ALL SIDE WITH GILLESPIE.
Steamboatmen Condemn Capt. Walker
and Help His Enemy.

The action of Captain Walker in making CON-
plant to the customs officers against Captain
Harry Gillespie, OF the steamer Delta, because
she went out without licensed mate on
Wednesday, was severely condemned by
steamboatmen the water front yester-
day. AS soon as the affair became known
through its publication in the osT-INTELLIGEN-
GER, the friends of Captain Gillespie made an
effort to have it fixed up. 1t was generally IN
derstood that if the boat had mate on her re-
turn it would be all right, so telegram was
sent to Port Gamble, advising Captain Gillespie
to remain there without fail until he got a mate.
little later S. W. Stephenson sent the tug May
flower on; with mate to meet the Delta in case
she had passed Port Gamble before the dispatch
reached there. She was met at the lighthouse
coming in, having secured a mate at Ducks bush
on her way out
Captain Gillespie said he could not find
mate here on the morning the boat was going
out and did not want to delay her, but secured
one at the first place possible on the route. He
said Captain Walker did not offer to go as mate
and that he was going to make an affidavit
that he never informed on Captain Walker for
running without mate or carrying too many
passengers, as the latte: charged HIM with hay
ing done while he was on the Buckeye.

ONLY FOR DUDES AND pUDINEs.
Democratic Orators Estimate of the
City's Public Library.

The Democratic mass-meeting in the London
block on West street last night was attended by
motley crowd. Quite a number of those pres
ent were in various stages of intoxication.
Mike Moon, saloon-keeper, presided. and took
particular pains to applaud every time one of
the speakers referred in sympathetic tones to
the 'poor workingman" or cast sneer at those
employed in clerical positions under the admin
istration.
J. 7. Ronald poured forth his usual TRADE
against the administration, declaring that it
was in league with the bankers to rob the city
and its employees. He was followed
by o. F. Wagner, the agitator, who
referred to the expenditure of Sl7Ooo in
the establishment of the city library as
so much "money thrown away to educate dudes
and dudnes." While Wagner was speaking
James Hamilton Lewis came in and, as he en-
tered, the crowd cheered. He took a seat near
the platform and Wagner resumed his speech
Suddenly fellow in the rear, who had more
whisky aboard than he could well manage,
blurted out: "Ah, dhry up and come down out
av that and let Dude spake He's the bye can
talk to thim.''
Later on w. II. White came in and Mr.. Lewis
and he each made brief speeches.

AMUSEM ENTS.
Miss Gale in "Romeo and Juliet"

An appreclative audience greeted Miss Gale in
"Romeo and Juliet" at the Seattle opera-house
last evening. There is an originality about the
Juliet of Miss Gale that can not fail to please
because of its bountiful sweetness as well as
originality. Her conception of the real Shake
spearean character is far above that OF the
average actor or actress who essays it.
At times, perhaps, her character
was somewhat oyerdrawn, but not
enough to mar the success the young actress
achieved. She has learned to portray passion in
all OF its phases and in the full intensity which
this love tragedy calls for.
Mr.. Creston Clarke as Romeo, acted we'll the
part OF the passionate lover. At times he was a
bit declanatory, but at others exhibited genu-
inc power, and proved himself a capable actor.
Mr.. II. A. Weaver's Mercuto was excellent,
and the entire support was fully up to that of
the average frst-class company. There are no
sticks in Miss Gales company, and the per-
formsnce last evening deserved crowded
house.
''As You Like IT. will be on the programme
this evening, with Miss Gale as Rosalind

NINTH WARD DEMOCRATS.
Listen to the FervId oratory OF SD,
mosthcnesD De Bow.

Listen to the Fervid Oratory of "De-
mosthcnes" De Bow.
The Democrats of the Ninth ward met at
Shorey's hotel, in Fremont, last night, and were
entertained both with Democratic oratory and
music by the Queen City band. The speakers
were James T. Blackstone, George II. Fortson,
B. F. De Bow and Leander Miller.
George II. Fortson wanted it understood that
he did not come with the intention of throwing
mud" He then asserted that the present
ring was after the almighty dollar, and admitted
that If the Democrats got IN they would not run
the machine perfectly. "If the Democrats do
get in said he. al venture to assert that in
twelve months you won't recognize the govern
ment-" He pointed to the police department
and declared it disgrace to the city.
B. +. De Bow started with mild tones but soon
got excited and INDUCED in winged flights OF
oratory. He called into play every figure of
speech known to rhetoric in his denuncatiou
OF what he called the viper ring. The present
campaign to his mind was not fight of Repuo-
licans against Democrats but struggle of the
people against the iron heel of that awful power,
the ring.
