enne x Northern should go in every one
Of them would have the name of Johnny
Martin on their ballots; but if the loss of
these votes were to defeat him, he would
rather have 1t 5. than have them cast
illegally and defeat the Democratic state
and legislative ticket.
Mr.. Martin read the instructions to the
deputies, which We're as follows:

JOHN A. MARTIN,
Sheriff Laramie county.
Hon. w. L. Kuykendall and Hon. A.
Fl. Reel made stirring speeches which
were received with enthusiastic applause,
and the meeting closed with hearty cheers
for the straight Democratic ticket
Aside from lack Of numbers, the Re-
publicans made a quite creditable dis
play. They had the Flambeau club,
Greeley and 18th infantry bands, drum
corps, shot u squad, a couple of floats
of ladies'. and all the torch bearers they
could get. Their procession was spread
50 that the padding was very apparent.
The distance between files was from
ten to thirty feet. The marchers looked
on the affair as very serious business.
They were %nouceably quiet and subdued.
All tue governors horses, from the splcn-
did big animals listed for taxation as COW
ponies, down to the little sLetland's
turned in to the assessor as toys. With
out his excellency's horses the cavalry
would have been mighty slim.
The Republican opera house gathering
was a tremendously bi. one, well ar
ranged. The perfection Of detail caused
a Republican to remark that perhaps
there was too much organization in the
party. This was brought out by some of
the bad breaks Of the claquers scattered
through the audience.
J. G. Baird, who, like the Irishman's
turtle, doesn't know he's dead, was the
first speaker, He devoted himself almost
entirely to abuse OF Sheriff Martin, an
official and patriotic citizen whose efforts
to have the election a pure one so far as
Laramie county is concerned are endorsed
by all honest and decent people.
Judge Lacey was next. He made the
tariff question clear as mud.
Governor Warren came on with his
general denial. lie said there was not
an iotl OF truth in any OF the charges
made against him. He said he expected
that further charges would be made
against him today. lie spoke in compli-
mentarY terms of Carey and urged the
Republicans to whoop it up today.
Andrew Gilchrist fairly lost himself in
an attempt TO present the issues of the
day.
Judge Carey made the closing address
IN his usual rambling, evasive style. He
said Quay and Reed and Dudley were
great and honest men, He gave the for
eign born citizens a lot of taffy and offered
gratuitous insult to all Democrats aud i'm
