Political Mattere-A Match Tor StlkWood
and Our Dick.
SANTA ANA, Oct. 26.--Thie has been
the Peoples party day, and as result
the heavens have been overhung with
dark, black clouds; the thunders have
rolled; the drops of rain have fallen,
and gloom has pervaded everything.
The calamity howlers had good reason to
howl today. At IL O'Clock the parade
came upon Fourth street, and what
parade it was. There were in line 125
voters, and it had been expected that at
least 400 would have participated. In
the afternoon Anna L. Diggs, the Kansas
sunbeam, Grated, and really the little
woman from the Jayhawker state made
very entertaining speech. She
thought that il the speakers of the third
party had been put into Califor-
MIA two months earlier in the
campaign, the Peoples party would
have swept everything before it. To-
night A. j. Uttley and s. A. Waldren
addressed fair-sized audience. While
there are few enthusiasts in the third
party, it is safe to say there are not
more than 400 votes in the county that
will be counted for their candidates.
TO MEET.
Arrangements have been completed
for the meeting between Our Dick and
Silkwood, the two greatest PAGERS west
of the Mississippi river, and the race

a purse OF $500, $1,000 of which goes to
the winner of the race, and $500 to the
loser. 1t also pays the expenses con-
nected with the bringing of Our
Dick to this city. The race track is to
be placed in the finest of condition and
made fast, and many of the best horses
in this part OF the state will come on
that day to 60 for record, go that an
excellent programme will be offered.
The management intend to spare no
pains or expense to have everything in
the best possible condition, and it is
safe to cay that both horses will lower
their already phenomenal records. Ar
rangements for the accommodation of a
attend are assured OF great day g
sport.
