The Republican Rally.

The republican rally at Kittson Hall
on Tuesday evening was grand success
in every way. The Pembina Cornet
Band kindly consented to call the people
together with some inspiring music and
by eight o'clock the hall was completely
filled as to seating space, those who
came after being compelled to stand.
The attendance was peculiar, in that
ladies formed about as large proper
ton of the audience as would be seen at
any other sort Of entertainment, while
democrats and republicans were there
without apparent reference to partizan-
~''',,. hld Incidentally, we may say
.it.t IL is :. characteristic OF Pembina peo-
pie 10 turn Out with but little reference to
sex or party and give any speaker on
political issues respectful and attentive
hearing. The two speakers, together
talked from S:15 to II p. nj. and during
that long period not sign of restless
ness or WEAKNESS was shown in the:
audience.
The first speaker was Hon. B, F.
Spalding, our one North Dakota repre-
sentative to congress. MIR. Spalding is q
clear, argumentative, interesting speaker;
he deals with facts and draws logical
Statements from positive premises. ;, He
spoke over one hour on general topics
and towards the close gave very manly
and convincing reasons why republicans
should rally to the support of Hon. Thos.
F. Marshall as candidate for his place.
He explained. that owing to the dis
Reimbursement Of the negro and the effect
Of the Goebel lawin Kentucky, that Ger.
tain southern districts now represented
by republicans would certainly become
democratic, and therefore in any event
the house Of representatives would per-
haps be close; therefore without refer
ence to his own or any persons personal
ambition or disappointment. it was
party and patriotic duty to see that the
lower house of congress would still have
the power to hold up the hands OF Presi-
dent Mckinley in settling the questions
of the Spanish war, and to keep this
country moving onward in the path Of
progress.
MIR. Robert A. Kelly of New York was
the next speaker and in manner and
style is considerable of contrast to his
predecessor. Mr.. Kelly was formerly
democrat, a member of the Tammany
Society OF New York, and he discussed
thepolitical issues largely from the stand
point of a gold democrat, which however
he claims to be equivalent to being re-
publican at this election. Mr.. Kelly is
lively, entertaining and kept the atten.
ton of his audience undated until the
electric lights gave their warning at II
o'clock.
From here Mr.. Kelly left for Neche,
via Morris, where he was billed to speak
on Wednesday evening, while Mr.. Spald-
ing went south to speak at Grand Forks
on the same evening.

AirO-AmericanS in Politics

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. Plead
ers of the colored race from all parts of
the country filled the hall of the house of
representatives at the state capitol at 10
O'Clock this morning when the annual
convention of the National Afro-Ameri-
can Council was called to order by
Bishop Alexander Walters. The council,
which is now considered the most influ-
ential of negro organizations, had its
origin at meeting of colored men held
at Rochester, N. ", couple of years
ago, which was called in the interest of
the amelioration of the condition of the
Afro-American race. During the last
twelve months the council has increased
rapidly in membership and influence and
is now in position, so its supporters as
