The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-09-05

Democrats who vote the party ticket,
whether the candidates be good or
bad, will vote no other, and will vote
this time for Palmer and Buckner; the
thinking Democrats will vote for Nc
kinley, and with their aid the state
will be saved to Republicans and sound
money"
THE result will be the same in Illi-
nois. The Republicans will carry the
state for Mckinley through the aid
OF Palmer, who will receive the votes
or thousands of Democrats who would
otherwise vote for Bryan. In a trip
through Illinois last week I was sur
prised to find among workingmen a
sentiment in favor of Mckinley and
Altgeld. Capt Tanner, the Republican
nominee for governor, is not popular
with the workingmen of that state.
and / should not be surprised to learn
of the election of Democratic govern
or and Republican electoral ticket
in Illinois.
Minnesota will elect Mckinley by a.
good majority. l have been told by
hundreds of Democrats that they will
vote for the Republican candidate. The
First district will roll up a tremendous
vote for the Republican candidate, and
will go far toward keeping the total
figures well up in the double numbers .
The Sound Money club will hereafter
pursue a new plan in the work of edu-
eating the voters. The system of ward
meetings will be discontinued and in
its place will be instituted a system
of missionary work in the workshops
and factories. Speakers will be sent
among the workingmen and their in
terest will be aroused by a direct per-
sCDal appeal. The ward meetings will
be continued by the Republicans and
German American clubs, and for this
reason the Sound Money club directors
have adopted the new plan of reaching
the voters. The first of the meetings
under the new order Of things will be
held this afternoon at s O'Clock at the
Great Northern shops. Judge Flandrau
and Gen. Clapp will be the speakers.
.
