THE GREAT PARADE.
Most Brilliant Political Pagean,
Ever Witnessed Here.


Ever Witnessed Here.
Nothing in the political history of ST.
Paul ever approached it, with but one
exception. That exception was the
brilliant celebration of Grover Cleve-
j lands election eight years ago.
The Democrats were Ell fete.
The city was blaze of glory.
| The marching clubs, headed bv bands
of music, paraded the streets last night.
| and their bright torches Illuminated
| the city while the enthusiastic cheers
| filled the air with hOpe-inspiring eXul-
| tation.
1t was scene that will long be re-
membered. The citizens in vast throngs
! lined the streets from the point OH
!! Bridge square where the pageant
! began its triumphant march to the very
! finish at Rice park. The cheers awak-
ened the latent enthusiasm of the myr-
lads that did not participate in the pa
parade, and
''Hurrah for Cleveland!"
''Hurrah for Lawler!"
'Hurrah for Castlep'
/ These S46uts, harbingers Of certain
victory, went echoing along the streets
as citizens invountarily took up the
| cry. Yes, it was contagious. and thou
sands of Democratic hearts sent patri-
| otic blood tingling through loyal veins.
The effect must be lasting, and this
grand pageant stamps the canvass with
victory. There were over twenty uni
formed marching clubs in line, and the
| ensemble aggregated 4.565.
The effect of such an aggregation of
F.! torches and so many strong pairs of
lungs shouting for Cleveland, Lawler
and Castle can be imagined better than
| described. Even after the parade had
| finished the eXuberant spirit that had
been aroused prevailed, and the ringing
| shouts continued up to midnight, as
members of the marching clubs re-
| turned to their homes.
| The tranSDarencieS presented cartoons
that are deserving of reproduction. In
this respect the North St. Paul contin-
| gent took the lead. They had multi
with a picture of the earth, OH
which stood Grover Cleveland in the
act of sweeping Benny Harrison off into
the unknown. This club made credit
able display, and it indicates that that
i part of Ramsey is pretty near right
several of our men were unable to
participate" said member to GLOBE
reporter. '1heir employers served
notice that if they did they would be
| peremptOrlly discharged"
This is not astonishing. The Repub-
lican employers, capitalists and monop-
olists have always pursued this course.
| They have bulldoZed workingmen, but
the Australian ballot will forever rele-
gate such unholy thralldom to the
shades of the past.
Minneapolis swelled the mighty army
of enthusiastic Democrats with the
Third Ward Marching club of that city.
| They added their shouts of confidence
and their greetings were returned mani
fold.
