Democrats Standing Firm All
Along the Line for a
Great Triumph.
Fss7
No Election Day Roorbaeks
Will Be Able to Change
a Vote.
Ring Rule Must End in the
Great North Star
State.
Thousands Of Republicans in
Line for Cleveland and
LaWler.

Democrats, stand by your colors!
Victory is in the air.
Today Minnesota will be redeemed
| from ring rule.
Listen to no boast and wild screamo of
the enemy.
They are harmless.
They are knocked down with their
own club; vanquished with their own
weapon.
Swelled with past victories, accom-
| pliShed by receptions and fraud, the
Republicans have oYerestimated their
power to deceive the people, and fallen
into pit from which they cannot eXtri-
cate themselves.
Never have the Republicans been
driven to such desperatiQn; and never
have they resorted to more despicable
measures to save their sinking cause
Two years ago they saved themselves
from an overwhelming defeat by one of
the most damnable frauds ever perpe-
trated by political party.
1t was ar outrageous falSehood; but
it accomplished for the party just what
it was intended to, and many Democrats
staid away from the polls.
Democrats, will you fall prey to
their tricks again?
Not a Democrat is there in Minnesota
who has not that Republican roorDack
fresh in his mind.
For many years the Republicans have
promised tariff reform, and carried the
day on the strength of the promise.
They did not keep their promise; they
never intended to keep it.
1t is the party of the monopolist, and
they could not afford to keep it.
They saw the rich getting richer and
the poor poorer, and they feared to face
the people of the state upon anything
but tariff reform platforms; they saw
that their security was in promising
tariff reform; so they, have promised it
every election for many years.
| They saw Cl5 p4J).t D; coming weary
of these unfulfilled promises and de-
serting them by thousands,
AT last they have been forced by the
monopOlists of the East to show their
colors; and they are now before the
people asking votes for the principles
of the Mckinley bill.
Knowing that the people would not
endure such effrOntery, they have by
| falsehood of the most daring sort tried
to confuse the people and lead them to
overlook the true issue by harping upon
issues which do not exist.
They know thot the Democratic party
| is as sound upon the question of money
as they can possibly be; yet they have
harped it from the stump and in their
newspapers that the Democratic party
was pTomulgating financial policy
which would swamp the country IN
ruin.
Does anybody believe such trumpery?
Can anybody believe that the Repub
lican party is more interested in the
financial welfare of the country than
the Democratic?
The Republicans are using millions of
money contributed by monopolists to Sc
cure the offices at stake and remain III
power.
What care the monopolists and their
party whether the poor are growing
poorer? Their nests are feathered!
But the Republicans are on the run!
Money has not saved them.
While the Democrats and thousands
of former Republicans stand in line firm
as the rock of ages, and victory is theirs.
Don't make the mistake of trading
a single vote, but vote the Democratic
ticket straight from top to bottom.
If this IS done the state OF Minnesota
will be swept as a cyclone, and the poor
old party of promises will not elect so
much as constable.
Don't make the mistake of wasting
your vote Oh Ignalius Donnelly. He
cannot be elected; the best he can do is
to secure enough votes to make him
poor third in the race.
But he cannot take any Democratic
votes; for Democrats are awake. They
see the great victory which is in store
for them, and they will stand by their
cOlOrS.
Daniel w. Lawler, the pride of Min
nesota, will be elected today as surely
as the sun rises and sets! r.,
The Republicans have eXerted every
means to spread discord in Democratic
ranks.
A few plant Democrats have become
tools in their hands and are asking votes
as independent Democrats.
VIII you endanger the assured vie
tory by helping out the Republican
scheme?
A vote cast for one of these men is
half vote for the Republican ticket.
The Republicans are urging Demo
Gratis to vote for }. j. Dougherty for con-
greSS, telling them that while he is the
candidate of the Populist party he is,
rank Democrat.
Their hope of electing Kiefer lies
wholly in the expectation that Dough-
erty will receive a large Democratic
vote. ~tsf ,trs1r
Democrats, one and all, vote for J.
n. Castle. You can re-elect him to
congress, but you cannot elect Dough-
erty.
The Republican hope of electing
Chapel sheriff OF Ramsey county rests
iii the expectation that you will divide
your vote between Anton Miesen and
the Independent candidates.
Neither of them can be elected but
Mesen. If you prefer that Miesen
should be sheriff instead of Chapel, cast
away not one vote.
The Republican hope of electing Karl
Simmon to the legislature from the
Ninth ward rests wholly in the eXpecta-
ton that you Will divide your vote be-
tween the regular nominee and McEvoy
and Mcclellan. If you prefer that a
Democrat should represent that ward in
the legislature instead of Republican.
don't waste vote Oh McEvoy or Nc
Lellan.
The Republican kope Of electing Tal-
boys to the legislature from the Sixth
ward rests wholly in the hope that you
will squander VOTES on the indepeud-
ents. 1T you prefer that Democrat
should represent the Sixth ward in the
legislature, give the solid strength of
our party to that able young lawyer,
| John V. |. Dodd.
This year will mark new era in the
the Democratic party of Minnesota if
Democrats stand by their colors.
And they will stand by their colorS
