For the past few days the Democratic
mass meeting in the Bjou Theatre. Will
mingtoD was advertised here. Posters an
nounced the meeting and also the fact that
there would go over four free trolley cars
Tho cars went but the passengers were
missing, The strains Of the band did not
entice tho oncs faithful shouters. As the
four cars passed Second AMI Delaware
street there were rs men and Is boys
aboard. Some Democrats, however, did not
wish to 60 as dead heads and accordingly
went on similar car some time later.
The go called leaders cannot whip up
false enthusiasm this year. There are
close to 1900 persons registered and out of
that number less than 100 men took ad'
vantage of the free cars. Among those
who went wers d number OF Single takers
and fsw of those who will vote beneath
the eagle on election day
Notices were served last evening on
Registrars Morrison, Campbell and Con-
roy that appeals will be lodged with Judge
Spruance on next Tuesday.
The appeals are from three men who
were refused registration and from Candi-
da,e William n. Bradley who claims that
certain man in his election district was
wrongfnlly registered on last Saturday.
The flreside lawyers and scandal InOnRers
have lots to debate over here at present.
Abuse does not benefit their cause. An
honest election is demanded here this time
and an election without deals.
If the men from thu almshouse are
paid boarders and employees of that insti-
tuition then let them prove such facts.

often made against them. II they are not
pnid boarders and employees they have no
right to drown the votes OF qualified
vo er, charity reigns as big in the hearts
of the men who wish to SOC these men
cases tested rs in the breasts Of the patri-
OTIS who are lnaligning their peers.
