were stretched
from the Western Union telegraph Office to the
large flag in the center was life sized portrait
of Cleveland. Another line of flags was
stretched across Fourth street from the Inter
national hotel to the Griffin block, and still
another from Malloy l. stoyell's livery stable to
the Griffin block. The speakers stand on Main
street was very handsomely decorated with flags
and bunting. Through the courtesy of Captain
Rockwell Of the Ordinance Department, two
brass cannon were brought from Fort Lincoln
with detachment of soldiers, and at noon the
national and presidential salutes were fired,
while the Garfield light guard band furnished
music. In the evening the procession was
formed on Third street, marching to Meigs,
Main and thence east to Eighth, north to
Thayer, west tO First, and thence to the
speakers stand. The procession was thelargest
of political nature ever Witnessed In Bis
marok, being over q mile long and including
hundreds Of torches. The Mandan democrats
came over in q special train and joined in the
demonstration. They were an important-part
of the procession. and were rewarded by having
the greater portion of the Bismarck paraders
accompany them home and join them in q
celebration at a later hour.
