local Republican leaders have tried to
treat all districts alike in the matter OF
campaign demonstra tion and torchlight
parade.
Last evening the First ward was invad-
ed by the kharki clad processionlsts,
marching companies being in line.
The parade. under the auspices OF the
Stiness Guards OF Brown University was
one OF the finest demonstrations thus far
witnessed In the present campaign. The
presence OF marching men in the staid
and quiet streets OF the First ward was
so unusual that the sidewalks all along
the route OF march were literally tsmmed
with eager spectators.
Owing 10 the late arrival OF the deleEa-
tions from more distant points. the
Saylesville Cadets and others. the parade
was delayed In starting.
