EIGHTH WARD DEMOCRATS WANT
NOT CHESTER r.. SMITH
FOR MAYOR
wEILER's HALL WARMED UP
One of the OId-Time Gatherings,
Afire With Enthusiasm, Was
Held There Last
Evening.

There was another of those old-time
Democratic demonstrations in the Eighth
last evening, and Weilers hall, Univer-
sity and Dale was so filled with advo-
Gates of honest government that all the
chairs in the neighborhood couldn't pro-
vide for the comfort of the audience
which gathered. Standing room was ct
a premium, and during the two hours in
which the meeting was In session even
the Railways and rostrum were damned
with voters anxious to record their ap.
plause in favor of the ticket headed by
Robert A Smith
Chairman Quinn smiled with graifica-
ton as he opened the meeting, and plac-
ed a few hot shots where they would do
the most good. e. c: Ives was introduce
ed, and for half an hour held the atten-
ton of the audience with aagraphic res
ume of the past Republican administra-
lions as compared with those under DEM
ocratic rule. The applause was contin-
ued and enthusiastic The appearance Of
Matt Bantz was greeted With a round Of
cheers, and the little tailorsof the Eighth
demonstrated his place inthe ranks Of
/ the working class and received every as
surance of their earnest suppart.
Frank Baer came over from the Sixth
with words of good cheer, and his story
of continued success there oceasoncd an
other whirIwind OF, eRthusiasm: He made
a forceful Speech though brief in which
he arraigned the mistakes ofrthe Wright
Doran-Kiefer succession in q caustic
manner. Thos. F. Martin, an old cam
paigner in the Eighth, spokesto the point
for fifteen minutes, and impressed on the
voters the keen necessity of hard work
during the remaining week Of the fight.
He predicted the election of Robert A.
Smith with 5000 majority, and the men
ton of the name brought an ovation for
the ticket. Louis Betz, the next comp
troller arrived late, but in time to make
an excellent ten-minute talk. F. l.. Nc

left it in need of round half dozen

Little Christensen While on Duty
Passing Out Chet Smith Cards.
John Christensen, who wears the title
of detective" because there is no law
against anybody being called "detec-
tive" whom the chief of police wants TO
designate as SUCH Is daily making him
self ridiculous IN the eyes of those who
know him. Instead Of trying to run
down some of the light-fngered gentle
men, crooks, or the confidence men, or
some of the other lawbreakers In st.
Paul, he spends a greater part of his
time trying to help elect Chef Smith
A number of instances in which the
little fellow has been making himself
ridiculous has been reported to the
q b e, and If any of them reached
Mayor Kiefer's ears he would probably
tell the1ittle fellow to keep busy in some
other way than that which he employs
Last night capped the climax With
new white hat on and a cane as long as
himself, the little fellow stood on the
corner Of Robert and Seventh streets for
nearly an hour, passing out great big
cards of Chef Smith.
A crowd gathered around and guyed
him. but he kept on shoveling out tickets.
You might keep that up for two
years, he was told land you couldn't
make one vote for Chef Smith,

other

third, and figure out what you are 60

Finally the little fellow ran out Of cards

NEARBY DOOMED.
His Attitude Against the Charter
May Help Some.

To the Editor of the Globe:
What Is the reason a certain office
holder who has an ak to grind at the
city grindstone' is opposed to the adop-
ton of the new charter?
Mr.. McCardy, open your basiliskian face
and let the voters know why you are
against the new charter? Make it in
plain language, so that common ordinary
voters need not have your oracle explain
ed after the election. Do you oppose the
adoption Of the new charter for the rea-
son you, under its provisions, cannot dis
tribute patronage to your friends in the
shape of special sales" of tax certifi-
Gates, etc, etc? Or do you oppose it be-
cause the new charter would irrevoca-
ply make you the bookkeeper of the city
instead Of the high mogul you now are?
But, my Republican friend, read the
handwriting on the wall. You are DOOM
ed. Your own party workers will vote
against you. You and the rest of your
ticket will be buried whether we will have
a snow fall or not &C. E. N.

The Methodist ministers have pro-

the Republican candidate for mayor, pro-
viding beer at ward campaign meetings
and passing around beer checks to those
who attend the gatherings.
During the Republican ante-conven-

voters requesting that attention be Civ
