the party during the recent contest. Mr..
Bettley is an earnest talker. and has
lItie trouble in convincing his listeners
ofnis sincerity. He was and, indeed, is
now, the presidentof the Eighth Ward
Democratic club. and, if by any chance
a speaker was not assigned to the club
by the committee for that particular
meeting, President Battley was able to
get up and deliver as good a
speech as any audience could
ask for. Frank has full,
deep voice that he can throw to any
part of the house, however large, when
he speaks. He is bright man, loyal
Democrat and a deuced good fellow.
Pierce Butler IS representative of
the younger element Of the party and is
just as enthusiastic as any of them. He
made some good speeches during the
campaign, aud is always to be found in
line working for the success of the
party. j. c. Michael is another of the
convincing style of speakers. He was
able to explain the Kangaroo law to the
satisfaction of all, and performed good
work for the party i'll many other ways
besides. Judge Frank Ford delivered
a number of good talks during the cam
paign and spoke in his usual happy
and successful manner. Messrs. Alien,
Curtis and Hardy, of the Colored Citi-
zens' union, at numerous meetings
stated the reasons why they were
against the Republican ticket and for
the Democratic. Mr.. Curtis is good
speaker, but Mr.. Allen is an orator,
while Sam Hardy is the man to trot out
facts ana figures.
Under the circumstances it Is safe to
say that the Democratic party of st.
Paul was never in more commanding
position than it is to-day. 1t is now
united and backed by an organization
that is almost perfect. Good men, nay
the best men in the community, have
been placed at the head of all branches
of the city government, as well as at
the head OF the party organization, and,
with the wise and able management
that seems to be assured. nothing can
put ST. Paul out from under the broad
mantle of that party of the people-the
Democracy.

its strong grip upon the young and pro-
gressivelelement of the country. Preiu-
dice and sectional hateIhaveno influence
over the young men of the country, who.
with that hopefulness characteristic of
the American people, find more interest
in the present and the future than in
the dead past. To this class of young
men, in particular, the recent Demo
cratic victory in st. raul was largely
due, as it was almost entirely cam
paign Of the younger element Of the
party. Those noble old veterans, who
have year in and year out stood by the
principles of Democracy because they
believed in them, were on hand and did
thgir full duty, but the real work fell
on younger and stronger shoulders.
With the advent of the Australian
law came the necessity of new style
of campaign in st. Paul from that in
vogue in former years. Under the old

gathered together in short order to act
in an emergency, and this was in the
main the object and the reason OF the
appointment of such committee. The
entire committee held frequent sessions
at least one in each week--when all the
candidates were expected to be pres
ent and give their views upon
the progress of the campaign, as we'll as
the needs of the different parts OF the
city.
Action was pre-sminently charac-
teristic of every member of the commit
tee, from the bright young chairman,
William Hamm. down to the end Of the
list. Each one felt that he had been APP
pointed member of the Democratic
city committee for some purpose. and
he proposed to find out something to do
and then to do it. There were no slug
CARDS in the body, and no petty jealous
les were allowed to enter i'll any way
into the work as mapped out in the be-
ginning. Under such circumstances,
the brilliant galaxy of orators who car
ried on the Oratorical part of the con-
tiict in the different wards of the city
always felt interested in their work and
satisfied with the provisions made for
them by the committee. Too much can
not be said for the bright and
effective speeches delivered by such
men as Hon. John II. Ives,
Hon. John l.. Townley, d. w. Lawler.

occur. One evening last week poorly
clad Irish woman, with honesty and
candor written all over her face, entered
a Fourth street train at Pleasant ave-
nue. She weighed very nearly two hun
dred pounds and was burdened with in
Vulnerable small bundles. There were
no vacant seats, SO she took position
in trout of a young gentleman,e elegantly
attired, with eyeglasses and silk hat.
and tried to keep her feet by clingi ng
on to strap.
She maintained this position till the
train had reached the top of the hill,
when vision of loneliness in the shape
of a young girl entered and cast plead
ing sort of look along the side of the car
for sea-. The young man of the eye
glasses and silk hat promptly arose. and,
saluting the young lady with sweet
smile and graceful bow, proffered her
his seat. Before she could take it, how
ever, the heavy weight Irish woman
dropped herself into the coveted resting
place and, addressing the young man,
said:
"Shure. an yez wud let an onld
woman loike me stand till she dropped,
but when pretty guryl comes along,
all frills and curlS, ven git up an give
her seat, fast enough. Bad luck to the
ioikeS of ye"
The young men changed to the open
car forward, while the girl with the
frills and curlS stood up.
Another scene, very humiliating to
the young man, but very generous and
graceful on the part OF the young

Chicago and St. Joseph, Mo-. and To-
Gated in St. Paul in 1881. He is care
full and methodical man, who by careful
attention to his business has built it up
until he now stands at the head in his
line in the city. People like him
because he is honest, fearless and out
spoken. As prominent republican
remarked few days ago: If Aberle is
for you he will say 50, ana if he is
against You he will not attempt to stab
you in the back. | wish there were
more men in politics like Dan Aberle."
II. Z. O'Connor was another member
of the executive committee and upon
whom fell great deal Of the hard work
of the contest. Like his father before
him. Dick" O'Connor never shrinks
duty placed upon him by the Democ-
racy of st. Paul, and wherever there
was work to be done there was Dick
O'Connor found ready and willing, yea,
anxious to do it. Mr. O'Connor is
hustler from away back, and as he has
always lived in st. Paul, his acquaint-
ances are more than legion in number.
He was valuable member OF the com
mittee. and every suggestion made TO
him in connection with the running OF
the campaign received respectful con-
siderati0n.
Hon. John ii. Ives was another stand
by of the executive committee. 10
him, perhaps, more than any one else,
is due much of the credit for outlining
the plan of the campaign as it was
fought. He realized from the start that
the voters must be handled in aditferent
way from that in which they were under
the old system of running elections,
when an expert ticket peddler was
worth more than ten Ciceros on the
stump ard he set about to evolve plan.
Aided by John w. Willis and other
members of the committee, plan was
devised for the instruction Of the voters
in the mysteries of the new voting law.
The speakers were impressed with the
importance of convincing the voters first
of all, that their proper course was to
vote the Democratic ticker, and second,
telling them how to vote that
ticket. AS Mr. Ives well put it, 1.-THE
campaign was an educational one
John Ives, by the way. is too We'll known
to the people of St. Paul to need any
eulogy at this time. He is a successful
and popular lawyer, and has served one
term as member of the state legislature.
He is a good political speaker. and can
convince as well as persuade voters OF
the error of their ways.
Another member of the committee
whose services were especially valuable
was John w. Willis. OF the Seventh
ward. Like Mr.. Ives he took the stump

THWARTING THE MOTHS.
A Plan That Answers as Well as
Cedar Chest.

Good Housekeeping.
If one has no cedar chests to store
woolens in. a very good substitute is a
trunk or flour barrel. The barrel should
be well washed in cold water, dried and
lined with newspapers. These are
pasted in, using thick flour paste with
large spoonful of alum added to quart
of paste. Cover every place on the in
side of the barrel, letting the paper come
up to the outside of the barrel. Cheat the
eoyer.together and paste paper on the in
side. The woolens should be thoroughly
brushed and summed, carefully folded
and laid in. When the barrel is full, the
cover should be pressed down, stout
MANILA paper put over the top, coming
down we'll around the barrel, tied down
with Irvine and pasted so as to fit close.
Hang out furs when the sun shines
hot: let them hang several hours,
cOmbing them with coarse dressing
comb. Put into its box the muff and a
strip of paper pasted around where the
cover Joins the box. The fur cape the
same. | never add camphor or any
thing, and have kept these furs twenty
three years and never sign of moth.

system less time was devoted to reason
ing with the voter previous to the cleo
ton day, as it was thought necessary to
40 the greater portion of the campaign
ing at the latter time through the medi-
um of the ticket peddler and the ward
heeler. The young men placed in con-
troll of the party organization by Chair
man Crawford Livingston at the COM
mencement of the late municipal cam
paign saw this at a glance, and inau-
gurated the most effective campaign
ever fought in st. Paul. While their
opponents were wasting their time in
bowling themselves wild according to
the most approved style OF We olden and
time-WOrn system, the members
of the Demomocratic city conf
mittee were reaching out and
gaining the ear of every voter in the
city: and when they reached these vot-
ers they never let go until they had con-
WINGED them that the Democratic ticket
was the one for them to vote on election
day. This committee was made up by
Chairman Livingston as follows:
William Hamm. chairman; D. Aberle,
George Mitsch, P. T. Kavanagh and P.
Egan, at large; and NJ. Mullane, of the
First ward; z. J. Franzua. of the Sec
Ond: George H. Allen, third; r. T.

'Billy" Hamm, the popular and able
chairman of the committee, is never so
much at home as when he is in the
midst of an exciting political contest.
He is rare good fellow, liked by
everybody, and as clever and accommo-
dating gentleman as the sun ever
shone upon. He is st. Paul boy, hav-
ing been born in this city thirtv-one
years ago. For a number of years he
has been enhaged with his father in the
management of the extensive Hamm
breweries. and is one of the brightest
and quickest business men in the city.
He is also largely interested in
the st. Louis, st. Paul & Minneapolis
Packet company, of which organization
he is now the president. He has long
been recognized as one of the staunch-
est Democratic workers in the city and

Charles L.Willis, formerly of Ohio, who
is Democrat after the style of Gov.
William Allen, Alien G. Thurman, and
those other grand Democratic leaders,
who were and are an honor as well to
the nation as to the state.
The labOrs of Aid. p. L. Kavanagh in
the cause are too well known to need
much comment. He was always on
hand with advice and help, and to his
efforts as we'll as those of George Mitsch
the splendid majority given the entire
Democratic ticket in the Fourth ward is
due. Mr.. Mitsch, like his honored
father, was an invaluable worker, and
the well versed local politician only
needs to go over the election returns to
verify the assertion that George Mitsch
Jr. did great work tor the Democracy in
the last campaign. In the First ward
the banner was upheld most gl0riously
by Mr.. Mullane. aided by Dan Aberle
and host of staunch workers. To Mr..
MulIane, however, fell great part of
the routine or committee work belong
ing to the work, and right molly did he
perform the duties allotted to him.
In the Second ward P.J. Franz wa was
found right on deck helping Aid. Fred

Chairman Hamm helped very ma
terially in the work in this district, the
brunt of the fight fell Oh Mr.. Franzwa,

did it and never grumbled. George H.
