has been on nearly every start quoted
at odds ranging from 1000 to 5000 to

$50. Nightingale, at to 2, was the
fayorite, and made the running to

Former Manager of the SPAIN Garden"
Tells Why He Is Against Kane
Acts as Thirst AIIeviator for One
Ward and Has Strenuous Day of 1t.

IA damn dirty Irishman can be ae-
| man like me-a saloonkeeper-caa
hang picture in the window and get
| prosecuted"
So spoke Anton Weinholzer yester-
day, after he had gone through with a
| strenuous day of campaigning in the
| Eighth ward for his lawyer friend and
protector, Harvey e. Hall.
Tom Kane is a dirty prohibitionist,"
continued the proprietor Of the EN-
pire" concert hall on Bridge square,
formerly of the palm Garden" I've
got no use for him. I'm for Hall and
I've got a big stake of money up
$500 OR $800-to say that he'll be elect
ed. I'm for my man, Harvey Hall, who
has worked for me four years because
1 know he's right and I've got thou
sand or two more to bet that he'll be
elected"
Mr. Weinholzer's friend, Harvey E.
Hall, Republican candidate for county
attorney, has for the past four years
defended Weinholzer in the courts.
He's Harvey's Friend.
81 was out in the Eighth ward to-
day. said Weinholzer. as he grace
fully accepted a third drink over his
own bar, and plugged things up
strong for Hall. I'll tell you what. If
Hall gets elected there won't be no
more warrants issued against me, and
that's no lie. People like mes got to
have a chance just like anybody else,
and I'm out for Harvey Hall because
he worked good for me and he's my
friend. I did lots of things out in the
,icryaf r + Icfs ray.f
of what I'm doing"
AdYiees from the front indicate that
Mr.. Weinho1zer's incursion into the
Eighth ward yesterday was highly
spectacular. Some persons who saw
him en- route even go so far as to say
that it was lurid.
If there are any virtues on the cal
endar that were not attributed to Mr..
Hall by his sponsor, Mr.. Weinholzer,
they did not happen to be on the
memorandum of Mr.. Weinholzer. And
if there is any choice invective that
was not applied to MIR. Kane it was be-
cause the usually good memory of Mr..
Weinho1zer failed him.
He AIlayed Thirst.
The proprietor of the Empire was
unaccompanied by any brass bands
and he carried no outriders with red
fire and tom toms, but everybody in
the Eighth ward who was blessed yes
terday with thirst knew he was
abroad. And they also knew for what
purpose he was abroad.
.tI handed 1t to them strong" said
Weinholzer afterward. ME and Har-
yey Hall is good friends and he's going
to be elected
Perhaps it was because of Mr.. Vein
holzer's bland confidence and serene
assurance that so many persons gave
adniring "Ohs" and "Ahs" when he
spoke. And then again perhaps it was
because of the unique spectacle pre-
scented by Weinholzer posing as the
custodian Of the German vote in the
Eighth and the champion Of men who
1 want to ''hang pictures in their win
dews" ard be immune from trouble
some warrants. Who knows?
Puzzle: Find where Mr.. Weinholzer
gets off at.

WAGE THOROUGH CAMPAIGN.
Democrats Work Together for the
Election Of Their Entire Ticket.

The Ramsey county Democratic COM
mittee claims the election of it's entire
ticket by pluralities ranging from $500
down and that it will carry the county
for Leonard A. Rosing and the state
ticket by pluralities ranging from $500
for Rosing and Robert A. Smith down.
The fight made by the Democratic
candidates and their committee has
been unusually thorough. It has lack
ed some Of the spectacular and brass
band features Of former campaigns,
but nothing has been missing from the
routine Of effective vote getting work.
Several candidates of the Democratic.

The Republican claquers have pin
ned their failing hopes to the game of
cross fire and attempted excitement of
racial prejudices by claiming night and
day that all the Democrats save the
Germans have knives up their sleeves
for WAGNER. Wagner has demon
strated that he Is perfectly capable Of
taking care Of his own interests and
has conclusively demonstrated in the
past that he has the faculty of trim
ming his Republican opponents. The
Republican charges have, however, be-
come boomerangs. Every man on the
Democratic ticket is working for Wag-
ener and bending every energy to Sc
curing his election by plurality
which will place him among the lead

County Attorney Kane, Treasurer
Metzdorf, Coroner Miller and M. f.
Kahn go before the voters on their

a fight waged by the taxpayers for

If American League Is Denied Chance

Following Claim They Have Secured
a Site.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3O.-The latest
move on the part of the American
league to establish baseball team in
New York is one that strikes pretty
close to home with the National league
1t is no other than threat to have
street cut through the Polo grounds.
This threat, say the American leaguers,
will be carried out unless the New
Workers let go of Manhattan field. The
street has been surveyed through the
Polo grounds, is on the official city
map and can be cut through if the
board of aldermen orders it done.
The National league agents have
been claiming that the American league
could not get any sort of a location on
Manhattan Island, but President John
son has all along seemed confident that
his organization would have a suitable
site. If by any means the Polo grounds
should be cut up and the Johnson
forces at the same time get a site
centrally located it would be a body
