ROSE IN THE CITY.
Delivers. an Abusive Address to a Large
Audience.

David S. Rose addressed a large
audience at the Opera House last
evening. Although many Democrats
were present, the mayor found the
reception rather chilly. Often when
he thought he had made An important
point he would stop and survey the
crowd, but the expected applause did
not always materialiZc. 1t was
mechanical. The cheering came
spasmodically, and seemed forced.
Rose had come expecting to gain
many votes. He left doubling
whether he even could retain the votes
he bad before entering upon his
TRADE.
Rose said nothing new. His speech
was made up of extracts from the
many he has made during the cam
paign. The Republican or Democrats
who went expecting to learn some
thing was disappointed. Rose had
nothing TO say concerning the Demo
cratic platform or the Democratic
party in general probably he thought
those matters were of little import
anCe. He did, however, have a great
has done for Milwaukee. But what
l1C olIu LID Iil W HOuIO OllOuIu LID
ticket be elected he was careful in not
saying. He either did not know or
did not dare to tell if he did know
FOur-ifths Of his speech was devoted
to denunciatiOn Of Gov. r. NJ
LaFollette and the principles for
which he stands; the other fifth was
made up of glowing praise Of Mayor
Rose and the things he has done for
MilWaukee-what a splendid official
he has been an how much the people
loved and adored him. His speech
may be summed up like this, judging
from what he said: "LaFollette is a
mOnster-l am god; please elect me
governor and | will make this state
the heaven Milwaukee is. ;"
1t certainly was d remarkable
speech. Only abuse, self lauda ton-
no arguments. But, then, Mayor
Rose Was the speaker.

Frank Davey expressed the hope
TO continue as we begin, a gentleman
ly business discussion, on the Repub-
lican county and state and national
platforms, which they endorsed. The
crowd at Turner would have enjoyed
much more hearing him talk than
reading the party platform. They
stood by Roosevelt in his fight on the
trusts and 10 exclude the Chinese.
He declared himself for fiat salaries
and a closer business administration
of our state affairs, and for Direct
Nomination of candidates for office.
(This latter was applauded)
Favored creation of a mining bu-
reau as provided in the Republican
platform. They were also in entire
harmony with the Republican county
platform that praises the Republican
county and state administration, (the
latter being omitted from the state
platform.) He read the Republican
county platform of 1901 which prom
ised strict economy in state affairs,
and 10 put the county on a cash basis
and reduce the county taxes. This
pledge had been kept and the county
had a cash surplus. The high taxes
were due to the high levy caused by
increased valuations. Current ex-
penses had been reduced about one
half In this county in five years.
He advocated change OF present
tax law, so as to be more favorable
to the farmers and poorer taxpayers
who were now unjustly Disseminated
against. The present tax law offers
a premium early in the spring, and
tries TO catch him when his money is
gone. and he must become delinquent
or lose has rebate II was favorable

now made the farmer who could not
pay hts tax In the spring. but was as
sessed a penalty OF ~ per cent
while the state asked of the county

nation against those unable TO pay
early He then mentioned all th'
