Desperate Measures Being Resort
ed to in Order to Steal
the Election.
DEMOCRATIC MANAGERS ALERT.
They Have Evidence to Show That
Bribery, Ballot-Box Stutling
and Intimidation Will BE
Attempted at the Polls.

| 1t has been learned that Republicans have
| planned to practice wholesale frauds at the
| election on Tuesday If such Il thing is
possible. The Republican Indian has wan
| dered away from his reservation, and has
passed the word all down the line that this
| fight must be wor at any cost, and ro
| scalp is TO be spared
The scheme in its magnitude embraces all
| sorts of fraud. from bribery to stuffing the
ballot boxes. The registration has been
padded by the ward heelers of the Repub
lican party during the last few days of reg
istration, and il Is estimated that at least
1000 names have been added to the list
which have no right there. In the Thir-
teenth Ward the names of at least forty
negroes have been found, and they will not
be permitted to vote II they can be pre-
vented by the Democrats. In the Fifth
Ward Chris Schawackers ward another
batch of fraudulently registered names has
been found. All of these names are known.
and any attempt to vote on them Will re-
suit in the immediate arrest of the person
making the attempt.
Another dodge has been tried. with what
success only the result can disclose. That
is the attempt to bribe Democratic officials
to permit the Republicans to count the re-
turns they choose.
This has been done in the Fourteenth and
the Twenty-first wards. to the positive
knowledge of the Democratic managers.
who have in their possession the names OF
those to whom offers of bribery have been
made, and the names of those who made
the offers. How many others have been
approached is rot known. but the party
managers will keep a close watch. and the
instant that information is received show
ing that any official who has been ap-
PREACHED pro fails to report. the matter TO
headauarters he will be dropped for cause.
Another game that the Republicans rely
upon is intimidation. The Republican
Judges and clerks are holding meetings
nightly in the various wards. and at these
meetings the question of carrying rifles
into the polling places is discussed. They
argue that if they make this show OF re-
sistance the Democrats. especially the
humble classes. will be frightened off. and
will stay away rather than run the risk of
being shot to death. 1t is known that some
of these Republican officials are making
ready to raise a trough house and free
fight whenever and wherever they believe
II will help their cause.
The City Hall gang knows that this hght
means their political life or death. and
they are preparing to adopt any sort OF
measures that may be necessary to carry
the election. The Democratic managers
know of their desperation. and their In
tent to do whatever they can to win ny
fair or foul means. and they are preparing
TO prevent them from carrying out their
designs 20 steal the election.

in Secret Caucus
Other Speakers.

| Chauncey I. FilIey. candidate for Mayor
! on the Good Government ticket continues
to break VIGOROUSLY into the strongholds of
Republicanism in st. Louis His meeting at
/. Bohemian Turner Hall. Ninth street and
Allen avenue. Wednesday night was one of
| the largest and most enthusiastic ever held
In the Eighth Ward. The crowd which filled
| the large hall appeared to man to be for
Mr.. Filley and good government and was
heartily in sympathy with all the speakers
of the evening. When the meeting was
called to order by Chairman L. j. w. WALL
standing room was at premium.
Though it was long after IL o'clock when
Mr.. Filley. who was the last speaker, fin
ished his talk, there was no perceptible
diminuton of the crowd. The interest and
enthusiasm was sustained throughout.
Kisses and groans followed the mention of
Mayor Ziegenhein's name and the present
city administration.
Mr. Wall. who called the meeting to
der. made short address, in which he
stated that it was apparent that the peo-
pie of the Eighth Ward had come to a real
ization of the condition of the city. and
were for oustiEg the corrupt gang of graft

has tried to introduce an innovation in
the present campaign and election. They
have put Il ticket into the field for you to
vote for, without having even given you a
voice in making that ticket"
In his usual incisive way Mr.. Filley dealt
with the conditions existing in st. Louis
and with the needs Of the city. He said that
never before did St. LouisanS realize so
fully that the city must be redeemed from
corrupt rule as now, and that 1t was the
silent vote which would carry the day in
the April election. In part. he said:
I'VE are here tonight to get good gov
ernment, and from the gathering 1 find it
is safe to predict that we are going to get
1t. I can see that the majority of you men
are not the class who habitually attend po-
litical meetings. but. who form what is
known as the silent vote. In the present
struggle for good government 1t is the ST.
lent vote which will carry the day.
You all know that there is no regular
Republican ticket in the field. You are un-
der no obligations to any party. In the
present campaign the issues are purely mu-
nicpal, and you are not obliged to swallow
a ticket thrust into your throat by dark

THE SOUTH SIDE,
Republican Candidate for Mayor
Tries to Defend His La
Dor Record.

George W. Parker. Republican candidate
for Mayor. addressed three meetings
Wednesday night. one at Texas avenue and
Cherokee street in the Tenth Ward, another
at South St Louis Turner Hall. Tenth and
Carroll streets. in the Seventh Ward. and 4
third at Bundeschor Hall. Fourteenth and
Howard streets. in the Sixteenth Ward.
The first two meetings We're in South st.
Louis. Mr.. Parker was originally scheduled
to speak only at the one in the Seventh
Ward. but because of the inroads made on
the Republican vote by Meriwether and
Filley. he appeared also at the Tenth Ward
meeting which was arranged by Charles
Kratz, committeeman from the ward.
Mr.. Parker's remarks here were directed
principally toward the election law and
police law. with a brief reference to the
manner in which he came to be chosen for
the mayoralty candidate.
From Texas avenue and Cherokee street
he went to the South st. Louis Turner
Hall: Congressman Richard Bartnoldt was
speaking when the candidate for Mayor ar
rived Tub" Becker, committeeman from
the ward, was at the door as a reception
committee of one, and taking Mr.. Parker's 8
arm he escorted him up the main aisle to
the platform.
1t was in a district of the Seventh Ward

MERIWETHER MEETING
At THE COLISEUM.
Ex- Governor Altgeld and Others
Discuss National Ques-
tions at Length.

Speeches by former Governor John p.
A!tgeld Of Illinois, David A. Ball of Pike
County. Missouri. and Lee Meriwether,
Municipal Ownership candidate for Mayor
| were heard by crowd that filled the Col
iseum Wednesday night.
Curiosity to hear what the Gov.
ernor of Illinois had TO say on the question
of municipal ownership and the campaign
in St. Louis apparently attracted half of
the large crowd that was present In their
desire to hear the speaker many Of those
in the rear of the building were disappoint-
ed because of the weakness Of his voice and
the inattention given him. coupled with the
departure of several hundred persons while
he was talking.
Long before the speakers appeared on the
platform the playing of national airs by the
band and the waving of flags was a signal
for loud cheers. Three rousing cheers for
BRYAN were so timed by the gentlemen who
proposed them that they came just as the
speakers OF the evening stepped on the
platform. and made 1t appear that the ap-
plause was for them. ,,
Joseph F1ory. defeated Republican candi-
date for Governor. occupied seat just back
of Governor Altgeld and not far from Given
Campbell.
Mr.. Altgeld, after few Introductory re-
marks. began a lengthy TRADE against
Grover Cleveland. Mr.. Altse!d declared that
the nomination of Wells in st. Louis was
simply move on the part OF the cleveland
Democrats to again gain control of the
party machinery.
The speaker had nothing to say about good
government and the live issues of the cam
paign. Public ownership of utilities was dis
cussed, but Mr.. Altgeld apparently had not
been Informed of that plank in the Demo-
cratic platform. as he said nothing of 1t.
Given Campbell was introduced after MIR.
Altgeld. and when he went to telling why
he could not support Wells for Mayor. a
large part of the crowd bolted for the door
and raised such din that he was forced to
retire without having said anything touch
ing upon the campaign.
As Mr.. Meriwether stepped to the front
of the platform two pretty little girls were
lifted on the stage and presented handsome
bouuuets to him. Turning to his wife. who
sat behind him. and to his mother. he pre-
sented the flowers to them and began his
speech amid great confusion. He reiterated
statements made hundreds of times before
as to what he will do In the way of mu-
nicipal ownership "when he is Mayor and
touched on the recent trip to Springfield.

at the recent Republican primary that ths
returns indicated that ST votes were cast
in seven hours. and counted In an hour
and a half OF these ST votes SOL were re-
turned for Parker. The candidate for Mayor
began his speech by acknowledging such
valiant work in his behalf.
II am here 20 thank you for the liberal
vote you gave me at the primary. he
said. land / ask you to repeat the dose
on the second day Of April. You know I'm
not out of the woods yet.
After a few remarks on personal liberty
the candidate for Mayor turned to dis
cussion of his relations with the laboring
element in the past. He assured his hearers
that he had always been the champion cf
the working classes; that he never. as an
employer, had a strike OF his own making.
when there was trouble told my men
to go home" he said. Il have always be-
lieved that If men are fairly treated there
will be no strikes. and that there are other
ways of settling labor disputes. If men are
arbitrarily treated. then of course, there
is going to be trouble. But we've got too
far in our civilization to fight these things
out by force"
Mr. Parker went from Tenth and Carroll
streets to Fourteenth and Howard streets.
Here he again devoted himself to remarks
upon his attitude toward labor.
