satisfactory affair of its kind ever seen in this
city, and in order that such prophecy may be
fulfilled each and every one Of the en-
thusiastic followers Of Harrison and
Morton is hard at work. Bright new badges
! OF many nues and varied in design have been
purchased by thousands. Old torches, some
OF which have done az much service at demo-
cratic festivities as they have at republican re-
Joicings, have been dragged out OF the obscu-
rity to which they are quadrennially assigned
and have been thoroughly cleansed until they
are now as good as new, and the supplies on
hand have been largely increased by the pur-
| chase of new lots. Bunting always the ma
tional colors. has had the dust shaken out of it,
and Is waiting only for the stalwart standard
bearers. Fireworks suitable for such an occa-
sion have been accumulated at convenient
points, and when the time arrives will make
the air brilliant and asphyxiating with rain
| bows OF color and clouds of smoke All things
/ are now ready.
