MUST GET TOGETHER.
Democrat Have a Hard Proposition
 Before Them.

One of the republican workers told a reporter last night that he doesn't see
 how the democrats ever can get foot hold in the city government again. The system of getting out the vote and Keeping track of it in the shops has been reduced to science so that ali the republicans have to do is to go to the telephone and tell somebody in the office at the factories to send such and such parties to the polls and you don't have to wait long until they are at the booths provided with their tickets. To show how the wool is pulled over the eyes of democrats by people who don't want their neighbors to know any thing about their business he cited a case in one of the wards where 300 democratic tickets were round in the booths when they were being re- moved. These were taken from the men on the way i'll and then thrown aside and the ones they had with them on the way to the polls put in the en- velopess No doubt the man spoke the truth about the system, but will that last? Ain't the owners of the mills apt to grow tired of such tactics and
 refuse to handle the lists for the poli- tician.?

EAGLES CONSTABLE.
Board of Safety Would Not Give Pow.
 er 60 .yamitOr,

Some of the Eagles screamed when they heard that the department of safety refused to take favorable action on their application for the appoint ment of their janitor as a special con. stable to do duty at their headquar- ters. They look upon it as sort of unfair discrimination which is not creditable. They tell us, remarked one of the noble birds, that we can employ supernumerary officer ana pay him whenever we want protec> tion. Why don't they say that to the manufacturing concerns and owners of other private property, cemeteries, churches, halls and such places? We can't afford 10 pay an officer to re. main there all the time, but if the jan. itor were clothed with authority he could do great deal towards relieV. ing the city from expense in watching the place and the additional expense to us would not amount to much. It looks to me as if the present adminis- tration was more concerned in creating positions for it's friends than in re- ducing expenses upon the public. I hope the aldermen will see the justice of our position and grant it. Talk about boycotting. but if that isn't con- polling people to pay others to perform , service which they ought to have the privilege of doing themselves, I'd like to know what you call 1t. It is in line with the principle that denies you the right to put a pot of paint on your own house without employing somebody to do it who can show a card.''

l that he would give Frank profession. Witness heard him say very often that ] he was proud of Frank and that If 1 Mrs McEvoy was alive she would feel proud of them all, they were doing SC well. On the occasion of Christopher's vis- | it witness said she told Mrs Lawlor that he was down stairs and Mrs Law for called down to him to come up. There was no trouble or excitement whatever, and no one interfered with Christopher Lawlor. Every item or evidence given by Christopher Lawlor as to what happened on that occasion was contradicted by witness. She never saw Christopher Lawlor take or ders from Father Lawlor or ask nim for any, and when any of the work men on the building west of the house on North Main street would ask Father Lawlor for instructions Father Lawlor would refer them to Martin McEvoy. She never heard Father Lawlor men ton Christopher, and on one occasion as she was at window she saw Christopher passing by, invited him in, but he passed on. From her know ledge of Father Lawlor she would say his mind was always clear.
 On redirect examination by MT Rus sell, witness said she often heard F'atn- CT Lawlor discuss business.
 Mrs Della Guiron, Dublin street, was a servant for Father Lawlor three years. nine years ago. He then lived at the corner of Grand and South Main streets and in the Lawlor hotel with the McEyoy boys and Mrs Lawlor and
 J +A A after the fire in the Platt building. This witness said Father Lawlor was almost constantly troubled with bad cold. Otherwise he was physically and mentally strong. She often saw him on the roof of the house on South Main and Grand streets gathering pieces of wood and sthra awneens'' which the TUT niture dealers next door would throw there. He would put this wood in back room where fuel was kept. Fath- CT Lawlor told witness not to let Christopher Lawlor in the house, for he was always bothering him for mon ey. On one occasion she heard Father Lawlor say to him. sWell. Christy, that is not right" She could not say if Christopher was always sober on these visits. Christopher once threatened to HtHC W1IIl0SS dlICctCu AOL one of his boys and once she saw him put up his fists to Mrs Lawlor. She never heard Mrs Lawlor threaten Father Lawlor or saw her angry with him for allowing Christopher to come to the house. At the time Frank Nc Evoy went to college in New York. Father LaWlor told her frequently that Christopher was complaining that he was doing everything for the Me Evoy boys and nothing for his chill dren. Witness did not think Father Lawlor could be easily infiu- enced. TO sir Russell wit ness said she <, had been \ inter viewed by Mir Williams before the trial began and she denied that she had been in millinery store with Mrs Lawlor since it began. She admitted that the hat she wore in court to-day was bought by herself last Wednesday at Chase's
 Wasn't Mrs Lawlor with you when you bought ft?' asked Mir Russell
 "She was not, sir.'' the witness snapped. her eyes af1ame with scorn and indignation at the insinuation.
 Julia Monahan also lived with Mrs Lawlor two years. She did not seem to know much about the family.

STACKING THE PIPES.
Square in Front of New Post Office
 Used as Storehouse.

At last the city has made some use of the square at the junction of Grand and Bank streets. It is being used as a store house, for the telephone con- pany and comes in just right for that kind of business. Evidently the city officials think it would be folly to make a park out of such a valuable piece of property. ..-t

Rural Mail Boxes.

Changes have been made in the
rules governing rural mail boxes.
Orders from the Office of the post
master general at Washington have
been received at the postofice pro-
viding that all approved rural mail
boxes be equipped with suitable
signals to indicate whether or not
there is mail therein; and that
more than one family be permitted
to use the same rural mail box,
provided, that a written notice of
such agreement between two or
more families is filed with the post
office. The object of having signals
on the boxes indicating whether or
not there is any mail in them to
make it unnecessary for the carrier
to stop and open the boxes to as
certain that fact, and thus save
time in covering the route.

The State Fair.

Secretary J. M. True of the State
Fair association announces that
the prospects for fine fair are
very good this year. The general
splendid conditions of the crops will
greatly augment the high char
acter of the exposition and make
it possible for a greater number,
who live outside of Milwaukee, to
attend the Fair. The management
is untiring in it's efforts to make
this years fair one of the best that
has ever been held in Milwaukee.
An innovation has been planned in
so far as the board contemplates
the opening of the Fair during the
evenings. All of the exhibitions
will be lighted and the race course
will be Illuminated by arc lights so
that evening races may be held.
This new plan will increase the at
tendance as it will give the Milwau-
kee people who work during the
day a chance to see the Fair. AL
together the plans made thus far
for the Fair seem most propitious.

c. w. BLANN
Elected to High Secretary
ship of u. o. r. at St. Louis.
(From Fridays Daily.)

G.. W. Blann has been elected
Supreme Secretary of the U. o. F.
by the Supreme Court of the lodge
at St. Louis. The position is one
of the best and most desirable ones
in the list and it is a great honor
to Mr.. Blann to be rendered the
situation. The salary attached to
the Office is 1900 yearly with ex-
penses. The compensation in
creases in accordance with the
length of service. However it is
somewhat doubtful if Mr.. Blann
will see fit to accept the position. It
would necessitate his removal to
Milwaukee.
For four years Mr.. Blanu has
been Chief Ranger of the Baraboo
Court which is the largest local
lodge of the U. 0. F. in this state.
This lodge owes it's prosperity large
ly to the hard and persistent work
of Mr.. Blann who has spent un-
bounded labor and time in building
up the court. Last May Mr.. Blann
was elected the Chief High Ranger
of the state.
