money and is now suffering for the uecessl
| ties OF life, victim Of false promises and
unable to get job elsewhere. Very briefly
the facts are that Llnde was employed for
six nights as driver of team for speakers
who were making tour Of the county, and
was paid $26 for his services. But the
dervish contingent is overlooking a good
thing in Lnde. They don't know him. He
has more votes in his pocket than many of
the men who are on the Broatch pay roll
and the dervishes are overlooking a bet IL
they pass him up. Here is a verbatim ex-
tract written by Linde to Mr. Il. Rosewater
under date of October IS, 1895, which ought
to secure him employment by the Broatch
gang without further delay:

Phil Andres is in the field for Broatch.
| He called upon the vindication seeker at his
| office and told him that the interests of the
Broatch canvass would be very materially ad-
vanc9d If Broatch would toss off Jake Hauck
and take up Andres. He told Broatch that
| Hauck was not honest and had no standing
among the Germans, while he was ace high
| with a king to niger with. "You are
blankety, blankety. liar" came in stentorian
tones from behind the glass partition in
Broatch's office, where Jake Hauck was con-
cealed. Only the daring and bravery of Cap
tain Broatch prevented war in Germany.
Andres claims to have the Turner vote in his
pocket, and says Hauck has no influence.
Hauck says Andres controls no vote but his
own and isn't certain about that Both
| Hauck and Andres tell the truth when they
get excited that way.
Ike Hascall is campaigning in the Sixth
ward for Bob Holmes for the council. That
ought to assure Holmes the solid vote of the
ward. The question is, who foots the bills.
Even with all his years of practice in the
| other direction Dan Burr has an honest
spell now and then He announced yesterday
in a South Sixteenth street grocery store
that he was going to vote for Broatch and
Scott and didn't care who knew it,. Nobody
who knows Dan mas ever thought that he in
tended to vote otherwise. He might as well
have been honest a little further and an
nounced that he going to vote for Albyn
Frank for clerk of the court.
Broatch is spending money with lavish
hand. He stuck his nose into Andersons
saloon at Seventeenth and st. Mary's avenue
last night and found two men and bar
keeper inside. That was the kind of a crowd
he was looking for. He stepped boldly in
side and in a loud voice said: Give the
house something, Mr.. Barkeeper, everybody
come up" laid Is cents on the bar and slid
out
"Boilermaker, h-l!'' said Ed Leeder. "He
might put patch on tank, or some roust-
about job like that. I'll tell you what
kind of bolermaker John Mcdonald is
The wOrkngmen elected me to the council
and l worked Tom Cummings into the city
marshalship. and Mcdonald was made cap
tain He then tried to cut Cummings throat
me night and day. That's the kind of
cur he is. You see, the Linnger banquet is
characteristic of him, he would sell his near
est and dearest for personal gain at any
time. A man without manliness or honor"
Men are Judged by the company they keep.
| Privately, George Heimrod disclaims having
any use for Broatch. But when he plays
decoy for Broatch and the gang by sending
out special invitations to the Germans to
attend public meetings, where Broatch. Ed
| wards, Mcdonald and other dervishes are
billed to speak with him against reform and
retrenchment, he must expect to share with
! Broatch the odium that attaches to the whole
crowd.
Israel Frank will support Bob Duncan for
councilman. Duncan. a member of the
Board of Health. did all in his power to keep

| Among the documents nled In the pigeon
holes Of Chatter is appeal to the voters
Of the Seventh ward for the reelection of
Yellow Pine Chaffee 10 the city council. The
precious document enumerates all the things
Chaffee had done for his constituents at the
expense of the taxpayers during his term in
the council in the way of grading, paving,
sewer construction and curbing But,
strange it may seem, not a word about
yellow pine sidewalks. Conspicuous among
the signatures attached to this political d-
ploma is that of Albyn Frank, but the names
of Eller, Ben Baker. Macleod and other
standard Seventh ward patriots missing.
That explains why Chafee is for Albyn
Frank and against Charles A. Coe.
The concern of one is the concern OF all.
That's why every dervish paper is patting
Thompson on the back and deluding him into
the idea that he is in the race for city treas
urer
Councilman Kennard will get himself dis
liked in dervish circles If he don't look out.
Ho has ordered the experts who are at work
on the city treasUer's books to stop talking
politics and go to work. The first thing you
