POLITICAL BUDGET.
Santa Fe Democrats Jubilate in the
Plaza-Oflicial and Other Cap
ital City News.

The Democratic inaugural ratification
meeting on Saturday night was beyond
peradventure one of the signal successes
Of the party. 1t might be said that its
success was so very signal that it can
only be compared with the majority for
that party at the last election in this
county. The plaza was brilliantly illumi-
mated with Chinese lanterns and other
Democratic lights and some of the mem
bers of the party present were also IL
Illuminated with the idea that to be q thor
oughbred Bourbon one must have on
board sufficiency of that choice Ken
lucky article. The ball was opened by
that proficient in the art, Mr.. G. M.
Dreamer, supposed by some of his friends
to be in the race for postmaster Of this
city, who in his usual jocular vein made
few telling remarks relative to Grover the
Great. Mr.. Nestor Montoya also spoke.
The band then poured forth its dulcet
strains and Mr.. Dreamer gazed anxiously
into the sea of faces before him looking
for the orators of the occasion who had
been billed to speak. The crowd by this
time became impatient and soon regular
Democratic howls went up for "Twitchell,"
and amid the uproarious yells of the
people the district attorney assembled the
platform leaning upon the arm of those
stalwarts of the Democratic party, Sol
ONION Lowitsky and Florence Donoghue.
After the applause had subsidized Mr..
Twitchell made one of his characteristic
speeches, declaring that all men should
rise above the level of partizan politics
and consider it an honor to address the
people upon the ascendency of any man
to the Hottest official position in the
world; that he was Republican, dyed in
the wool, but Grover Cleveland was his
president as we'll as the president of the
Democrats; he was only too proud to
speak at the celebration ceremonies. Mr..
Twitchell's remarks were temperate, ex-
ceediugly temperate for him, and to the
Dreamer shut off the lights and sent the
band home. Thus ended the first lesson
of Democratic Publication. Moral
Don't allow the Republicans to attend
your meetings. They are too numerous.
