HARMLESS INDEPENDENTS.

Composed Only of Re-

SKETCH OF E. j. SCHURMEIER.
Congressman McCleary Meets
a Cool Reception From
Republicans.

Inc democratic county campaign is
moving along smoothly. and the party
Is united In support OF the excellent
ticket nominated for county and legis.
lative offices. The misrepresentat tons
of the Republicans and their reports
that independent clubs are splitting up
in their favor cut no figure with the
people. for they know that these In
dependent clubs have a full Repub-
lican membership, and that they are
refusing to support their party ticket.
and are indorsing Democrats for at
least some Of the Offices. The scheme
of the Republicans to give the
impression that they are indie
pendents does not go down the
Threats OF the people. The Republicans
know that there is contention in their
ranks. and that the fight between the
old line clubs of their party and the
league clubs is dividing the party and
driving the Republican candidates to
desperation. Not word can be said
discrediting the Democratic candidates,
whlle the converse Is true as to at least
number of those on the Republican
ticket, and besides, the Democrats are
not Tuning as the Republicans are.
The Democratic meetings are enthusi-
astlc, and the speakers are listened to
with interest. Notwithstanding the
fact that the Republicans have imported
speakers of note and are spending
money freely, they lament that their
ward meetings are poorly attended and
lacking in warmth.
The Democrats in the various wards
are arranging for local rallies. The
Sixth ward will hold one of these ON
Thursday night at the West Side opera
house on South Wabasha street. They
will have the opera house band, good
speakers, and all of the Democratic
clubs in the ward will participate.
Other wards will hold joint rallies dur
ing the two weeks of the campaign that
remain.

scheduled as follows:
