tlsan enthusiasm reached its high
water mark here this evening. Both
sides had planned to wind up the cam
paign with monster parades and raj
lies. Republicans secured all desira-
BILE halls in advance, but the Is to /
people had the Litchfeld band en-
gagged. The Republicans then en-
gagged Seibert's band, of ST. Paul. Not
WIthstanding the weather, the Repub-
licans had a fine parade, with hundreds
OF footmen and horsemen bearing
transparencies with all conceivable in
scriptions, and marched with fireworks
and booming of cannon. The Popo-
Gratis followed later with an attempt at
a parade, but it was a failure. e. p

tonight with the battle continued up
to the eleventh hour. Silveritas had a
dozen meetings all over the city, while
the Republicans condensed their final
rally into one big meeting at the ar
mory, where 5000 were addressed by
Page Morris, the Republican candidate
for congress. His speech was excel
lent; enthusiasm was unbounded, and
the meeting strengthened Republican
hopes Of carrying the district. Judge
Morris snflingly announced that he
was confident of victory, and, in an
sWer to questions asked him at Little
Falls, said that he would, when he
went to congress next winter, get 20
sitions on just what committees he
chose, and he had chosen the rivers
and harbors and ways and means. The
first thing he was going to do was to
put ST. back on lumber, then add an
other 81 and he was not going to be-
tray the party in two years as Towne
did. The Flambeau club, from Min
neapolis made a beautiful appearance

The Washington correspondent OF the
New York Times advances the opint9n
that there Is strong probability that
this country will soon be the pcsssessor
of the West Indian Islands of st. Thom-
MS. st. Croix, and st. John.
Denmark is anxious to dispose OF them
to the United States, and the CORE
spondent says that majority In Con-
rress IS anxious that the purchase shall
he made. and that Secretary Oiney is
favorable TO the proposition. More
over. the residents of the islands desire
rnnexatipn to the United States. The
views OF the President are not definitely
known. but 1t is believed. says the
writer. that under all the circumstances
he will not prove avcrse to the acquisi-
ton. The matter Is receiving serious at
tention in the Senate and House commit
tees which have charge Of foreign ques-
lions. and the Secretary of State IS
credited with saying that he is in favor
Of securing the islands by purchase.
Assuming these statements to be true
IL appears that there is really some
proba blity OF the United States SOON
rr or later becoming the possessor of the
Islands.

solely by the fact of their having fought

Many of these old heroes are now

fields on sunbakcd Mexican plains.
There are many of them In INDECENT

under whose portals they see the aged

one country and a united people.
Yet to these old Mexican veterans,
whose only liability lies in the fact Of
their having worn the gray in the late
war, those doors are forever barred

which has been fed out with such un-
