zens are concerned, went out in a tri
umphant blaze of glory last night.
Not since the memorable campaign
of 1890. when the Liberals came into
power, and they and the Peoples
party spent thousands Of dollars
vieing with each other in a display of
bands, pyrotechnics. uniforms and
transpareucies, has anything ben seen
on the streets of Salt Lake TO ap-
proach last nights demonstration.
The whole population Of the city
seemed to have emptied itself upon
the streets where the line of march
was made. Traffic was impossible
and when the long, vast line of
torches rockets, Roman candles, cav
airy. floats, transparencies, shot guns,
antiques and horribles, and tin horn
screamers was fairly at work, the
bombardment Of a city could hardly
be a circumstance in comparison.
1t took twenty-five minutes for thd
vast ocession-formed in the order
announced in yesterdays Herald-to
pass The Herald corner. 1t was
huge. bowling, popular and screaming
success. and it fully demonstrated how
thoroughly the people feel an interest
in the great struggle at hand.
All along the route patriotic citizens
illuminated the front of their stores by
burning red fire or sending off sky
rockets. Bells were rung, whistles
blown, horns blowed and a pandemo
MUM of rejoicing rent the air.
At the theatre 10000 people struggled
to get inside The crush was so enor-
nous at the start that the great con-
course turned away in despair. The
result was that the house, while
jammed to overlooking, held hardly so
large a crowd as on the previous oc-
casion. The theatre holds about 1900
seated. Probably $500 crammed into
it last night.
THE PARADE.
AS early as 6:15 men with torches,
men on horses, men with flags and
men and boys in all kinds of costumes
began to assemble at the Templeton
hotel and to form into the various
bodies that were to be in the parade.
They marched and shouted and cheer
ed until the welAin rang and rang
again and enthused the vast crowd
from the Templeton corner, for over
half a block in each direction. The
enthusiastic men cheered and shouted,
marched and countermarched, blew
tin horns and shook cowbells and let
off rockets and Greek fire while
answering cheers swept up and down
the streets.
When the parade finally started
Held's band, in the lead, was COM

ing mass of human beings who entire
" stopped all traffic on Main street
from South Temple to Third South
and all the side streets along which
the procession marched. Rarely has
such crowd been seen in a Salt Lake
political demonstration. The whole
town and many of the nearby country
districts seemed to have broken loose
from conventionality in an effort to
show their longing for the overthrow
of the gang that is now misleading
