SEVENTH FOR SCHIFFMANN
HE WILL BE ELECTED ALDERMAN
BY A GOOD MAJORITY.

Rudolph Schiffmann carried the Seventh
ward when he ran for mayor, two years
ago, In spite of all the efforts of the party
whips to line the voters up for the Re-
publican party, lest Sagasta or some other
old Spaniard would take it as a personal
Endorsement But the people of the Sew
enth then attested their belief in DR.. Ru-
dolph Schiffmann, and they are going to
do so again this year, In spite of any
sneers of Republican organs or any straw
betting, and his majority for alderman
of the ward win be as great or greater
than that by which he carried it for
mayor two years ago.
The Seventh ward knows Rudolph
Schiffmann as the public spirited citizen,
not as the partisan. Ever loyal to the
Democracy, it was not as Democrat
but as citizen that he has endeared him.

CHEER THE WHOLE TICKET
THIRD WARD DEMOCRATS HOLD
ENTHUSIASTIC RALLY.

While $50 Democratic voters Endorsed
the Democratic ticket at an enthusiastic
Third ward meeting, held at 436 East
Seventh street, last evening, Sam Lowen-
stein and George Lamb attempted to hold
a Republican mass meeting, in han
over the Democratic gathering.
When Sam could make George hear him
between the cheers arising from down
stairs he declared that the Republicans
ought to have taken better care" of the
Third ward il they expected to make
showing in the district. Lamb enthusiast
tically applauded this sentiment and went
out to see why the barker at the door
did not hustle up some one to attend the
meeting. He found the barker with
his Republican banner inside at the Dem
ocratic meeting, vigorously applauding
the mention of Robert A. Smiths name
and tore back up stairs to tell Sam that
they had better adjourn. Inasmuch as
I.owenstein and Lamb were tired of talk
ing to each other this seemed the best
course 50 they turned out the lights and
went home.
Never was a more enthusiastic Demo-
cratic meeting held in the Third ward.

He was born in this state, and is gradu-

the Republican party has practically re-

From the Seventh district it is likely
that G. w. Stanton, of Appleton, and N

by the party, but of that there Is no
certainty, as the Seventh district has
been turning up new aspirants for po-
