At Orpheum
Theater.

A great crowd of Republicans gather
ed in and about the Orpheu1n theater
last night to listen to the last arguments
, on campaign issues and candidates. The

breaking capacity, while the addresses
were excellent throughout Many tell
ing points in favor of the Republican
party and the administration were made,
and many equally telling ones thrust into
the thin policies of the Democratic and
Home Rule parties
The principal speakers were Delegate
Kalanianaole and Stephen Desha. The
address of the latter was magnificent

vote straight. i

DEMOCRACY
At AAL.A PARK
Strong Appeals By
Leaders of the
Party.

Last evening Aala Park was the
scene of great political activity. The
Republicans were at one end and the
Democrats at the ether, withsa a Home
Rule meeting in the centers 4 Hulas
seemed TO be the order of efeay. or
rather night. The Republicans had a
couple of old time dancers from War
amaze and a quartet of girls. AT the
Democratic meeting things We're not so
elaborate, the performers being vol;n-
teers. The hit of the evening was, a
young dancing boy about five who GER
tainIy showed remarkable ability for
his age. He hulaed for the Democrats.
The speeches were all a general le-
hash of those already given. The first
Democratic spea ker was Mrs Fuahi,
who came all the way from Wai3naeI
to attend the last rally She said that
no party could blackguard the others
for having men who had shifted from
one party to another as the shifting
was not confined to any one party.
She then sailed in to young Kalauoka-
lani for running down Wilcox after he
was dead. Next she went for the Re
publicans and Home Rulers, saying
that the Home Rulers were chasing a
rainbow. There was no National Home
Rule party and they would never ac-
complish anything. The Democratic
party is the one that regards the labor
ing men ard should be supported. The
woman then eulogized Iaukea and said
he was the only one that would fulfill
his promises.

SHOOTS WOMAN AND
ENDS HIS OWN LIFE
Charles Brown Fatally Wounds
Mrs. Pauline WiesIer and
Kills Himself

Charles Brown, a laborer, killed him
self and it is believed fatally injured
Mrs. Pauline Wiesler, a middle-aged
woman at the entrance to the home
of Mrs Wiesler, 1920 Fifth street
southeast, Minneapolis, at 1880 last
night.
When the woman refused the re-
peated importunity that she marry
Brown, he pulled from his pocket
22-caIiber revolver and fired a bullet
into the back of her neck, infiicting
a wound that is expected to prove
mortal. Turning the weapon upon
himself, Brown put a bullet into his
brain. Brown was dead when the
police patrol wagon arrived, and the
woman was hurried to the city hos
pital, where her injuries were pro-
nounced fatal
For some time Brown had desired
to marry Mrs. Wiesler. He was, on
Oct II, released from the workhouse,
where he served thirty days for threat
ening to kill Mrs. Wiesler because she
would not marry him. Previous to this
confinement he had worked at 519
Washington avenue south, as hostler,
and had boarded with Mrs. Wiesler.
He often insisted that she marry him,
and on one occasion he attempted to
attack her. For this he was arrested
and committed.
Early last evening Brown went to
the Wiesler home, and being told that
Mrs. Wiesler was at the hall of the
Volunteers of America, proceeded there.
He met Mrs. Wiesler and together they
walked to the Wiesler home, a distance
of two miles. On the way he insisted
that she consent to marry him and she
refused. Just as the couple reached
the Wiesler home and the woman was
on the point of passing inside, he pulled
the revolver and fired the two shots.
Mrs. Wiesler is the divorced wife of
Joseph Wiesler, the legal separation
having occurred four years ago. She
is the mother of eight children. the
Oldest of whom is Mrs. Howard Valen-
tine, who recently acquired considerable
notoriety through her efforts to iden-
tify body taken from the river as that
of her husband. She eventually con-
cluded that she had made a mistake,
and the body was buried as an un-
known.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29-A statement
was given out today by the Democratic
national committee after a consultation
between Thomas Taggart, chairman,
William F. Sheehan, chairman of the
executive committee and Delaney
Nicoll, vice chairman for the East. 1t
says:
I'VE have made no formal statement
concerning the political situation be-
fore this time because the materials
upon which alone a correct judgment
could be formed were not at hand.
Our efforts during the past three
months have been devoted to the task
of organizing and harmonizing the
party in the states hitherto considered
doubtful by reason of former dissen-
sions.
Canvass Complete
"That work is now finished, and it is
possible for the first time to reach a
conclusion based upon systematic
canvass, which can never be satisfac
torily made until after organization is
completed and the campaign has well
progressed.
In every state and in all sections
Democrats have buried their differ
ences and are working harmoniously
and enthusiastically for the ticket Our
canvass shows that scarcely anywhere
is there trace of the dissensions
The Saint Paul globe., 1904-10-24

which for the past eight years has
unhappily divided the party. In the
states of New York, New Jersey, Con-
necticut, Indiana, Maryland. Delaware
and West Virginia, and in many of the
Western states our organization is now
more complete and effective than ever
before in the history of the party
State Tickets Strong
Candidates for governor who stand
for the very high type of citizenship
and represent popular local Democratic
issues in all the doubtful states are
greatly aiding the national ticket by.
their energetic campaign.
Our canvass shows that we shall
certainly carry by good majorities the
states of New York, New Jersey, Con-
nectieut, Maryland, Delaware. West
Virginia and Indiana, and that in addi-
ton to these, electoral votes we shall
have the majority if not all of the cleo
toral votes of the Rocky mountain
states. 1t is impossible at this juno
ture to predict the outcome in Wiseon-
sin.
Illinois must also be classed in the
doubtful column, for although at this
moment our canvass there is imper
feet it is sufficiently advanced to indi
cate an unmistakable Republican de-
fection."
