SPEECHES AND MUSIC
JUDGE KING EXPoUNDS PRINCI-
PILES OF DEMOCRACY.
Says the People Should More Closely
Study the Great Governmental
On the Hypocrisy of Republicans
Good Musical Features.

Mr.. and Mrs John Vincent of the
Third precinct entertained the Democ-
racy OF the city last night in a most
delightful manner. Their beautiful
home at First North and Sixth west
streets was thrown open for the occa-
sion and a delightful evening spent.
The guests assembled on the lawn.
which was brilliantly lighted with
Chinese lanterns, and Councilman
F'ernstrom opened the proceedings with
a prayer. Miss Vincent followed with
a song, her sister, Mrs. Spry, accom-
panying her.
A quartette, consisting of Messrs.
Winters. Vincent, Timpson and VIM
tiers. then favored the audience, after
which Mr.. Fernstrom spoke.
The councilman said that while for
many years the Republican party had
declared that it alone was the advocate
of silver, il had now gone back COM
pletely on the white metal. There is
speaker. If a thing is right we ought
to stick to it, no matter whether we
are in a majority or not"
To take up with the doctrine
preached by Republicans, Mr.. Fern
strom thought, would be to incur
repetition of past eVents-would give
monopolies and trusts the place they
formerly occupied and would make way
for the organization of trusts that
would be a menace to liberty-loving
people
This fall" said the speaker in clos
ing, the Democracy of this city must
declare itself against trusts"
A number of musical numbers fol-
lowed. The Timpson Democratic Glee
club, Miss Racy Vincent Miss Annie
Brown. Will Brown, Miss Euphemia
Morriss, all contributed to the musical
part of the entertainment REGULATIONS
Were given by Miss Alice Calder, Miss
Leone Pratt, Miss Ida Parrot and
George Timpson.
Address By Judge King.
Judge King gave little talk on the
necessity of living up TO the principles
of Democracy and incidentally paid
his respects to the representatives of
the loyal Third, who, he said, could al
ways be depended upon to perform
their duties faithfully
The trouble is that men, and women,
too. fail to study the great govern
mental problems of the day. We have
as good government as we deserve,
and it is our part to improve it and TO
strive to maintain this beautiful free
dom that our fathers gained for us.
Important duties await us. We must
not feel that all that is expected Of US
IS to enjoy what has been secured for
we HluSl strive " StCuiO NAiG
same liberty for all the world
Concluding. Judge King warned his
hearers against the sentiment that eX-
lists in favor of compromise in the
coming political contest. I would
rather see the Democracy unsuccessful
forever than witness any abandonment
of the true principles held by jefferson
and Jackson"
