The political campaign has passed its

with great earDestness in all the parties.
The Republicans begin tomorrow night
with big meeting at Metropolitan Tenn
pie. II will be presided over by w. S.
Barnes, and Hon. J. Rick.Td Freud will
be the speaker of the evening. Mr.. Freud
has been always a prominent worker in
behalf of the workingmen, and in discuss
ing the political issues of the day he will
address his remarks TO matters affecting
most closely the welfare of the masses.
The meeting will be held under the
management of the State Central Commit
tee. and it will be made fitting beginning
of the actual work of the Republican con-
test for supremacy.
The next business before the Republi-
cans will be the permanent organization
of the District Central clubs. The organ
izations in all the districts of the city will
meet on the LIST of September for the cleo
tion of permanent officers. There are
sharp contests in several of the clubs. and
an interesting evening is expected. The
party has been holding back somewhat.
and for the past ten days the Democratic
State convention has monopolized the
attention of the politicians. But the Re-
publican campaign will soon be humming
along.
The Democrats postponed their ratifica-
ton meeting, announced in the first in
stance for last night. The delegates to the
State convention could not wait for 1t
and it was thought best to wait and have
it take place under the conduct of the new
State Central Committee. Twenty more
members are to be added aud then the
committee will duly organize and proceed
to business. With q "hustler" like Jim
Budd at the head of the ticket the Democ-
racy expects to keep the ball rolling at
quite lively rate.
The Populists are working every day.
Not great deal has been heard of them
since this Democratic hubbub has been in
progress, but they are working just the
same. Their stump speakers are moving
through the State ana in the city club
meetings and speeches are of nightly
occurrence.
