IN LINE FOR BATTLE.
Democratic Workers of the Big
Eighth Ward Wide Awake and
Alert for Victory.
A Splendid Turnout OF Voters to
Honor Two Eloquent Min.
neapolitans.

That the Eighth ward is to be kept,
solidly in line for Democracy and its
candidates was demonstrated beyoifil
peradyenture last night. BrandPs hail:
was packed to the doors by citizens of
the ward, and for over two hours the
audience sat and listened to Democratic,
truths. vigorously applauding the speak,
ers at almost every sentence. The
spirit manifested Dy the voters of this,
ward is an suspicious indication that
the principles involved in the present
campaign are not being lost sight of in
the hoWib being raised against individuals
by Republican organs. aty.
George Lueders sounded the keynote
of.this sentiment when i'll impassloned,.
earnest language he denounced vile
diatribe in a morning organ against the
character of the delegates to the recent.
Democratic conventions. Mr.. LuederS
said he had come to this country forty
years ago, had fought for it in its hour
OF trial, had established a business
when the shadow of war lifted, and had
always endeavorsd to be upright in all
the relations of life. He knew that
vast majority of the delegates associ-
ated with him were honest men and
GOOD citizens. and he hoped that every
man so traduced would see to it that a
fitting rebuke was administered. For
himself, he had been selling copies of
the paper referred to for years, but
never again would he allow it within
his door.
j. j. Ryder, president of the club,
cHnched the matter while it was hot by
few pointed remarks to the effect that
the only effective way to chastise such
work was at the ballot box by voting
against the candidates favored and sup
ported by that paper; by piling up
majority for every man Oh Democratic
ticket; and by each voter making it his
particular business to see that an organ
lzation was perfected which would
sweep the ward by greater majority
than ever before for Democracy'S can
dIdates.
Hon. ID. Is. johnson and Hon. F. G.
Brooks, of Minneapolis, were the prin-
cipal speakers of the evening, and both
delivered addresses that won the appro-
baton of the multitude present. Mr.
johnson confined himself to COMPARE
son of the work OF the Democratic and
Republican conventions and candidates
in the state and nation. In incisive
language he analysed the influences
which forced Harrlson's nomination
and is seeking to elect him, and the
deductions drawn from the,factS were SO
pat, SO logical and conclusive that his
closing tribute to Cleveland and the
principles he stands for brought his
hearers to their feet in lOng-cOntinued
applause.
Mr.. Brooks briefly but completely dis
sected the claims of Republican orators
m oil nSot>, 81
esty, and all the patriotism of the coun-
try are represented and tied up in the
fetch of protection. The eloquentMin-
neapolitan quoted good Republican au-
thority against the inhumanity of such
measure as the Mckinley bill, reading
from the works of Garfield, Blaine,
Judge Thomas M. Cooley and others.
He held up to ridicule the dishonest
arguments of Knute Nelson, who, to
satisfy his ambition for Office. has
cast to the winds every opinion
he lever entertained which conflicts
with the doctrine of Protect the rich,
the poor be id" Mr.. Brooks effort
was replete with facts, figures and
sound reasoning, and at their close a
rising vote OF thanks was rendered Mr..
johnson and himself.
The club resolved to attend in BODY
the democratic demonstration Monday
night on the occasion of Hon. j. Milton
Turner's address,. New uniforms have
been ordered, and will be secured today
by committee, and it is hoped to have
every member of all the Eighth ward
clubs in line. The start for down town
will be made from Brandl'S hall at Z 80
Monday evening; assembly at 7:15.
