JUDGE COX AND FREE BEER.
An Edifying Sight for Those Who Re-

The citizens of Jackson Park were treated
to an edifying sight last night at the cor
ner of Bruce and Newman streets. where
d free-silver meeting was held by Police
Judge Cox and Oscar Pfiunm, a draughts-
man in the city engineers office. While
twenty or thirty persons were listening to
their speeches as many more surrounded a
couple OF kegs of free beer that was on
tap on the ground a dozen yards away.
Judge Cox and Mr.. Pfumm spoke from a
stand erected opposite a grocery store on
Newman street. In the shadows of the
store building cast by the moon the beer
drinkers held forth. There was no saloon
near at hand and one of the ward commit
teemen generously supplied two kegs of the
amber fluid, as well as half a dozen
"schooners." which proved insufficient to
go arr und, and the thirsty crowd stood five
or s. deep waiting for a chance at the
glas~ =.

Eerances were OF the most violent nature.

THE FINAL ALTON.
Biggest Republican Parade of Cam

paign On Oct. 81.
The Republicans of the county and the
Republican wheelmen of the State are max
ing preparations for the Dig parade that is
to be given Oct. 81, which is a week from
next Saturday. This will be the wind-up
of the campaign and will give an indica-
ton of the enthusiasm that is felt in this
city and county. 1t is intended that this
shall be the most impressive political pa
rade ever given in the city. Music and fire.
works will be abundant, in fact the city viii
take on an appearance of a pyrotechnical
spectacle. Every Republican and sound
money club in the county will be in line
and the wheelmen will be augmented by
many of the riders from the State, as that
will be the State meeting of the Republican
wheelmen. 1t was at first intended to have
the wheeImen's meeting earlier than that
date, but on account of the fact that next
week every county in the State will have a
big rally which the wheeimen want to at
terd, it was decided that the State meeting
should be held after the county rallies and
the only time then was to combine it with
the Marion county demonstration. The
wheelmen will compose the second division
of the parade. There will be nearly one
thousand from this city in line, and it is
expected that more than that number will
come from other parts of the State.
The first division will be composed of SOL
diers and sailors and their sons. This is
the place of honor and it is given to the
veterans on account of the fact that in this
time of need they have once more rallied
to save their country regardless of former
politics. The third division viii show the
unanimity with which the manufacturers
and business men are supporting the party
of sound money. 1t will be composed of the
floats of these enterprises that would be
ruined by the success of the free-slver
heresy,
The fourth division will be composed of
the clubs located north of Washington
street, and the fifth division will be COM
posed of the clubs located south of Wash
ington street.
The line of march will be as follows:
Around one-quarter of Monument place to
West Market street. west to Capitol ave-
nue., south to WASHINGTON street. west to
Missouri. and countermarch on the south
side of Washington street to Capitol ave-
nue., south to Maryland. east to Illinois.
north to Washington, east to Noble. and
countermarch on the north side of Wash
ington street to Pennsylvania north to
Ohio, east to Alabama. south to Market
and west to Tomlinson Hall. This makes
"a paraoe that is long enough for all the
people in the city to find places to see it
some place alonS the route.
