RALLY IN TIE FIRST.
Good Speeches, Good Music and a
jolly Good Time.

There was a rousing old time Demo-
cratic rally at the residence of S. w.
Alley in the First precinct last night.
The speakers were all in good voice,
always persuasive and logical, and Of
ten eloquent in their appeals to the in
telligence Of the First precinct voters
who crowded the spacious residence to
the doors. Most of the speaking was
confined TO the local political situation,
and the questions at issue in city,
county and state, but Judge Timmony
tackled the national administration
with his characteristic vigor and the
administration retired from the scene
of combat with as much celebrity as it
viii eVince a year from next November.
The parlors were profusely decorated
with cut flowers and mountain holly,
and after the speaking was concluded
refreshments were served by the young
ladies present.
Councilman Siddoway spoke enthusi-
astically of the outlook for the success
of the Democratic ticket next week, and
counseled all loyal adherents of the
grand principles of Democracy to work
increasingly for the success of the Dem
icTatic ticket from now until election
day.

other considerations, and their name is

party on the great national question of
bimetallism is sufficient to carry the
banners of the party to a glorious vic
tory at the close of the next preSiden-
tial campaign. For years the Storm
Bureau organ advocated the cause of
free silver. and held steadfast to the
cause of bimetallism. During the period
of financial depression several years
ago that paper had an unlimited num-
of leaders CT 9fincr that the
sion was due to the throttling of the
unlimited production of silver for COIN
age purposes, thereby cutting off one of
the greatest industries of the country.
Now it is Hopping and turning somer-
saults daily. We have nominated an eX-
cel1ent ticket. Arthur Barnes is a man
of honor, a man Of the Strictest integ-
rity of character, and above all, is a
Democrat
Noah Sheckell, the nominee for coun-
Gilman from the First. precinct, was the
next speaker, he said: Il was born
under a. Democratic administration, the
Democratic stars were in the ascend
ancy in the heavens and on earth when
Noah Sheckell came into the world,
and my political horoscope says that
they'll be in the same relative position
year from next month in national
politics, and on the night Of Nov. Z,
in the local elections. Under the pres
ent administration we have seen the
evils that can arise from the protective
triff. Trusts that strange infant inlus-
tries hold a mighty sway over the
length and breadth of the land

C. b. Blakely dropped in in an off
hand sort of way and said: More ac-
tive interest is being taken in this cam
paign than in any other since the fOun-
dation of the Democratic party in Salt
Lake. We have the best chances for a
clean sweep of the town that we ever
had; our prospects grow brighter day
by day. but we must not relax our good
work until we have driven the g. o. p
so far away that they'll never come
back. 1 accepted the nomination for
auditor because 1 wanted it, and also
because know I'm going to be elect
