All arrangements are complete for the
biggest political demonstration ever seen in
this part OF the country. II will begin
early this evening and continue until nearly
midnight Nearly $1,000 voters, with
twenty-siN bands, will parade the principal
streets OF the city in honor of the sound
money nominees and during this time the
city will be ablaze with rockets aud red fire.
The interest that nearly every voter Is
taking in the result OF this election is mani
fest in the possibility OF congregating such
representation of the people in line of
march on a political occasion. Hundreds
who could never before be induced to par
ticipate in demonstration of this kind are
among the most enthusiastic promoters OF
the enterprise and among the thousands
who are preparing to carry torches in honor
OF Mckinley, Mercer and MacCol are busl-
ness men who In previous years have
scarcely taken enough interest in politics
to vote.
The parade will start about $50 o'clock
from Eighteenth and Douglas streets.
Owing to the vast number of marchers the
ranks VIII be made as compact as possible
and as far as convenient the immense length
of the procession will be crowded into
width. the bands will be numerous enough
to relieve each other and allow no cessation
of the music at any point on the line OF
march. Each division viii be preceded by
twelve men carrying red fire and Roman
candles. and the entire line of parade will
be alive with pyrotechncs and inspiring
music The line of march is announced by
Marshal Frank Il. Moorcs as follows: From
Eighteenth and Douglas streets east on
Douglas to Tenth. south on Tenth to Far
nam, west on Farnam to Eighteenth. north
on Eighteenth to Douglas, east on Douglas
to Sixteenth. north on Sixteenth to such
point as is convenient to cOuntermarCh to
Sixteenth and Douglas. Then the different
divisions will proceed at once. with their
bands to the speakers stands allotted to
them and the display OF rockets. mines and
bombs will precode brief speeches by promi-
nent speakers.
