At Bismarck, A. r. Heilig spoke TO a
large audience OF worklngnen, and at
Twelfth and x streets Dr.. f. V. Ciaypool,
Charles o. Bates and ]. F. Meads were
heard by over a hundred voters Of the
Third ward.
As q result OF the active campaign car
red on BY the Republicans, the senti-
ment for Mckinley is rapidly and steadily
gaining ground. The change that has
taken pla~e in the past week is easily APP
parent from a visit through the different
wards in the city. At the meeting last
week st which Hermon Craven and Mr..
Piles. of Seattle, were the orators there
was a large attendance OF workmen ard
Popuksts and Silveriees. The same IS
true of the meeting held at the Ninth
Street theater last night. at which Gen.
Porter and Hon. John B. Allen were heard.
The success OF these meetings and the
good effect OF the sound ard logical argJ-
ments advanced by the Republicans, is
evidenced in many ways, one OF which is
the fact that tae ga therings of the street
corner orators are growing less day by
Gay. Where two such disputAnts get to-
gether they are not listened 10 by the
crowds that formerly assembled. The
gurnents in support of Republicanism, Nc

Is that the sentiment is rapidly changing.

formerly the Popuast orator held undis-
putei sway and spouted by the hour with
out interrupts now he is met with quick
and sometimes sharp retorts from the
crowd. and usually he does not talk long
after his statements are questioned and
his arguments controversial by his Repu5-
lican listeners. Among observing Repub-
hcans this change in the street gatherings
is regarded as a most encouraging sign.

Spokane. Oct. A.-Tne Popul.ses again
used the tough element OF their party TO
interrupt the peaceful proceedings Of the

Everybody was uneasy and many OF the

at the head OF the Republican column
came few steps forward. and. fortunate
~, when he saw them, the man who car
r4ed Bryans picture had sense enough to
turn UP Post street, and the rabhie follow

Sprag1e avenue two or three blocks and
then crossed over and started down River
side avenue a second time, many OF the
MOP being disappointed In not having had
fight: but they were checked and turned
back by cooler heads and trouble was
averted.
The Republican procession started for

without serious interruption. First came
the wheelmen. then the policemen, the
nEarshaas. the band. the iGinbeau club. the

Notwithstanding the fact that nearly all
along the line Bryans supporters made a
half-organized effort TO cheer their candi-
date and offer r!dicuie and insult TO the
Mckinley men IN the line. II was clearly
demonstrated that two-tnirds OF the on
lockers were in hearty sympathy with the

In reply to your correspondent OF

to get rid of the blue thistle, We
give an extract from the Encyclo,

tial uprooting may indeed increase
the mischief, for each fragment left
behind may grow into a distinct
plant. Annual species might be
kept in check were they cut down
before the flowers appear, but un.
less all the cultivators in a particu.
lar district cooperate, the efforts OF
individuals are of little avail.
