The difference between the
Folk meetings at different points
in the state and the Halves dem
onstrations, is that the people
turn out TO hear Folk because
they have confidence in him and
need no solicitation, md give
him an ovation at every public
gathering, while it requires a
HAYES syndicate to manipulate
free transportation, and a ticti.
cious show by paid "Indians" to
boost up the Halves meetings
wherever held. The "red. letter"
opening of the Halves campaign
in ST. Louis was no exception to
this rule, as numerous politicians
throughout the state were in
duced to be present in st. Louis
at the opening, by the receipt of
free passes and free entertain
ment on arrival there, while the
scene was animated with a glare
of red lights, and Halves talk
was manufactured to suit tbs Oc-
casion, These things are noted
by the rank and file of the Dem
Ocratic party, and HAYES will
realize mOn that he is following a
lost cause.

CHAT OF PEOPLE AND EVENTS.


and Miss Augusta Helen Porter
of St. Louis, the wedding to be
celebrated at the home of the
bride on Wednesday, the four
teenth of Decem Der, and to be
an occasion claiming the best
and brightest of wishes from so
many Column bians whose warm
friendship and regard have at
/ tended Mr.. Lincoln through the
years of his residence elsewhere.
His ability and sterling worth
have brought to him unusual
business success, reviewed with
pride here, and his rapid pro-
motion with the firm of Hamilton
Brown Company of st. Louis is
evidence of the high esteem in
which he is held. AS assistant
manager of their largest factory,
Mr.. Lincoln occupies a position
of responsibility and trust. and
his splendid qualifications fore
tell future of increased honor.
He is the eldest son of Col. G. l.
Lincoln of this city. a citizen
often chosen for public Office,
lawyer who has gained distinc-
ton in his profession, and in the
military circles of the State.
Miss Porter is described as
Southern girl of exceptional
charm, the daughter of Mr..
William j. Porter, a former
Tennessean. She will be cordial
~ welcomed upon her visit to
Columbus during the holidays,
and will doubtless share the
popularity that has always been
given Mr.. Lincoln in generous
measure.

Yelled Prophet in all his mystic
glory was another gala affair,
and the Columbus party were
fortunate in having an excellent
view of the beautiful procession,
as guests of Mrs. Spencer on
Washington avenue. A grace
full courtesy on the part of the
Exposition authorities was the
free admission accorded all the
delegates to the convention on
the day appointed as their own
at the grounds. Among the Mis-

The prettiest feature of the
forthcoming fair will be the
floral parade, which will occur on
the afternoon of Wednesday. the
nineteenth. and will be the center
ofanticipations, bringing display
of artistic talent in a field where
Colum bans, for the first time,
enter. The committee selected
to arrange the details are, Mrs.
Mckinley. Mrs. Sherman, Mrs.
Ledyard Vaughn. Mrs. E. S.
Moore and Miss Ella Sherrod,
and though it is as yet too early
to learn much of what promises
to be a lovely event, a few facts
cleaned here and there will be of
interest. The parade will form
at the grounds at half past one
o'clock, and the review will take
place there. Three prizes will
be awarded. one for the carriage
class. another for the single trap.
and the last, should arouse the
enthusiasm of the children, being
prize for the pony trap.
Heartiest cooperation should be
given by all. and the reputation
of Colum bus should be more
than sustained by the beauty of
a parade which has been receiv-
ed with such favor in other
cities.
