Chicago, October Especially --The
democrats viii parade on the night OF Oc-
iober 81 In defiance OF Chief Of Police
Badenoch, the republicans declare they
VIII Likewise para ie There may be
small war over it. But war or no war,
the democratic clubs of Cook county will
not yield enc inch. They have the right
to parade the streets Of Chicago and they
propose TO maintain that right Up 10 date
Chief Of Police Badenoch has declined 10
give the democrats permit The demo
Gratis have taken tie matter before the
courts Tonight the attorney of the demo
cratic clubs said: eve have passed the
point where We care anything about a per
init According to decision Of the su
preme coure we do not need permit As
poaceube law-abiding citizens we have
the undeniable right to parade and we
propose to parade p"
The democrats cited decision OF the
supreme court UNFOLDING his view OF the
case.
Chief of Police Badenoch realizes the
seriousness of the situation. Tonight he
said If may he mistaken, but ! believe Il
the republicans and democrats attempt to
raradc on the same night over the same
streets a clash between the opposing bodies
would surely result IL might preeiphatc
serious riot and do not propose 20 take
any chances"
chief Badenoch added that he proposed
to proven, any party not having he permit
/ from paraliuE THAT means the democrats.
Unless a compromise is reached clash
seems inevitable. The democratic leaders
do not propose that republican city adj
ministration shall discriminate against
them.
Hanna's prop fell from under the wheat
market today and it went all to pieces. FL
nancally the republican National commit
tee its strong. but with all its efforts ana
with the short crop OF wheat, it has failed
TO make the promised object lesson to the
farmers
National Committeeman Campau re-
turned from a trip through Michigan to-
day. we shall elect seven or eight demo
cratic congressman from Michigan" said
he and there is no doubt whatever Of
Mr.. Bryan carrying our state. rhe demo-
Gratis. populists. silver republicans and sill
YER prohihitioulsts are working in most
hearty accord, our gains in the rural dis
tricts are something astonishing MIGHT
gan is as safely in the democratic column
as is Georgia or Texas"
The democrats today completed poll
OF the state of Ohio with the exception OF
Hamilton county, or Cincinnati. The poll
was taken with absolute care, and it is be
licved to be accurate. lt&hows a majority
of "a OOo for Bryan. Both sides claim Ham
nton county. hut even the widest repub-
lican claim does not place McKinley's ma
jority in Cincinnati at more than $4,000
The democrats claim they will carry it,.
but whether or not. If the democratic poll
Of the state is correct Ohio will cast its
electoral vote for Bryan.
Billie Mason viii not follow in tbe wake
OF Mr.. Bryan during his tour through Hi
nois. The republican State committee in
formed Mark Hanna this morning that they
would not permit it, as it would make tie
republican organization the laughing stock
of the people Of this state one Of the
state committeeman PUT It to Hanna this
way: I'VE haven't anybody in our party
who can rank with Bryan on the stump.
We have nobody who can follow him
. You know that and We don't propose 20
have our cause discounted in this way"
Hanna saw good sense In this statement
