THE THIRD IN ARMS.
Democratic Enthusiasm Shakes
the Ward.

the Ward
The Third Ward Democratic club had
rousing rally at 2lS East Seventh
street last night. The hall was crowded,
and the convincing and unanswerable
points made were applauded to the
echo. Ed Schumacher presided, and he
introduced John Cavanaugh as the first
speaker. Mr.. Caganaugh is an earnest
and logical speaker, as we'll as eloquent.
lie StlgmatlZeu the recent effort to
prejudice the Irish vote in favor of
Harrison as piece of infamy, and he
maintained that IrShmen are not mere
automatomS, to be led by the nose by
Prescriptions and self-appontedl leader.
not even Blaine. This was followed
by fervent appeal to every man
OF Irish birth or Irish de-
scent 10 remember that he is
an American citizen. and not puppet.
The claim that lriShmen can be led by
Blaine, he said, is an Insult to the intel
ligence of lrshmen. He then proceeded
to prove that under the tariff system it
I is the poor man who is forced to sup
port the government, although he may
not own dollar of property. He is
honest enough to have family, and
poo1 man needs Just as many blank
cts to protect him from the rigors
OF winter as the rich, and having a
larger family he must buy more blank
cts, and hence pay more toward the
maintenance of the government This
principle was ably carried out to the
unwritten end. and the tariff issue was
certainly ably handled. 1t was shown
that Carnegie can outbid all the iron
men of the world for the supply of iron
i'll India, and hence America can place
iron on the market for less money than
continental Europe or England.
James MonohOn made an eXcelle Mt
address also. He recited the history of
the Democratic party and placed its
origin in the little .og school house in
New England. 1t was nurtured in its
infancy by Thomas Jefferson and direc-
ted in its youth by Andrew jackson,
and is now led by as gallant defender
of human liberty, Grover Cleveland,
and, coming little nearer home. by
Dan w. Lawler. He spoke of the silly
war cry, and ae serted that it was true
Democrats who shOuldered the musket
and put down the rebellion, and that
the leaders of the army were Demo-
Gratis.
W. f. NJ. Cutcheon, the next speaker,
did not believe that the real issue was
to present arguments upon the tariff
question. The people had been taught
all object lesson in the Mckinley bill
and their eyes are now open. All that
is needed is concerted action.
IRON the reports come to me-" he
said, IF every man who believes in the
principles of the Democratic party
stands true we shall lelect not only the
electors we have Endorsed, but the five
that were originally placed on the ticket
for Cleveland, and also elect Daniel w.
LAWYER governor of the state.
MrCutcheon estimated that one in six
are deserving the Republican party.
This will make certainty of the sue
cess of the party.
Fred Battley made a strong speech.
