Barbecue at Bethel Place-W hat the
Speakers Said.
The Reformes held q barbecue at
Squire Henry L. Cannon's, the Bethel
Place, yesterday. There was good at
tendance OF the people of the neghbor-
hood including many Democrats. The
meeting was addressed by Messrs. Hamp-
ton, Haller, Pierson and Hamilton, candi-
dates on the Reform Legislative ticket, and
by Messrs. Heiskell and Collier. The
speakers presented the merits of their
cause and the necessity OF their move
ment. They sought TO show the incon1<
sssencies of the positions taken by theH
Democratic managers in criticsing the Re-
iormos for putting the Republicans on
their ticket. They charged Messrs. Gal
loway and Hunter with having stood for
the Legislature in 1882 ON a ticket with
colored Republicans, and again in 1884
with another Republican, yet these sand
gentlemen were now denouncing the Dem-f
ocrats on the Reform ticket because thew
were keeping company with Messrs Ham,
ilton and Eldridge. They claimed that
Ed shaw had received Democratic sup
port for Coal Oil Inspector against Mai.
Rbea, and for Surveyor Of Customs against
Messrs. Rawlings and Ilessen, two life
long Democrats. They asserted that
Messrs. Wilson, Manson and Hillsman
had led the Democratic bolt in the Stato
at the only time the State had ever been
turned over to the Republicans, and that
each OF them were now in Office
through the influence Of send
tor Harris. They instanced other
cases OF like nature. They spoke
kindly OF the Democratic nominees per-.
sonally, but charged Messrs. Clapp. ODD
lum and Davis with having, while in thel
last Legislature, ignored their instructions
10 vote TO submit the prohibition amend
ment TO the people. They had severe words
for the personnel OF the late Democratic
Convention, and charged that the Demo-
cratic party was now being used 10 adj
vance individuals against the wishes OF tho
people. The candidates predicted the
election OF their ticket.

campaign progressed. 1t took possession
OF the independent Republicans at the
very outset, and there are many men in
the city who avow their purpose TO vote
for Harrison and Palmer.
1t will not do to say these men are not
Republicans, for their names and records
refute this charge. They are Republicans
who look at the methods by which can
didate secures his nomination as well as
the fitness OF the candidate. The mention
of Pinkerton's name sets Chicago crowd
wild. The laboring men hate il because
they have suffered from the muskets and
bayonets OF this mercenary army, and the
property holders hate it because their
pride in the State has been aroused.
Billy Pinkerton's bet OF $1,000 TO $500
on Fifer lately is not forgotten, and today
1t was developed that Dan Mum, the
most vituperatiye screecher against Pal
mer, is actually the Chicago attorney for
Pinkerton's agency. He has lately been
making bloody shirt speeches in Southern
Illinois. Munn's name ap pears on Pinker-
tons advertising cards, one OF which is in
